The Reading Thread for ACT December 2009

<p>i think i enjoyed it, i liked the passage about the futuristic space shuttle trip</p>

<p>Yeah, that was a cool passage, even though I just skimmed it.</p>

<p>I guessed on like 3 on the last one though.</p>

<p>I thought the reading was very easy in comparison to the last two ACTs. 10 minutes to spare; I wish I could’ve had that time on science/math :(</p>

<p>i remember question with the answer choices vulgar?</p>

<p>I know what question you’re thinking about, and the answer wasn’t “vulgar.”</p>

<p>I put the one under it… not impolite, but the one above it. Primitive?</p>

<p>yeah i didnt put that eitherr haha</p>

<p>yeah i put sth like primitive too</p>

<p>Yeah, it was primitive.</p>

<p>Anyone remember the 1st or 2nd q on the 2nd passage? The author most likely got his POV from the results of the 2 peeps’ IMF research?</p>

<p>what was the context for the primitive question?</p>

<p>After the research. It wouldn’t make sense if he got the pov of the guys prior to their research.</p>

<p>I can’t remember what the sentence was, but the answer was definitely primitive.</p>

<p>yeah i think i put primitive too. but i’m not sure because i don’t remember the context of the question at all</p>

<p>Context for primitive question: what did “crude” mean when referring to the 500 year old science experiments?</p>

<p>100% primitive</p>

<p>Primitive</p>

<p>and</p>

<p>After the IMF research</p>

<p>ohh ok yeah deff. primitive. and it was deff after the IMF research nothing else would have made sense. </p>

<p>what about the water cycle passage? i didn’t like that one, anyone remember any questions?</p>

<p>For the what was not related to evaporation and condensation question was it something like the sea blankets(or something relating to the poles/frozen water)…I think it was choice D?</p>

<p>I think the hydrological cycle was that one F word to the biogeosomething cycle. It was the second to last or the last question.</p>

<p>@user</p>

<p>it was sea blankets or w/e</p>

<p>@get
idk what question ur talking about</p>

<p>Btw: how should the passage be described? Intricate or simple?</p>
