<p>What prediction would you guys give for a -15 on CR?</p>
<p>Yeah, it was definitely an example.</p>
<p>Does anyone know what the answer was for that question that was like why does the author say “Imagine that!” or whatever for the AFrica passage?</p>
<p>I think it was exhorting us to enter the sailors’ viewpoint. “Imagine!”</p>
