404

<p>@Chezbi: I had questions on all of those too!
For manage, I was stuck between handle or something like that… I’m glad I’m not alone in my struggle in critical reading lol</p>

405

<p>Here was one sentence in question from the Ella Baker passage:</p>

<p>“This connection has enhanced rather than lessened my desire to be thorough, rigorous, and balanced in my -treatment- of her life and ideas”</p>

<p>A lot of people mentioned that they chose either “handling” or “management”; couldn’t it have been “execution”?</p>

<p>Actually nevermind. The correct answer is handling.</p>

406

<p>^ @kyrieah</p>

<p>I actually put proposal. It kind of fits but I wouldn’t call an biography a proposal so I think I’m wrong :(</p>

410

<p>Was it hypothetical proposal or alternative approach. I was torn on that one</p>

411

<p>I said something with “hypothetical” in it</p>

412

<p>I put alternative approach…</p>

413

<p>I put alternative approach:</p>

<p>It was more of a call than a hypothetical thing…</p>

414

<p>@neverstop smiling it was like “officials wanted to ____ the public about serious environmental issues but because the officials had ____, they needed better communication” "edify means to “instruct” and “reticence” means like “reserved” untalkative</p>

415

<p>Alternate approach.

419

<p>The question about Baker was something like:</p>

<p>What is the primary purpose of this passage:</p>

<p>(A) Bakers political philosophy
(B) Bakers personality</p>

<p>I chose (B) because the passage seemed to talk more about Baker as a person than about her philopsophy.</p>

420

<p>baker’s political philosophy was definitely right</p>
