<p>hm I remember completely running out of time and picking alliteration/assonance b/c it was choice A and that was the only one I checked. there was definitely alliteration but not sure about assonance… </p>
<p>oh right the flower and clear bowl. i figured it was about the desire to be perfect, then realization that imperfect is better. i don’t really remember any of the questions for that one. </p>
<p>the woman about adultery was from othello! I remember reading it in class last year…hopefully i didn’t get any of those wrong. Was “galls” about sentiments/feelings or sexual desires?</p>
<p>Gall I put desires, even though it may have seemed a bit redundant.
What did you guys put for the symbolism of “flawed words and stubborn sounds” question? I chose poetry but it didn’t seem quite right.</p>
<p>For gall, I actually put the choice with ire and annoyance or something like that</p>
<p>For the flawed words and stubborn sounds, I said paradise (I believe the poem itself said something like, we find delight in the imperfection of flawed words and stubborn sounds, and above those last 3 lines it said imperfection is paradise). </p>
<p>I also put alliteration and assonance, but I wasn’t sure if the endrhyme counted as assonance…?</p>
<p>Adoration and creative impasse for the poem with the Muse and the lover and whatnot</p>
<p>Edit: @dzzallday, I believe the other choices were like the mind, poetry, paradise… I don’t remember the other two sorry ):</p>

I had no idea what that statement meant. I omitted that one. If someone remembers the answer choices that would be helpful. This was my first time taking the Literature test and it seemed really difficult. I could not interpet the citizen sparrow poem at all, and the poem about the bowl and flowers was also difficult to interpret. The curve better be generous.</p>
<p>@choo14: I put that first for gall but changed it to sexual desire b/c I have read that play before and it went better with the general theme, but I’m not too sure. Anyone elses opinions on that one?? </p>
<p>I put poetry for “flawed words and stubborn sounds” … but that was a last-minute scramble/guess. It doesn’t really make sense I suppose, but I figured the title of the poem said “Climate of Poetry” or something so not sure… </p>
<p>the “evil compounded, vital I”… I remember the qts but not the answers sorry</p>
<p>I said the Citizen Sparrow represented a pompous public commentator or something like that - only because I felt like the poem was about someone who criticized what another person had to do do …</p>
<p>I also thought it was incredibly difficult. The prose passages were fine, but every poem was difficult, for me, to interpret, and I thought that there were many questions where the answer could have gone either way. I know the curve on the literature subject tests are usually pretty harsh, but hopefully if many people thought this may test was difficult, it will be better for this particular test.</p>
