<p>elaslawek-</p>
<p>lmao. this question will most likely be the only one I miss, so I wanna know :P</p>
<p>world fair was A
trust me.
-_-</p>
<p>I put A for the World's Fair one.
If you did well on your essay guys I don't think you have to worry about a -1 on writing...</p>
<p>WORLD FAIR WAS E.
GOD.
lol
i hope.</p>
<p>i know most books say 20% no error, but i kept on finding errors.</p>
<p>ON the one about this Indian/weird sounding temple, it was something like</p>
<p>The A.C.M.E. Temple was not praised for its architecture but because of the tiles adorned the ceiling</p>
<p>Was the tiles part wrong b/c it should be adorning? we dont know if they're sill there</p>
<p>what was the world fair one?</p>
<p>^ majority A.</p>
<p>Trust me, it's E!</p>
<p>At the fair, crowds were larger and more enthusiastic than</p>
<p>A- the crowds at the past fair had been</p>
<p>E- those at the past fair</p>
<p>The correct form would be the crowds were bigger, not "had been". The past perfect denotes a continuation.</p>
<p>SAT stresses perfect parallelism I think so A would be right with two "crowds." Also, had been does not always denote a continuation. Here, it means that the crowds were not as enthusiastic at the last fair.</p>
<p>Codfish was singular</p>
<p>Parallelism is not an issue here. Saying the crowd had been bigger out of a hypothetical context is grammatically wrong.</p>
<p>^ the majority says A so I'll go with that. I'm not sure why it's hypothetical if there's no "could" or "would"</p>
<p>I don't know, but the phrase " had been " sounds not good. Why don't we just use " were" ?</p>

</p>
<p>Because the whole point of the SAT Writing is to force you to choose between two grammatical structures that sound awkward and uncomfortable.</p>
<p>I'm fairly sure the last answer was E.</p>
<p>"World's Fair at ______" was very long and cumbersome, so I simplified the sentence in my head to something short, and the "had been" ruins it.</p>
<p>We should start a tally on the World Fair. The shortened version seems vague and not parallel with the rest of the sentence. I posted about this earlier.</p>
<p>I say A.</p>
<p>i say A. haha</p>
