The answer that makes the most sense is "fit the meter"

Shakespeare's sonnets are written predominantly in a meter called iambic pentameter, a rhyme scheme in which each sonnet line consists of ten syllables. The syllables are divided into five pairs called iambs or iambic feet. An iamb is a metrical unit made up of one unstressed syllable followed by one stressed syllable, so it makes sense that he would want his sonnets to fit and sound good read aloud.

adoni [48]

Answer:

The author’s purpose in this paragraph is to <u>explain the need for faster technology in cryptanalysis.</u>

Silicon chips may help but that is not enough for it can change. Rather, he argues for the need for a <em>"technology that is billions of times faster than current computers"</em>. And if scientists were to build a <em>"quantum computer"</em>, it will definitely be a huge success for them for <em>"it would be able to perform calculations with such enormous speed that it would make a modern supercomputer look like a broken abacus".</em> Thus, the<u> whole passage is to explain why cryptoanalysis requires faster technology. </u>
