Question 10 • F26 World History A - LA

What can be concluded about the long-term effects of Alexander Graham Bell’s invention?

Answer
A
It increased literacy rates by encouraging people to communicate through the written word.
B
It encouraged the development of new cities and trades by allowing people to travel farther and faster.
C
It improved the economy by increasing the number of hours people could work each day.
D
It enabled families to remain in close contact even as they moved across the country and across the world.

Explanation

Alexander Graham Bell’s invention was the telephone, which let people communicate over long distances without traveling to meet. Over time, this made it easier for families to stay in touch even when they moved far away, including across countries and oceans. The telephone did not primarily encourage written communication or make travel faster, so D is the best conclusion.
