<p>Did we ever get a confirmation on which was experimental?</p>
<p>Lemonio you’re wrong on both lol.
We’ll find out in a few weeks time! but you’re wrong.</p>
<p>i remember reading the passage (this is in response to “artificially enhanced” vs “immediately understandable”) and not thinking it was immediately understandable. i was looking at the “computer generated images” and the fact that they were “flattened” (both of which are certainly not natural), hence my answer of 'artificially enhanced." not sure, though.</p>
<p>and it was NOT the words “creative fabrications” (in reference to the biographies about poor kids becoming great artists) and WAS the one with the word “stereotypical” in it right?</p>
<p>its called critical!! reading and all the questions always say “in context”… but then again i’m certain i get a 600</p>
<p>i do not remember the exact text. nevertheless i was certain that it was not immediatly apparent</p>
<p>it said “instantly” …visible or something, but it was a trick question </p>
<p>except for the word instant there was no discussion of the features being immediatly apparent
plus how can they be apparent, you need to study the diagrams first</p>
<p>@masterus who said that we will know anyway…we will not, since the questions which we got wrong are not specified…unless we pay for some stupid packet</p>
<p>and at everyone else those two were trick questions…the words in the text were misleading to the actual meaning. you need to think about the meaning of the whole passage</p>
<p>what was the answer to the question about the paradoxical statement about work in the Namesake paragraph (AKA Nikhil/Gogol)?</p>
<p>It had to be immediately apparent, there was concrete textual evidence around the sentence that the question is based around.</p>
<p>Immediately understandable =/= immediately apparent. If you argue, know what you’re talking about.</p>
<p>@Lemonio, we’ll know when I get a 800 the 3rd time.</p>
<p>oshi- ego. :]
okay sorry for derailing the topic, but I’ll attempt to type up a refutation. un moment s’il vous plait.</p>
<p>If you remember the question number, sure you will. Admiration and artificially enhanced are correct.</p>
<p>You can get an 800 with 1 or 2 wrong. There you go.</p>
<p>Exactly, you can see something, but it doesn’t mean you understand it</p>
<p>for the 1st short passage bout the girl was one of the choices something to do with the behavior?</p>
<p>admiration was incorrect</p>
<p>read this and prove yourself wrong</p>

<p>"Now in the year 1276, in the country of Florence, about fourteen miles from the city, in the village of Vespignano, there was born to a simple peasant named Bondone a son, to whom he gave the name of Giotto, and whom he brought up according to his station. And when he had reached the age of ten years, showing in all his ways though still childish an extraordinary vivacity and quickness of mind, which made him beloved not only by his father but by all who knew him, Bondone gave him the care of some sheep. And he leading them for pasture, now to one spot and now to another, was constantly driven by his natural inclination to draw on the stones or the ground some object in nature, or something that came into his mind. One day Cimabue, going on business from Florence to Vespignano, found Giotto, while his sheep were feeding, drawing a sheep from nature upon a smooth and solid rock with a pointed stone, having never learnt from any one but nature. Cimabue, marvelling at him, stopped and asked him if he would go and be with him. And the boy answered that if his father were content he would gladly go. Then Cimabue asked Bondone for him, and he gave him up to him, and was content that he should take him to Florence. There in a little time, by the aid of nature and the teaching of Cimabue, the boy not only equalled his master, but freed himself from the rude manner of the Greeks, and brought back to life the true art of painting, introducing the drawing from nature of living persons, which had not been practised for two hundred years; or at least if some had tried it, they had not succeeded very happily. Giotto painted among others, as may be seen to this day in the chapel of the Podest</p>
<p>vru;</p>
<p>Independence – her parents were unnerved by her independence because she wouldn’t accept their money.</p>
<p>Immediately apparent = answer</p>
<p>It was NOT ADMIRATION the point of that passage was mocking the way “Great Artists” (even that is sarcastic) were discovered as children and how they magically happened upon their talents. She was comparing how Michelangelo and stereotypical “Great Artist” developed their art in the same way–with this “all of a sudden I can paint” phenomenon…the point wasn’t to indicate admiration but to compare the shocking discovery of Michelangelo artwork to Cimboe’s shocking discovery of Great Artist’s artwork!!!</p>
<p>Lemonio that wasn’t the article…</p>
<p>Primz… you seem to be talking about the wrong question.</p>
<p>It was asking about an analogy between one story to another story. Both stories included admiration.</p>
<p>yea i got independence, but what were the CHOICES for the question before it?</p>
<p>In the nap passage, was the answer to one of the questions something about how a view is shared by many cultures or somethign along those lines?</p>
<p>i can’t remember what the exact question/choices were, but i don’t think it was that one, since in some cultures regular naps are an accepted and even revered part of everyday life, whereas in others (esp. more industrialized, as i think the passage said), naps/tiredness are viewed as a weakness.</p>
<p>Lemonio, i think you’re going too far</p>
<p>the statement was something like “This boy is better than I am”, “I” referring to the teacher and “boy” referring to the poor boy who is artistic. if you’re saying that someone is better than you, especially a master saying it a little kid, there HAS to be some sort of awe and admiration in it.</p>
<p>Thanks aplomb, I think I got that one wrong.</p>
