<p>The author did in fact define yawn. The African American passage was the easiest :D lol.</p>
<p>2 vocab questions...
the one about the chefs...i chose discriminating because
1) that is defined as "Distinguishing between"
and
2) Most people associate discriminating with people, and therefore would not choose discriminating. Most people would probably choose obscure, since it seems more reasonable...since this was the last question in the section, wouldn't the answer be the "choice less people would choose" (as cited in one of the prep books I read...)</p>
<p>also
the one about sound....the beginners were "abashed," but can't this be interpreted as "suprised"...therefore giving the sentence a positive connotation and making "mellifluous" correct? </p>
<p>who agrees with me??</p>
<p>It was discriminating....</p>
<p>The sound was was cacophonus because the musicians were abashed which means ashamed or embarrased so it had to be bad sounding....</p>
<p>I have some questions about the journalism paragrahs
The first one was explaining a movement rite
and the second passage was refuting that movement </p>
<p>Is that right?</p>
<p>journalism?
i just remember the two were contradicting eachother</p>
<p>Yeah... I think that I completely messed up on the Journalism one. There goes my 800 =(</p>
<p>Does anyone remember any of those questions (not counting the irony one, which I got) ?</p>
<p>Well one was the standard what is the relationship between the two paragraphs....</p>
<p>Does anyone remember what the subject of the passage in the section that had two long passage sections.... I know the 2nd set was a double passage about cloves and ice age... what was the other one... was it the shopkeepers one?</p>
<p>so there were 4 long passage sections....
1. Yawning
2. Shopkeepers
3. Cloves and beginnings of America
4. African American girl who loves books</p>
<p>Short passages
1. Journalism (2 passages on this)
2. Chineese women
3.
4.</p>
<p>o ya was irony the answer to the last jounralism question?</p>
<p>oh i put irony for the journalism one too! but i can't remember the rest of the questions. About the Clairvoyance question, i narrowed it down to that and mentor and i think i picked mentor. DId anyone put that one?</p>
<p>no, the answer is claivoyance</p>
<p>What was the passage to the left of the chinese women one?</p>
<p>Short passages
1. Journalism (2 passages on this)
2. Chineese women
3. I had a short one on invasive plant species (experimental?)
4. The "Renaissance" woman who liked to draw with crayons (experimental?)</p>
<p>I think the plant one is experimental but I had the crayon one and my experimental was math.</p>
<p>Renaissance woman was a real one (I think this was next to chineese women)
1 of the questions for this was the last lines represent a naive grandiose ambition or something
The short one on invasive plant species was an experimental</p>
<p>yea it was irony because the guy contradicts himself</p>
<p>oh yea, for the clovis passage, did both authors use extended metaphor or direct quotation?</p>
<p>I ran out of time for the last two so i just bubbled what i thought was right (direct quotation and psg 2 supporting psg1)</p>
<p>last one was right, but i'm not sure about the metaphor/direct quotation (or was it something else? i eliminated the other 3)</p>
<p>I don't remember having a Renaissance woman passage.</p>
<p>should be direct quotation
which is also the answer to one of the questions in journalism i think</p>
<p>Can someone give me the exact question in the journalism passages to which the answer is "irony"? I don't recall that question for some reason.</p>
<p>The question referred to a sentence in passage two about how most advocates of journalism reform do not adhere to reporting the truth, hence the irony.</p>
<p>that yawning one was hilarious
everyone in my room was yawning</p>
<p>I want to bump this one back up. Did everyone have the vocab question about "So-and-so is the epitome of ____; even in hard times, she perseveres." Something to that effect?</p>
<p>I remember some of the choices were temerity, sagacity, and tenacity. And I believe I got it wrong.</p>
