Directions: Read the passage given below and select the inference(s) that hold true based on the facts in the passage. Passage: Technology has drastically transformed the way we communicate. Social media platforms allow instant connection across the world, while video calls make it possible to see loved ones despite physical distance. However, over-reliance on technology has also led to reduced face-to-face interaction, causing concerns about weakening personal relationships. Experts believe that a balanced use of technology can strengthen communication rather than harm it. Instead of replacing human interaction, technology should be seen as a supportive tool that adds convenience. Inferences: I. Technology has eliminated the need for human interaction. II. Social media and video calls have made communication faster and easier. III. Excessive use of technology does not affect personal relationships.
