Which weakness of education is shown in Margie’s experience?

Lack of human interaction

The correct answer is C, “lack of human interaction.” Margie receives regular lessons from a mechanical teacher, but she studies alone and has no classmates with whom she can discuss ideas, cooperate, or share the ordinary emotions of school life. The machine can deliver information and tests, yet it cannot provide genuine companionship, empathy, or the flexible conversation associated with a human teacher and a group of learners. This is the central weakness revealed through her experience. Option A is the opposite of the situation, while B and D are not problems presented in the story. The chapter does not reject every use of technology; rather, it questions education that becomes efficient but socially empty. Therefore C best expresses the limitation.

This is a Class 9 English question. Chapter: The Fun They Had. Topic: the importance of human teachers.
