Slaves were not allowed to read because they would find new information, read signs that may be directions if they wanted to try and escape, and slaves could eventually arrive to another state to flee from their captors and able to know if they made it to safety. Don't forget that slaves would be capable of many things and become very smart, which would be dangerous to plantation owners.

If it is faster than anyone else's car than you can infer that stupendous means really good cause of the way it is used.
