March SAT CR Thread

<p>“the main idea was about use of cameras in court”</p>

<p>Although both passages constantly used the term “camera”, I believe the real issue was TV broadcasting. So that’s what I put… TV broadcasting of trials.</p>

<p>Hmm… I don’t remember this option. Is that exactly what the choice was? I think it was mainly about the cameras in the trial though; they even talked about how the cameras distracted the people in the court, etc. </p>

<p>“Decorative style of England contrasted painters style”</p>

<p>What was the exact answer choice for this? I remember seeing something about decorative style of England/America and thinking it was wrong because it had “America” in it, and the passage was talking about London.</p>

<p>I’m pretty sure that was the exact answer choice, or very close. The painter’s style was different from the decorative style of England.</p>

<p>“Unpretentious manner is the style of the painter”</p>

<p>I’m not too sure what the other choices were. This is actually a question I am wondering about as well. I think one of the other choices was imitative?</p>

<p>I think the answers for the cameras in court were</p>

<p>“cameras distract the people in court” (which was wrong)</p>

<p>and something about publicizing court trials (which was right)</p>

<p>I agree with the “Decorative style of England contrasted painters style”, wasnt it American and England, so that couldnt have been the choice, there was a better one choice but i dont remember, but im pretty sure it said american and england</p>

<p>I agree with TV publicizing of court trials
i think something later in the camera question made it wrong
does anyone know what -4 or 5 in CR will be</p>

<p>@Sententia: yes, I believe you are correct here… </p>

<p>@alihaq: </p>

<p>I believe choice A or B was about cameras in court rooms, and B or C was about publicizing them through TV.</p>

<p>Also, for the painter question, the answer choices clearly mentioned America in it… but I don’t recall anything in the passage about the decorative style of America.</p>

<p>@jj:</p>

<p>Yeah, I also remember putting something about contrasting the painter’s style… but I also remember NOT picking the answer choice with “America” in it.</p>

<p>I don’t remember what I put for the TV one. Now that I think of it though, I remember putting something about broadcasting on TV…</p>

<p>There was a choice with America and England in it. I think in the first few sentences, it mentioned something about how the painter lived in America at some point, maybe? I don’t think that was the answer though.</p>

<p>exactly, so that is wrong, why is it on the consolidated list?, unless one said America/England and another just said England, i still dont remember -_-</p>

<p>@jj:</p>

<p>I don’t think the answer choice I put used “England” at all… it was only about contrasting styles.</p>

<p>if the choice with the camera was “cameras distract the people in court”, then the answer is definitely TV publicizing trials. I don’t remember exactly what I put. darn.</p>

<p>yeah i do remember something with “contrasting”,</p>

<p>The answers on the consolidated list are only vague recalls of the actual wordings. For the English painting one, the answer just mentioned how that style of painting contrasted/was different from the painter from the passages style.</p>

<p>yeah but the answer choice was like “it was a dominant (or something to that effect) style of painting in England and America”. The passage did talk about American but it was about something else.</p>

<p>I think the answer is “contradicted the painter’s style” because it said that the painter applied realism even in his early artwork. which also makes his style “unpretentious”</p>

<p>About the question the authors disagreed on…does anyone remember what the other choices were?</p>

<p>so does anyone feel the vocab was what killed them to?</p>

<p>@thrill3rnite, “Contrasting the painters style/different from the painters style” is the answer on the consolidated list…</p>

<p>u don’t have the question on how the second author thought tv did just as much harm as other mediums.</p>

<p>The Question about the main idea of the TV court passage was: use of cameras in courts, i don’t think there was anything about “distracting”.</p>

<p>So, since both passages were mainly talking about the effects of using cameras to film trials. (P1 said cameras were bad, and they shouldn’t be used) (P2 said cameras are good and be left up to the judges’ discretion)</p>

<p>no, it was definitely “the cameras are distracting to people in court” or something along those lines, the right answer had something to do with tv broadcasting/publicizing trials.</p>

<p>any ideas on what the curve might be?</p>
