March SAT CR Thread

<p>Something about television or programs being televised.</p>

<p>btbang: there was an answer that said dinosaurs walk with their toes open</p>

<p>Got it, thank you everyone.</p>

<p>Hmm, I want to discuss one of our consolidated answers.</p>

<p>The question in the Africa passage with the line reference: “The Europeans did not understand the logic of the land. Thus they stole fruit, not realizing they had stolen from women’s gardens…” - What does this imply?</p>

<p>This is one of two questions I got wrong. But I’m not completely sure. Everyone seems to have chosen that it implies that Europeans had different assumptions about how gardens should look.</p>

<p>However, it seems to me that the Europeans did not even recognize the gardens (they did not understand the “logic of the land”). This was also one of the last questions in that section, so I expected it to be more tricky. The “different assumptions” answer was very direct. </p>

<p>I chose the option with “it implies that they did not recognize the natural boundaries.” Thus, they stole fruit from the women’s gardens.</p>

<p>The answer from pcarlitz on page 63 can be added to consolidated list.</p>

<p>Yes? What’s your question?</p>

<p>@Opie: please write out the question/answer, if you remember.</p>

<p>Characterless</p>

<p>Superficial/Cursory</p>

<p>Feigned/Hypocrisy</p>

<p>Social</p>

<p>Inconclusive/fruitless</p>

<p>for any of the following vocab words, does anyone remember any questions they were a part of? i don’t remember if i had these but if u put them back into context i could remember</p>

<p>

That wasn’t one of the options.</p>

<p>Because they had assumptions about what gardens look like, they didn’t recognize it as a garden.</p>

<p>^Characterless was about a building that if put in a different area could be anything.</p>

<p>Superficial/Cursory was about a paper or something that was superficial because it had been cursory.</p>

<p>The option I chose was, “The Europeans did not recognize the natural boundaries.” I believe it was choice E.</p>

<p>Don’t remember the question exactly, but it was one of the court questions. That in lines x-y, the author of passage 2 was saying that “TV is just as biased as other media,” or something near that. It had “media” in it.</p>

<p>Sure, but I think we might actually have this question already. Wasn’t it the one about making a comparison?</p>

<p>Anyone remember details of the answer that was researched overwhelmed mammal research?</p>

<p>Luminouzz the reason the Europeans did not recognize the gardens was because in the story it talked about West African Gardens and they couldn’t imagine them being that way or something?
Does anyone know the answer to the one about the mayor financially planning in the city or something? It was a vocab. The choices were nefarious, munificent, entrepreneurial, and 2 others.</p>

<p>kameron, maybe. Not sure if it was different or not now that I think of it…</p>

<p>The answer to the comparison was simply the lines both make comparisons</p>

<p>

I think that was experimental. I didn’t have it.</p>

<p>^ Yup. The mayor question was experimental. I didn’t have it.</p>

<p>what about the question was where “so and so needed a ________, to create the largest insurance firm in the city” <---- i phrased it wrong, but i put entrepreneurial</p>

<p>I think that’s what I was referring to.</p>

<p>someone post an updated answer list</p>
