Hint:

When identifying a “concern” in a comprehension question, focus on the negative or cautionary aspects mentioned in the passage rather than the benefits.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: Understanding the passage. 
The passage discusses two viewpoints regarding the role of technology in education. One side argues that technology improves learning by providing more resources and interactive tools. The other side, however, expresses concerns that technology may lead to less meaningful interaction and superficial engagement among students. 
Step 2: Identifying the concern. 
The concern mentioned in the passage is that technology might reduce the quality of face-to-face interactions, which are crucial for effective learning experiences. This aligns directly with option (D). 
Step 3: Eliminating incorrect options. 
(A) talks about a benefit, not a concern. 
(B) contradicts the concern stated in the passage. 
(C) also describes a positive aspect, not the problem discussed. 
Therefore, option (D) accurately represents the concern mentioned in the passage. 

Final Answer: (D) Technology may reduce the quality of face-to-face interactions.
