OK PEEPS.
WHICH BRAVE MAN AMONGST YOU WENT THROUGH THIS UNHOLY TRIAL OF WORDS.
Please post the answers you remember and the passagess that you can recollect. The test was WAY tougher than the diag tests in Kaplan and Princeton review. Useless books…
But anyways please also try to find the passages in the net(if u took the test obvio). I am SO nervous, Even filled some answers on the whim…
Why thost thee not opening thy heart
For I is breaking down part to part.
A reply s’all I yearn
Or else in the hells of anxiety, I shalt burn
Failed it
some of the passages I remember are:
yellow ID card
painter comparing art to the skull artist
charles on fire
censorship of books
lady blount or whatever her name is
does anyone remember any others?
guys charles was on fire right
the test was definitely easier than the barrons tests, but still hard
For the “glove of eeriness” one (or something along those lines), the answer was that the alcohol was on his arm and his arm appeared on fire – which made it look ethereal…
Do any of you know what the central contrast was in the Lady Blount (I don’t remember her name exactly) poem? The answers were City vs Country, Joy vs Sadness, Past vs Present, …
i said joy vs sadness but i think its city vs country. also i didnt say ethereal honestly i screwed up on the charles one
there was one question where i was between onomatopoeia and metonymy did anyone else get metonymy? another option was epic simile
I think I answered internal rhyme for that one, but I may be wrong.
For the passage about the girl in the country, does anybody remember the answer to the question about the qualities both the author and the girl share? The only answer choice I remember was the one that I had put, which was a that they both cared for each other. Also, in the question asking whose perspective the “dear” reflected, was the answer the young woman?
I said spark for the dear question. for what the author and girl share wasn’t that an except question?
It was internal rhyme and city vs country.
I put the young woman for “dear” but I might be wrong.
I’m pretty sure the qualities they share one was “the girl and the author both address each other affectionately” or something like that.
for the questions mentioned, I put city vs. country, internal rhyme, the young woman, and the girl and the author address each other affectionately.
How is it internal rhyme?? U guys sure?? And metonymy is most probably right( for metonymy vs epic simile question), I also didn’t even understand what that poem about country girl is trying to say… So just winged the questions are quickly.
Also in the painter question…
Is he praising the works of a masterpiece
It was internal rhyme. The rhyme was between increase and something else. can’t remember
I got internal rhyme, city vs country, and young woman. and for the one that said what qualities do the speaker and woman share, wasn’t it an except question? i remember it saying “the speaker and woman share all of the following qualities EXCEPT” and they did both address each other affectionately
for the “glove of eeriness” one i put that alcohol on his arm was burning
if i skipped 5 and got 2-3 wrong what would that be
what did you guys get for the question in the passage about spiders/yellow card, that was like “which statements are true about the line ‘the spiders are indelicate’?” I put 1 and 3, that its tone contrasts with what the children said and that it was an understatement of how the speaker really felt. did anyone else put that
Hey guys for the oassage on the yellow id card, what was the effect of the word quaint?
Also passage on charles on fire, there was this question asking what “he was flesh again” mean? What did you guys put?
First passage. Why does the mirror prefer another face?
Also last question for the passage on censorship. One of the options was “conviction about the vitality if books”
@curlypie99 how did the young woman address the speaker affevtionately?
