PSAT 2011 Saturday General Discussion

<p>The binoculars was simile. But, the other one was figurative language</p>

<p>prob 76-77</p>

<p>morpheus44. they were both part of the same question - i think analogy is the answer</p>

<p>what would be the analogy…</p>

<p>^I did. I think it was the one on comparing two passages</p>

<p>Wait, weren’t there 2 figurative language questions? One was simile and one was analogy.</p>

<p>the binocular and the environmental things were both being compared and used to explain an issue in their respective passages</p>

<p>my last post was refering to daniel’s analogy Q…</p>

<p>that going after the technology companies to protect personal freedom is just as ridiculous as going after binocular manufacturers (which police use for illegal activities)</p>

<p>wouldn’t ominous be mysterious? so wouldn’t the dark side one be morbid??</p>

<p>@kestrel, yea one was simile, the other analogy</p>

<p>^^Lol no. Morbid has to do with death. I’m pretty sure the answer was ominous.</p>

<p>damn -_- this was such a bad time to get sick. I was going for NMF but doesn’t look like it’s going to happen now…</p>

<p>what about the one with eulogozing and excorciating as choices</p>

<p>answer was extemporating</p>

<p>^I think it was excoriating.</p>

<p>if its the same one as the one with extemporize, it’s extemporize</p>

<p>^^ already discussed ^^</p>

<p>excoriating</p>

<p>EDIT: those were two different questions one was excoriating (researcher was reprimanded), the other was extemporize (came up with it as he went along)</p>

<p>No, we’re talking about 2 different questions. One was excoriating, another was extemporize.</p>

<p>were extemporize and excoriate in the same question though? i dont they were</p>
