<p>Does CollegeBoard EVER come out with a key??</p>
<p>On the question in the cave passage about G’s views on Passage’s ones characterization of the textbook images, I remember that the 2nd passage explicitly said that the real, typical playful doodles are not recognzied by art historians, only the more beautiful images… therefore I think its should be “accomplished artists” because he doesn’t dismiss their work as bad, but instead says that the just do not adequately reflect the real body of work.</p>
<p>Everyone the answer was not sympathetic bc that choice said the historians were interested in the definition of the ART. The passage said that the historians were interested in how art was the KEY to the entire PALEOTONIC(sp?) culture</p>
<p>No, Guthrie would not have regarded the people who made the cave paintings as “accomplished artists.” “Accomplished” means that they were successful, preeminent in their culture, etc.–his entire argument was that they were not.</p>
<p>And still hoping it wasn’t sympathetic, though I don’t remember what I chose for that one.</p>
<p>@Johnny I am 99.99% sure it wasn’t accomplished artist. G was def stating that the painters were playful teenagers and there was no sign for " accomplished artist"; moreover, the central point wasn’t on a timeline, which is somewhat the central point of “early attempts”. I do think " natural historian" was a much better option since G said that those paintings depicted the natural features and animals those teenagers saw and represented the natural feature of the day.</p>
<p>what exactly was the accomplished artists question? i still can’t remember what i put…</p>
<p>@rxin94 - it was sympathetic, it asked how the historians would feel about there being a grand meaning behind the paintings. they were sympathetic because they believed the same thing and could not figure out what the meaning was.</p>
<p>@Vivizzz- I get what you are saying, but the specific line reference that the question was referring to was the textbook pictures not painting in general. In that context, he said that art historians overlook the body of work of the majority of playful teenagers’ paintings and instead focus on only a few works of art. In his mind these textbook pictures do not provide much value to the study of “natural history” because they are not indicative of real paintings and instead are a select few of the more impressive works of art. </p>
<p>I just remember a few lines toward the middle of the passage where he references other art historians as emblematic of the status quo (like the textbooks). I agree with you that the REAL “teenager” paintings are natural history, but the question asked about “textbooks.”</p>

<p>Cave Paintings Passage (10)
- Credibility
- Aesthetic power( this one is quite debatable. I put diversity of content and I am trying to recall some more concrete evidence)
- Beauty is eternal: reverent
- Playfully careless
- Sympathetic( there’s still debate about this one but the correct answer is most likely sympathetic)
- General agreement( is this the final consensus? I put cautious acceptance… Could anyone address this one plz?)
- Evocative and moving
- emphasize paradox
- Gifted artists of the Paleolithic period ( this is most likely author 1’s point and the correct answer. But further debate is needed)
-natural historian( other options were: early attempts by accomplished artists , data for art historians)</p>
<p>Looking for more…</p>
<p>I didn’t put general agreement for that one. The first passage didn’t mention anything about the identity of the artists so I figured they would respond with indifference. This one is really debatable, which is why I hate college board >.> I feel like indifferce, cautious agreement, and general agreement all would have made sense…</p>
<p>Purpose: don’t really remember the options, but it was def NOT how the author became interested in whales</p>
<p>^ something similar to what this whale question was asking (what the passage seemed most like) had 3 out there answers (including how the author became interested in whales, i believe) and 2 “reasonable” ones, A and B. I’m pretty sure I put in A because I remember seeing B defining the passage as something more of a “research report” or “research account.” A was literally “describing” something about whales, but i remember putting that as the answer. does this jog anyones memory by any chance?</p>
<p>does anyone remember the sentence completion question that the answer was…
small/functional</p>
<p>i thought sentence completions were much easier than march.</p>
<p>Whales Passage
- Purpose: A personal account from a scientist studying whales
- Mentioned all EXCEPT motivation to study whales (I don’t recall this very clearly but I think I put something like"WHY the author switched to whale study", could someone plz address this one?) > I definitely remember that the answer was the reason why she switched to studying whales (after studying experimental subjects like bats/owls). </p>
<p>Still not sure about general agreement (so darn subjective =_=). I picked it because even though Passage 2 talked about a guy who didn’t think cave art was special, the author of Passage 2 ended with his own opinion that the art still makes people feel emotional. And stuff. (Did the question mention specific lines? Like 87-91 or something?)</p>
<p>@yoursky: I don’t remember the answer to the question, but I feel like it was A. I remember crossing out everything under it as I was reading.</p>
<p>1) was the salsa one experimental
2)if I paid the extra 18$ for the thing, does that mean I will get the questions sent to me?</p>
<p>i also put “diversity of content” for the paintings one, even if it was talking about a lack of diversity. i felt that the word “diversity” could also be referring to the lack of it in that context.
whoever also said that theoretical training preceded the formal training for the jazz one, FINALLY SOMEONE ALSO REMEEMBER THAT, i also put that one</p>
<p>and finally, could someone phrase the question for the “gifted artists of the paleolithic period for me?”
and which question had the answer choice “familiar techniques?”</p>
<p>I disagree with both of the Jazz answers. For the first, I never got the feeling that Jazz was very demanding, just that it should be approached from a different direction (conservatory to refine music skills versus making a unique connection with your instrument), but I forget what I put for that question. For the second, I believe the passage said something along the lines of each person needing to make their own connection to their instrument, to which I thinkthe answer would have been whatever had the word “distinctive” in it (“Every Jazz artist has a distinctive style”?).</p>
<p>skipblooms: YES! that’s the answer i put! haha thank you!</p>
<p>and i think what you wrote and what the answer choice is are the same thing O_O maybe it’s worded slightly differently here so that you don’t recognize it but i’m fairly certain they’re the same thing. i had that same logic too and i remember writing that answer choice down.</p>
<p>(I’m also having a bit of difficulty remembering my choices/accepting the accuracy of the jazz passage answers)</p>
<p>1) was the salsa one experimental
2)if I paid the extra 18$ for the thing, does that mean I will get the questions sent to me?</p>
<p>Uhg, I thought the passage about whales talked a lot about why the author chose to study whales… a la “I thought they were boring/difficult to study because of the passiveness required but then I realized that it was a good challenge.”</p>
<p>Jazz passage talked about how you can learn the basics of jazz then move on to “do your own thing.” I don’t think those can really be equated with theoretical and then formal training.</p>
<p>does anyone remember other SC ques?</p>
