*OFFICIAL* June 2012 ACT English section discussion

<p>It seems that no one has posted yet
Just write down ur thoughts of English section or confirm answers :)</p>

<p>Did any1 remember the jumble question and umbrella in the first passage?</p>

<p>Yeah I remember the jumble one. It was like “entryway jumble” or something it and it read really awkward.</p>

<p>What’s proper answer for those two…</p>

<p>The jumble one was really weird. I put the answer with a comma for that one, not sure if I’m right. I was assuming that jumble was a noun, but I have no clue what a jumble is…</p>

<p>I put no comma or any other punctuation but also no idea if that’s right.</p>

<p>I didn’t put a comma, but I agree that was weird. That question was the only one I had trouble with.</p>

<p>what was the answer to that tricky one omit or check? forgot the sentence</p>

<p>I just googled jumble and the definition is “A confused or disordered mass”</p>

<p>question 25: it had to do with the plant using something to protect (it) or (itself)</p>

<p>Sprung one was</p>

<p>No Change (A), right?</p>

<p>for the one that said something “like a dragon’s tongue” and something with a flag</p>

<p>did you need to put a period before like to separate it from the previous part that talked about a forest?</p>

<p>smfmets I said question 25 was it, thinking that itself would be repetetive. And yeah iris, I said no change</p>

<p>it vs. itself… i also need that one.</p>

<p>for jumble i put no comma</p>

<p>^ There was a period. It talked about how forest surrounded the castle like a 0000. Like a dragon’s tongue, the red flag blah blah.</p>

<p>I put a period to separate the dragon tongue one. For the it, itself I put itself, eventhough 2 days ago my english teacher told us to never use itself, myself, etc. unless absolutely necessary. Putting it just seemed unclear to me “the plant protected it” vs “the plant protected itself”. “It” makes it seem like it’s protecting something else, which is why I put itself.</p>

<p>Did anyone else have a lot of NO CHANGE ones for the first ten questions</p>

<p>Well… I put plant under radiation sth idk if it’s the question u guys r talking about</p>

<p>LED lights. Sprung? Anyone with me? :(</p>

<p>Im pretty confident that the answer was it. The structure of the sentence was discussing how the parts of the plant protected it, NOT the parts of the plant protected itself. That which preformed the action was not the plant but rather its components which made using itself unclear.</p>
