Sat VERBAL Dec 4

<p>theres also something bout being viewed in art and i wrote something that has to do with pain and suffering and stuff combined as a masterpiece or something - i dunno - i still think that misguided question is a misconception if neone hears me!</p>

<p>yeah I put pain and suffering into an art</p>

<p>For the comparsion of the last passage, did the author of Passage 2 SHOWED CAUTION Interest or something?
For the Art question: Anyone put that life (something like that) is conceived on a large scale?
The final question on the interview passage was the author using historical studies: ANyone put that?</p>

<p>anyone put in that africa/denamrk passage... went from like almost destroying her life to a genius narcissist.</p>

<p>how did she destroy his life in the beginning? thought she was a mythical person</p>

<p>her farm was devastated or something</p>

<p>does anyone remember any more questions from the verbal sections?</p>

<p>I would say awe-inspiring to contradictory. The lioness portion described her as courageous and worthy of being deemed legendary, while the last paragraph said that she was something of a paradox.</p>

<p>Let's what else....</p>

<p>Slave passage:
-Literacy rates
-Grand scale
-Affect behavior of interviewer/interviewee
-Alter the nature of the interviewee's testimony
-Strongest memories are during childhood
-Demographics
-Factors to consider when analyzing historical sources
-Results of an interview done by both a black and white person
-All-encompassing view of life (at first glance the interviews seemed to be sufficient)</p>

<p>AI:
-Functions of AI not fully implemented or something. I say this only because it pretty much said AI was limited such that it could play chess but not think in three dimensions. But this could be wrong.
-People who speculate about future things instead of worrying about observable phenomena?
-Humans will be supplanted by the robots
-We can only understand phenomena partially
-Poetry is a superfluous enterprise
-Pure logic
-Human perception
-bring up for consideration
-The first dude was skeptical
-Greeks had outmoded views
-Human views destined to become obsolete/outmoded</p>

<p>MYTH:
-myth not easily separated from life
-Writes her myths as carefully as she crafts her own life or something
-Came back from a horrible failure
-Awe-inspiring to contradictory
-Last passage criticizes her
-She became legendary in the eyes of the Kenyans or whatever
-Use
-Transmute pain into art</p>

<p>AMERICA:
-misguided view
-cause unhappiness
-class and rank ultimately not important
-prevalent tendency
-concept of Americans (it was either this or comparing them to migration, but I think I said the first, don't remember)
-Stitched pattern</p>

<p>Anyone remember their answers to any of these?</p>

<p>bumpzor tot he maxxor</p>

<p>legendofmax: For the answer about the women achieving nearly mythical status, was another choice to that question(which I dont remember) about she had a genius leading the community. I put the former, same as you, but these two choices are tempting to me.</p>

<p>I don't think there is much evidence that she was leading the community. She was just admired by it.</p>

<p>grand scale in the interview passage. I dont remember that choice. Can you tell me the question and for the all encompassing view that you put, was that the question (I dont remember) where also one of the choice was a false sense of comprehensiveness?</p>

<p>No it was the first question. "he uses this quote to emphasize the_____"</p>

<p>Oh i see. The exact choice(I think what you meant) was the comprehensiveness(E). And then the next question that followed that first one about what would directly challlenged...something like that...you remember?...I put something having to do with the geographic distribution of the interviews or something. Does that sound familiar? Also, was one of your answers about using footnotes and citations to credit the orginated source?</p>

<p>I put that something about the source being unique to historians for the first question because the quote was primarily concerned with the fact that the interviews represented a rare first person account of slavery.</p>

<p>I don't honestly remember lol I know I didn't talk about footnotes though. The thing that would directly challenge was that childhood memories were strong (he argued that old age = crappy memory)</p>

<p>thedude: you're prob. right on that one</p>

<p>What was the answer to that perspective question in the AI passage? I had something about analysis being only part of the brains function but some other people had something about perceptions being difficult to recreate in AI . What did you guys put.</p>

<p>thedude: how sure are you that the answer is correct? but was comprehensiveness one of the choiices</p>

<p>I cannot really say anything is for sure in those CR's but I am pretty confident that comprehensiveness was the correct answer because the focus of the whole passage was to question how representative the interviews where of the slave expierence as a WHOLE.</p>
