View question detailsWhat was Margie's study like with the mechanical teacher?
Correct answer: B
Margie’s lessons with the mechanical teacher take place privately in a room at home. She does not sit with other children, share ideas with classmates, or enjoy the lively activities of a common school. The machine presents her lessons individually, and her work is checked in the same isolated setting. This makes her education feel separate from other people.
Therefore, option B is correct: her study was lonely. The idea is not that she never learned or that she travelled outside; she continued to receive regular lessons. The contrast with the old kind of school shows that human teachers and classmates can make learning more social, active, and enjoyable.
