May SAT French Discussion

<p>I said the people were like a fountain.</p>

<p>But what about the next question, the one about why she thought Parisians were “pressent” or something like that. What did you guys put for that one?</p>

<p>(As a side note, I don’t think I left any blank. But I always pick an answer if I’ve eliminated one, so that’s not really a good indicator of how well I thought I did.)</p>

<p>It was </p>

<p>yeah, sylvie, I put the one about the boiling too, but I was’nt too sure about that</p>

<p>And for the pressent one, I think it was because they have a lot of problems, since in the text it mentioned “soucis”, meaning ‘concern’</p>

<p>I also had some questions:</p>

<ol>
<li><p>do you remember the advertisement about the watch? Was the first question that the people “controle le temps?”</p></li>
<li><p>for the ad about the woman and the houses, the second questions was like, “what do we learn about the houses?” what was that one?</p></li>
<li><p>for the story about the two girls who talk about their names, does the guy when he invites them into his office give off an authoritative air?</p></li>
</ol>

<ol>
<li><p>I said “controle le temps,” too.</p></li>
<li><p>I have no idea; I don’t even remember what I put. That was a tough one.</p></li>
<li><p>I said authoritative.</p></li>
</ol>

<p>Ohh, phew! I thought it may mean “success” at first, but because of the second part of the sentence I chose problems… </p>

<ol>
<li><p>I remember that! I wanted to kill that passage… I put down control the time too, which is what it seemed to imply. </p></li>
<li><p>The answer was "Elles ont une pi</p></li>
</ol>

<p>hm, i also put fountain but only cuz i had no idea what the words in the passage meant.</p>

<p>then i put parisians had problems cuz of souci too. </p>

<p>and really, l’aube? cuz i think l’aurore also means dawn which is weird o_0 i dunno how it works…</p>

<p>then the watch, i didn’t put controle le temps cuz i thought *** does that mean. i dun remember what i actually put though</p>

<p>houses i think i put that they were like old fashioned or classic fashioned or whatever it said…</p>

<p>and i put authoritative air.</p>

<p>oh sheez i just remembered, is it une piece or une chambre or une salle or something else? XD fail</p>

<p>i put “salle”
i also said authoritative.
i don’t think i put “controle le temps”…? i put un montre.</p>

<p>it was faire brouillir? damn i put faire brouillant, which i guess doesn’t even make sense.
do you always say – apres AVOIR or is it apres something else?</p>

<p>what did the two little girls have in common?</p>

<p>According to word reference they both mean dawn… so if they were both on the test then collegeboard is really stupid lol.</p>

<p>Une pi</p>

<p>I said the girls didn’t like school, but I didn’t understand that passage, other than the dialogue at the end.</p>

<p>On side note, who’s taking the AP exam tomorrow!</p>

<p>Ugh I’m taking the AP tomorrow… on the SAT II I put “salle” instead of "pi</p>

<p>oooh i put une montre too. and i put they both hate their names too. </p>

<p>does anyone remember the cat scratching or something one? i dunno the answer to that either (i think i skipped it)</p>

<p>and yeah, i’m taking AP too! gahhhhh i’ll just hope hope hope for the best, just like with everything else…</p>

<p>i’m pretty sure the answer to the one you’re talking about is “taper,” to hit - the cat was doing something “avec ses pattes,” which are paws, so it couldn’t be l</p>

<p>also I’m fairly sure the one asking what the passengers were compared to was bouilloire, kettle.
because she talked about how it was as if something was boiling up inside them and escaping their mouths jets of vapor, which is what kettles do. it wouldn’t be a fountain, because fountains shoot water, not vapor.</p>

<p>on that one fill in the blank part where it was talking about making like a mushroom something haha do yall remember if yall use ayant…? or a different verb at the end</p>

<p>apres ayant something?
i put apres ayant, but i think it’s apres avoir…</p>

<p>I’m pretty sure it’s “apres avoir,” as it usually is.</p>

<p>how bout the one about shoes? like his shoes don’t fit… they’re etroit maybe? </p>

<p>or something with the word veille in an answer?</p>

<p>XD im so vague…</p>

<p>lizthemon i know the question you’re referring to but I had no idea… I put something like "cir</p>

<p>Well, I think narrow could be it… shoes can be narrow or wide!</p>

<p>the shoes one was definitely </p>
