All the Critical Reading Questions compiled

<p>She lived on Volunteer Street before moving to the prosperous town of...oh, can't remember the name. Are you thinking of doing a book content search on Amazon to determine the novel?</p>

<p>Your damn skippy.</p>

<p>Holy crap, just remembered another question out of the friggin blue. </p>

<ol>
<li>What does the "death" mentioned refer to ? (neglect, some other choices, I put neglect)(CCR)</li>
</ol>

<p>32 down, 8 to go. I probably don't remember these 8 because they were not as hard compared to ones discussed, but just my opinion.</p>

<p>Assuming I didn't f up on these last 8 question, I know I got perfect on SC and Short Reading Passages by checking answers on this board, I will have 4 wrong total on CR, if God is willing. What would 4 wrong total translate to CR do you think? Practice test on CB online says 4 wrong = 740, but will this curve for CR be slightly generous by like 10 points, or harsher by 10 points or so?</p>

<p>i put motivation for elixir...ahh there are about 4 q's that i totally forgot what i put down for them.</p>

<p>haithman...</p>

<p>are you sudanese? your name haitham said sounds like a sudanese name, and in the past you said you are part african and arab</p>

<p>ugandan and yemeni</p>

<p>what is 8 wrong and 2 omits on CR? (if god willing)</p>

<p>whoa, that is awesome haithman, I am part northern sudanese, western sudanese, and saudi...Were practically brothers :)</p>

<p>Oh yeah, alf4, you can expect from 660 to 680. 680 if curve is slightly generous, 660 if not generous, and 670 if neither.</p>

<p>ouch i know of only 2 i could possibly get wrong on CR:)</p>

<p>btw im pretty sure it's not convene. convene is more like to gather. to call forth is basically the exact same thing as to summon, which is what it means in the context...a lot of those "what does this mean in the passage" questions are basically asking for definitions.</p>

<p>yeah bro we def are. you have IM or something?</p>

<p>Yeah man, do you? Mine is 'HichamAsad88'.</p>

<p>how many questions was the theather/culture one, i think i missed all of them</p>

<p>it was angela and the womans name was something like Verremel or Deverrel something sorta similar..yeh im trying to remember the towns name czu they said something like a (town's name) person wouldnt talk to us at the salon..or the girl she passed by or something</p>

<p>"How does the purpose of passage two compare to passage one?
Answer: Passage one describes a phenomenon which passage two criticizes</p>

<p>What were the other choices for this question? I'm not sure if I put the correct answer for it"</p>

<p>im not completely sure right now...but thats the one i was contemplating on the test also...but i thinkt he better answer was the one that said they both criticized it which they did...the intent of teh first one wasn't to really explain it but to rant about how much of a hassle it was..the only thing that kept perplexing me was how they defined "ethics" in this test because i remember they used it in an unconventional way..and i think the answer that said they criticized recyclying in both might hae said that they criticized the ethics of recycling..so i dont quite know</p>

<p>yeh elixir was definitely motivation...and that one with summon wasn't convene but i cant remember what the right one was..but it wasn't call forth either..and death was neglect..</p>

<p>Elixir referred to the phrase- BINGHAM's PERSONIFICATION was the motivation. Motivation was incorrect- it would have been correct had the question asked what BINGHAM as opposed to the ELIXER represented:</p>

<p>The expression "lost city," popularized by Bingham, was the magical elixir for rundownimaginations. The words evoked the romanticism of exploration and archaeology at thetime, in the summer of 1911. And the lanky and vigorous Bingham seemed to personifythe spirit that was driving discoveries of a forgotten past, the curiosity and courage to goseeking in remote places, as well as the hardihood to succeed</p>

<p>And the recycling passages: THe first passage was more CRITICAL, the second was more factual and scientific but still a little critical- Passage two explored the economic ramifications of recycling in addition to commenting on its inconvenience. PASSAGE ONE actually implicitly criticized people for doing something so Convoluted and inconvenient as recycling, especially when it sharply remarked acrimoniously and SARCASTICALLY that people look up to recycling as a "Noble act" --> This remark was the last sentence in passage one.</p>

<p>the old lady who was sad because she couldnt cook? her daughters name was angel...?
I think..
power of phrase
uninformed
convoluted rules
tempered
phenomenon vs critisize
to call forth</p>

<p>that's all I remember =)</p>
