<p>Sentence completion was easy. I remember the one word I didn’t know was “spate”, in the sentence about renewed interest in something, so ____ Hollywood films. Spate was the answer right??</p>
<p>Also about the Amazon rain forest thing, malaria, can’t cultivate the soil. I answered —, discouraged. I remember I found the answer to the first blank not exactly fitting, but “discouraged” was the only one that fits in the second blank so I chose that.</p>
<p>Other answers (can’t remember the questions for these, but I remember the words because I learned them literally a few days before the test :D):
lugubrious
malaise</p>
<p>I am pretty sure, yep.</p>
<p>
I don’t remember the answer word by word, but it was something like her mother’s attitude being successful in making her children not worry about their ethnical background.</p>
<p>
Because the list of names would allow the daughter to contact her mother’s relatives, understanding her past, history and essence.</p>
<p>
The answer was that the judgement for said statement was the fact that the mother, towards the end of the passage, tried aiding her daughter by [giving her the list.]</p>
<p>CONSOLIDATED LIST (non-experimental)
-please confirm, correct, improve, elaborate wherever you can
-Venus Williams section was experimental
-currently thinking there was ONE no error</p>
<p>—> found that in the American June SAT thread. So is Sec 6 experimental???</p>
<p>it showed a variety of topics was correct.</p>
<p>oohh just remembered some more vocabs
topography
cartography
lugubrious
automaton
circumspect(?)
prosaic
congeniality(?)
deplorable (this wasn’t sentence completion but i think it was one of the passage questions)
deter</p>
<p>remembering some more questions
there were answer choices like
mother’s emotional response…?
change in tone…?
it was one of the chinese origin passage and I chose the answer choices that had sth about emotional response </p>
<p>I could only remember the answer choices but there was also like
testimony to mother’s relatives??? I don’t think this was the correct choice
but I don’t remember what I chose</p>
<p>there was one question about what best fits realization? </p>
<p>oh and there was also one questions (one of the last questions in the chines origin passage) and it asked what it mean about the author calling back? sth like that
and the answer choice was like “contacting author’s mother’s relatives…”
yes kaitlin01 I chose the choice that had the word contact </p>
<p>ohhhhhhh i don’t know
it’s so hard to recall these questions</p>
<p>other answers…
Amazon was pristine/deterred
Malaise was correct
Spate was correct
avarice/beneficial
lugubrious</p>
<p>Answer was topography, not cartography right?</p>
<p>Marsha.ss–> why is it pristine/deterred? Nowhere in the sentence did it say anything about “pristine”</p>
<p>are you all from asia? i didn’t know the tests were different. i’m from America and i don’t remember any of these questions. oh, and when some guy said the americans are probably on section 6 or something, we(east coast) were finishing up section 9.</p>
<p>yeah I chose topography
really the answer was spate??? 
we really need to confirm which one was the experimental </p>
<p>My test was
essay
reading
writing
math
reading
writing
reading
math
reading
writing </p>
<p>I think this was the order… I got experimental for writing
Did every international get writing as the experimental ?
i really hope section 3 was the experimental plzplzplzpzlpzlzplpzlzplzpzl :(</p>
<p>spate means “a sudden flood or rush” so it fits in the sentence. what did you answer?</p>
<p>yeah we have the same order. i think we all did :(</p>
<p>anyways, does anyone remember any more questions?? and what do you think the curve will be like?</p>
<p>also, how did everyone find the essay? :D</p>
<p>I dunno i think I said revival? or sth I totally guessed it
what was the malaise question? I think I got this wrong too </p>
<p>I think CR wasn’t that hard but I still got many wrong
writing really makes me worried
is there any way we could find out which was the experimental section?
math… ok wasn’t that hard was it?</p>
<p>The essay was… okay I suppose. Somehow still had an ace in the hole and managed to think of 3 examples, even though none of the ones I had memorised were about courage in any way.</p>
<p>wasn’t it something like the diseases deterred settlers so the rainforest reamined pristine? Or am i remembering incorrectly.</p>
<p>Why is it revival? The blank was positioned before the words “new Hollywood …” and by definition there cannot be a revival of “new” stuff… I answered “revival” at first too, then I changed it…</p>
<p>@marsha: I just remembered that the word paired with “discouraged” is inaccessible (or some synonym). Am I right? I thought “inaccessible” can also mean “unapproachable” or something, so I was thinking since the rain forest had soil that can’t be cultivated and malaria was widespread, the rain forest is “inaccessible”, not “pristine”… What did the others answer?? anyone else??</p>
<p>I was able to fill up the 2 pages right down to the last line, but then I kinda twisted my examples to fit my thesis. I argued that “courage” is subjective, and that what one deems ordinary and self-interested can be worth emulating for someone else. So since there are always more than one way to approach a situation, one cannot simply dismiss the widespread use of “courage” to indiscriminate use (or something like that). I use Ellen and Marcos as examples (twisted the facts haha). What did you guys argue for?</p>
<p>agree with marsha
i said that the soil deterred settlers sth like that and remained pristine?? </p>
<p>can someone please identify the question that had malaise?
what was the question about?</p>
<p>those people who give short responses–> too buys to care about strangers
really? I chose lose as well as gain
although deplorable occurence makes sense too</p>
<p>I remember looking through the quoted part (last paragraph I think, somewhere near those lines) and I think I didn’t see anything about any “gains”. The whole thing was talking about how we need the mysterious blahblah what are everyone else’s answers??</p>
<p>@kipling - on the other questions do we have the same answers?</p>
<p>I chose loss as well as gain
cuz in the end
these “researchers” try to find but at the same time try not to find the creature sth like that
it’s like they’re trying to seek it but they try not to seek it to preserve the mystery of the monster </p>
<p>well pretty much except
The one about the book that described the squid attacking stuff, what would the author of passage 2 infer –> A: that before it there are detailed descriptions about the squid</p>
<p>I remember this question but I don’t think I chose this answer </p>
<p>thought of one writing question suddenly
it was sth about the mexican city and the answer choices were like
Because it is accessible to …
Easy to access …</p>
<p>the question involved with dangling modifier
what did you guys choose
I chose because it is accessible to…</p>
