<p>EternalHeart, can the curve really be that generous?</p>
<p>How does “trick” mean “feat?” Could anyone explain?</p>
<p>Critical reading curves are usually pretty generous

<p>trick of the highest psychological order</p>
<p>it takes alot to do it</p>
<p>Are you sure its progenitor/exploit? I recall that the drummer “explored” the melodic capabilities of the instrument – he didn’t “exploit” them…</p>
<p>I got -6 or -7… I’m hoping that’s a 700.</p>
<p>@zinc- I would agree with you on the greek statues one. I originally intended to put austere/whatever but reread it several times carefully and realized plain/ornate was a better fit.
also, the disloyal one simply asked something like <the father’s=“” decision=“” to=“” ignore=“” the=“” soldier=“” came=“” off=“” virgil=“” as=“” ___.=“”> Seeing as the next sentence stated that Virgil was “patriotically offended” unloyal was a better fit than “irrational;” the passage does not suggest that Virgil could not understand the logistics behind his father’s position but rather that he assumes the reason is something “disloyal.”</the></p>
<p>but he definitely wasnt a chronicler; he was one of the first to do something, by definition a progenitor</p>
<p>same here ^ How does the raw score and number missed correlate? Is a -1 just a raw score of 53, -2 equals 52 and so on?</p>
<p>Writing Fiction Double Passage:</p>
<p>Ugh, my memory sucks but one of the questions was something like “How would the author of Passage 1 refer to the question posed by Passage 2” and there were a whole bunch of yes and no answers. Does that question go with the “Must anticipate a reader’s response” answer?</p>
<p>opps, that was math ^ :)</p>
<p>@RileyJohn- For every question missed, thats -1.25 raw score points. For every question you omit, it’s -1 raw score point.</p>
<p>i think i put must take into consideration a reader’s sophistication; not all readers may get ur joke or w/e</p>
<p>i hope thats right?</p>
<p>Eternal heart: do you rememeber the question that produced didactic as an answer? or perhaps otehr choices?</p>
<p>thanks</p>
<p>^ You must take into consideration a reader’s sophistication is not a right answer</p>
<p>The didactic one was
In comparison to the author of passage 2, the author of passage 1 has a more ____ tone</p>
<p>(the author double passage)</p>
<p>Jersey- I would dispute austere and rancor, and would not be surprised if one or two others are incorrect. I am aware that 45 pages is a significant amount of argumentative material, and I could very well be wrong. However, it doesn’t matter; in a few weeks we will find out all the answers and see</p>
<p>I am almost 100% sure it is rancor.</p>
<p>And please explain why it is not austere/unadorned.</p>
<p>^ Which answer would you put in place of austere/unadorned and rancor?</p>
<p>EternalHeart- "@RileyJohn- For every question missed, thats -1.25 raw score points. For every question you omit, it’s -1 raw score point. "</p>
<p>an omitted question is -0, not -1; a correct answer is +1, incorrect -.25, omitted +0</p>
<p>

<p>Wait, it’s not?</p>
