Flowers for Algernon Writting Homework

What Dr. Strauss mean is that the learning of Charlie Gordon is extraordinary. His effort was proportion to the effort a normal person would have to put in to learn the theory of relativity on his own, without any others' help. For me, personally I disagreee with that statement. The efforts of learning to read and write, in my opinion, wouldn't have to take the same effort as a normal person learning a complex scientific theory, even though you're a person with the IQ of 68. A kid may have a much lower amount of IQ, but they did manage to learn how to read and write. I, for example, learned to read and write while I was in kindergarten. By the end of the years of kindergarten, I was able to read and write short passages myself without any helps. In conclusion, in my opinion,  to say that Charlie Gordon's progress of learning to read and write proportional to the progress of a normal person learning a complex scientific theory, isn't right
