<p>tehfunkcookie, she chose the song first. The passage said she chose it in like febuary and she was so bad at it during her lesson because she hadn’t played it in awhile.</p>
<p>It said summer lessons for sure…</p>
<p>right, she chose her lesson in late winter/early spring and sent in her audition tape (not 100% on the tape), then played softball and lost, then started taking lessons over the summer. The reason she was so bad at her piece during the lesson was because she hadn’t practiced at all over the softball season, which she felt somewhat guilty about.</p>
<p>I remember pretty clearly that she picked her lessons a few years ago. The softball playoffs were 2 weeks ago.</p>
<p>Ah well, I still agree that chronologically she picked her piece first. That’s all that really matters.</p>
<p>I’m actually pretty sure that the similar/dissimilar was just similar. It asked you to compare Ezra Pound and those other writers to the Chinese-American, and the answer was that they all traveled to a different country… yeah, pretty sure that was it. </p>
<p>That passage, as a whole, bothered me a bit… generally because of the negative tone the author of the passage had on the Asian writer.</p>
<p>For the question dealing with the chronological order of the kit foxes, does anyone remember what they put that happened first?</p>
<p>I’m sure the kit foxes were put in endangered species list first in 1967. Next events happen in 1975, 1980s, and I forgot about one other event.</p>
<p>What was the purpose of the kit foxes passage?
- To inform readers about the kit foxes and how they are endangered
- To explain why the species is endangered</p>
<p>that was the only question that bothered me the whole time</p>
<p>It was 1964</p>
<p>And @gsfan: Inform readers for sure, because it explained the kit fox before it discussed the endangerment of them.</p>
<p>I said your first sentence. I think the passage gave more information than just why they’re endangered.</p>
<p>Also, I too said that kit foxes were put on the endangered species list first.</p>
<p>What Ezra Pound and those other writers had in common was that they did not write in their native language. Am I right?</p>
<p>Correction: the first choice was the inform readers about kit foxes and effect of humans on them</p>
<p>Tell me if your choices still stand.</p>
<p>@Touss, You are correct</p>
<p>No…they DID write in their native language and the author of the passage itself did not write in his native language.</p>
<p>And yes, inform still stands.</p>
<p>@Audi, what was similar was they lived away from their homeland for a long time or something</p>
<p>That was a different question, no?</p>
<p>Yeah, it was the “living away from their homeland for a long time” one. Also, the kit foxes were put on the endangered species list first, I believe.</p>
<p>For the passage about the Chinese writer, were there two questions that said: 1) What made them different?
2) What made them similar?</p>
<p>Ok. these passages were amazing! But was anyone else bummed about the grammar passage about how the magazine failed, and then failed a second time? What was up with that?</p>
<p>I am usually fearing for my life during the fiction passages bcuz they are old and boring. but this one you actually could relate to. My only problem was the last passage bcuz of time.</p>
