<p>I read the marble question twice and THOUGHT it was still gain w and lose k… arghhh i would be really angry if I got that wrong lol cuz I had so much time left! </p>
<p>Oh for the Nemo question, does anyone remember getting “scientists throughout history have both feared and desired the unknown” or sumthing? Since the question quoted was “who lies in the deep abyss” or sumthing and that sort of showed that explorers have feared going down there…</p>
<p>oceanangel, you are right but if you work out the math, it turns out to be k-w</p>
<p>for Deep sea scientist passage
<p>are you sure its curiosity?
i thought it was how author reflects on an incorrect knowledge she had…
she thought that everything was known when she was young but now knows that its not true and that the world was boundless or something…</p>
<p>by the way, did you guys get</p>
<p>bounless, barrenless (?) for the monster question?</p>
<p>what about the Baker woman in passage about black people living in France?
did you get “theatrical flair”?</p>
<p>oceanangel,</p>
<p>ya i got “scientists throughout history have both feared and desired the unknown” too… other ones didn’t seem right.</p>
<p>Laure327: ok that’s good 
hmm I don’t really remember a monster question…but I do remember one answer was “quiet and dark” or sumthing</p>
<p>wait for the marble question, I still don’t really understand haha. So u lose k and gain w would be m+w-K = m-20
then you cancel out the m, and get that w-k = 20
right?</p>
<p>OHHHH did it have to be a POSITIVE answer???</p>
<p>oh and I also got theatrical flair</p>
<p>Short Passages~</p>
<p>Painter father passage~
- he thought there was a subtle display of emotion which may or may not have been there
- a watershed event in his life</p>
<p>Deep sea scientist passage~
- first: curiosity(??? no, it was definately the one with wrong assumption)
- author contrasts smth to: the seafloor (?)
- last sea scientist question: concede a point (wasn’t it OBSTACLE thing???)
- analogy: musician who got impressed by a good piece of music or something</p>
<p>Law comparison passage~
- juror could be manipulated
- derisive - laudatory (really? i still do think it was ____ - cautionary)
- Acknowledge alternate view</p>
<p>for the concede a point one, I actually first put down obstacle cuz it made sense…I then changed it to concede a point for some reason…now that I think of it, why IS it CONCEDE? lol</p>
<p>I put obstacle cuz the context was sth like this: “people say there are no life on the seafloor. but damn you guyz are wrong! in fact, if you use a microscope or sth, you can see a myriad of life living on the floor”…</p>
<p>@laure
-i put curiosity for the first question, with all one word answers (curiosity, exhiliration etc…)
-your question is the second one i think, i put what you put. the first paragraph showed how she had incorrect knowledge of the world.
-i didn’t put boundless and barren, i put “quiet and dark”</p>
<p>@oceanangel
yes i put “quiet and dark” and “theatrical flair”</p>
<p>@Dianaoh
i hesitated for the obstacle/concede a point as well as the derisive-laudatory/…-cautionary
to think of it, “concede to a point” may be wrong. concede means to agree; she isn’t agreeing to anything. agh, 1 wrong.
any third party input?</p>
<p>I don’t even remember the derisive and laudatory quesition haha
That probably means I got it wrong >.<
Anyone remember the actual question and answer choices other than derisive-laudatory?
thanks~~</p>
<p>concede - " to acknowledge grudgingly or hesitantly"</p>
<p>the author grudgingly accepts"look like seafloor life is really small… but still its wonderful"… he’s accepting that its small/difficult to find…</p>
<p>iunno at this point it seems like both concede a point/obstacles that scientists face… but see if you put concede a point it makes the passage more sense as a whole… the whole time hes saying oh its amazing and at the end, yeah its a bit difficult(conceding a point), but its still good</p>
<p>also i did not get “curiosity” for the child… i got frusturation… he said HE wanted to be the one finding things… i also remember him specifically saying he “ENVIED” others…thats sort of frustration… besides for curiosity, he said that they were already discovered… he didnt have any curiosity(i think)</p>
<p>"what was the tone of the last from each of the passages?</p>
<p>ironic - ???
nonchalant - ???
derisive - laudatory
?? - cautious</p>
<p>the derisive-laudatory question was a comparison question of the last sentence of each of the two passages from the lawyer CR section.</p>
<p>the last sentence of the first passage was something like: the lawyers have to trick the jurors with an analogy to giving babies bibs
second passage was: excepting the evil lawyers, lawyers telling stories is a still a noble pursuit.</p>
<p>i still think it’s derisive-laudatory. cautionary may be partially correct since the second author considers the existence of sneaky lawyers, but laudatory is more correct imho. calling it a “noble pursuit” is quite laudatory.</p>
<p>derisive is very appropriate for the tone of the last sentence of the first passage. whats the first term of the …-cautionary option?</p>
<p>it was theatrical flair for the black women because she described her eyelashes and then said “, something for the stage”… or something like that</p>
<p>it was quiet and dark because there was a reference to a monster sleeping, and then the lack of sunlight</p>
<p>i dont remember putting ““scientists throughout history have both feared and desired the unknown””, what was the question for that?</p>
<p>OHHH yeah i remember now haha yeah I put derisive and laudatory.</p>
<p>Oh and i didnt but curiousity. I also put frustration cuz the child was like “I WISH I WAS THE ONE WHO DISCOVERED THE GRAND CANYON” haha</p>
<p>does anyone remember a question where it asks for the definition of “curiously”? was it interestingly? I guessed that one</p>
<p>“scientists throughout history …” was the one where it asks why the author used the quote from the fictional explorers</p>
<p>the marble question:</p>
<p>(m+w-k) = (m-20)
(w-k) = -20</p>
<p>did everyone get the same thing? im confused how people got (w+k) = 20, that wouldnt make sense because k is the number of marbles lost, however, it is NOT a negative number</p>
<p>@oceanangel
yeah i put interestingly, i’m pretty sure it’s correct.</p>
<p>frustration doesn’t fit with the overall passage at all. curiosity fits the most with the passage.
she kinda admires the pplz who set foot on the moon instead of envying them. hmm…</p>
<p>curiously = interestingly for sure</p>
<p>oh crap i dont remember the scientific explorer ones :S… do u remember any of the other choices?
i think i put “cause there are no real world parallels” but i think thats a diff question</p>
