<p>okay fine no one answer my question…</p>
<p>@mrkonabear- Yeah, I think that was the one. I didn’t have a passage about television</p>
<p>“and another question, the humor within workplace short double passage, was the second writer’s attitude towards the humor consultants ambivalent or skeptical ?”</p>
<p>i want to know this as well. i was initially gonna put ‘skepticism’, but after rereading the passage, i didn’t think the tone was negative enough to even be ‘skeptical’, much less hostile. i put ambivalent in the end</p>
<p>@bbbbblove</p>
<p>I put the same for EternalHeart did. They couldn’t be accurately predicted was choice E and it was skeptical.</p>
<p>okay good. cuz i totally bsed taht sectoin… ahahahahahha i think i got 0 right</p>
<p>compunction definition:1. a feeling of uneasiness or anxiety of the conscience caused by regret for doing wrong or causing pain; contrition; remorse.
2. any uneasiness or hesitation about the rightness of an action.</p>
<p>vs</p>
<p>rancor: bitter, rankling resentment or ill will; hatred; malice</p>
<p>I think disgraceful actions would cause others to feel compunction, not rancor</p>
<p>I felt like rancor was too strong of a word for the situation. Deep-rooted hatred seems a bit too extreme.</p>
<p>Raphael- I did the exact same thing</p>
<p>“rancor” works significantly better than does “compunction.” The actions were described as “highly disgraceful”; “compunction” is not nearly strong enough.</p>
<p>reposting a question:
“what about the question on the scientist/research passage asking what the significance of some discovery in a cell was… sorry thats really vague, but I don’t really remember the question or the answer, just know its missing from your list.”</p>
<p>Which question was progenitor/exploit?</p>
<p>“Father refusal to pick up soldier - Disloyal”</p>
<p>Does anyone remember the other answers for this (I was pretty confident that it wasn’t disloyal)?</p>
<p>“Example of another reason - Inexpensive motel”</p>
<p>Didn’t he say something like “soon the whole world will be covered in cement!” Scenic route made more sense to me, although it might be wrong if the motel they stayed in <em>was</em> inexpensive…</p>
<p>^demonstrate the unpredicability of nature or something</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>This fits into the puzzle metaphor: the discovery was progress toward a goal. I do not remember the wording of the answer choice.</p>
<p>progenitor was sc about the drummer</p>
<p>^ I still don’t remember that… x.x</p>
<p>I think the discovery was a clue to the puzzle (don’t remember the exact wording)</p>
<p>silverturtle, I said to demonstrate the unpredictability of nature because the next line italicized “had” happened vs. “could” happen</p>
<p>silverturtle, word strength doesn’t matter. The definition of compunction fits significantly better than does that of rancor</p>
<p>silverturtle, are you sure about the skepticism/ambivalence one?</p>
<p>and i dont get how the answer to the reader’s knowledge question is “take for granted”</p>
<p>I changed my answer from “take for granted” to A, but i cant remember what it was ==</p>
<p>@ silver
i think i put something about puzzle too like clarifying something idr</p>
