<p>instead of happiness being short-lived… why couldn’t have been his “happiness isn’t real”</p>
<p>he uses the analogy of a stolen toy…that doesn’t necessarily mean short-lived happiness… it’s not like it has to be returned. If he said borrowed toy that would’ve made sense. lol i know my explanation of the toy analogy sounds kinda pathetic…but we had to get our response directly from it.</p>
<p>I said his happiness wasn’t real, because it was “stolen.” It wasn’t his to begin with…he kinda was just pretending that he was happy. I was stuck between this and short-lived, but chose this in the end.</p>
<p>i think many kids would be happy with a stolen toy, especially if they don’t have to give it back. So that definitely isn’t the answer. As far as the happiness being short-lived, i agree that it’s not a PERFECT fit, but it is the best answer.</p>
<p>I understand where you’re coming from. I made such stupid mistakes. For example, i picked “inadequate” and changed it at the last second saying to myself, “Damn! I almost picked the wrong answer.” I changed it to “ambitious”. :(</p>
<p>The question about thucydides derivations should be GREEK HISTORY</p>
<p>the passage states though WE CANNOT BE CERTAIN how much is his own intuition from observable remains (archeology) and deductions from Hoemric Tale, OR how much he derived from sources we do not have (historians disregard the fact that he may have gotten other sources; they didnt disregard that we are uncertain about archaelogoy / hoemric tale)
Thucydiides then considers the knowledge of seafaring in the Aegean, capital reserves coming into existence, and the gradual construction of walled cities…</p>
<p>clearly the seafaring/walled cities is evident in greek history… I think most people overlooked the key phrase that they were uncertain about his derivations from hoemric tale</p>
<p>I agree 100% with Iforgeteasily’s list . For the Trojan War Question, I feel like the answer is Probably happened. However, I could easily be wrong. I don’t feel like there was concrete evidence going one way or the other.</p>
<p>lol whoever said you can’t pretend to be happy…yeah im too lazy to go back to page 150 and check so sue me…LOL what perfect world are you living in?</p>
<p>Most people in this world pretend to be happy…because there will be nothing to live for otherwise.</p>
<p>I admitted short-lived makes sense anyways; I’m not gonna go start some heated debate lol. so no need to go “WRONGGGG” in someone’s face.</p>
<p>And sheesh people, who even knows if these ARE the right answers. The consolidated list…no matter how many people are supporting it, is never 100% guaranteed to be the list of answers.
Just waiting for Oct. 28 now. Until then, going to loosen up and stop coming back to this thread every hour haha.</p>
<p>I’m blank on what the sentence to the answer “wasted” was, can you remind me? When I read it, I thought it was such a weird sentence because it seemed to say all of the space was ______, there was nothing in the room. So I put “unoccupied.”
I’m so close to -3 but so far because of this one question, help!!!</p>
<p>The sentence was more along the lines of “No space was ________ in the shuttle; everything had a purpose.” (not exact, but conveys the meaning).</p>
