Q.
Read the statement carefully, and choose the best answer.
Human beings made the first metal objects about 7,000 years ago. First they used copper but it was not very strong. Then bronze and iron were used. With bronze and iron they could make different kinds of objects: weapons, jewels, statutes, etc.
The wheel, the sail and the plough were invented in the Middle East about 5000 years ago. We still use them today. The wheel had different applications: for transportation being used in carts pulled by bullocks or in pottery wheels to make better ceramic pieces.
The sail was used in ships to make a better use of the force of the wind. The plough substituted the hoe to cultivate the land. They could work faster and in greater areas.
