Answer:
Explanation:
Most people read in the traditional way, but speed readers claim to have a method that is faster.
This is the correct answer because speed readers are claiming that they have a method that is faster, and it is implied that most people cannot read this fast.
Most people cannot train their eyes to speed read, but some people can figure out how to read more quickly.
This is wrong because the passage never stated that people cannot train their eyes to read more quickly.
Speed readers can understand a lot more text with each glace at the page than most other readers can
While it is mentioned that speed readers can read quicker that other people, the main goal was that companies were proclaiming that they could train people.
Companies continue to try to sell speed reading programs to people who hope to read much faster
This is almost correct, but it is never said in the passage that people WANT to read much faster, just that they can't.
Answer:
Reldresal cannot believe that someone like Gulliver could live in the same world as him, giving no chance to other realities.
Explanation:
Reldresal is a character from Gulliver's Travels, a book by Irish writer Jonathan Swift. He is known by his satirical works. Satire is defined as the use of irony or sarcasm to criticize people's vices in a political context.
Gulliver's Travels narrates the man character's trips to different places, such as Lilliput and Blefuscu, which were two rival islands. Reldresal is Gulliver's friend in Lilliput, and he is the principal secretary for private affairs.
In this case, the quote in the question satirizes small-mindedness since the secretary cannot believe that something bigger than the reality he knew could be happening in the same world. He even says that a hundred mortals like Gulliver would destroy Lilliput in a short time; meaning that they could destroy everything very fast. This way, Reldresal shows that he doesn't give a chance to different realities.
