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

English
1 answer:
valentinak56 [21]3 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.

Witch event in border is an example of a flashback
geniusboy [140]
Hi. First, you have used the wrong spelling of, "which". A witch is a character  ;)

Okay, back to your question. One example of a flashback in the story, "Borders" is when the mom talks about driving to Salt Lake City to visit her daughter.

If you read the story, you might find some other examples. Hope this helps.

Take care,
Diana
