April 2011 ACT English Discussion

<p>What was the answer to the one where it was like what was the purpose of the
Polished, black, etc. was it for design blah blah or what? cant’ remeber the one i put -.-</p>

<p>i think it kept the authors descriptions consistant</p>

<p>@Tashima I think it was to show what the author was looking at.</p>

<p>Does anyone remember the one in the statue passage where we were supposed to answer whether to delete part of the sentence about the World Fair or something? One of the choices was like, “Yes, because it is repetitive.” and another was, “No, it clarifies.”</p>

<p>^ no, because it tells the event</p>

<p>i said it clarifies, kinda guessed</p>

<p>For that one I’m pretty sure it was yes, but I spent a lot of time debating between the two. Was it because it showed the event, or how the statue originated? It said in the passage that he made the statue for the event, but the next portion describes the event itself.</p>

<p>What was the one about the Memorial and vistors leaving flowers and stuff :/</p>

<p>im not sure exact wording but i think it was subject then verb so wall was adorned or something…</p>

<p>I guess I skipped number 11 because I noticed that there is a blank in number 11 on English section. if ya know about number 11 question and answer choice or near number 11, please let me know problem!!! The first paragraph was about one women I cant remember her name but about airplane…</p>

<hr>

<p>English section was easy… And, I put remarkable, not unsurprising. I dont know what the answer is. bolt…blue question</p>

<p>@math - It had to start with the wall, otherwise it would be a (misplaced) modifier</p>

<p>What was the one where it asked which was the least acceptable… the cabin kept it cool in the summer ____ a bit cool in the winter. I think i put “, even so” not entirely sure tho. The only other one I thought might not work was “and even” as it kinda changes the logic of the sentence.</p>

<p>it was “even so” just sound it out. kept it cool in the summer even so a bit cool in the winter?? that just sounds awkward. the others might’ve sounded awkward but not that bad</p>

<p>Yeah that’s what I was thinking too… I just second guessed myself like ten times on that.</p>

<p>what about the quotes from “tapped” question in the drought passage? i think it was something like what would the author lose with omitting the quotes? i marked the technical term answer</p>

<p>^ I marked the same thing.</p>

<p>the word was “topped” i put it was used to say the author was using a technical term because she said that the tree had to be cut down in a special way</p>

<p>sweet thanks</p>

<p>For the question, where it had “drop” “dropping” “are dropping”, Did anyone get “drop”? I was mulling over it for a few minutes and put “are dropping” then realized the verb has to be in the infinitive and put “drop”. anyone else get drop?</p>

<p>^^ i think that might’ve been a no change ------- soldiers’ feet?</p>
