<p>@Jubilant- that was my line of reasoning as well.</p>
<p>Is negotiation = enthusiasm?</p>
<p>And this was a hard question: Which person was not on the island after whatever time…</p>
<p>How about the one where an answer choice was “Stuart himself.” What was the answer to that one?</p>
<p>^I think that was the one about being conservative in sharing his findings. If that’s the question, it’s the woman who was a large focus of the passage whose name begins with a B. The name escapes me.</p>
<p>Yeah…I was between the people made the stuff and importers. I think I went with importers…</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure it was transient phenomena, not transient experience, but yes I think that is the right answer.</p>
<p>“attic??? CRAP! I remember reading about “cardboard folds” and it just sounded like junk. Damn it.”</p>
<p>I almost put junk because of the “cardboard folds” also, but just a couple lines after that I (luckily) read where it talked about the “attic”</p>
<p>So is it negotiation or enthusiasm?</p>
<p>Negotiation. He wasn’t hiding any euthusiam.</p>
<p>Everyone probably forgot by now, but anyone remember the wording for the question with hybrid tea leaves as an answer? Thanks</p>
<p>What was the wording for “negotiation” and “enthusiasm” ?</p>
<p>ANd who was the race who was NOT part of the island mentioned in the beginning?</p>
<p>@fisawalab, I thought everyone agreed that shrubs was the answer for that the 17th century European one? Unless you are talking about a different question.</p>
<p>Oh, so it was the hardy shrubs one? I thought it was a different question, but it makes sense that those two would be answer choices for the same question. Awesome nvm then.</p>
<p>^Yeah, the tea leaves was one of the answer choices for that question.</p>
<p>Okay…so does anyone know the answer to the people that were NOT on the island? Importers or the people that made the item?</p>
<p>Importer right…importers would be somewhere else? Unless the items were getting imported there. Idk, that was the only one I was unsure about. Need that 36 :o</p>
<p>^definitely importer. No question about that.</p>
<p>I have a question: Are you guys sure that the reason the customer raised the price to $125 was cuz he assumed that the seller was negotiating?</p>
<p>Nowhere in the passage did it indicate that this is what the customer was assuming.
In fact, I was fairly confident that the answer was “the customer intended to go as high as he could and the seller gratefully accepted it”?
Why can’t this be right?</p>
<p>And someone said that the seller, and i quote, “was reluctant to sell the radio because it was broken”
First of all, the seller was not reluctant. He was just quizzical. Big difference. </p>
<p>I put chronologically random but i see why loosely chronological is a better choice.</p>
<p>What did everyone put for the main idea of the mexican passage?</p>
<p>I put that the guy mentioned in the passage influenced The Mexican Movement or something along those lines</p>
<p>^yeah that was another one I wasn’t sure about. I went with compared how he did USA and how he did Mexico because it only talked for a couple of sentences how to influenced the movement, idk tho.</p>
<p>Also, it was the buyer thought the narrator was trying to negotiate because he increased his price after the narrator said “those arent really for sale” when the narrator wasn’t even trying to negotiate, he wouldnt increase his rate unless he thought that the narrator was trying to negotiate.</p>
<p>Ok, I’m looking at -2 max worst, but anyone else on the main idea of the passage?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I think the narrator clearly explained that the radios don’t even work before the customer raised his price. So the customer knew that the reason the radios weren’t “really for sale” was that they were outdated. The customer wasn’t trying to negotiate if he had known this piece of fact.</p>
<p>he said they didnt work earlier. However, the buyer does not CARE if they worked or not, he wanted to buy it regardless.</p>
<p>However, when he offered 100 dollars. The immediate response from the narrator was “Oh, those arent for sale”</p>
<p>and the immediate reply from the buyer was “How about 125 dollars?”</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Right and this was an indication that the customer intended to go as high as he possibly could. The seller gratefully accepted this, eventually</p>
