Question

5. Why was the literacy rate low even after the development of writing?​

Answer 1

$\sf \pmb{Answer :}$

Some of the causes of low literacy in adults are:

• Undiagnosed learning disabilities.

• Hearing or vision loss.

• Lack of a role model, i.e. no one in the family or household stresses reading or education.

• Poverty or a focus on survival needs rather than education.
