    Of all of the characters in the first two chapters, who is the only person that thinks that the Time Traveler could be telling the truth?  - ProProfs

    Of all of the characters in the first two chapters, who is the only person that thinks that the Time Traveler could be telling the truth? 

    • The doctor

    • The psychologist

    • The narrator

    • The editor

    Correct Answer
    A. The narrator
    Explanation
    The narrator is the only person in the first two chapters who believes that the Time Traveler could be telling the truth. This can be inferred from the fact that the narrator expresses curiosity and interest in the Time Traveler's story, even though he is initially skeptical. The other characters, such as the doctor, the psychologist, and the editor, either dismiss the Time Traveler's claims or try to rationalize them. Therefore, the narrator's open-mindedness and willingness to consider the possibility of time travel make him the only person who thinks that the Time Traveler could be telling the truth.
