Why would it be wrong to call technology only bad in the story?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because it helps with home study and instant checking
In the story, the mechanical teacher teaches each child at home and can check homework and responses immediately. Thus, technology offers benefits such as convenience and learning at an individual pace, although Tommy and Margie miss the social experience of old schools. Option C is incorrect because mechanical schooling does not provide classmates to study with. Exam tip: In questions on technology, identify both its advantages and its limitations.
