October 2011 SAT Writing

<p>

</p>

<p>Sentence is wrong. It was “had fostered”</p>

<p>WHAT WAS THE ANSWER TO THE THIMBLE AND SEWING QUESTIoN i got it down to B C and chose B, the one that said “you can sew more easily” C seemed toooo awkward.</p>

<p>You can sew more easily is correct because of the modifier. For the New Zealand question, wouldn’t the error be “when” because it should read “that”?</p>

<p>^^^^No, it wouldn’t imply that they stopped playing music. It just means that NZ fostered a music scene then, it doesn’t imply that the action is over. Besides, when makes no sense in the passage (and I know the when is right).</p>

<p>^^It was C, sewing becomes easier or whatever.</p>

<p>^hang on, that’s wrong? I thought the sewing one was easy… :'(</p>

<p>The answer was the one with you in it.</p>

<p>what the heck was the having lay stuff? IDR THAT?</p>

<p>“It was not until I was 10 when I started reading.” That sounds awkward as hell to me. I think the idiom is “It was not until…that”</p>

<p>does anyone know the answer to the one with “collaboate”?</p>

<p>wait was the answer contrary to those of … or unlike those of…</p>

<p>@Mooatt
i need to know that too :[</p>

<p>it was collaborate because it should have been corroborate</p>

<p>@moatt I put that as an answer. I thought it should be “collaborate with”</p>

<p>darn I was really unsure about it but the word corroborate never crossed my mind
I got it wrong btw</p>

<p>HARD QUESTION OR WRITING:</p>

<p>to be altered,
to be altered or changed. (10 min) </p>

<p>WHICH??</p>

<p>To alter and to change pretty much mean the same thing, so I put the former as my answer.</p>

<p>Can someone confirm that the New Zealand question was “when” and not “had been” (change to has been)?</p>

<p>I put “had been” for the New Zealand one.</p>

<p>hey guys</p>

<p>there was a question about stop to present/stop presenting</p>

<p>which one was it?</p>

<p>its just altered</p>

<p>scholasticapt- are you sure that wasn’t experimental?</p>
