The scene was a plain, bare, monotonous vault of a school-room, and the speaker's square forefinger emphasized his observations

by underscoring every sentence with a line on the schoolmaster's sleeve. The emphasis was helped by the speaker's square wall of a forehead, which had his eyebrows for its base, while his eyes found commodious cellarage in two dark caves, overshadowed by the wall…
The speaker's obstinate carriage, square coat, square legs, square shoulders, —nay, his very neckcloth, trained to take him by the throat with an unaccommodating grasp, like a stubborn fact, as it was, —all helped the emphasis.

"In this life, we want nothing but Facts, sir; nothing but Facts!"

The speaker, and the schoolmaster, and the third grown person present, all backed a little, and swept with their eyes the inclined plane of little vessels then and there arranged in order, ready to have imperial gallons of facts poured into them until they were full to the brim.

What does the passage imply about children and learning?
Children are usually rowdy so teachers need to be strict disciplinarians.
Children are overly passive in school and therefore do not learn well.
Children who learn facts and conform will likely succeed in life.
Children would be best served if allowed to develop as individuals

What is the main idea of this passage?
KonstantinChe [14]
I think the answer is B. It is not A, for it IS mandatory as it says that in the text. It is not C, because it is not said in the text, and it is an opinion. And it is not D, yet it is true. It has not been spoken of in the text. Therefore, B is your best bet. Hope this helps!
