Question

[112]. Read the following passage carefully:

Passage: "Long before phones reached every village, the postman was the link between families and the world outside. He walked or cycled for miles in heat and rain, carrying letters from soldiers, money orders from migrant workers and admission cards for students. People waited for his knock, and bad news and good news both arrived in his bag. Today instant messages have replaced most letters, yet the postal system still carries parcels, pension payments and documents to places where the internet is weak. The postman's story reminds us that communication is not only about speed; it is also about reaching the last person reliably." What can be inferred from the passage?

1.
A communication system is valuable not only for speed but for how reliably it reaches the most remote person.
2.
When a healthy habit becomes part of daily routine, its benefits are likely to last longer than a one-time medicine distribution.
3.
Clearing a diverse forest for a single crop is likely to dry streams and drive away species that depended on variety.
4.
A teacher who encourages questioning is likely to shape a student's scientific career more than one who only rewards memorised answers.
