March SAT CR Thread

<p>There was one question oriented around two contrasting viewpoints of filming in court cases. Did both viewpoints agree that filming could serve as a benefactor for an education purpose when the case involves or has an effect on the public?</p>

<p>^ I think that was the right answer</p>

<p>Wartsandall: Yes, that’s in the consolidated answers.</p>

<p>Can anyone confirm my film adaptation question?</p>

<p>Wasn’t there one question that involved what the maps served purpose as? Is that what the last portion of that list is relevant to?</p>

<p>Yes, it’s already in the consolidated list: “Legends fill in for blank areas in map”</p>

<p>Thanks for the clarification. </p>

<p>Out of the 11 that we need, do you know how many questions we are missing per passage?</p>

<p>I think it’s 1 on the films section, maybe a couple more vocab, 2 more on the painter section, and a couple more on the other longer sections.</p>

<p>Can anyone confirm my alternative films question?</p>

<p>Q: The authors of passage 1 and 2 would most likely agree that?</p>

<p>Options include:

  1. more loyal films are more successful
  2. simply comparison of differences isn’t the most valuable</p>

<p>I chose (2), any other people?</p>

<p>kameronsmith: now i remember the question!
on the film section it was number 9 and the answer is B!</p>

<p>Does anyone remember a question on the bottom of the first page of a section where some answer choices were remuneration, levity, and germane? I don’t think any of those were the right answer but I want to know what was</p>

<p>In consolidated list:</p>

<p>"TV Dinners Passage (Short)</p>

<p>Main Idea- to dispel a common misconception
reference to broccoli- provide an example/nature of fresh foods (need more debate on this)"</p>

<p>i believe the example of broccoli was to support something about the nature of fresh foods. the wording was “your supermarket broccoli has probably traveled for days” or something like that. the primary purpose of mentioning broccoli would not be to simply give an example of a vegetable that loses nutrients. they used the example in context in order to show that fresh foods aren’t as nutritious because of all the time they spend oxidating.</p>

<p>^ that is correct.</p>

<p>did anyone get mercurial for an answer or was that an experimental question?</p>

<p>Another consolidated question:</p>

<p>One of the court TV passages had a questions about a word: answer was way </p>

<p>Another one was what would the author of P2 think of what P1 said…unconvinced?</p>

<p>^ wasn’t it asking about “fashion”?</p>

<p>“Imagine!” </p>

<p>Did the answer start with the word "convey?</p>

<p>it was about fashion and the answer was way</p>

<p>Q: The authors of passage 1 and 2 would most likely agree that?</p>

<p>Options include:

  1. more loyal films are more successful
  2. simply comparison of differences isn’t the most valuable</p>

<p>I agree with choice 2.</p>

<p>What do u think -4 or -5 is going to be?</p>

<p>^ then another answer added to the consolidated list! YEAH</p>

<p>does anyone remember a question in the dinosaur question that was like
in the reading, p~ experiment was mentioned and then after several lines it was written ‘by doing the expermient again’ or something
the question was asking what the experiment was i think the answer was A?
the question was on the right page right column i guess…</p>
