Official December SAT I Forum

<p>lol..no case will be closed until dec 19th...trust me.</p>

<p>The marble answer was 8. there are 20 total, and you've picked 3 reds and 4 greens. It wants to know the minimum amount of reds you can still take and have more reds than greens. The lease majority of reds you can have out of 20 total is 11. 11-3=8</p>

<p>I can see all the CCers being in a casual conversation with real life friends, seeing the results, and being like "omg, gotta run. Im going to go rub it in the faces of other CCers that I was right!"</p>

<p>haha yeh the marble answer was 8 for sure. and yeah xindianx. that case is closed. its ill conceived failures.</p>

<p>no it's not........!</p>

<p>imitation</p>

<p>adj : not genuine or real; being an imitation of the genuine article; "it isn't fake anything; it's real synthetic fur"; "faux pearls"; "false teeth"; "decorated with imitation palm leaves"; "a purse of simulated alligator hide" [syn: fake, false, faux, simulated] </p>

<p>failure</p>

<p>2: an event that does not accomplish its intended purpose; "the surprise party was a complete failure" [ant: success] </p>

<p>dude man.. think about it. they werent fake comic books.....those "attempted comic books" were for educational purposes.. but didnt last long, so they failed. in other words, these comic books did not "accomplish its intended purpose" (straight from the definition)</p>

<p>yes, yes it is. Somebody refute me point by point if you believe otherwise</p>

<p>Words have shades of meaning. The sense of "imitation" wasn't used in reference to the physical comic books themselves, it was used in relation to their imitating the purpose and methods of a comic book. The entire next paragraph explained why an educational comic book could never work. Oxford defines imitation as "a thing intended to simulate or copy something else," which fits in with the purpose with which the educational comic books were made.</p>

<p>no i was referring to a different marble question, the one you are referring to was the one on the fill ins, there was another which involved probabilities and wooden, red, green and blue marbles...anyone recall this question</p>

<p>does anyone know the answer to the x symmetry one with a graph and asked for the new graph... was it a or b</p>

<p>Failure is a better term than imitation. A failure suggests that the comic books have no real value other than to pass time in between actual learning, which the author clearly believed they did.</p>

<p>yes i do, the answer was def 20 becasue there were 12 red glass and that was three times the green glass making 4 greens... their also ended up being the same amount of wooden things as green glass 4. so the total was 20</p>

<p>b... if i remember correctly, not sure though</p>

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

<p>perhaps i read that question wrong then, thank you moejoe</p>

<p>I dont remember the answer choice letter on the symmetry one, but all you had to do was pick the one with the same y intercept that had the same shape, but inverted.</p>

<p>writing question--
was it teach nothing that would blah blah ( i think its this one?)
or teach only that which would not or something??</p>

<p>I put that which would not</p>

<p>dangit!! i put sundry instead of bucolic..damnt..i thought sundry meant that it pertains to one category so because he only wrote about one thing..farming..i guess it would be okay....omg....i got that one wrong though..u guys make me sad =(</p>

<p>for the writing IDs, i put three no errors:
"hardly anyone" question
bird beak
girl accountant helping artist </p>

<p>sound right?</p>
