<p>yes in general he was evenhanded but in that paragraph in particular wasn’t he a bit ironic in describing the problems??i thought he was exagggerating for ex noplace.but i am probably wrong.</p>
<p>No, the author of the second passage entirely agrees with that of the first that the problem exists; the only point of contention is whether cars themselves are the cause of the problem.</p>
<p>i think passage 2 provided an evenhanded evaluation of the problem, b/c the author states the problem of cars, but in the end says that cars are beneficial to cities, not detrimental. Second passage did not agree with the first passage mainly because of the final paragraph advocating for cars. But it doesn’t reply point by point, and i don’t think passage 1 suggested a proposal for passage 2 to disagree on. So i went with evenhanded. IDK, been wrong before.</p>
<p>does anyone remember effervescent and tendentious in two SC</p>
<p>Yeah, sunshine. The answer was that the butterfly’s wings were iridescent. I’m not sure if that was in the experimental or not..</p>
<p>For the question about the cars passage where the answer was “evenhanded”</p>
<p>Was another choice that Passage 2 was a rebuttal of a proposal in Passage 1?</p>
<p>For the question that most people answered “tentative”, what were the other answer choices? I can’t recall what I put.</p>
<p>Does anyone know the question and other choices to the pipe painting passage with the answer “The painting is not the object it depicts?”</p>
<p>What were the choices/question for precipitous?</p>
<p>Belligerent was one of them MisterA.</p>
<p>and i put belligerent LMAO :(</p>
<p>hard facts were solide- I don’t agree, I thought the question was something like “how would the ‘author’ regard to the words” so I chose …I don’t remember but I would if someone reminds me of the choices. I don’t think the author considered the hard facts solid since the author said, and pretty evidently, that the “hard facts” are impossible. So I’ve chose something like disturbed, I was shaking between that and tentative. But I discarded tentative cuz that sounded like he was having a problem deciding whether the “hard facts” were right or wrong.</p>

<p>One questions about Chinese passage .2
What was the question? and wat were the choices?</p>
<p>That question was asking about how the passage progressed from beginning to end.</p>
<p>Question about Pipe painting #1.
What was the question and what were the choices?</p>
<p>Just a reminder:
no posting questions or their parts in any form (see the sticky).</p>
<ol>
<li>Womens beliefs will not be different from mens.
I disagree with this one. There was another choice saying that “Woman couldn’t vote independently from their husbands”. This answer is more appropirate, because the passage was suggesting that women would vote with their husband anyway regardless what their opinions were, and even if women’s beliefs were different from mens, they would still vote with their husbands.</li>
</ol>
<p>I agree with wavvy</p>
<p>I disagree. The first passage talks about how women’s beliefs ended up being DIFFERENT from mens in the middle of the passage. Thus the assumption is that they were the same. If you don’t read the entire passage, the choice is obviously “women will not vote independent” . The question says “based on the passage”, what is the underlying assumption?</p>
