<p>YES!! DEFERENTIAL!</p>

<p>I mulled over that for like at least 5 minutes…haha.</p>

<p>I remember that question with the answer “prudent” too, you are correct.</p>

<p>What did ‘want’ mean in the Diamonds passage?</p>

<p>I said lack of</p>

<p>^requirement i think</p>

<p>vocab:
ostensibly?</p>

<p>passages:

  1. chimpanzees
  2. physics string theory
  3. stolen diamond</p>

<p>author of passage 2 would be in complete agreement
butler was deferential at lawyer
prudent
‘want’ means desire/lack of?
superhuman computer represents lack of technology to use it as a tool</p>

<p>keep adding</p>

<p>I put lack for want</p>

<p>I chose requirement but it was a hard question and I don’t think that I am correct.</p>

<p>I said lack because future generations would want it, and since there was a lack of it, they should make one.</p>

<p>But my rationale could be incorrect.</p>

<p>for want, i think i guessed desire… :frowning: wrong i think…</p>

<p>sentence completion:
ostensibly?</p>

<p>passages:

  1. chimpanzees
  2. physics string theory
  3. stolen diamond w/ lawyer and butler</p>

<p>author of passage 2 would be in complete agreement
butler was deferential at lawyer
prudent
‘want’ means desire/lack of?
superhuman computer represents lack of technology to use it as a tool
passage 2 would say that the mathematicians and physicians should pursue a different topic
“as soon as he turned his back” showed his eagerness
the quote from robert crusoe represented an omen</p>

<p>keep adding</p>

<p>want = lack</p>

<p>squalid</p>

<p>ostensible</p>

<p>prudent</p>

<p>deferential</p>

<p>want = lack</p>

<p>oh yeah what was up with ostensibly? I put that but I don’t know if it’s correct.</p>

<p>And passage 2 would say that the mathematicians and physicsts should pursue new AVENUES of science…correct?</p>

<p>growing alarm</p>

<p>ostensibly</p>

<p>I put pursue new avenues as well!</p>

<p>@ Paki Ostensibly is right. And I don’t think it was avenues. I think it was the other choice C* I think.</p>

<p>It was either interdisplinary or avenues. I went with avenues.</p>

<p>what did the quote represent?</p>
