<p>It's resigned and defeated because you couldn't really infer from the passage that she was uncertain. Plus that whole passage didn't really fit into the answer uncertain because she said that everything was uniform, like the buildings. Also, she said she knew the dangers ahead, which shows she was certain of the dangers that lie ahead. </p>
<p>Also, for the population one, did you guys put "emphatic" or some other answer choice beginning with s?</p>
<p>For population: it was between emphatic and dismayed for me... I put emphatic.</p>
<p>"Resigned and defeated" seems a bit too strong and negative of a conclusion for a SAT passage about a minority.
But that's just my reasoning.</p>
<p>oh, I put dismayed. Uncertain just didn't seem right because it said she knew the dnagers that lie ahead.</p>
<p>yeah, that's what I though. I put emphatic, that seemed correct.</p>
<p>Where is it supported that she was defeated or resigned to her situation? Her description of the buildings as uniform does not imply that her future is certain. It seems the perfect response you're looking for is "certain and fearful" which makes little sense. Uncertain ("[of a person] not completely confident or sure of something") is not referring to the danger itself but rather what the danger itself may be. "She was completely confident and sure of the danger" is also a stretch, if you take it to mean the danger; but if you say "She was fearful and not completely confident or sure of what danger lies ahead," then to me that is both supported by the passage and makes logical sense with the words used.</p>
<p>For the last time...the answer is not resigned and defeated, as juicy angel as stated, resigned and defeated is too strong and it requires too much inferring from the passage. You must think like a minority, minorities are not resigned and defeated when they come to this country, nor when some kid tells them that they are to assimilate certain ways..we are all just very fearful and for lack of a better word uncertain of our future. If you picked resigned and defeated you either inferred or looked too much into the question, the answer is fearful and uncertain.</p>
<p>off topic, but does anyone remember a fill in answer 1350 and/or 1750?</p>
<p>i got 1750.</p>
<p>For the Venn diagram problem, does anyone remember numbers from it (ie the total or any in x y z) besides 7 and 3?</p>
<p>I think in certain contexts the intersection of two circles will also include the intersection of all three circles which is why <em>certain people</em> are so vehemently insisting the answer is 7.
However, it could also be interpreted in another way (numbers that are only in Y and X will not include numbers that are in Y and X and Z) so that would prove 10 to be the correct answer.</p>
<p>It's not that the question is ambiguous... it's just that we're missing some seriously key information. So anyone remember other numbers?</p>
<p>looked up fear in wikipedia, said something about perceived danger, clears things up, the answer is in fact uncertain and fearful and not the other one. alrighty, we can move on to other things.</p>
<p>i put 1750, emphatic, and "fearful and uncertain"
if ur arguing against the word "uncertain," remember that she was uncertain of her identity as well as the dangers that lay ahead; so if you go off saying that its not stated that she's uncertain and she knew there were dangers, so thats not uncertain, remember, uncertain cud be identity.</p>
<p>What was the one with inclusive? I don't even remember that as an answer choice...</p>
<p>Juicy Angel: I think you got it, but I don't think the actual numbers matter. It just depends on how the venn diagram defines an intersection. The number that describes how many elements are in a intersection could state the actual overall number or the items exclusive to those two sets. It seems that venn diagrams do the latter. I never learned venn diagrams in math, so I fell for the former interpretation.</p>
<p>these CR sound about right?
mercurial
seclusive...inclusive
flotsam
divisive...dissent
foolish imitation?
emphatic
severe
stringent
omnipotent
contemptuous
ironic
dry humor
suspended
venus made up entirely of carbon dioxide
previous information was "not reliable" (i think its worded differently)</p>
<p>It was the sentence completion about how the editors of an anthology were reputed to be selective but it turned out they overly inclusive.</p>
<p>the seclusive...inclusive question went like this:
though the editors were refuted to be <strong><em>, the uneven quality showed them to be quite _</em></strong>.</p>
<p>another answer choice was lax...harsh, but seclusive/inclusive is the right answer</p>
<p>yes, paniwani, stop posting same questions every 2 seconds, your doing fine.</p>
<p>mercurial: yes
seclusive...inclusive: seclusive wasn't a choice....... you're probably thinking of selective.
flotsam: yes
divisive...dissent: yes
foolish imitation?: i put something else, but i'm really not sure about my answer
emphatic: yes
severe: yes
stringent: yes
omnipotent: yes
contemptuous: yes? i think? (i actually kind of forget what i put)
ironic: yes
dry humor: yes
suspended: yes
venus made up entirely of carbon dioxide: yes
previous information was "not reliable" (i think its worded differently): yes</p>
<p>what about 0, 1, 2? those are three integers that multiply to less than 1000 as well. i put 10</p>
<p>0 is not counted as a positive integer, it's just sorta there, like a neutral integer.</p>
