Answer 1

B. the ability to construct tall buildings has increased greatly over time

Step-by-step explanation:

In the article, Marvels of the Modern World, the author under the section "How High Can We Go?" gives a brief rundown from the first tallest building in the world to the current tallest building in the world. According to her, the first tallest building in the world was the Empire State building completed in 1931 in the United States. This was followed by the twin towers, the World Trade Center, the Sears Towers, the Petronas Towers, the Tapei 101, and today the Burj Khalifa in Dubai.

As time progressed, the author noted that better designs have evolved to aid the construction of these buildings.
