Read the passage given below and then answer the questions given below the passage. Some words may be highlighted for your attention. Read carefully.

With the growth of humankind, technology has simultaneously grown enormously especially in the past few decades. Technology has been linked with our lives to a great extent, our purchasing, communicating, traveling, learning, living and more so has been drastically affected. A simple example to look into technological advancement with which many can relate is mobile phones and how immensely they have been developed because a phone used in the 19^th century must have even been stopped production in the present times. The changing strides in the mobile phone industry can be primarily associated with higher demand and innovation from the people, resulting in today’s era where mobiles are considered to be person’s lifeline.

Technological advances have majorly been about increasing efficiency by saving time and cost of the people and this criteria is the driving force for industries and organizations. This advancement created and fueled by humans inherently has both a negative and a positive side. For positive impacts, it has created better living standards, achieved better health benefits, simplified human performing tasks, been expanding educational area to greater strides and such. For negative impacts, it is safe to say that we have hugely degraded the environment which may lead to our own doom. It is a “Terminator”- the movie- reference which depicts how robots, created by humans, slowly rise to wipe out the human race to dominate over the planet. It may seem to be unrealistic but at the speed that we are moving, it might as well be real.
