Read the passage, then answer: Which of the following would make the most suitable title for this passage? Aisha's class visits a museum with a new exhibit about ancient writing. At the entrance, a guide shows them clay tablets marked with tiny wedge shapes. The guide explains that these marks are cuneiform, one of the earliest writing systems, used thousands of years ago. At first, Aisha thinks the symbols look like random scratches. Then the guide demonstrates how a scribe presses a reed into soft clay to make each mark. The angle of the reed creates different shapes. Once the tablet dries, the message can last for centuries. The exhibit includes a game where students try writing their names using wedge marks. Aisha discovers that writing is not only about letters. It is about recording ideas so they can travel through time. She imagines a merchant tracking goods, a farmer counting grain, or a student practicing words. Before leaving, Aisha reads a sign that says writing changes civilizations. It allows laws, stories, and plans to be shared beyond one person's memory. On the bus ride home, Aisha notices how often she writes without thinking. The museum makes her see writing as an invention that connects people across generations.
