Test Preparation SAT Preparation

<p>All you guys seem to have past the rigorous SAT test yesterday.
It's time to have a break for while and begin again! ( of course for anyone who does not do very well on the test and want to keep up)</p>

<p>Now pls help me with this CR: </p>

<p>Many people who hate spam assume that it is protected as free speech. Not necessarily so. THe US Supreme Court has previously ruled that individuals may preserve a threshold of privacy "Nothing in the Constitution compels us to listen to or view any unwanted communication, whatever its merit", wrote Chief Justice Warren Burger in a 1970 decision. "We therefore categorically reject the arument that a vendor has a right to send unwanted material into the home of another". With regard to a seemingly similar problem, the Telephone
Consumer Protection Act of 1991 made it illegal in the US to send unsolicited faxes; why not extend the act to include unsolicited bulk email? </p>

<p>The primary purpose of Passage 2 is to
D. analyze a widespread social problem
E. lay the foundation for a course of action </p>

<h2>I see that last sentence of the passage is clearly to encourage the action against unsolicited bulk email. However, the whole paragraph is kind of analytical. The passage gives the common perception about spam, then cites the quote of Warren about this unwanted communication, then talks about the action of telephone consumer protection act and finally speaks up the course of action...Can you guys pls tell me how I should understand the "primary purpose" of this passage. When do people use analyze something and lay the foundation for a course of action? I'm really annoyed with this kind of question. I can always eliminate 3 choices but cannot choose the right one of only 2 remained. ?!?!?</h2>

<p>It is hard for someone to believe that women were at one time not admitted to some college[, but they have since become coeducational].
A. As written
B. , but they are now coeducational
D. that have since become coeducational</p>

<p>I HAVE NO IDEA with this sentence?!?!? It seems weird but I do not see anything gramatically wrong. </p>

<p>P/S: Feel free to respond. I'll post the right answer then</p>

2

<p>Is it D…for the second one…?</p>

3

<p>“E. lay the foundation for a course of action” for the first one. The writer brings out points about a different industry, which is clearly there to suggest that the course of action taken can be applied similarly.</p>

4

<p>e - no soc prob
d</p>

<p>Hey guys, the correct answer for the cr question is E and the last one is D.
But I still have problems with the cr question. I also chose E just because my mind tells me to chose it. can u guys explain for me when is the primary purpose of passage to analyze something?
Plsssss</p>

<ol>
<li><p>E. It is not a “widespread social problem” because it’s not a social problem at all. Also, the passage is basically dedicated to proposing a plan that would ban spamming by law.</p></li>
<li><p>D. “They” is ambiguous in the other two choices (could refer to both women and colleges). Also, D just sounds much better.</p></li>
</ol>

<p>Often introductory paragraphs focus in on a final thesis statement that serves as a transition into an expanded discussion of the thesis. The last sentence of the passage makes it clear that the next paragraph will most likely expand the idea of writing and passing such a law.</p>

<p>Does ‘they’ refer to the women or the colleges? It appears in both of the wrong answer choices.</p>
