1. Which invention do you think is more important, the printing
press or the light bulb? Why?
I think the ________ is more important than _______. Here’s why:
First, __________________. Second, _________________. Third, __________________________________________.

17
Production
1. Which invention do you think is more important, the printing press or the
light bulb? Why?
I think the printing press is more important than the light bulb. Here’s why:
First, books became much cheaper and easier to make than before. This let more people learn to read and share ideas faster than ever. Second, it changed the most basic way humans learn. Without it, schools, science and even modern inventions like the light bulb might not exist today. Third, the printing press spread knowledge wider and more powerfully. It helped create the most important changes in history.
In short, the printing press didn’t just make life better—it made progress itself possible. That’s why I believe it’s the more important invention.

Production
(2) Which invention do you think is the most important? Why?
I believe computer is the most important invention. Here’s why:
First, computers let us study, work, communicate and create—all with one machine. Second, they changed the world faster than any other invention. For example, students from different places can get education online more easily. Most importantly, computers create new possibilities. Without them, we wouldn’t have the Internet, modern science or even self-driving cars!
In short, computers touch more parts of our lives and drive the biggest changes. That’s why they’re the most important inventions.
