According to Margie, what would children do in a real school?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Meet each other and learn together
The governing concept is Margie’s growing awareness that education can be a shared social experience. Because she studies alone at home with a mechanical teacher, she imagines that children in a real school would meet one another, sit together, and learn as a group. This possibility attracts her because it offers companionship and interaction that her routine lacks. Therefore, option A is correct. The story gives no basis for saying that children slept all day or cleaned machines, so B and C are clearly wrong. Option D is also the opposite of the old system, where a human teacher taught the class directly. Margie’s imagination reveals her longing for human contact.
