I think the error was the line of poetry not having perfect meter.</p>
<p>Im pretty sure the reason she didnt want her mom there was due to emotional and cultural differences…that was stated in the passage clearly enough.
Right, I said the wind was not malicious!
Also, with regards to the communicative/noncommunicative thing, I’m pretty sure that’s right because all of the other answers were stated directly in the passage</p>
<p>This is the same test as the ones given in January 2010 ( <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/sat-subject-tests-preparation/853833-january-2010-literature.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/sat-subject-tests-preparation/853833-january-2010-literature.html</a> ) and June 2009 ( <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/sat-subject-tests-preparation/726054-june-2009-literature.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/sat-subject-tests-preparation/726054-june-2009-literature.html</a> ).</p>
<p>What about sunlight? Does sunlight dance more or less than warm-legged cicadas. The only cicadas I have ever seen are either dead or so disgusting I wish they were dead but perhaps the ETS has different opinions…</p>
<p>Yes, coming to terms with identity.</p>
<p>Hmm, I remember that part of the passage but not the question. I think I said that he thought that the error didn’t matter because something or other is more important.</p>
<p>I hate, hate, hate that SAT subtracts .25 points for every wrong answer. That’s going to kill me. I guess I used my, like, one question buffer up with the stupid “error” question. (The irony is overwhelming me.)</p>
<p>The question regarding turrets? Castles, right?</p>
<p>What exactly was the error question?</p>
<p>LiamNeeson, you’re a God. </p>
<p>rdash, I said cicadas, because the cicadas weren’t, like, related to the title. She was the sunlight (free or whatever). She was the truck (“shaking,” lol), and the jukebox was providing the music for the dance…</p>
<p>@ppurple: Yea, military/castles for that one.
@sky: I was between that and my answer. It could probably be either, don’t know for sure either way. I’m quite certaom about the communicative one though, I distinctly remember reading a later part of the passage and then crossing out that answer.</p>
<p>What were the answers to the two or three “technical term” questions on the first passage? Was the form of “The Dance” parallel “rftoiergnr5a?”</p>
<p>Someone tell me that “liquid element” was inflated language and that the point of the first story was something about “class.” I might cry, otherwise. </p>
<p>Seriously- with all the inflated language- I thought it was slighting pretension!!!</p>
<p>Isn’t “Liquid element” onomatopoetic? I mean just say it a few times… (anything can be an onomatopoeia if you try hard enough)</p>
<p>Liquid element is definitely bombast - it’s a ridiculous way of saying water.
The cicadas were ‘preparing to dance’ or something like that. The sunlight did not correspond to dancing.
And, er, do you guys remember any of the poetry questions?</p>
<p>The dance poem was parallel structures, right? ‘Trochaic trimeter’ seemed a bit much for the poem…
With regards to the Memory of Oldham, I thought the poet was saying Oldham’s poetry was too forceful and not refined…or something</p>
<p>I thought the speaker was dancing “freely” like sunlight might stream through a window?</p>
<p>I thought the cicadas were an aside at the end to show, like, a return to nature after the world ends? (Wow. I sound really stupid.)</p>
<p>@LiamNeeson Only three of the passages were the same with those tests. It seems like there were four new ones: Oldham, the Dance, the music lesson, and the snow storm.</p>
<p>What did you all get for the “what did Nisus represent” question?</p>
<p>Oldham’s success!</p>
<p>Yay! :)</p>

<p>Curve predictions? </p>
<p>I’m saying…</p>
<p>60-58 = 800
57=790
56=790
55=780
…
50=710 </p>
<p>I don’t think this was hard enough for us to merit, like, a super generous Barron curve where -5 is an 800? Just don’t think it was that difficult.</p>
<p>(Granted, I’m predicting I’ll slide in between a 700 and a 740…)</p>
