<p>again does anyone else know the other choices for the downplay magnitude sentence completion?</p>
<p>
You are correct. International students take a different test</p>
<p>
I would also like to know.</p>
<p>@via sorry i don’t remember. but i’m 100% sure that it’s downplay/magnitude.</p>

<p>venting done</p>
<p>
Me too. That seemed like a fairly obvious answer to me</p>
<p>I know the general consensus is “discerning moviegoers”</p>
<p>but the passage says here</p>
<p>[Sontag</a> & Kael: opposites attract me - Google Books](<a href=“Sontag and Kael: Opposites Attract Me - Craig Seligman - Google Books”>Sontag and Kael: Opposites Attract Me - Craig Seligman - Google Books)</p>
<p>it says only those of us who, despite the fact that we may respond, loathe being manipulated…</p>
<p>To me, it seemed like a very narrow set of people. That’s why I put “Virtually no one”</p>
<p>I kinda see how “discerning moviegoers” works, however, because it talks about them being aware. </p>
<p>/sigh</p>
<p>For the jump rope passage, wasn’t there an answer that was along the lines of “significant personal pastime”</p>
<p>for the trojan war about the no evidence against it
there was a line in the passage saying how “modern findings have yet to refute” or something like that
it was in the last paragraph and was the key phrase to answering the last question… besides all the other answers weren’t mentioned or were too extreme</p>
<p>@Harambee Yes there was.</p>
