<p>-I didn't put middle/old aged, I think.... I think I put (permanently?) damaged by a ___ something. does anybody else remember anything about this? for prosody 101 poem</p>
<p>I also put onlooker's point of view.. it made the most sense.</p>
<p>yea, the entire novel (a new england nun) and passage is narrated in third person, so a random switch to anybody else narrating wouldn't really be reasonable. k good. I was debating though, because in those FEW SENTENCES that the question referred to... "She spoke with a mild stiffness. Either she was a little disturbed, or his nervousness affected her, and made her seem constrained in her effort to reassure him"....could be from Joe's/his point of view and the narrator could be telling the reader about his point of view. maybe too much debate</p>
<p>anybody remember the prosody 101 poem Q above?</p>
<p>I put Joe Daggett's point of view, because if it was an omniscient narrator or onlooker, they would have known why she "spoke with a mild stiffness." But in the passage it says "Either...OR" so Joe is not quite sure why she speaks with such stiffness.</p>
<p>For Prosody I put that she feels middle/old aged...I read an analysis on the poem online (google it) and it agreed with this answer..</p>
<p>yeah, that's why I thought it might be Joe, too ^
because if it was ominiscent then the narrator would know why and there would be no need to question.</p>
<p>Can you copy/paste where it agrees with your answer about prosody 101?</p>
<p>Sure, it's from this website which is actually a negative critique of the poem </p>

"I have problems with this poem on at least three levels: style, argument, and meter. (I guess that covers just about everything, doesn’t it?) My most immediate negative response is to the poem’s rhetorical style: I wince slightly at little anthropomorphisms like “the strict iambic line goose-stepping” and “camellias blowsy with middle age,” and slightly more still at their opposites, the phrases comparing people to weather and seasons. I’m not sure whether it helps or makes it worse when the speaker likens herself to the camellias, which, by virtue of being described as “middle-aged” in the first place, are already implicitly likened to her. I think by that point the poem is such a mess it doesn’t make any difference."</p>
<p>wow, interesting, actually.
agh. but another wrong. this is bad... spiffystars, are you sure that Joe's POV is correct? how confident are you?</p>
<p>i said it was Joe's point of view, i was pretty confident.</p>
<p>I didn't put down middle-aged, what were the other options?</p>
<p>I hope we have a curve...like a good one. Like.. -7 = 800. Haha which is probably not likely :(</p>
<p>damaged by the cold front (weather) and paralleled by damage by the lover's "cold front" Miiiiight have been a choice</p>
<p>yeah... I really hope there's a good curve.. i wonder if it was harder than most tests? lol
this is my first time taking it so i have no idea wat the other tests were like</p>
<p>Quick question...what would 8 wrong and 5 omits get me?</p>
<p>that'd be like a -15 raw score so overall it'd be around a 730-740 according to Kaplan, and according to collegeboard (the released exam) it would be around a 690-700.</p>
<p>That's actually a really good curve! When do we get our scores?</p>
<p>Is the middle aged answer the same as the past her youth one?</p>
<p>^ yes I think so</p>
<p>what would like 4 wrong be?</p>
<p>Tryin- probably 780-800 depending on the curve. </p>
<p>spiffy-Scores are online on December 20th</p>
<p>500th post! ftw!</p>
<p>does anybody remember any more questions?</p>
<p>Just a quick clarification - You're all saying one answer was "unknown." What question was this an answer to (and for what passage)?</p>
<p>Did anyone get "Liberation vs. Confinement" as an answer...??</p>
