dec SAT answers

<p>hey guys lets compare answers!! arggg</p>

<p>ok for this one critical reading passage about Professor Mo and Duncan (the guy in China who was the popular teacher) what did you put for the question that asked what the quote "He was going to approach it with sagaciousness, like a true foreign expert" implied?</p>

<p>i was debating btw "duncan thought too hihgly of himself" and "he wanted to approach it in a politic manner"?</p>

<p>i would say politic, because it said he wanted to approach him in a diplomatic way.</p>

<p>I believe it should be 'politic' because one definition for politic is: smoothly agreeable and courteous with a degree of sophistication; "he was too politic to quarrel with so important a personage"; "the manager pacified the customer with a smooth apology for the error"</p>

<p>i think that was polite manner, not politic</p>

<p>i chose polite</p>

<p>no it said politic</p>

<p>darn really? i said "he thought too highly ofhimself" b/c the passage was like blah blah "role of foreign expert" (expert is kind of pompous) and...even at the end, the plan failed since the professor expressed enmity</p>

<p>oh yeah what'd you guys put for the question in the advertisement passage. it was like the mirror is like this situation ....</p>

<p>did you put an author plays up (this trait) and plays down greed ...or something like that</p>

<p>yes politic in this scenario means courteously. However, remember you shouldn't discuss questions.</p>

<p>I put the politic answer also. And in the advertizing passage I put the played up one trait (was it compassion maybe. I don't remember!) and played down greed.</p>

<p>I didn't have this passage.. perhaps it was the experimental?</p>

<p>I put politic. Also I put the writer aswell...</p>

<p>It was the proffesor Mo question....</p>

<p>i chose politic because approaching a situation sagaciously and a true foreign expert kinda meant to me like some foreign diplomat came over to convince you to do something in a very clean and nice way</p>

<p>but thats my take</p>

<p>Does anyone remember the sentence completion question (from the cube, privacy version) about the guy being able to tell stuff with out his notes simply by ________?</p>

<p>I put "remonstrating", which I now know is wrong, and another choice was "prevaricating" which is also wrong. Does anyone remember the other choices, or the right answer? Thanks.</p>

<p>Oh no, -1 in critical reading already!</p>

<p>The only question I was unsure about with the Mo passage was the one regarding the students' not using the recorders.....what did this tell us?</p>

<p>the professor one was extemporizing.</p>

<p>thanks.</p>

<p>that's sad, I can't even get all the sentence completions right =(</p>

<p>Who knows how bad I did on critical reading???!!</p>

<p>Hmm, which section was the extemporizing Q? I also picked "remonstrating" >.>, but I think it might of been the experimental CR section (4).</p>
