Why refer to langan’s qualifications as “superbly qualified”

English
1 answer:
valentinak56 [21]4 years ago
7 0

In the book "Outliers: The Story of Success" by Malcolm Gladwell, the author tells the story of Christopher Langan. Langan was about to participate in a game show called "1 vs. 100," which tested the contestant's knowledge of trivia against that of 100 random people in the "mob." The author argues that Langan was "superbly qualified" for this task because of his incredible intelligence.

Some of the reasons why Langan was considered brilliant are:

  • An IQ of one ninety-five.
  • He was speaking by the age of six months.
  • He got a perfect score on his SATs, even though he fell asleep during the test.

What was peculiar about the woman he saw in the beginning of this time travel in The Time Machine?
givi [52]

The peculiar thing about the woman the Time Traveller saw in the beginning of this time travel is that she shot across the room "like a rocket."

<h3>The woman in "The Time Machine"</h3>

In the novel "The Time Machine," the Time Traveller begins his journey through time using a machine he has invented. When he starts the machine, he sees a woman, Mrs. Watchett, come into the room and walk across it. She does not seem to notice him.

However, from the Time Traveller's perspective, the woman seems to shoot across the room "like a rocket." That is because everything around him seems to speed up as the machine takes him through time.

With the information above in mind, we can select option C as the correct answer. The woman shot across the room "like a rocket."
