<p>Well then I definitely put healing then. It associated with recuperating. :D</p>
<p>the question was how author would feel about the historical books/(something of that nature).
again one of the choices had dubious and scholarly detachemnt
i think i put E forgot what it was</p>
<p>yeah can we talk about the historian question</p>
<p>i remember there was one about gaping and one about the number of books that appeared during or after WWI</p>
<p>what did u guys put for the one about author 2's response to WWI books in passage 1
and gaping public vulnerability to persuasion or something of that nature.</p>
<p>

number of books that appeared during or after WWI
[/quote]
</p>
<p>What was the answer to that?</p>
<p>ORACLE OR CHARLATAN?!!!</p>
<p>i put charlatan because he didn't actually believe that they could predict the future</p>
<p>i put oracle
but the consensus is charlatan</p>
<p>I put charlatan because it said implied, but now I think it was oracle.</p>
<p>yeah i put oracle at first, but he didn't BELIEVE they were... i think...</p>
<p>i thought he said something like</p>
<p>"some people believe they have a 6th sense."</p>
<p>it asked what he considered to be the "people"</p>
<p>you could tell he was skeptical because of his line that siad "then why don't they go play the stock market and become rich" - def not the exact words but similar meaning</p>
<p>Definitely "charlatan." He was totally mocking the parapsychologists! Wasn't "sardonic" also a choice for another MC question on the same passage?</p>
<p>Also, for the "wi*<strong><em>l" one, I was confused because I thought wi</em></strong><em>l and nostalgic were too similar, so I ended up choosing "reserved." Is it really wi</em>***l?</p>
<p>I put "wi****l" because nostalic deals more with worrying over the past, but I could be wrong.</p>
<p>i definetly think its oracle and there was a consensus on it earlier, the question was asking about the "people" and it was specifically refferring to that first sentence i believe. a charlatan is too extreme, while the pyscics are false, they aren't total cheats and theifs</p>
<p>Ya I had trouble choosing "sardonic" or "condescending". I put sardonic in the end though cause I didn't think the guy actually felt superior to anything.</p>
<p>I put charlatan for the other quesiton.</p>
<p>I was stuck between wi*<strong><em>l and reserved, but in the end chose wi</em></strong>*l because the scientist spoke with a longing sort of voice.</p>
<p>i think i put sardonic</p>
<p>can we reach a consus on charlatan/oracle</p>
<p>does anyone remember the full sentence</p>
<p>also, i put wi****l because nostalgic is more about the past, like haha said
i don't think it really dealt with the past so much</p>
<p>Charlatan can just mean fake though too, not just cheats or thiefs. I still don't know if the question wanted the surface or "underneath the underneath."</p>
<p>What was the one with the number of books during WWI being greater than the fiction titles?</p>
<p>now i think about it might have to be oracles. charlatan is too extreme. he never flat out said that he didnt believe in them. people are just assuming. so i think oracle would be less of a stretch then oracle</p>
<p>wi****l
sardonic
charlatan
I'm pretty sure about these..</p>
<p>yeah... i'm really confused now, because i first put oracle. but then i don't think he meant to imply that they were oracle's because he didn't believe they were. but then i don't know if he's just referring to self-proclaimed oracles or people who he actually believes are oracles AHHH</p>
