<p>can anyone tell me the context of the cost/personal toll question?</p>
<p>i don’t remember it and i’m freaking out…i think i may have skipped it and put the rest of my answers in the incorrect places…</p>
<p>Can anyone remember the question with the answer “defamed”? I know it was something about innocent people? And what were the other answer choices for it?</p>
<p>Also, for the guy turning his back, why wasn’t it “courtesy”?</p>
<p>Can anyone answer the “comparing science to a path” question in the string theory passage? I thought it was the hardest question on the test.</p>
<p>For that Robinson Crusoe, I agree with one Pasternak who said “courteous” instead of “enthusiastic” would be correct. Think about it this way, if it was “enthusiastic,” why woul he decline to write his story in the first place? What do you all think?</p>
<p>Does anyone remember any other answers for the “fierce/contentious” question?
I forget what I put.</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>Mabs - I remember one of the other answers was “corrupted”</p>
<p>She declined to write the story in the first place because it was polite to do so. But she even came out and SAID to the reader that she thought her skills were definitely up to the task and that she really wanted to write it.</p>
<p>^Sorry I meant “poster” instead of “pasternack”.</p>
<p>the sudden bursts were referring to the fits and starts, which referred to the concept of scientific discoveries being very different; some are approved, some are revised, some are discarded. That’s why I put unexpected whims.
I do not remember the passage claiming that science was starting and stopping, rather it was saying that science could be taken in many different ways.</p>
<p>@nocensure, i put enthusiatic because it seemed that he didnt feel that he could ahve done it but the guy, whatever his name was, wanted him to do it. so i was under the feeling that he would be enthused to do it. also, how can you substantiate courteous from the reading?</p>

<p>Look at the words you’re trying to define. When has fit ever meant whimsical? You have to look at EVERYTHING, not just the answers you’re picking from.</p>
<p>@l0rdie</p>
<p>i remember one being accuracy and inexact</p>
<p>and one included conventional as the second word</p>
<p>curve predictions??</p>
<p>@hotinpursuit</p>
<p>“fits and starts” just wasn’t referring to the fact that scientific discoveries were different. the passage was saying that it starts in fits and starts, and then went on to explain how some are discarded. they were two different ideas.</p>
<p>@hotinpursuit: it was not fierce but ferocity/contentious</p>
<p>2)passage 1 says reason string theory is hard to prove is because of complexity of mathematics</p>
<p>3)innocent people were defamed</p>
<p>Why are they not “arbitrary” for the first and “guilt” for the second?</p>
<p>did you guys get an answer with scope in it?</p>
<p>Like I said, unexpected whims would encompass both sudden bursts and fits and starts, etc. so it wouldn’t make sense to follow it with starts. Fits=sudden bursts.</p>
<p>there was also children’s books which are fanciful/exploit</p>
