Human
technology developed from the first stone tools about two and a half million
years ago. At the beginning, the rate of development was slow. Hundreds of
thousands of years passed without much change. Today, new technologies are
reported daily on television and in newspapers.
This paragraph best supports the statement that
|
|
|
stone tools were not
really technology.
|
|
|
stone tools were in use
for two and a half million years
|
|
|
there is no way to know
when stone tools first came into use.
|
|
|
In today's world, new
technologies are constantly being developed
|
|
|
none of the latest
technologies is as significant as the development of stone tools.
|
|
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
The last sentence states that new
technologies are reported daily, and this implies that new technologies are
being constantly developed. There is no support for choice a.With regard to
choice b, stone tools were first used two and a half million years ago, but
they were not neessarily in use all that time. Choice c is clearly wrong since
the paragraph states when stone tools first came into use. Although some may
agree that choice e is true, the author of the paragraph does not give support
for this opinion.
