Official May Sat Critical Reading Discussion

<p>apparentley, mastodons. but i specifically checked and the second passage only mentioned that mastodons didn't survive an ice age, and that they hunted for sea mammals and stuff (not really "game" IMO)</p>

<p>okay so I'm have no idea what the experimental section was
I got 4 reading sections...2 immediately in the beginning...
I know that one of them was the yawning one..but I can't rememebr whether it came first or second...
casue I remmeber me being more confident on the ist one..</p>

<p>so anyone with reading experimental...so u know if the yawning one was the first or the second experimental</p>

<p>i put that they acknowledged the fact it was hard to to travel in the glaciers
and in an another one which asked what evidence would help the second author
i put like boats found about 15000yrs ago</p>

<p>For the yawning passage, I saw some people discussing a question about the overall tone of the passage? I have no memory of this; can anyone recall the question more exactly? Hopefully I didnt skip a question and mess up my entire CR test, because I think I did better than last time...</p>

<p>I also got two reading to begin with... and I put boat anchors would substantiate the argument.</p>

<p>crude anchors found 15,000, is that what you meant?</p>

<p>do you mean anchors from 15000 years ago? All I know is I put one with anchors that was more than 13500 years or whatever it was</p>

<p>boats anchors found 15000 years ago was the answer. It proves that boats were used and provides and alternate explanation for that 14,500 year old arrowhead</p>

<p>therhymegirl, I got 2 reading sections from the start as well.</p>

<p>sibsagar12, I put the 15000 years ago thing too.</p>

<p>yep elliot</p>

<p>was one of the choices humor? because i changed it at the end and i didn't want to but i felt like it =(</p>

<p>my order was:
1) essay
2) CR
3) CR
4) Math
5) Writing
6) CR = one with workers/factories + ice age migration....
7) Math
8) CR = library/little women
9) Math
10) Writing.....</p>

<p>I REALLY HOPE my section 6 one is experimental....cuz i really f'd that up...lol...</p>

<p>yeah did anyone remember putting anecdote for that small story regarding the plane and pilots</p>

<p>Was it a "humorous aside" for that lengthy description of yawning? I didnt think that was defining yawning, I'm pretty sure everyone knew what yawning meant.</p>

<p>no i put it was defining what yawning meant</p>

<p>I thought it was indeed defining, i didn't find it humorous, only boring</p>

<p>sibs: I remember putting anecdote for something, don't remember what though</p>

<p>on your thing either section 2 or 3 was experimental. i had the same format.</p>

<p>the question where the answer was anecdote was different from the yawning interjection thing. I put down defining a term.</p>

<p>So....was the section on factories/workers + ice age...an experimental? thanks</p>

<p>do u remember putting anecdote for a questions . other choices was understatement, methaphor and others</p>

<p>I also had the factories/ice age, not sure if it is experimental or not</p>

<p>sibs: considering the other choices you gave, it was definitely anecdote</p>
