<p>CR was never easy for me, but literature was definitely harder! There’s almost no modern literature in most practice lit tests, and there are poems (which aren’t in CR)</p>
<p>This test was so hard… I felt like a lot of the questions had multiple answers that could be correct.</p>
<p>For the stupid dialogue passage, did anyone put down for that question about exercise the answer that said something about how the guy hadn’t exercised much before?</p>
<p>^I put that he would satisfy her request for healthy exercise or something, because first she says he should exercise, then the guy is like you’ll see me at blahblahblah</p>
<p>I put he was replying with a witty saying. Who knows tho…</p>
<p>This test was pretty brutal although i thought the ship passage was one of the easier passages… the last passage was awful for me</p>
<p>So many of the answers were subject to interpretation. Ugh.</p>
<p>I thought that the man/woman, speaker/lover, stars were easy, and South African ball dancing, farming were average, however I thought that the Bulkington & empress passages were really tough.</p>
<p>What was the answer for the question in the ball room dance one, where it asked what “collisions” (something like that) represented. One of the answer choices was like peaceful conflicts. Thought that was the hardest question on the test.</p>
<p>This test was definitely brutal although I still hope to do well… With regards to the collisions, I put it hurt innocent bystanders. I remember the passage mentioning something about conflicts affecting civilians. I may be wrong…</p>

<p>For the conversation with the man and woman, I was totally confused. On the first reading, it seemed like it was just some normal conversation between two people who just met. But after reading through the questions and rereading the passage, I got the sense that they were being totally sarcastic or something, especially because of the italics on “me” and “you”</p>
<p>Here’s my list so far:</p>
<p>Ballroom Dancing and politics:</p>
<p>1) Collision - break up harmony
2) What was the phone ringing?</p>
<p>The Boat</p>
<p>1) Becoming immortal
2) Applied to just the Pequod</p>
<p>Conversation between man and woman</p>
<p>1) acquaintances
2) Self sacrificing</p>
<p>Woman musician</p>
<p>1) Somewhere’s implied obscurity</p>
<p>I thought the phone ringing referred to bringing them back to the mundane world?</p>
<p>I put wily adversaries…but can someone justify their answer?</p>
<p>And i cant remember which poem but for one it asked where the major break in structure was? Does anyone remember that one?</p>
<p>I put b/t 8 & 9</p>
<p>:/ Do you remember why?. I couldn’t tell a difference except maybe between 4/5 or 12/13 but then again i was guessing…</p>
<p>between 8/9 there was a colon where the the poet transitioned to talking about how he felt.</p>
<p>Does that count as structure? I thinkn I noticed frequent use of dashes in the first 4 which led me to choose that… Isn’t that more “structural”? And thanks for your replies :)</p>
<p>yes @goldysocks & enfieldacademy
same :)</p>
<p>guys I just remembered some of the questions</p>
<ol>
<li>for the blues one was one of the answers “eagerness to forget the outside world?”</li>
</ol>
<p>The farmer one
- farmers tone towards the person (can’t remember the name…): disdain?
- what was the contrast for lust? I put conservatism</p>
<p>why did willy say something like “romance!” on the first line?
I put… can’t remeber but I think it was to contrast between the actual situation and the situation they would like it to be…?</p>
<p>what did “mourning” ment?</p>
<p>for the lithograph… I put social institutions or something bu 95% sure i am wrong</p>
<p>and for the ship one, he was literally going back to the sea after 4years on sea right?
I thinnk that’s one of the questions…</p>
<p>^same for farmer & sea</p>
<p>up201 - I answered the ones I was more sure about.</p>
<p>
that’s what I put, but that question troubled me. It wanted you to make an inference on
farmer 1’s feelings towards farmer 2 based off lines 5-6. Lines 5-6 stated farmer 1’s belief that an engineering degree is worthless, even at ______, because you don’t learn how to fix your own tractor. It’s also said before that that the farmer 2 prefers animals to machines. </p>
<p>
me too!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>yep. contrast between the desired and the actual or something.</p>
