@Pinguman123 I got exactly the same thing as you. I think I chose children of different ages because of something about the preposition and the context of the sentence that would make it seem like it would modify something else if it were differently aged children.
@Pinguman123 @asiankid88 I also got the same answers as you guys. I hope they are correct.
@Starior so you got Children of different ages right? Was the answer “A”?? as in correct?
@asiankid88 Yes I chose A.
In the one about New York Botanical garden I answered the same as Pinguman. Can’t remember the others.
“Unlike the rest of Europe, astronomy in Victorian Britain was funded by wealthy and intellectual individuals, not by the kingdom/ government iself.” It’s a faulty comparison, it should be “Unlike in the rest of Europe”. I remember it was an Error Identification so the answer was A.
Secion 5 was the dummy, I know because my sister had 4 CR and I had 4 Writting and I asked her if she had a passage about egyptian pyramids and she said no. But she does remember the one about the dude that went to college and loved board games.
For CR does anyone remember their answer for the question about an “eighth grade teacher?” I either skipped this question or put “supportive” (probably skipped but who knows)
@Pinguman123
Yup, his music teacher talked “supportive” after listened him playing piano. But it wasn’t exactly “supportive”, there was a whole sentence yet I remember it was about supportiveness.
@asiankid88 @Starior
I also chose “A”, “Children of different ages”.
“Their arms” also same. It was weird in that sentence.
And we all think the same about “Unlike the rest of Europe”. There should have been an “in” after “unlike”.
@oz4nss what was the Europe thing? was it in experimental?
Does anyone remember the short paired passage about the dancer who invented some flip.
There was a question asking why the author thought the man was significant and I answered because his career spanned several eras. What did everyone else think about this question?
@randomhouse yup that’s the answer
@asiankid88 no its not, it said he was an innovator of different styles, so the ans was he used a variety of types or something. an era is a peroid of something, in this case popularity of an art form. Therefore it may have spaned decades, but not eras. it clearly said his career was killed by the new era of big band etc. So he really only played in one era, despite that era being several decades. i saw heaps of these types in practice exams its like trick inference questions or conjecture.
As per an earlier thread, stumbled across this. Not sure if all the answers are correct, so do post concerns if you have any. Credits to the original poster!!!

@abc1688 I don’t think it really talked about variety though; it only made emphasis on his one killer move or whatever it is.
it said innovator of new styles or something, which means there is variety. Can innovation happen without variety? often cr passages never explicityly have the answer and decades one is just a real good trick q
@abc1688
You rock!
@Vedant12 what’s your take on dancing innovator question? was it multiple eras?
Guys about the “children of different ages” & “differently-aged children,” couldn’t it be the second for the sake of decreasing words? That’s what I did so… I don’t remember anything in the sentence that would make the second choice wrong, do you guys??
@ARelaxingEnd To be honest, I’ve heard “children of different ages” as a pattern and “differently-aged children” was kinda weird… But actually, both of them make sense now. Still, I’d go with the first one.
@ARelaxingEnd do you remember the question? I remember that choice 2 did something to make it awkward
