<p>Am I the only one who thinks the english test was a piece of cake? I'm predicting like at least a 32 for it, probly higher. Maybe I just got an easy one...</p>
<p>Well, seeing as only 2 people have posted on the Official ACT English Thread, it was probably one of the easier parts of this ACT. </p>
<p>The only one I wasn't sure of was the one about the man riding a horse for the first time. It was something about "even though I'm not an expert rider, at least I'm easy to get along with" or something like that. I was stuck between "expert rider/no change" and just "expert".</p>
<p>true. </p>
<p>Yeah, I felt the same way about the horse rider one also. I forget which one I chose, but other than that the section as a whole was really easy.</p>
<p>I love ACT English. It's WAY better than SAT writing... I predict it'll be my highest section by far (was last time - 33 :D).</p>
<p>great! hope everyone else found it as easy as we did. i just hope i did better than everyone else (evil laugh). lol, jk.</p>
<p>adorevintage i put expert rider since it didnt sound right to just say expert..lol</p>
<p>You know the sentence that was like "he told me to get on ______" the choices were
THEM
THE HORSE
STORMY
and something else</p>
<p>What was the answer?</p>
<p>stormy 10 char</p>
<p>i thought the section was much harder than the Oct one. there seemed to be so many more ambiguous ones:</p>
<p>-lakes and rivers
-did honeybee story sucessfully show how two ppl respond diff to same situation?</p>
<p>Hello everyone.</p>
<p>What did you guys chose for the lakes and rivers one and the question about leaving rider in or out ( expert rider vs expert)? Thanks a lot.</p>
<p>i kept the lakes and river part, for the rider one, i said expert rider</p>
<p>totally agree with dandelion</p>
<p>i agree with both of u lol</p>
<p>I kept the lakes and river clause but excluded rider for the other question. I really want to know the answer to that question. Any experts here to answer this question. Haha</p>
<p>I said "expert" instead of "expert rider" because the sentence already implies that the person was a horse rider so it would have just been extranneous information.</p>
<p>no i forgot the sentence but rider needed to be there because he described something else besides riding like calming the horse down or something so rider needed to be there</p>
<p>Does anyone remember the exact sentance? I would like to bring it to my english teacher.</p>
<p>OK, well I just assumed that since the entire paragraph or passage was referring to horseback riding that one would be able to presume that the narrator was a rider; therefore, "rider" would be unnecessary.</p>
<p>the sentence was something like, "even though I was not an expert rider, at least I was an easy one to get along with."</p>
<p>"expert rider" was necessary so "one" would be referring to "rider"</p>
<p>if "rider" had been removed, "one" would be referring to "expert," and the passage clearly states he is not an expert; the sentence would read, "even though I was not an expert, at least I was an easy (expert) to get along with</p>
<p>Meh...I am not convinced...Will i ever be? Will the ACT publish the answers somewhere?</p>
