<p>paradoxes ( forgot where it belongs, Ms. Flower?)</p>

<p>forget a lot , please remind me more or just add it, thanks</p>

<p>Wow, this is actually a pretty good job. Unfortunately I can’t remember much, but I got a lot of the same answers except for the Technology and Music section. </p>

<p>On the Mrs. Flower section, I put down satire for the question regarding “death is too small of a penalty.” Overstate means “express or state too strongly; exaggerate” which implies that it is still talking about the same action but just exaggerated. For, example I could say “he hit me really hard on the shoulder” and I would overstate that by saying “he rapped me on my entire shoulder bone with the power of a 1000 suns.” Both the statements are still talking about getting hit with the shoulder. I doubt that Mrs. Flower would actually kill the child for abusing one of her books so I feel that satire was the best choice in this situation. Plus immediately after, there was something about having a slow and painful death which adds to my evidence.</p>

<p>I said that (for mrs flowers) it wasn’t stipulation, but a compromise (the girl says how she doesn’t like to talk a lot but she loves to read - therefore the compromise is that she still gets to read, she just has to talk out loud).</p>

<p>I didn’t put polarizing either, because it wasn’t fruitful? I think I put A - something and inconclusive.</p>

<p>And finally, I said the purpose was not an unexpected solution… I forget what I put though</p>

<p>The answer was A. At first you think polarizing and fruitful, but when I went back and looked for evidence, it is clearly stated that the discussion didn’t amount to much or come to any conclusions.</p>

<p>@OfficialApple The overall sentiment Ms.M toward Ms.Flower is admiring, so satire not really works. She is exaggerating because she is definitely not going to ruin the book and the exaggeration is that Ms. Flower is so nice to her that if she ruins her book, putting her to death is a too small penalty.
@satman1111 Interesting point, but it seems that Ms.M doesn’t really compromise to read aloud, whatever. The sentence is more about Ms. Flower’s assertation.
@yayitsme123 Sigh, I believe you are right, polarizing and fruitful is a diversion from the answer.</p>

<p>Thanks for the hard work of @dark knight
Here is a more comprehensive list:

  1. EXONERATE … IMPLICATE SC – the defense attorney wanted to
    exonerate the guy but unwittingly IMPLICATED herself
  2. AQUEOUS – FLOAT (The scientist wanted to build something
    AQUEOUS so he wanted to give the illusion that everything can
    (FLOAT)
  3. PRESERVES … RECONSTRUCTIONS
    (The arid climate PRESERVES leather etc allowing scholars to
    make RECONSTRUCTIONS)
  4. CONCILIATION … PLACATE (Carrie Chapman)
  5. EVOKE … EPITOMIZE
  6. INHOSPITABLE – SC – the sudden clouds and raindrops were an
    implication of INHOSPITABLE weather
  7. QUOTIDIAN(QUONDAM?) – NOT COMMODIOUS or LABYRINTH [egypt one]
  8. PUNCTILIOUS – lady was unwilling to tolerate any rule changes
    or deviation from details (NOTE UNSHAKEN)
  9. DISPARATE
  10. FACULTY and another word (something about the eloquence of speech)
  11. PRESERVE … RECONSTRUCT – arid – leather
  12. CONVERSATION-exchanging idea
  13. CRITICIZE…INDISCRETIONS – had to do with a politician and his supporters
    although they found out about his INDISCRETIONS they were(it deals with a charismatic guy who makes mistakes to the point that his workmates have to critize him)
    note deterred</p>

<p>Ms. FLOWERS
15. ADMIRING FIGURE – Attitude toward Ms. Flowers
16. STIPULATION – MS. Flowers implied requirement(sigh, I put warning or something like that)
17. OVERSTATE – Death is too small a penalty (NOT SATIRE)
18. NOVELTY – want to capture the room for her brother
19. PROPRIETY to SPONTANEITY – change in the way she ate the cookies
20. REVELATION – last question
21. MUNDANE (because satisfactory) … EXTRAORDINARY (I put ROmantic…Dramatize)
22. HOMELY - SIMPLE
UNUSUAL – had to do with ice on a daily basis
memorable moment or something like that on the first question</p>

<p>SHORT PASSAGE – MEMORY
-memory
23. Confused – DISQUIET to FOREBEARANCE </p>

<p>TECHNOLOGY and MUSIC
24. INDIGNANT – 1st par critic of music
25. FRANKLY … - another guy’s attitude
26. HANDLE = DIRECT
27. WATERSHED moment in musical history when Edison invented the
phonograph cylinder
28. AUTOMATONS – because “Zombified listeners” (you are right, I thought is dilettante because he states there are no more professionals in the future = =)
29. IMPASSIONED … INCONCLUSIVE
refers to the two sides of the debate on electronic music – debate has
been going on a long time (Some students put POLARIZING …
FRUITFUL but I believe that IMPASSIONED … INCONCLUSIVE
is definitely the correct answer. Here’s why – the passage says “they
have reached no unshakable conclusions.” This supports
“INCONCLUSIVE”
30. Purpose – unexpected solution to a problem
31. SCHOLARLY NEUTRAL – the author summarizes both sides:
32. TERRAIN = FIELD (“Scholars and critics have been methodically
exploring this TERRAIN for many decades”) [I put distinction]
33. Beneficial effects of – REVITALIZATION of Classical performances[I put expanded recording]
34. Summarizing a viewpoint (ie opening paragraph with Susa’s viewpoint)[not sure about this question]</p>

<p>WESTERN EXPANSION
35. PARADOXES
36. Point of last paragraph- shift to directly addressing the reader
37. Mild disapproval</p>

<p>HONEYBEES (Short Dual)
38. Media = complete agreement
39. QUESTIONABLE or PROBLEMATIC since bees are dying anyway
40. OVERSTATED – Einstein quote about how bees disappearing would
result in humans vanishing</p>

<p>handled = direct? i put treated or something. lol</p>

<p>also, romantic -> dramatic. because to get from poetic/melodic to extraordinary, you’d have to go through an extra step of deduction, which shouldn’t happen in the sat, so i don’t think it’s the answer.</p>

<p>@eluviumz
the handle question is direct involve in making music
great, I also put romantic -> dramatic</p>

<p>wait so what was that question on the cookie passage that asked for a phrase synonymous to “handling the book”?</p>

<p>and what is direct involve in making music? i don’t remember such a question, lol</p>

<p>As for the Romantic - dramatic vs Mundane - extraordinary, My tutor(who has been getting 2400 on all sats so far) says it must be mundane and extraoridnary.</p>

<p>Zombified - automaton</p>

<p>and What was the subject vs Filed about? cholars and critics have been methodically
exploring this TERRAIN for many decades” what was the main passage about?</p>

<p>@tkim5574: The “terrain” question was in the technology and music passage; I put “subject” for that one.</p>

<p>How about the “derisive” answer choice? I got that for one of the questions for the tech and music passage.</p>

<p>What’s the sentence completion about New York joining and how it was autonomous before?? And the one about how it harms both the animal and scientist?</p>

<p>@tkim5574 as @blazer2800 mentioned the “terrain” question was in the technology and music passage, it is in the last par in which the author states experters have been investigating on the terrain or something like that, so the author finds it please that someone is looking for a middle ground besides him.</p>

<p>@blazer2800 I don’t really remember about derisive as my answer</p>

<p>@omgitsvicki Can’t recall anything you mention, are you sure those are not from the experimental section?</p>

<p>Paradoxes belongs to the passage about the American West frontier</p>

<p>For terrain I put “subject”. When they say field, I think Collegeboard is referring to a field field. Like a grass field or snow field. This type of field has to do with the traditional meaning of terrain and I believe collegeboard would put that to confuse us. That’s why I believe that it was “subject”</p>
