Read the following passage and choose the best answer

III) Read the following passage and choose the best answer: (2ms) 

Computing is now at the same stage as printing was when the first printing presses were used. Before  printing presses were invented, only rich people like kings and dukes could afford to buy books. Often these  people were unable to read and hadn’t enough time to learn. In any case, the books were so big that it was difficult  for anyone to relax with a book as we do today. They wanted booked because they were expensive and there was  something magical about them. Only a few people were able to write, and it took an extremely long time to write  a book. Monks and other people who could write said ordinary people could not learn to read. 

The position with computers is very similar today. A few years ago, computers were very large and  expensive. Business managers and rich people ordered them but they didn’t know how to use them. In many 

countries, however, the situation has now completely changed. Lots of people not only own microcomputer but  also know how to use them.

  1. Before printing presses were invented, only rich people like kings and dukes could afford to buy books. (This sentence directly states what happened.)
  2. Books were wanted before printing presses were invented because they were expensive and there was something magical about them. (This sentence mentions the two reasons why books were desired.)
  3. A common feature of a book and a computer is that they were both expensive and limited to a small number of people before becoming more affordable and accessible. (This answer combines the information about the high cost and limited access to books before printing presses and computers before widespread use.)
  4. The situation that has thoroughly changed nowadays is computer ownership and usage. (This sentence highlights the dramatic shift from large, expensive computers used by a select few to widespread microcomputer ownership and knowledge.)
