AP English Lit on Thursday

<p>Editors was the answer to the question “Who was not satirized”?</p>

<p>One of the mariu’s questions was editors, itw as the one about the plague of surrealism and etc xD</p>

<p>Also i think for the grief passage one of the questions ask about was the antecedent to a particular word, I put statue as my answer xD</p>

<p>Also there was also one question about the Touch it; in the grief passage anyone remember the answer choices?</p>

<p>YESSS!!! I didn’t fall for the “giving aid to the poor” trap!</p>

<p>Editors was just an answer to a question of who wrote something, all you had to do was look back in the passage.</p>

<p>The police were the ones not satirized.</p>

<p>For the Touch It question, I put the one that said something about telling people to look into their own feelings of grief? Wasn’t sure.</p>

<p>Incredulous -> lacking experience of deep grief?</p>

<p>“Touch it” was inviting, or something similar. Kinda like doubting Thomas.
The antecedent was statue.
What about “incredulous of”?</p>

<p>The “Touch it” question I think was talking about concrete imagery of grief or something along those lines. </p>

<p>Oh my god I think I got a lot more right than I thought reading this thread! PRAYING FOR A FIVE.</p>

<p>Yeah I put the same thing for “incredulous of.”</p>

<p>The Frog in the Swimming Pool

  1. Blended into his environment
  2. Unattractive and lonely</p>

<p>Marius

  1. “Bless his heart” = ironic interjection
  2. Bigot
  3. Death= overexaggerated
  4. Police were not satirized
  5. Muffing = spoiling the opportune moment to die</p>

<p>Lady Eustace

  1. Calculated charm
  2. Sir Florian is a victim
  3. Hair accesories
  4. Passage was broken down into categories and within those categories, arguments and explanations</p>

<p>Ulysses

  1. Worldly attitude
  2. Ajax = latest to gain fame
  3. Usage of similes and metaphors</p>

<p>Despair

  1. Silent was the answer to the first question</p>

<p>I feel the opposite xD, I just want a 3 xD</p>

<p>Come on 22 questions right!!! XD</p>

<p>For the “touch it” one I definitely said concrete images; again not sure if it’s right. I also said lacking experience of grief for incredulous.</p>

<p>“Touch it” was there, but I don’t remember the answer choices. It seemed like any easy question.</p>

<p>I thought for the Grief poem, the first question was “What does it mean by passionless grief” and the answers were like halfhearted, insincere, etc.</p>

<p>The answer was silent for that one.</p>

<p>Wasn’t it halfhearted? Why would it be silent? The poem was saying that being silent was showing true passionate grief and being respectful to the dead, not passionless.</p>

<p>@hm29168 I thought so as well but I don’t exactly remember.</p>

<p>The Frog in the Swimming Pool

  1. Blended into his environment
  2. Unattractive and lonely</p>

<p>Marius

  1. “Bless his heart” = ironic interjection
  2. Bigot
  3. Death= overexaggerated
  4. Police were not satirized
  5. Muffing = spoiling the opportune moment to die
  6. Had Marius not died, he would have been an inconsequential figure</p>

<p>Lady Eustace

  1. Calculated charm
  2. Sir Florian is a victim
  3. Hair accesories
  4. Passage was broken down into categories and within those categories, arguments and explanations</p>

<p>Ulysses

  1. Worldly attitude
  2. Ajax = latest to gain fame
  3. Usage of similes and metaphors</p>

<p>Despair

  1. Silent was the answer to the first question</p>

<p>Since there were 5 sections, would that be 11 questions per section? xD</p>

<p>*The first line says “I tell you, hopeless grief is passionless”. I think what he goes on to say about the people who are passionate and loud in their grievances have yet to recognize the futility of their loss and they still have an ounce of hope. Then, when he goes on to describe silent mourners, he says that they recognize their loss and do not emit signs of passion. Therefore, their grief is hopeless and passionless and is silent.</p>

<p>*This may be totally wrong.</p>

<p>The questions for each section were not divided evenly.</p>

<p>Shaq your explanation, at least to me, makes sense, even though I put halfhearted.</p>

<p>Also i just remember for the Lady Eustace section there was a question about in the passage all of these except this described Lady Eustace physically, which was it?</p>

<p>I put the answer about where instead about talking about her it was comparing her to people’s nose/face/or head xD</p>

<p>@Arctk3 Yes, I know that. Obviously I only recovered some of the questions.</p>
