Technology plays a significant role in our daily lives, influencing how we communicate, work, and access information. With the rise of smart phones and social media platforms, connectivity has become seamless, allowing people to stay connected with friends and family around the globe. However, technology's pervasive presence also raises concerns about privacy, security, and its impact on mental health. As we navigate the digital age, it's essential to strike a balance between leveraging technology for its benefits while being mindful of its potential drawbacks.
According to the passage, what is essential in navigating the digital age?
- Ignoring the potential drawbacks of technology
- Leveraging technology without caution
- Striking a balance between benefits and drawbacks
- Disconnecting from social media platforms
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C - Striking a balance between benefits and drawbacks
The last sentence says it is essential to strike a balance between leveraging technology for its benefits and being mindful of its drawbacks. Ignoring the drawbacks or using technology without caution is the opposite of that balance, and the passage never advises disconnecting from social media.
