<p>omg, i put 22nd for the sunday one too, but that's wrong... :(</p>
<p>I got your:
1.
4.
6.
8. (maybe? not sure if i did)
9.</p>
<p>This lbows</p>
<ol>
<li>"disenfranchised/register" for the question about voting
(I think that "compromise" could have worked, but "garnered their
discontent in a lawsuit" would not have made sense.)</li>
</ol>
<p>I put garnered and compromised, because garner = to accumulate (right? i dont know, just guessing) and.... compromised b/c it fits.
it's not "registered" because that means they "finally realized" / took it into account, right?</p>
<p>thats not what i put for swift and peaceful journey... i put the interstellar space and lower atmosphere one because he was establishing a contrast between the "peace" of space and the turbulent lower atmosphere.</p>
<ol>
<li>"romantic attitude vs. scientific theory" (choice E) for the question in the
astronomy passage that went something like, "The phrase 'swift yet
painless journey' sets up what contrast?"
I put choice C because that's waht it is;; the peaceful journey would be about the interstellar atmosphere...</li>
</ol>
<p>yes, I agree with Indian</p>
<p>no, the way i looked at it was that a lawsuit formally "registers" the concerns they had, but it does not "garner it".</p>

<p>bschenkel, i disagree with your choice for your number 6. it was talking about the difference between interstellar space and the lower atmosphere because it referred to the lower atmosphere as jumbling, throwing, whatevering the ray of light around, whereas space did nothing. There is nothing to suggest romantic attitude.</p>
<p>cool naidu, how do you think you did overall?</p>
<p>what was the question?</p>
<p>bschenkel,</p>
<p>1-5 are right.</p>
<p>6 is C. interstellar space vs lower atmosphere. The paragraph was discussing how light rays travel smoothly through space but once it hits the atmosphere it gets refracted. </p>
<p>7-9 are right.</p>
<p>assassin, "act of registering" = the answer </p>
<p>IMO btw</p>
<h1>6-A little further into the paragraph he describes all the wobbling of the light in the lower atmosphere as opposed to the "swift and peaceful" journey from the distant star until it hits the lower atmosphere.</h1>
<p>I put down disenfranchised/register or w/e</p>
<p>I put swift and peacedul b/c modern science states that light is fast and peaceful is more of a poetic description IMHO.</p>
<p>whew, glad i still have some analysis skills left in me after all!</p>
<p>chimpanzee: was it they couldn't learn the skills?</p>
