Nov 09 Maria.Tsunagi Critical Reading Section

<p>Does anyone remember the question involving puerile as a word(it was sentence completion). And for hubris, did that word go along with the biography writer section or the japanese girls. I’m trying to cut my losses, since one of them are experiemental so yea.</p>

<p>@toasti
restoring modern buildings for the paragraph is EXPERIMENTAl</p>

<p>@consolingrave1 </p>

<p>i don’t remember purile as a word</p>

<p>and hubris was one of the sentence completion choices</p>

<p>For the one where people are arguing between “bewilderment” and “rebuke”, is it possible that the answer is “mournful reproach”? Because she’s sad/mourning her own losses and angry at Maria for saying these things.</p>

<p>I had two grid-in math sections so I’m assuming one of them was experimental.</p>

<p>jenx, it doesn’t suggest that the quote is mournful. The tone isn’t sad or anything like that. You could infer, after reading more of the passage, that she was mournful, but the quote itself doesn’t show that she is.</p>

<p>College Board is evil, lol.</p>

<p>@jackbenimble4 i think so. did u also have shopping psychology as ur writing paragraph correction?</p>

<p>Ah, thank you Marshmellowman. </p>

<p>I hate them.</p>

<p>Yeah, I did have the shopping psychology paragraph correction.</p>

<p>what is the answer for “literature attitude” one?</p>

<p>Ycm - which question exactly? Not sure what you’re referring to.</p>

<p>its one of the questions from tv vs reading passage</p>

<p>@ycm1957 i think it had to do with sustain skepticism while reading.</p>

<p>For literature attitude, the answer was something about the ability to think critically about what you read and judge its worth.</p>

<p>Edit: What dlightextract said.</p>

<p>Agree with dlightextract.</p>

<p>For that passage, did you get the “barrier between children and adults” question as “natural…biological” or “demarcation between readers who can think critically?”</p>
