it was #8 sentence completion and it had (decode,hobble,desseminate,…)</p>

<p>I chose jeering, because she was making fun of how the master found his pupil in a rural place with sheep. And michaeangelo wasn’t fortunate enough to have sheep</p>

<p>Definitely “hobble”</p>

<p>the hobble one was about a campaign</p>

<p>It was hobble.</p>

<p>Did anyone get something like “because of its uses with modern technology”? I forgot the wording…</p>

someone get grounded in for the rock one?</p>

<p>I put “landscape…” for that, yet not so sure about that</p>

<p>from wikipedia
To hobble means to walk unevenly, in an impeded manner – or to cause this condition in some other entity.</p>

<p>Ah I didnt put hobble. I thought the guy was trying to “scatter” the chances. Hobble is a better word</p>

<p>what about the Michelle(is it right?)'s parents story in the short passage? 1. Why was the line 2~3 mentioned? to explain the response? 2. Her parents felt uneasy about her “what?” independence? lack of ambition?</p>

<p>The question asked about how the author related women to aristocrats. Their positions in society did not allow them to pursue careers as artists. Due to their positions in society, they could not become artists. It did not talk about art taking too much time; instead, it talked about their duties in society. The answer that mentioned social… was correct.</p>

<p>Yes he did. He said they did not have enough time because of social events, etc. Like I specifically checked to see if he had mentioned anything about it taking too long.</p>

<p>I put independence because she didnt owe anything and wasnt bound</p>

<p>Independence, right? (she refused their financial aid =)</p>

<p>Confirmed on grounded - anyone else agree?</p>

<p>i put grounded in.</p>

<p>and independence.</p>

<p>Masterus: it did say that they could not devote enough time</p>

<p>I changed independence for frugality at the last second? Shoot.</p>
