Windows 10: How does Magnifier - read feature determine what to highlight in a webpage?

Are there any relevant documentation out there I can read to make sense of how the reading and highlighting works? Here are some examples:Example 1:When Magnifier-read fea

Or also you can press the keys “Windows+Esc” and the magnifier will be closed.
