December ACT 2008 Reading

<p>rahaman…</p>

<p>To Hipster -</p>

<p>I just wikipedia’d Temple of Saturn and it was reconstructed after a fire. Although I realize this means nothing if the passage didn’t mention it, I could’ve sworn the passage said that both were reconstructed. =/.</p>

<p>Well, I don’t think it was the Temple of Saturn and Assyrian that were asked, it was the Roman Senate Building and something else.</p>

<p>I didn’t think the Indian music was that bad (though boring) and the squid one was really easy to read. But I hate the section about social science. They pull something out of a damn history textbook</p>

<p>The Indian music passage</p>

<p>It asked who said that Indian Music has grown with time?</p>

<p>Iyer
Rehk
Rahman
I forgot</p>

<p>It was Rehk, 100%. In the passage he said ‘‘It has come of age’’ referring to Indian music.</p>

<p>Rehk was the DJ guy of under ground clubs or something.</p>

<p>Yeah, it was rheck, not rahaman</p>

<p>i think i put rekha too</p>

<p>Question aksed for something about maturing…</p>

<p>Rehk- said “It has come of age”
Rahman- said something in the passsage about maturing.</p>

<p>I picked Rehk at first then switched.</p>

<p>i put rehkka. i don’t remember reading anything about maturing directly. “come of age” is definitely a synonym for maturing though.</p>

<p>"Another question was accoring to _________, what music affected the Indian music?</p>

<p>A) jazz
B) Western and Indi…
C)…
D)…"</p>

<p>I remember this one. I put (I think this is what it said) “Western and Indian influences”.</p>

<p>syrius it was what music affected the indian immigrant youth i think
and yes i believe ur answer is correct</p>

<p>i second that ^</p>

<p>i remember it saying it was western flavored</p>

<p>the answer to the maturing one was definitely Rahman because he was saying how indian music started incorporating all sorts of different music overtime which is maturing, i believe that “coming of age” wasn’t refering to the indian music it was refering the the politics and using music to battle racism or something like that.</p>

<p>i put rekha…rahman?..i dont think so…he talked about the “shameless stuff right?”…yeah there was NOTHING in there about maturing…</p>

<p>Rehka never talked about using music to confront racism. The author said that.</p>

<p>crap yeah youre right, but i couldve sworn it was rahman, cause he said how western indian music started off basic but now includes many other types of genres such as surf rock, punk and stuff like that</p>

<p>btw what did you guys put for the squid one it was like</p>

<p>which is a place in which the squid has not been sighted at?</p>

<p>a. on land
b. in the stomach of an animal
c. in popular science magazine
d. in its natural habitat</p>

<p>c and d are out obviously but i couldve swore it said that it hasn’t been found on land or in the stomach of an animal, i put on land because they ended up explaining why the suid wouldn’t be found in the stomach of an animal.</p>

<p>It was D. The squid was never seen alive in the deep sea.</p>

<p>The answer was D. It was in the text.</p>

<p>yeah the answer was D. </p>

<p>I hated that Indian music passage. Too many confusing names.</p>

<p>wait but they said that they went on the ocean floor to find something and some scientist took picturesof it while in a submarine, wasn’t that the natural habitat? and didn’t it also say specifically that it has never been found washed up on land?</p>
