Official Dec Test (CR-Shakespeare, Autobiography-brother Dennis)

<p>the shakespare one is not the experimental and will never be b/c I’m sure that the section about “the crazy woman who like to take notes” is the experimental.
God!!! do you have to do this to me?:(</p>

<p>for fantastic, i got absurd.</p>

<p>yeah, the dennis one was funny.</p>

<p>Did you guys get a ridiculous number of “no error” on the writing section?</p>

<p>Military service was the right answer. It was making money. The works of Shakespeare/de Vere included military stuff in a few sent so having military exp would not undermine the argument.</p>

<p>snowman96 the lion one and the question you posted are completely different questions. Put the second part of the sentence in front (Rob and darrin…) and then continue with whereas sean - ignore the modifier. It ends up being an imcomplete sentence. If it went “whereas sean behaved blah blah, rob and darrin,” would be similar.</p>

<p>i actually didnt have all that many.</p>

<p>I recibe cuatro “no errores”</p>

<p>Sorry, I practicing Spanish.</p>

<p>i bombed the shakespeare one =( i didn’t even have time to read the second passage n randomly guessed for all the questions. does any1 remember those answers???</p>

<p>snowman - totally different, because the lion one would establish dependent/independent. Here there isnt one.</p>

<p>and what did “hard” mean. in the governess passage.</p>

<p>there was something about how the dennis kids were not “permitted” to use the word lie. i think the exact question was about the meaning of allowed.</p>

<p>there was some question about the meaning of “truth” i think.</p>

<p>“irony in the “statement” — she expects to learn, but that expectation is not in line with the true “expectation,” that governesses are only there to teach.”
To Echelon:
Haha some points:

  1. She doesn’t expect to learn, WE, the reader expect her to learn [from her experiences.]
  2. I do agree with you on the fact that if she wants to learn, it would be ironic because as you said governesses aren’t supposed to want to learn and are supposed to just teach.</p>

<p>This is either a really hard question or I’m totally wrong.</p>

<p>Also Andreaaa, the question with what wouldn’t the author of Passage 1 consider as a requirement of “qualified readership.”</p>

<p>The answer cannot be military campaigns for two reasons.

  1. Passage 1 directly states that the author of the works had to have had extensive knowledge in the military [army, navy]</p>

<p>The choice that I believe to be correct is the one that was directly related to producing plays in the theater [all of the other choices were related to having knowledge of things that only the aristocracy/military might know]. I don’t know the exact wording of that choice, but it can be picked out because that’s the only one that wasn’t related to the specific knowledge, the choices which are mentioned in the brackets above.</p>

<p>yea i, as well as others, got a lot of NE on the writing section (4?). The fact that 4 NE has not commonly occurred to me and that i had to hold on to my pee created a /omg emo mood for me throughout the rest of the 4 sections.</p>

<p>trivia, for the irony question, if you read the small excerpt before the passage it said the governess was to teach the kids blah blah. i though that her learning from the students was ironic because she was suppose to teach the students as a governess.</p>

<p>I put onerous</p>

<p>kinda a guess, kinda not</p>

<p>i don’t know guys, i’m sticking with my answers. But apparently no one agrees with me.</p>

<p>hard=onerous</p>

<p>yea, in “organizing public plays”, it said “profitable”, and the passages went on about how he didn’t really care about money but the grain merchant was a penny pincher</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>i also got that answer. i think we are right. that was probably the hardest shakespeare question though.</p>

<p>It’s almost definitely onerous, because of the definition:
involving, imposing, or constituting a burden</p>

<p>The governess was burdened because she had to take up a task that she knew she wasn’t good at [school related stuff, she hadn’t applied herself remember?]</p>

<p>*I found a definition for stark, which was one of the answer choices, but it was on Answers.com, which is not as authoritative as Merriam Webster [I looked that up for onerous].
Harsh; grim: “faced with that stark future” (Robert C. McFarlane). “[They] found it hard to accept such a stark portrait of unrelieved failure” (W. Bruce Lincoln)</p>

<p>I stand by onerous.</p>

<p>By the way, I’ve scored 1570 and 1600 on Math + CR, so what I say can be considered reliable. However, don’t ask me about grammar!!!</p>

<p>some1 plz try to remember all the shakespear answers?</p>

<p>CANCEL MY SCORE OR NOT???</p>
