Answer:

b. to illustrate how much faster it is to look up things on the internet

Step-by-step explanation:

whenever you are using the internet you are able to find sources and answers much easier because you are able to switch tabs and webpages at just a click of a button rather than having to have multiple books open at the same time and having to comb through all the information manually
