<p>Increased knowledge of family history. Something like that…</p>
<p>i put something like learning her culture; sorry don’t remember the exact wording</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I put same reaction to comments, but I was debating between those two as well.</p>
<p>…I actually thought sentence completions weren’t that bad, but with this thread I missed at least two, probably 3. </p>
<p>Anyone else think the passages weren’t that bad? There were only probably 5-6 questions that were tough and two or 3 that I was really waffling over.</p>
<p>did nebody get carping and something… vanguard?</p>
<p>@YRif, I think appreciation with her heritage.</p>
<p>@125…, I would say values, b/c no one made a comment when the damn(Pardon my language, but this passage just devastated my hopes of 750+, and I’m experiencing projection, as I let my anger out on that girl…) girl was appalled.</p>
<p>Question about the Silent Spring passage:</p>
<p>The passage most directly suggests with of the following about Silent Spring</p>
<ol>
<li>a watershed movement that marked an increase in public awareness
OR</li>
<li>an unscientific representation of her fondness for nature</li>
</ol>
<p>i think the one is for her to better appreciate her family?</p>
<p>…I put react similarly to opposing values because in the first example she wasn’t reacting to a comment and in the second the aunt was reacting to selling her house or living a “lower” life. Plus they used a word that means “exact same” in the answer you put science so I didn’t go for the definite one…</p>
<p>Carman - I DID explain. Lmao, don’t get unnecessarily hostile, I replied on the last post of page 10.</p>
<p>it was innovator and vanguard</p>
<p>I got vanguard for a SC. Is it wrong?</p>
<p>yea they used appalled twice within a paragraph to show that; yup got vanguard too
@Ethereality, i dont remember what i put for that one, but i remember really struggling with it a lot
i might have put watershed or something else</p>
<p>@Ethereality3: I put 1.</p>
<p>@Ethereality: I said that it marked a turning point in her career because the passage opened with how her love of science made her become a writer.</p>
<p>Ethereality3, I put down #1. #2 didn’t make sense because the passage started off saying that she was scientific and used that in writing the book.</p>
<p>a watershed movement that marked an increase in public awareness</p>
<hr>
<p>Ethereality thats what I said. Didn’t it mention that she made the public aware of the science behind it and was the first to do so??</p>
<p>@ethereal
it was watershed moment the passage stated that carson had a scientific understanding of environmental problems</p>
<p>I HATE vocabulary with a passion. It takes away the meaning of a reasoning test. Easier vocabulary (i.e., words that don’t have freaking less than 200,000 results in a Google search) could just as effectively be used to test reasoning in whatever department or category it falls in. It’s just so ANNOYING</p>
<p>yea it wasn’t unscientific; what other answers were there? i’m 60% sure i put watershed.</p>
