We read the text about buying a car online.
The text outlines steps to shop for a car online.
It mentions: "Avoiding face-to-face interactions will reduce unwanted pressure from salespeople."
It also says: "Sales managers can be pushy. Doing this step online can make it easier to push back."

Evaluate the options

We compare the options to the text using Reading Comprehension.

• Option 1: "It is easier to find the right car to buy."

The text mentions researching and browsing, but does not state it is easier than in person.

• Option 2: "It is a way to avoid the pressure to buy."

The text explicitly states that avoiding face-to-face interactions reduces unwanted pressure and makes it easier to push back against pushy sales managers. This is supported by Textual Evidence.

The text says "complete the paperwork" but does not say online shopping simplifies it.

• Option 4: "It is faster than buying a car in person."

The text does not compare the speed of the two methods.
