<p>K thanks... did u get 1611 or 1636 for that math one... and u wanna discuss any other difficult passage reading</p>
<p>it was 1636.</p>
<p>omg i hope i put that... it was an easy question too.. did i possibly forget to add 25??</p>
<p>idk..maybe you addedd it wrong..</p>
<p>i think im doing decently in the passage-based reading.... i've only spotted -5 overall so far. (4 from the sentence completions, thanks cb) granted there are propably 2 or 3 other ones do you think i have a shot at 690, 700</p>
<p>(already have a 690 from oct.)</p>
<p>what the **** did the weeds mean? lol i didnt get what the deal was with that </p>
<p>and what was the answer to the author's reaction of longitude?</p>
<p>anyone have a "local farm" good food one?</p>
<p>guess it was experimental...?</p>
<p>Yes,that is our experimental,but I think that one is much easier!!!</p>
<p>"what was the answer to the author's reaction of longitude?"</p>
<p>did you mean peoples or something? it was basically that people from 21st century dont understand how difficult it was to invent navigation</p>
<p>what did anyone get for the jaded one?</p>
<p>I was so sure that the answer to the avante garde one was accomodate and unorthodox, the other four had a synonym for commonplace as their second word so I didn't use any of them</p>
<p>josh5sox ^ i had thought teh same exact thing.</p>
<p>i can vouch for the confound/commonplace answer. confound can mean "to contradict" or "to regard erroneously" which fits the sentence well. inhibit is wrong. a movie can fail to match your expectations while you watch it, but it can't change your expectations WHILE you are watching it, because your expectations are formed BEFORE you watch it.</p>
<p>logic ftw</p>
<p>Yeah. While unorthodox seems like the most obvious answer. CB enjoys putting an answer that is half completely correct and half wrong (and I think the first word was definately wrong).</p>
<p>But I'm still confused about the last question comparing the passages of the privacy speech. There were three answers that seem logical:</p>
<p>A. Passage 1 expresses a concern and passage 2 shows its benefits
B. Something
C. Something
D. Both passages are critical of different institutions
E. Both passages disagree about the extent of an issue but propose similar solutions</p>
<p>passage 1 expresses a concern about something, passage 2 shows benefits.
the 4th choice referred to the two being "equally" concerned about "social phenomenons," not institutions.
I believe they weren't equal and that the loss of privacy is certainly not a social phenomenon. </p>
<p>also, the weeds questions I think Emerson was it, his suggestion was of little practical value.</p>
<p>And I'm pretty sure the commonplace, confound question was along these lines...</p>
<p>Although the latest film of avant-garde filmmaker Ling Wamuller (or whatever her name is) ___________ the audience's expectations, the techniques she used were quite ___________ to her. </p>
<p>I'm pretty sure that's the gist of it.
accommodate/unorthodox doesn't work as they wouldn't accommodate a regular movie-going audience, and also the whole point is that the techniques were quite normal to her.
also, inhibit doesn't work, b/c you can't hinder expectations.
confound, commonplace is a little awkward, but the best answer, I think.</p>
<p>Yeah, I think that's the closest sentence to the real thing (though the subordinate clause with the word avant-garde is somewhere at the end of the sentence). And yeah, I got "little practical value" for the Emerson weeds question.</p>
<p>Does **ANYONE **think they handled that Gardening passage?</p>
<p>Honestly, I thought the gardening passage was the easiest =/ but that's just me</p>
<p>i thought navigation was hardest, i thought teh story of teh lady with hard hands was easy</p>
<p>for the PRIVACY ONE:</p>
<p>what did everyone get for the technology question?
i have the worst memory and can't quite remember what exactly i put...</p>
