PrepTest 54, Section 2, Question 8
A clear advantage of digital technology over traditional printing is that digital documents, being patterns of electronic signals rather than patterns of ink on paper, do not generate waste in the course of their production and use. However, because patterns of electronic signals are necessarily ephemeral, a digital document can easily be destroyed and lost forever.

The statements above best illustrate which one of the following generalizations?
A property of a technology may constitute an advantage in one set of circumstances and a disadvantage in others.
What at first appears to be an advantage of a technology may create more problems than it solves.
It is more important to be able to preserve information than it is for information to be easily accessible.
Innovations in document storage technologies sometimes decrease, but never eliminate, the risk of destroying documents.
Advances in technology can lead to increases in both convenience and environmental soundness.
