<p>Cirque du Soleil:
-Shrewd Financial decisions</p>

<p>Lake Vostok:
-Fortuitous
I am not sure about the sunlight shining on ground...</p>

3

<p>Shrewd financial decisions wasn't correct...=O
It was adults... or something.</p>

4

<p>Really? What is the reason for that? I thought it was financial decisions cuz getting rid of animals "removed costly expense" and adults will pay more.</p>

5

<p>What was the sunlight shining on the ground? Which question?</p>

6

<p>I think it might have been one of those EXCEPT questions...</p>

7

<p>shrewd financial decision was correct
the entire passage was about how the new circus was successful in gaining adult's interests, and the last line of the passage said it was huge success in earning admission fee.</p>

8

<p>Oh yeah, thanks stephan for gathering all the answers together...</p>

9

<p>@Feed, It actually is shrewd financial decisions.</p>

<p>@stephan, Good Job Dude!</p>

10

<p>cra..p got that one wrong because I thought it was a success since it was able to attract the older crowd.. mother..</p>

11

<p>@fireman, I don't remember ... we had a discussion about that before. I put adults... so I'm hoping that's correct. :P
The question was what did the author say was the reason for the success of the Cirque... (not what was implied)... and the passage said:
'The Cirque didn't use animals and survived that ... but even more important (or something) was that the Cirque introduced a new tradition when it brought in not only children... etc... ' (something along those lines... I read the passage twice and these lines three times).</p>

<p>So, I think it's adults.</p>

<p>Anyway, yea, that sunshine one was one of the EXCEPT/NOT questions... It was like what is the last para not meant to suggest... or something.</p>

12

<p>Anyone remembers a question about oxen, bull in Sublime passage? (not the one about how oxen lives harmoniously with humans)</p>

13

<p>It is?
OH GREAT.
Thanks...</p>

14

<p>For the rattlesnakes one, I remember that there was a question that involved the Native Americans in the second passage, like how the Native Americans appreciated the snakes?</p>

15

<p>@ Feed, I'm pretty sure adult is correct, I don't remember many financial decisions made - the decision to not include animals is not as much of a financial decision as it is a "new trend" for the animal protection stuff. And yes, they did stress the adults - not just children audience.</p>

16

<p>niceee einstein... phew I thought I got that one wrong for a sec..</p>

17

<p>I love how first CCers convince me I was wrong, and then I was right.
Underscores our persuasive capabilities (ahem, in essays). ;)</p>

18

<p>could anyone tell me what the second "people" were?
I would remember how they were described but I'm unsure of what noun the answer I put was.</p>

19

<p>about the shrewd financial decision one, i am still not sure if it is adults or not.
many students in my ap lit class said it was financial decision... :(</p>
