<p>Why was it a factory?
Why was it nursery?
what language does - gather up small advancements something like that…
what does the woman think we should learn from the zees? (I think it was the last question)</p>

<p>Guys lets keep trying to remember what was on the test! WE’re nearly there!</p>

<p>For one of the questions about chimpanzees, the question was along the lines of " What is the purpose of language?"</p>

<p>I put it gathers "small,individual accomplishments into large, collective ones. Is this right?</p>

<p>I think something like that noncensure! but I’m sure I saw advancement in the sentence…</p>

<p>Oh yeah, I forgot even I did.</p>

<p>For the mother-daughter passage, what were the other choices for the “prudent” question? and was this question number 18 or something? and was “prudent” choice (B)?</p>

<p>(because I can’t remember what I put for this one, and I remember fidgeting around question 18)… thanks!!</p>

<p>why would it be growing alarm? what was he alarmed about? it clearly said he was following the guys story, but had yet to see his role in it yet. that is definitely momentary perplexity</p>

<p>True that, momentary perplexity.
Also, some others feel wrong. I’m no vocab whiz but are you sure the first 4 (minus ostensibly) are correct? Ludicrously… tycoon…?
Oh and any chance the “factory” question was “highly regimented life”? I hated that question. Couldn’t figure out if it was regimented life or productive collaboration.</p>

<p>wait, since when did we change succinctly into ludicrously?</p>

<p>it’s definitely succinctly because (as people said before) it discussed about the economy of … (here, economy means frugality, not wasteful management).</p>

<p>Yes Im still pretty sure its succintly and not ludicrously. Also the one with the plagerize, why wasnt it contradict, because I believe thats what I put.</p>

<p>@duermomucho: I think I remember nominal being one with two blanks, but I’m not positive. I don’t remember the question, sorry.</p>
