Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 23 to 30.

The invention of the airplane was the result of years of experimentation and determination by pioneers like the Wright brothers. In 1903, Orville and Wilbur Wright made the first successful powered flight in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, changing the world forever. Their invention wasn't the first attempt at flight, but it was the first to achieve controlled, sustained flight with a powered engine. This breakthrough opened up new possibilities for transportation, communication, and global trade, marking the start of a new era.
Before the airplane, people dreamed of flying, but their attempts were limited to hot air balloons and gliders, which could only float or glide for short distances. In contrast, the Wright brothers took a different approach by focusing on aerodynamics and propulsion. They designed a lightweight engine and a plane with a strong, flexible wing design that allowed it to stay in the air longer. Their first flight lasted only 12 seconds, but it marked a major milestone in human history, showing that powered flight was possible.
The airplane quickly proved to be more than just a curiosity. It transformed travel, making it possible to cross vast distances in a matter of hours rather than days or weeks. By the 1920s, commercial air travel began to take off, while the aviation industry grew rapidly. The airplane also revolutionized military strategy, enabling faster transportation of troops and equipment, which changed the dynamics of warfare.
Today, airplanes are essential to modern life, connecting people and businesses across the globe. The Wright brothers' invention laid the foundation for modern aviation, and their vision of human flight continues to inspire innovation. Airplanes have shrunk the world, making it possible to travel farther and faster than ever before, forever changing how we experience the world.

Entertainment has undergone a massive transformation in recent years, largely due to the rise of streaming services.

Today, services like Netflix, Disney+, and Amazon Prime Video have made it possible to watch anything, anytime, without the need for traditional cable or satellite television. With just an internet connection, viewers can access a vast library of content from across the globe.
[I] One of the most significant changes brought about by streaming is the shift in how people consume content.
