Sample Answer
✔ The printing press was a very important invention because it helped share information with many people. Before the printing press, books were made by hand and very expensive. Gutenberg's invention made books cheaper and easier to produce. This affected society by allowing more people to learn and read. Digital technology has also evolved and changed how we read books today. People now read e-books on their phones or tablets. I think a ban is not a good strategy because it stops people from learning new things. The printing press changed the world by making knowledge available to everyone.
