oh it was like a lack of fluency

Can someone please respond. Really nervous here. Did one of the reading sections only contain 23 questions? I think may have misbubbled.

23 i believe yeah

@mochilate1897 I think the question was: Once common, telephones incorporating recording devices were replaced by cellphones.

No error for the “incorporating” question.

Ok thanks so much. Yeah, with no experimental I think it was something like 23, 24, 20. Hopefully.

R u sure @joeweller

what’s the rationale for no error?

wait, what was the other options other than “lack of fluency”

because I didn’t like the tense shift between incorporating (implied present) and replaced (past), so i chose incorporating as the wrong one

@mochilate1897 Exact same tense shift in the director question. directing and directed

it didn’t ask for x though. it asked for (2x-3)

same

whats the curve gonna look like for all sections?

the director question had to be no error

but it had different tenses, isnt that your logic for the other question?

what was the exact director question?

although directing movies that were based on something, name directed a movie based on something different

just curious how its any different. not saying you are wrong or right.

I don’t remember the exact question, but I know I was 100% sure the error was incorporating.

The reason why “directing” can be used here is that it is in the subordinate clause, which does not follow the subject + verb structure of the main clause, which is “name directed a movie…”
