The County Inspector repairing the machine shows which irony of technology?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The machine controlling education itself depends on a human expert

The governing idea is technological dependence: a system presented as superior and self-sufficient may still require human knowledge to operate or repair it. In the story, Margie’s mechanical teacher stops functioning properly, and the County Inspector has to open it, adjust its Geography sector, and restore its operation. This creates an irony because the machine is supposed to replace ordinary teaching, yet it cannot maintain itself without a human expert. Option B states this contradiction precisely. Option A is wrong because the repair proves that the machine does depend on a person. Option C concerns the history of books, not the repair, while option D falsely describes old schools, which did have human teachers.
