<p>what about the vocab one about rose and her smiling response to the presentation?</p>

<p>was the answer discriminating or obscure</p>

<p>discriminating for judges and chili</p>

<p>tacit for rose</p>

<p>no weren't those the choices for the chilly one?</p>

<p>i tihnk i put impetuous for rose...</p>

<p>impetuous is impulsive</p>

<p>The answer was "naive and grandiose ambition" because the author wrote "serious (TOO serious!)." (I'm not sure if the "too" was all caps.)</p>

<p>godot: do u remember the choices for the one with bereft other than conudicive</p>

<p>No. Was that a Sentence Completion question?</p>

<p>yeah 10char</p>

<p>for the bear one i put ____, bellicose???
it was placid/agressive????</p>

<p>k1zuna...</p>

<p>The question for the bear one was something like this:</p>

<p>Though many think bears are aggressive, they are actually placid.</p>

<p>omfg.
i still can't remember the questions!
but did anyone had bellicose in one of their answers?</p>

<p>No, bellicose would imply the bears were angry and aggressive, and they were supposed to be surprisingly calm (placid).</p>

<p>Bellicose for the bear question was wrong. There was no contrast.</p>

<p>was it complacent - bellicose?</p>

<p>aaa12321, it's definitely aggressive, placid because there was contrast since bears are suprisingly ____.</p>

<p>I dont know if this is one here or not (only on page 2 of discussion) but i had repressive/liberal for one</p>

<p>i don't remember seeing the word liberal anywhere</p>

<p>experimental maybe?</p>

<p>no i'm 99% sure it wasn't experimental.
it was like "although the government policies were supposed to be <strong><em>, they were actually</em></strong>" or something like that.
i think it MIGHT have been in 20 min reading section</p>

<p>I have a question about one of the Qs. Something about the word to replace drive with. I know everyone was saying it was vitality but can anyone remember the other word choices?</p>
