<p>^^Phone- I said it brings them bck to normal events or something.
For somewhere I said that it removed them from the events of the outside world or something.</p>
<p>The phone rang to bring themselves back to the mundane things in the world.</p>
<p>On a side note, I read this whole passage in school before which was cool :)</p>
<p>I said it applied to a ship in storm and any person in deep thought. The Pequod was just a metaphor.</p>
<p>And I said that collisions where interactions that disrupted harmony, or something like that.</p>
<p>For the boat one - the last half of the passage compared the sea to freedom. Do you remember it talking about how ships, like the guy it mentioned, fight against the wind that takes them home, and how even though the shore is safe, real freedom lies in the sea? That’s why I’m iffy about the immortality one… anyone remember the guy’s name? Lmao I’ll google him.</p>
<p>I know right? They’re not subject tests, but SUBJECTIVE tests. But i’m SURE it was the harmony one, because it talked about unnecessary fights</p>
<p>^^</p>
<p>for the phone ringing, I put to put an abrupt end to their illusion, or something.</p>
<p>Yeah, this was a million times harder than the CR on SAT I -__-
Anyway, all I got from google was that the Pequod was the ship from Moby-Dick.</p>
<p>Ugh, I wish we could explain to CB our reasoning for each answer choice, because it’s so subjective! What THEY think is right isn’t always the BEST in EVERYONE’s point of view.</p>
<p>LMAO, exactly. Anyway, what was the guy’s name?! Bick…something. Something with a B and a K!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I said any ship in a storm. The answer you picked was tempting me, but I didn’t get how what he was saying could be applied to a person (even one of “deep thought”). I thought he was only talking about ships.</p>
<p>^^^ I put down just a ship too; I think it could be applied to a person, but the whole “deep thought” thing was throwing me off. It didn’t really reference anyone in deep thought throughout the passage.</p>
<p>huh, didn’t pick that</p>
<p>Guys, it said “That ship as it tossed and turned”. I was going to say “any ship” but it was more specific.</p>
<p>The ship had to be a metaphor, considering the Pequod was Moby-Dick’s ship, but the passage itself didn’t come from Moby-Dick.</p>
<p>It’s also about people, because he later talks about discovering deepest truth or something through deep thought…</p>
<p>interesting</p>
<p>Yeah, but those lines refer to simply that ship. You gotta be careful with CB reading sections.</p>
<p>Blah, I think I’m gonna leave now. I’m only stressing myself out, and this one isn’t like the Math board… no way to know how many right/wrong for sure. </p>
<p>Raw score of 49 is about 750. I skipped 3, so I can get another 8 wrong… here’s to hoping -_-</p>
<p>The passage after is talking about people in deep thought/the soul, so I thought that the passage in question was using Pequod as a metaphor…</p>
<p>Am I allowed to paste the passage on here?</p>
<p>^agree, there is no way of knowing if people here are right or wrong, no matter how solid their case may seem, CB always manages to trick most</p>
<p>i need 700+, so about 45 sounds reasonable? not that i got that many wrong ( i hope )</p>
<p>I’m using my Kaplan book as a reference point, and the lowest raw score for 700 according to them is 43!
Lmao, I always thought CR was super easy, and I figured this wouldn’t be that different. Clearly I was wrong.</p>
