<p>did anyone get two no errors in a row as well???</p>
<p>@Interficio, Are you sure? You didn’t have a writing section 10?</p>
<p>for no errors, I got the “little or no” one, the one by maxine hong (who was in an apush video I watched!), and the chunnel one in the same section</p>
<p>Martin Espada’s poetry.
I can’t remember the content of my choice, but I put E, I believe…
it was an improving sentences question in section 10</p>
<p>no, I had 2 NE in all in IDSE section;however, I did not put no error for question number 18. I am not sure if it was NE or D?</p>
<p>I had writing section 10, but I swear I never saw that question and I know I answered all ten questions. But maybe I’m just being forgetful. Can’t say it’s never happened</p>
<p>what did you guys put for the origami question?</p>
<p>For the Origami question I believe I chose (E), whatever that answer choice was</p>
<p>the one with “origami as” which didnt have the awkward hanging participle at the end</p>
<p>so is it 2 or 3 no errors</p>
<p>hey!
i have 2 quick questions:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>something about “perspectively”? i said this was wrong because i think the word they were looking for was “prospectively”</p></li>
<li><p>additionally, the one about the English Channel being the “most visible” symbol of unity? i think “visible” was the error since the CHUNNEL was UNDER the English Channel. and we all know that the english channel is underwater, so how can the chunnel be the most visible!!??!?</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Per Interficio’s request in another thread, I’m bringing up the Chunnel question again here. Yay! :P</p>
<p>If I can remember it correctly, the sentence was something like “One of the most prominent symbols of increased European unity was the “Chunnel” tunnel under the English Channel which took six years to complete.”</p>
<p>To complete was underlined, and it seems most people chose either that as the error or no error. I chose no error, but I’m not that confident about it.</p>
<p>In my view, there’s no reason “to complete” would be grammatically incorrect. “To be completed” would work (although it’s unnecessarily wordy and in the passive voice), but there’s no need to change the sentence, in my opinion.</p>
<p>Discuss!</p>
<p>EDIT: Looks like classicgirll brought it up before me.
I don’t think it’s the “most visible” option because that can be used as a metaphor/idiom, as it is being used in the sentence, regardless of whether one can actually see it.</p>
<p>Though I did laugh a little at the irony of that description while reading the question.</p>
<p>^^
Visible is used in the figurative sense, not the literal sense</p>
<p>YES!
i love you buckeyes.
i just posted something about the same question!</p>
<p>by the way, it was “most visible” not “most prominent”</p>
<p>additionally, the one about the English Channel being the “most visible” symbol of unity? i think “visible” was the error since the CHUNNEL was UNDER the English Channel. and we all know that the english channel is underwater, so how can the chunnel be the most visible!!??!?</p>
<p>yeah my worry was that maybe increasing sounded better to me, rather than increased. I think it’s no error. I never considered to be completed. I don’t see the need for a passive, and it certainly does con-volute which is a big no-no</p>
<p>that’s so awkward.
i usually get like 1-2 wrong in writing.
trust me, i know my writing.</p>
<p>i really don’t think it was no error…
blah whatever.
i don’t want to argue over something we’re both unsure of.</p>
<p>I agree that visible was used in the figurative sense. Since “most visible” was underlined, I imagine they were looking to see you knew your superlatives.</p>
<p>You know what made me laugh?
The duck that was wearing a blue dress.</p>
<p>visible is figurative. The world knows of its existence and so, it is “visible” and not obscure to the world, and thereby acts as a symbol of increased (increasing still sounds better, but changes meaning) european unity.</p>
<p>that’s funny coming from a “penguin” ![]()
hahah</p>
<p>seriously. we need some humour. stop stressing over everything.!</p>
<p>Visible most nearly means apparent in that context</p>
