<p>Do you guys remember the one question in the cloning passage that asked why the author included the quote that said "why would they clone them in the first place", it asked what the chief purpose of including that quote was? </p>
<p>did you say it was to "show the perceived value in someone for cloning" or something similar?</p>
<p>I dont think both assume it is possible. I think it was genetics weren't everything for that one. It was stronger.</p>
<p>"cloning- using michael jordan shows purpose as to why clone"</p>
<p>I don't think that's right, I think the bit about MJ was inserted to show how different a clone can be due to the environment. Some anecdote about an 8 year old MJ wanting to play an instrument instead of play basketball.</p>
<p>The old lady was definitely dejected and isolated.</p>
<p>I also put no error for the marching on DC writing question.</p>
<p>Do any of you recall a double blank concerning a child prodigy (to which the answers were mastery...precocious)?</p>
<p>Holy CRAP I bombed CR</p>
<p>yea hyper, i have that feeling too...sadly</p>
<p>Mrs. D says nice kiddys= implicit critisizem --> If this evokes a response of feeling of being slighted or neglected, isn't it more of a misrepresentation?Slighted- making something important seem slight, or trivializing a emotionally potent event like the vandalizing of her store sign --> Trivialization is MISREPRESENTATION not CRITICISM<br>
The new people were the same people that burned down the narrator's old store- so wouldn't it be a misrepresentation of the new people? Narrator felt slighted as in Neglected...that means that no one understood her problems- no one saw the vandals as who they really were and they falsely painted her as arrogant which was like a total neglect
And....
Wouldn't implicit criticism be more like "Well at least they are very modest" or something</p>
<p>WELL perhaps I'm hallucinating...I missed at least 2 other CR on this passage
I feel stupid for missing the Q's about the social class on this passage</p>
<p>Sorry but I absolutely LOVE to debate questions in CR this way..I'm hyper</p>
<p>The new people weren't vandals becuase they owened the store. The story implied that they had bought it. It was definately implcit criticism becuase Mrs. D felt that her friends were impling that she wasn't nice while the new people were.</p>
<p>i beleive they mentioned mj twice, once was with some othe people like, who would u clone, geniuses, famous people etc, to show that the motivatino to clone woudl be to keep their talents, something like that at least
but when he ways mj could be aviolinist thats for anoter quesiton where i think the answer was that the enviornment plays a role in development</p>
<p>But what about the use of the term "slighted"?</p>
<p>Slighted was I think regarding her husband. But that wasn't part of the passage so that answer was incorrect.</p>
<p>I'm pretty sure that it was "they both assumed cloning would be possible in the future". Both passages talked about cloning and the pros and cons, so obviously, both authors must have thought that cloning humans would eventually be possible.</p>
<p>I recall the term slighted being in the very next line as in..</p>
<p>Paraphrase: THey burned down the old sign and had a new one. A neighbor remarked that they were nice people. I felt slighted by this remark.....
What was the wording of the question for this particular one?</p>
<p>Did the Question ask for the impact of the quote on the narrator?</p>
<p>does anyone know the answers for cultural center/architecture passage??</p>
<p>I think the question about "they are good people, good to the kiddies, good to everyone" asked why the QUOTE caused the Narrator to REACT the way she did?
If this is implicit criticism I am writing a letter to ETS.
Wasn't it misrep...
If it were criticism she would not have really cared, she would not have felt "slighted", because her's daughter's authoritative attitude had already hurt her... how much additional damage could the neighbor's attitude towards her cause
She was injured by her daughter's own criticism. THe narrator would not explicitly state that she was further slighted unless the new remark had a stronger impact-- she was already critized for arrogance, so further criticism would not evoke a powerful response like "slight" in the first place
It had to be something else-- an overall misrepresentation of the vandals that evoked the sudden slighted-ness response compounded with the neglect involved
Emotive Causal analysis led me to conclude "misrep." on the test yesterday</p>
<p>Bump can someone explain why they chose implicit crit. in depth?</p>
<p>I don't know if this is the same as the 'slighted' question but the refernece was to a line that was something like "nice kiddies.. always the same" meaning that they didn't change and Mrs. D. had changed i'm sorry for the mix up if this is not the same question but that's what I remeber about it</p>
<p>Yes that's it!
Always the same was the "MISREPRESENTATION"; the neighbors were not always the same- they went from nice nieghbors to vandals and others refused to see them as vandals makiing the author feel slighted.</p>
