SAT January 2012 - Critical Reading

Test Preparation SAT Preparation
601

<p>For the crops one, i said that it was “know about the differing soil qualities”</p>

<p>i said this since the opinion that needed to be undermined was that of those thought that the possibility that they farmed far away was little</p>

<p>ie, we were trying to find a statement that undermined the opinion saying that “they probably did not farm far away”</p>

<p>thus we are looking for a statement saying “they farmed far away”</p>

<p>and knowing that soil quality is important since they were in a damp area and far away it was drier</p>

602

<p>The photography passage was a killer for me. If I lose my 800, it’ll definitely be attributed to that passage.</p>

603

<p>I really hope this isn’t going to be a harsh curve because the vocab wasn’t too difficult.</p>

604

<p>Right, I thought the CR was really difficult. CR -7(confirmed) but most likely -9, Math -2/-3, Writing-dunno much, probably 700. That puts me in the low 2100’s, I think. Bad.</p>

605

<p>What about the village one? Wasn’t it that they traded with people? There was one that said neighbors but I am pretty sure that was wrong because it said that the village was in the middle of the mud thing. What were the other answers to that one?</p>

606

<p>For the traffic passage, was the law in England about the five mile speed limit a landmark traffic law or an assuming historical fact?</p>

607

<p>I think the answer to the question about “cold-blood” was heartless detachment. The author had just said that he or she had a “high morale,” and so the opposite of him or her would be heartlessly detached in looking at the idea of getting a job. Because the author’s morale was high, the author was not pessimistic about looking for a job.</p>

<p>@000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo</p>

<p>It was definitely traded.</p>

609

<p>NEW QUESTION!!! Was the 4 mph law about England an “entertaining historical fact?”</p>

610

<p>That’s what I put, but my “THIS ANSWER IS OBVIOUSLY WRONG” senses were flailing at that. None of the others made sense to me though. >_></p>

611

<p>@chac im out atm, ill update when i get home.</p>

612

<p>@chac: yes, it was an entertaining historical fact.</p>

613

<p>Yea, looking back, I think it’s landmark traffic law now…</p>

614

<p>My parents… -_-</p>

<p>Less than a 2300 and I’ll be retaking the test…</p>

<p>So far so good after reviewing these answers though…</p>

615

<p>wait… it it really entertaining historical fact??? If it was, good: I got it right, but now Landmark Traffic Law seems like a possibility…</p>

616

<p>I put landmark traffic law since it was noted as one of the earliest (if not the earliest) traffic law in England and was set at a time when automobiles first began to hit the streets. It was definitely a landmark event since it marked the beginning of traffic laws, but I was deciding between entertaining fact as well.</p>

617

<p>I know it was traded but I swear there were two answers that had the word traded in them… One said with neighbors and the other with other civilizations or villages or something…</p>

<p>Anyone? Please…</p>

618

<p>@SAT Thanks. I need to relieve some stress by owning noobs on Uncharted.
Also, what did you get for the “Speed Limit in England was 4 mph no faster than guy holding red flag” question? I got entertaining historical fact.</p>

619

<p>It was an entertaining historical fact. When I weighed them, it just didn’t have the sense of being a “landmark traffic law.”</p>

620

<p>@000ooo000ooo</p>

<p>One was TRADED with villages</p>

<p>One was SHARED LAND with neighbors</p>

<p>I gotchu!</p>
