I think most those answers are still correct - with the Puerto Rican one, he is blaming the critics, but it said “denouncing specific critics” he didnt call anyone out.</p>
<p>Anyone remember getting a TON of C’s and D’s on a section? I dont remember what section type it was.</p>
<p>if you say idealistic, there some small meaning that you are agreeing with what the idealistic statement means. the point of passage2 was to disagree with passage1 so i thought misguided because the logic of author1 was flawed according to p2 author’s opinion.</p>
<p>The Puerto Rican Passage</p>
<p>While none of the answers was great I agree with SATManiac that the correct answer was that the author attempted to reconcile two controversial viewpoints.</p>
<p>hey guys do any of you remember what other words were on the question with glib? i rly dont remember what the other choices were and i dont think i put glib so idk…</p>
<p>why would it be awe for the dennis one? it seemed like all the siblings didnt like having him around that much…</p>
<p>Yeah, but they compared Dennis to the Lincoln memorial. I don’t think people feel dismay when they see the lincoln memorial…</p>
<p>Here are some questions we don’t yet if correct</p>
<p>1.) glib or scholarly, people are confused if we are looking at the tone of passage one or 2.</p>
<p>2.) idealistic or misguided</p>
<p>3.) awed, dismay</p>
<p>4.) symbolism and overstatement</p>
<p>5.) inappropriate to or reconciling the differences</p>
<p>i’m about 90% sure that the glib/ scholarly one was asking about passage 1 because the first time i read it i thought it was passage 2 and couldn’t come up with an answer. i skipped it and came back to it and realized that i had read the question wrong, that they were in fact asking about passage 1</p>
<ol>
<li>hmm, it was definitely referring to passage one, so it was glib. 2. I said idealistic but couldn’t decide. 3. pretty sure it was awed. 4. Overstatement…where was the symbolism? 5. I don’t remember this one!</li>
</ol>
<p>glib, misguided, overstatement are for sure</p>
<p>i put awe, because dismay sounded like a stretch. the author did not dismay his brother, he dismayed the attention he received there’s a difference. plus the shadows were being compared to lincoln memorial. now cb would never have an answer choice dismaying lincoln or anything having to do with lincoln. thats my justification. </p>
<p>and i put inpropriate, because the other choices didnt really make sense</p>
<p>i had:</p>
<p>1.) scholarly.</p>
<p>2.) misguided.</p>
<p>3.) dismay.</p>
<p>4.) symbolism.</p>
<p>5.) reconciling the differences.</p>
<p>DISMAY is correct. The brother was described as casting a “shadow” over the other siblings. Additionally, the brother’s name is repeated several times by the mother in one of the paragraphs to portray how fed up the author and his siblings are with his brother and their jealousy.</p>
<p>It’s dismay.</p>
<p>“Yeah, but they compared Dennis to the Lincoln memorial. I don’t think people feel dismay when they see the lincoln memorial…”</p>
<p>He was not compared to the Lincoln memorial. It was stated that Dennis had been to the Lincoln memorial 2 times, as if to portray his eminence.</p>
<p>I had</p>
<p>1.) scholarly- (either the sat people were tricky and switched passage one or two around for different tests or it was talking about the tone of passage 2, which was more scholarly than passage one sicne passage one was like (BOOM, DONE!).
2.) Idealisitc
3.) Awe
4.) overstatement
5.) reconciling the diffferences
6.) also I had for a shakespeare answer, taking to the most logical extreme?</p>
<p>people with dismay could be overthinking, there is a reference to Dennis’s shadow like the Lincoln memorial which SHOULD inspire awe and not dismay…</p>
<p>did an answer choice from this passage (Dennis) have superior in of the answer choices. i remember picking that i think. any1 else recognize that</p>
