<p>I put might because it made more sense. Had they put “may be” instead of “maybe” then it would have been different. I felt pretty good about “might” but am not 100%</p>
<p>For that one I also put halted, but I wasn’t strong on that. Can anyone tell me what they think?</p>
<p>Also there was one in the dog sled that asked which was a strong transition. It was either the one about the dogs getting a flu or her having to make a decision. Both regarded the next sentence so it was confusing, however, I think the flu was more specific and related more to the passage.</p>
<p>The was one asking which sentence best concludes the essay…that was difficult to answer because my AP English education teaches me to leave the reader thinking, while a basic class would say to wrap up the essay. I decided no change I think. </p>
<p>Lastly, a grammatical question, referring to a question regarding a phrase in the camera passage. It was “such as: use”</p>
<p>To wrap up the essay I was deciding between “she marked her spot in history” and “she wants to win for several years in the future” i picked the future one but I wasn’t confident at all. The answers are off thats just what I remember them as.</p>
<p>@tenmore
I can’t answer the other questions, but on the one with “such as: use” I believe answer was “such as,” or the one similar to that. I distinctly remember that a colon did not work in this instance.</p>
<p>I picked she was a veteran musher. For the conclusion one that it. I didn’t like how the future one was worded at all.
I picked for example for that one tenmore. It wasn’t a list because the next example started a new sentence. You could be right though. I just felt like it wasn’t an explanation for the previous statement nor was it the consequence of the previous part of the sentence.</p>
<p>Was the question on the last passage about “backlight” and “flash fill” the answer with a semicolon or comma? I struggled with that one for a few minutes and ultimately chose the one with a comma because “‘backlight’” and ‘flashfill’" is not a complete thought.</p>
<p>Cool. I thought English overall wasn’t that bad. Was the answer to the question about the musher passage as a whole “No” because it was talking about her participation in the Iditerod rather than being a personal reflection?</p>
<p>For the “such as:” question, I put “…something me:” and then the list. I don’t think “for example” worked here just for the fact it seemed awkward and in my experience, ACT English tests more on how a phrase sounds than anything else. I don’t know…hopefully I got it right. That’s the only one I didn’t know.</p>
<p>There was one correct colon on the test - in the photography passage. There was a list, but it consisted of multiple sentences, hence the option of “<strong><em>: Use _</em></strong>.”</p>
<p>I think my English score dropped. I counted 5 that I wasn’t completely sure about
Does anyone know the answer to #7? It was a then/than question, and I thought it was awkward.</p>
<p>ACTTutor, did you get “…me: Use” for that one? There were two colon answers, and the other one was “…me, such as:” and I was thinking if you use such as AND a colon it’s redundant.</p>
<p>@efeens44 yes, I got “me: Use” - you’re right about redundancy. It’s weird (not incorrect, just rare) to have a colon before multiple sentences in a list.</p>
<p>How about the other sensible option, “me, for example, …”? I thought that one simply didn’t work because the “for example” would have to be preceded by a semi colon. Am i right in thinking that?</p>
<p>@efeens44 I think they were testing correct use of “,for example,” in the middle of a sentence. It didn’t work in this sentence. Your reasoning about needing a semicolon works too.</p>
