<p>"an attempt at latter"
Hispanic means to narrater: "loss of her former identity" or "an opportunity for self-relization"?</p>
<p>Lewis liking sports was that they offered an opportunity for individual expression. This wasn't directly stated, but the only way that he could devise complex methods of doing things in various sports was if there was some malleability in the sport.</p>
<p>For romantic; in terms of science, a romantic notion would be an idealized one, often relying on personal intuition. The two hypotheses put forth were based in scientific reasoning. Though visual and well-worded, that there would be dragonflies and marshes is what is assumed if Venus followed the same path as Earth. It was describing how Venus would be similar to Earth. Marshes and dragonflies weren't viewed as an ideal state by the scientist.</p>
<p>loss of her former identity. think of the tone. an opportunity ofr self realization sounds too happy.</p>
<p>I already explained what I thought about the ill-conceived one, but for me the confusion lies here:</p>
<p>Ill-conceived can mean that, historically, they were made with little insight or not well. This is often not true, in that things can be put through rigorous product testing and consumer evaluation but still leave little impression upon the public.</p>
<p>Ill-conceived can mean that the idea itself was ill-conceived, in that in creating it, they did not realize the overall impotency of the idea.</p>
<p>Failure is less ambiguous, but whether something fails or not is independent of said thing's quality. A poorly reviewed comedy that is number one is evidence for this. So here, it depends on whether it meant they literally failed, which we can't know for sure, or whether he considered it a failure as a comic book.</p>
<p>The best combination that would work, were it the right answer, would be that the educational comic books were not done with an understanding of the purpose of of comic books, and that they thus failed in the author's mind. But now, say the original sentence in your head, using this reasoning: he implies that they were an ill-conceived failure. It seems to me that the words are too strong and it is too hard to justify the individual words.</p>
<p>I would still go with "foolish imitation" (we seem to like best the answers we chose :)) simply because the educational comics imitated (which has an implication of being a poor copy) the real comic books and the author thought them foolish. This reasoning basically uses the same reasoning as for the "ill-conceived" answer, but the words are a little more precise and less ambiguous.</p>
<p>I guess we'll see in two weeks though.</p>
<p>Hispanic- girls were fearless of each other or cautious?
Author feels uncertain?
I put ill-conceived failure.
Was Alaska scenic or undeveloped?
what were the questions with seclusive/inclusive and tenable?</p>
<p>cautious. undeveloped. you mean selective/inclusive. that one was about editors.</p>
<p>educational comic books: ill conceived failure (not sure at all -- might be wrong)
lewis sports: individual expression or whatever (fairly sure about this one)
dry humor
didactic
animate
undeveloped
sc: chicanery
sc: the answer's aggregate even though i put preeminence</p>
<p>how is it aggregate? I put preeminence about the Essence magazine and it seems right to me.</p>
<p>Not sure about aggregate/preeminence. Now that I think about it, it depends on the context of the blank, I think. Perhaps Essence was the aggregate of the market or something? Don't know if that makes sense...</p>
<p>definitely preeminence. The magazine was long established and competitors were just emerging... I'm 100% sure</p>
<p>i put preeminence too. but it was just a lucky guess. :D</p>

<hr>
<p>i remember the sentence was something like. essence is known as a ________ but newer magazines are competing for blah. </p>
<p>So I would think it'd be preemminence.</p>
<p>Alrighty so, ive just read through this whole forum looking for an answer to the rectanges in the circle problem :] and i havent found it :[, so can we come to some sort of consensus about it? </p>
<p>I put down 4 rectangles possibel in the circle.</p>
<p>(maybe they will eliminate this question, i remember not understanding it at all, it just seemed so unclear)</p>
<p>it was explained earlier. a lot of ppl are saying 4+ ... there is also a whole thread about this problem</p>
<p>4+ means infinity? is that correct?</p>
<p>it means 4 or more..so i guess infinity would be included.</p>
<p>@Armenian: I put infinite. There's a whole thread about it somewhere in the SAT preparation subforum.</p>

<p>About preeminence/aggregate...
Just thought of this: aggregate refers to a lot of different things grouped together (milk+cookies+shoes) so I don't think it could really refer to Essence.
Though I felt the sentence was about how Essence made up the bulk of the niche market's magazine sales, so if aggregate somehow fits that... I don't know. "Aggregate" and "market" are often paired together, so that really threw me off.</p>
<p>oops i put inclination for the magazine fill in... oh well :)</p>
<p>what about the short paragraph about civil movement? the purpose of the first sentence and the role of authors/artists in the movement.</p>
<p>to put blacks in a diff light in literary works etc.</p>
