<p>@prospectiveappli, what were the other choices. i dont remember them and I remember I was really confused on that but I might have put that answer</p>
<p>The “wariness” question was from the nuclear passage. It asked how the author would react to the “scientists and engineers” who experiment and tried a lot of risky things with nuclear and other energy sources.</p>
<p>@Subsidize, isn’t that what the “negative environmental impact” answer is referencing? If not, then what question is that for?</p>
<p>r u sure the biographer shared her political views? I thought it was the other one… and what was the other answers for the concrete reality vs abstract art? was it something about human and decadent?</p>
<p>@scholasticapt
it was about a movie…thats all i remember</p>
<p>i got poisonous for the mushroom. Also for the treatment thing I put management because the author had to manage the way he/she looked at the story of the person. What were the last three answers for the nuclear, D B B?</p>
<p>@ scholastic it was like "movies had stock characterizations; admirers found it ____ despite it being ____ " compelling and formulaic was the best choice</p>
<p>it was something about the stock characters in a movie, which are formulaic because they’re “cliched” and yet it was compelling because it was interesting</p>

<p>@Chicago What were the other answer choices for that question</p>
<p>the question with the answer"wariness" was from the nuclear passage</p>
<p>“The guy whom he said the quote to was intent on having an internationally completive business or something along those lines.”</p>
<p>wait…what?</p>
<p>That was a note added by someone else. A summation of the passage, I believe.</p>
<p>I dont understand how Walden is human centered when the article discussed the difference betweem human-centered writing that we are more interested in and natured centered writing like walden which is long, boring and exhaustive at times</p>
<p>The second nuclear article never said that nuclear energy was controversial but I remember both articles mentioning the growth in use of nuclear energy</p>
<p>For vocab:
Fickleness <---- sentence?
Digress <---- sentence?</p>
<p>Wasn’t the main concern of Author 2 (it is 2, right?) to emphasize the necessity of expanded use of nuclear power as a resource temporarily? I understand why searching for an energy source of less environmental impact is a viable option, but this seems too broad of a topic. </p>
<p>Anyway, a lot of these answer choices were very ambiguous…****es me off.</p>
<p>did anyone else feel like the vocab on this CR was really hard
like not hard with the fill in the blanks
but a bunch of vocab in the passage question choices…</p>
<p>^ yup and yup. Also, the scientist biologist lady sentence was edify and reticence. It fits perfectly. Other thread said it was recondite and something else. Inconceivable.</p>
<p>Thanks for the clarification, ProspectiveAppli</p>
