<p>I remember the “facile” question but I do not remember putting it. Does anyone remember the exact question and other answer choices?</p>
<p>yea… the comical didnt make sense b/c it said “novel situation”… there was nothing novel about the situation. the irony to highlight a solution didnt really make sense either b/c it wasnt a solution, but a problem. i put flippany (a light version of something serious) to show an UNDESIRABLE event… idk… that was the only thing that really fit.</p>
<p>also, i said breakthrough in the field and the other answer was directly view a phenomenon… well thats what i put anyways…</p>
<p>did anybody think that the passage itself was not difficult BUT the questions sucked and the answer choices sucked even more!? often times, i found myself not liking any of the answer choices…</p>
<p>^show how upset the japanese guy is</p>
<p>the facile one was asking how to describe the questions of the interviewer… </p>
<p>also, did people put impromptu or impertinent for the “Young Sensei” remark? 
i put impertinent but i think its impromptu since she "exhausted her repertoire (i didnt know what this meant while taking the test so )</p>
<p>@ anonymousx37 Thank you that sums up my view of this test perfectly. Hated all the answers but comprehended the passages perfectly.</p>
<p>the question for the facile one is" why does author list so many examples of questions"</p>
<p>Ah yes. What were the other answer choices for the facile question?</p>
<p>And yes, it was impromptu. I must admit that one was a hard question. I didn’t want to put impromptu but that made the most sense I guess.</p>
<p>:’( also did people put merely or sincerely for the reinforcement passage???</p>
<p>i put “uniform” for the “solid” because it makes sense if it says “one field with various names”</p>
<p>@ anonymousx37 It was merely because it was followed by something along the lines of “just a symptom”.</p>
<p>anyone seconds me?</p>
<p>A repost in arguement for the used irony one on the behavioral science:
I’m pretty sure the behavioral science one (number 3 on the very bottom of futball1991’s list) is “used irony to highlight the profoundness of a situation”. Flippancy means to be casual or disrespectful, to not to someone seriously. In the story, the writer wrote about saying “Good Boy” to your child after they did something right, and how the most appropriate response to that would be to “woof”. While this could mean that he was taking the argument in a casual lightly, I think the image as a whole is more meant to show how ridiculous it would sound if when you verbally rewarded your child if they gave a response “appropriate” for the compliment.</p>
<p>it said “a solid amount of research/data” and when i was reading, i read solid as substantial… like something tangible…a lot of something… so when i saw substantial, i didnt even second-guess i chose it…</p>
<p>@ simonl I don’t remember the question @.@ What passage and what was the question specifically asking?</p>
<p>it said “profundity of a situation” not to nit-pick… but doesnt profundity mean the deepness? how would that make sense?</p>
<p>the original sentence is “a solid field with various names”?</p>
<p>The flippancy to show an undesirable event doesn’t make sense because the situation wasn’t really undesirable, (having your child say “woof” when you congratulate them). It doesn’t seem so negative to me as weird or strange, if you said that to someone and they said woof.</p>
<p>Edit: if it did say profundity of the situation then I guess that wouldn’t make sense either</p>
<p>Yeah I put substantial sorry :/</p>
<p>why do i remember the sentence being “a solid amount of research”???</p>
<p>@chrxs it’s the dolphin one</p>
