<p>I also did the isolated choice- is that wrong?</p>
<p>and it was Austria, wasn’t it?</p>
<p>Damn. I just don’t understand why it was isolated. Looking back I still cannot see why it was that answer. Nothing in the passage indicated loneliness</p>
<p>Nah redjohn (interesting name bro) it was isolated, cause i remember the question asking why she said it would be less painful of a visit if it was near a movie theater or something like that. I think it was referring to the scenery of where her great aunt’s house was located</p>
<p>Guys I have a question: how do I take Sunday SAT if I recently converted to Judaism?</p>
<p>that was a weird passage…i didnt even get what it was about until the end of it…</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>THIS IS WHAT I HATE ABOUT CRITICAL READING. LIKE I THOUGHT SHE WAS BORED AND THAT IS WHY SHE SAID IT.ljabs]ybeglosreislueitgns</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>lol interesting.</p>
<p>Get the written application and send it in with a letter from a Rabbi of yours that verifies that you are a Sabbath observer. I think you might also need to put a code for Sunday test takers in there… The second tome you take it, you can apply online because they will remember that you are a Sunday test taker</p>
<p>I think he was kidding.</p>
<p>Anyway I don’t remember the question to the answer 'Loved her father as much as horse". Does anyone remember that question?</p>
<p>redjohn, it was elaborating on the previous sentence, which was just “she loved her dad” or something like that</p>
<p>anyone remember the sentences for the ones whose answers were “proscribed” and “matured…fulfilling”?</p>
<p>I think the answer to the girl question was that she was distant from her father in some way or they never understood each other</p>
<p>cedricgold91, you’re right. more specifically, it was about “her inability to empathize with her father”</p>
<p>yeah i think thats correct</p>
<p>hey, what do you think a -1/-2 on writing would be with a 10+ essay on this test?
I feel like the curve is gonna be really harsh.</p>
<p>its isolation bc when she was there she was isolated from the modern world which is why she said that it wud be better if her relatives moved to a more modern area(by a movie theater,etc so she wudnt be lonely. she hated the whole old school idenitiy deal and wanted her fam to move on to future-modern world</p>
<p>enjoy guys</p>
