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

<p>I PUT USED ONLY ONE ASPECT TOO!! i dont remember exactly what though.</p>

<p>There was definitely a better answer than the 1 aspect answer . Do you remember the other answers?</p>

<p>yeah i obviously remember dont remember the exact choice. but it was one of those that came at the end. it said which would author II agree regarding passage I</p>

<p>i put that author would prolly say, that author was too narrow/one aspect in his analysis</p>

<p>are you sure there was a better answer than that</p>

<p>i am sorry i dont remember the other choices, does any1 remember this question</p>

<p>BAh.. I never do well in CR, but this time it wasn’t too bad.</p>

<p>This was the last on right? If so, I think some of the answers were that Author 1 somehow acknowledged that de Vere might not be Shakespeare (he didn’t), Author 1’s support was too subjective and other stuff. I can’t remember what I put.</p>

<p>author 1 was lame. he was “de Vere this, de Vere that.. oh de Vere is so amazing..” blah blah blah. “de Vere” and his tests.</p>

<p>Hahahaa.</p>

<p>yeah these were the choices</p>

<p>anyone wish to enlighten us</p>

<p>was there one about…</p>

<p>“facile and slogan?”</p>

<p>I put that but im not sure if its the right answer</p>

<p>no thats wrong</p>

<p>I can’t imagine the pressure on the SAT of getting less than 4-5 wrong to get a 700+ if you come across a question you have no clue on but you have to answer it to increase your chances. Even with guessing from 2-3 choices, it’s still hard. I’m taking this January 26th, does that usually have good curves or no curves since not many people take it?</p>

<p>Bah, the Shakespeare passage was hard ):</p>

<p>…Wow,you guys have good memory! My mind went blank after I finished it,lol.</p>

<p>what was the one where it had “facile and slogan”</p>

<p>what was the answer to that one?</p>

<p>Haha yeah, the worst thing, though, is that I often can’t decide between two answers for a question, and I’ll ultimately choose one, but I can’t remember what the heck I chose.</p>

<p>For the Shakespeare Passage II question that dealt with the passage: </p>

<p>“NOBODY … (Shakespeare was not)”</p>

<p>I too put that the author was being too subjective, but then I put that he was taking his logic to the extreme. The author of the first passage continued to limit the class of playwrights by adding requirements (nobility, educated, etc) and the author of Passage II was claiming that with such standards, NO ONE would be able to be a playwright. So I think IN CONTEXT OF THOSE LINES, the logic to the extreme answer choice is the BEST ANSWER.</p>

<p>For the governess, I don’t think the point of kid running out of room screaming was to show the extent of how children want to fool the adults. First off, adults is plural, and they were acting in deference to the HOSTESS, singular. Second, I took that entire passage to be talking in a sarcastic manner. Seriously, why would a kid be lead howling from the room? Why the use of “howling” rather than “wide-eyed, shaken”? </p>

<p>Second, I’m pretty sure the “glib” question was “scholarly.” I remember them asking you to compare Passage TWO with Passage ONE. </p>

<p>Ykim917, I agree.</p>

<p>EDIT: For the Puerto Rican one, I was tempted to put “reconciling two controversial viewpoints,” but really–what viewpoints, and what controversy? Controversial viewpoint is pretty different from opposing backgrounds. I put that he was trying to argue against a way of doing things, since in his first sentence he stated that Puerto Rican writers could not be classified as American or Spanish, implying that they often are.</p>

<p>Was the sentence completion with blight as the right answer, the one that had the word stagnated?</p>

<p>Plz answer. I went out this evening and I couldn’t stop thinking about it.</p>
