<p>everyone agree impossible was an answer for the erie canal</p>

<p>yes it was impossible</p>

<p>@alarge, do u remember if “equal to” and “autumn” were the last 2 questions of the reading section?</p>

<p>Yep, equal to was the last one, autumn was the one directly before it.</p>

<p>Anyone remember the other answer choices to the emotional response one? better yet what was the emotional response’s full answer and question?</p>

<p>all i have are
appreciate story
criticize
emotional…</p>

<p>There was one about how the president before Clinton thought the idea of building was insane. What was that one? Also, Blackman, how many b’s were in the last passage?</p>

<p>can someone please expand on the warrior tattoo incomplete question.
i do not remember the question nor the answer</p>

<p>@alargeblackman (your username is interesting): I believe the question went along the lines of “How did the narrator feel/react at the end of the passage?”</p>

<p>YES, so i didn’t skip any questions! thanks dude.</p>

<p>How did yall figure emotional? I don’t even know what I put down for that one…still confused.</p>

<p>No prob @ Miami, you probably did better than you thought. This was a difficult test in the first three sections. I expect -1 36, -2 35 , -3 34, -4 33 -5 32 -6-7 31- 8-9 30</p>

<p>i think i put the emotional one because it expressed her feelings on the subject</p>

<p>what was the answer to the question that stated how the two paragraphs were different?</p>

<p>What was the question for the answer monumental projects. I remember that being an option for a question but I don’t think I put it.</p>

<p>Wait, In the list of consolidated answers, when it says “soothing sun”, does it mean “Pleasing”? cuz thats what i put. What about “7. Categories wital used”,
“8.Evidence from his plays”?! What were those questions?</p>

<p>do you guys remember the options for the punctuates one? (meaning the other answer choices)… also if anyone else remembers the following questions… “wood”… “last one greatest pivotal…”… “impossible…” “funded while constructed”… and “soothing sun” i would appreciate elaboration… thanks :)</p>

<p>first question for the passage about the english dictionary. it asked what the passage most effectively does (i think).
I said that it shows the development of the english dictionary and the need there was for it</p>

<p>other options were: passage provides a chronology; something about shakespeare; something else</p>

<p>can anyone verify?</p>

<p>for categories wital used… the question was what is the purpose of lines 10-11 or something like that and it was examples of a dictionary and how the topics were organized…</p>

<p>could you explain the soothing/ pleasing sun question… idr it.</p>

<p>@ ohiostate, it was like people had an incentive to innovate monumental projects such as bridges and stuff</p>
