<p>This is the thread for people who had the following CR passages. If you didn't have the following, please do not post.</p>
<p>Motorcycling
giant squid
chinese-american writer/mom
biographers
black women essay</p>
<p>Wasn’t there also a novelist/biographer one? :</p>
<p>But I did get all of the above passages…
I was confused about a question from the motorcycling one was regarding the author’s reference to “frame”. What was the answer for that?</p>
<p>Thanks for making a separate topic. So:</p>
<p>Squid double-passage:
Q: What can be inferred from paragraph 2 of Passage 2 about Verne’s description of the attack of the squid on the submarine?
A: That it had a description of the squid before that.</p>
<p>Chinese-American writer/mom:
Q: What was the gift?
A: Freedom from an unpleasant truth. (or smth like that)</p>
<p>Motorcycling:
Q: What does frame refer to?
A: Detachedness from the world? Or smth similar? Don’t really remember.</p>
<p>That’s what i meant by “biographers” passage. That’s the short one, right?</p>
<p>Anyway, i though frame showed the author’s preference for immediate experience or something like that.</p>
<p>@Flame: got the same answer for the Chinese-American one… don’t remember my answer to the squid one, though.</p>
<p>BTW, what did people put on SC question with elizabethan movies? Is it revival or spate?</p>
<p>@bostonmass: ohh, my bad… I glanced over it, haha…</p>
<p>Oops, think I put the wrong answer for the frame one, then.</p>
<p>^ Yes yes immediate experience! That was the one.</p>
<p>SC:
Elizabethan Q: spate</p>
<p>Some questions I remember…the people described by the cyclist knew more about life or something
Natural beauty for another one
freedom of control? for what the winding road thing suggests</p>
<p>for the giant squid, it was elevated to the status of something mythical
passage 2 suggests that it’s a loss and a gain
some paragraph of passage 1 puts the incident into a larger context
parentheses part elaborates on an earlier assertion</p>
<p>mom-it was painful for her to remember
daughter didn’t ask because mom was successful at stifling her or something
daughter was indifferent to past because of mom
manner of mom’s speech made it seem matter-of-fact</p>
<p>biographers
subject of passage 2 is a subset of that of passage 1
passage 1 indicates that real life activities are more unbelievable than fiction</p>
<p>There was also an encyclopedia or something passage. I put that that’s some pastime that offers observations
examples offer the broad range of the book
circulatory system for the analogy thing</p>
<p>Can someone help me recall the frame question?</p>
<p>Also, for some other question i put exquisite=meticulous</p>
<p>For biographers, i think the exact wording was someting like “complain that life is not as good as fiction.” </p>
<p>Also, i thought the people described by the cyclist were more concerned about now.</p>
<p>For the encyclopedia one, I also put circulatory system, and the exquisite=meticulous was for the same passage.</p>
<p>Frame Q: What does the frame (car window) refer to?
A: Immediate experience.</p>
<p>Your other answers differ from mine. Which is good for you, in fact, I suck at CR.</p>
<p>i put exquisite=stylish.</p>
<p>Is the elizabethan movies question “spate” or “revival”?</p>
<p>Also, is the painting “voluptuous” or “lugubrious”?</p>
<p>I put voluptuous for the painting, but I’m not so sure now. I remember that it was exaggerated, but nothing else.</p>
<p>I had revival and lugubrious.
The painting mentioned something about gloomy brush strokes, etc., so I went with lugubrious.</p>
<p>Elizabethan movies: spate</p>
<p>Exquisite: ??? Anyone remember all answer choices?</p>
<p>exquisite=delightful, stylish, meticulous…etc.
I thought it had to be meticulous because it was talking about the information coverage of the encyclopedia</p>
<p>Oh, and is the western imperialism thing narrow and biased?</p>
<p>exquisite, according to dictionary.com, can be
carefully sought out, chosen, ascertained, devised, etc. so I’m pretty sure it’s meticulous</p>
<p>I’m sure I didn’t put meticulous. Oh well…</p>
