Q8: 'The History of Writing' - Read the passage aloud

Writing began thousands of years ago with symbols carved into stone. Ancient Egyptians used hieroglyphs, while Mesopotamians wrote on clay tablets. Over time, alphabets were developed, making writing more accessible. Today, we write with pens, keyboards, and even voice commands. Writing records history, shares ideas, and expresses emotions. In school, students learn to write essays, stories, and reports. Writing is a skill that grows with practice. It’s not just about grammar—it’s about communication, creativity, and connection.
