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.

The ruling I would make on the charge of treason against John Brown, is guilty. Since the belief in transcendentalism is basically to be living on your own and not living under the government many are able to see how this may be illegal and wrong to the government. This also just gives people the opportunity to do whatever they want whether or not it is good or bad. Also, John Brown was convicted of treason due to the murder of five men and inciting a slave insurrection. I understand where John Brown was coming from, in the fact that slavery is wrong and should have been abolished. But there comes a time where we cannot recreate the actions of our enemies to retaliate, we must bring about a peaceful measure to combat these problems or else we become no better than our enemies. Then there was Ralph Waldo Emerson who just so happened to be a transcendentalist. He believed he did not have to live under the government and pay taxes and follow their society rules. He wrote poetry and he was a essayist he led the transcendentalist movement of the mid-19th century. I don't think transcendentalism is the answer to our problems with the government, it just makes it seem like we are acting like children and pretending the problem isn't there or choosing to ignore everything around us and act like we live in a bubble. This is why I believe John Brown should be guilty.

i just added more words to help reach the 250 word count :) hope this helps!

using a multitude of space fillers speaking loudly enough for everyone to hear knowing what he is going to say so as to avoid space fillers

<h3>What is space fillers?</h3>

a short, unimportant article written to fill space in a magazine or newspaper

"Actually" is merely a pause word that a user inserts into a sentence while pondering what to say next or to emphasize the obvious. However, the obvious does not require reinforcement.

Fillers are composed of sugar molecules or hyaluronic acids, collagens (which can come from pigs, cows, cadavers, or be generated in a laboratory), the person's own transplanted fat, and biosynthetic polymers.

Fillers can help people understand what you're saying.

Perhaps the most obvious effect, fillers show that a speaker is still actively speaking – that they still want the airtime.
