<p>It increased the rate of DROWSINESS. Soporific, not catalyst.</p>
<p>Flaming Mango,
it was on one of the released tests I have, but that one was ridiculously hard. Much harder than this one.</p>
<p>This one felt like an -2=800 -4=770 test if you ask me</p>
<p>does anyone remember the other answers on the vocab question of the teacher/student being late? i honestly dont remember this question or what i put on it.</p>
<p>apparently the correct answer is excuse…credible</p>
<p>for the one about the bees/trees it was definitely defining coevolution through an example. The paragraph showed how the bees/trees both helped each other out equally.</p>
<p>is there a consensus on the coevolution question from apples and bees?</p>
<p>So, why was the turkey one not panacea? when I google melatonin panacea serveral things pop up about assisting in sleep deprivation. I understand soporific’s definition, but why is it the better answer? thanks for the help</p>
<p>@JonDrums</p>
<p>The question was asking for something that increases drowsiness. A panacea cures a lot of things (that’s what it is right?) so, it wouldn’t make sense</p>
<p>Melatonin is a “natural soporific,” not a “natural panacea.” Melatonin doesn’t have especially curative properties</p>
<p>panacea: –noun. 1. a remedy for all disease or ills; cure-all. </p>
<p>that doesnt fit in the sentence</p>
<p>nope, no consensus</p>
<p>And sorry for being so haughty about it earlier. I just don’t see a counterargument there. I thought she introduced and defined the idea in that paragraph, and didn’t really move into argument until the next one.</p>

<p>There has a been a lot of debate but I believe that the answer is in fact recipient. At the point where the line was located, the author began to shift from how the plant might be drawing both humans/bees in. Even though it’s not written until several sentences later, it is a turning point in the passage. The bee was the “recipient” of the seeds instead of the bee being the “object”. That was what I thought, I looked over the question many times.</p>
<p>@ Herro1234, I also put excuse and credible for the student being late.</p>
<p>For the EXCEPT question, I put appeal to authority. I looked back and I found something closely resembling it at the part where she mentions people who agree with her (forgot what). She mentioned scientists and other farmers but there was no specific name so I put that down. </p>
<p>I did exceptionally well on English today even though I thought it was very hard. I am normally very good at English but on the January one, I only got in the 500s. I looked over this thread and am glad to say I’ve got my mojo back (or or at least I hope).</p>
<p>Former argument: Bees and plants exist to serve us and we are the ultimate controller/decider of their lives.
Counterargument: Bees and plants help each other and maybe the potato is forcing us to plant it instead of the other way around.</p>
<p>I’m fairly certain the bee question was something like “defining a word through illustration”</p>
<p>There wasn’t an argument in the paragraph it was referencing, the argument came a couple paragraphs after when he had the “revelation”</p>
<p>-3 is not the same as -4. They do have the -1/4 for getting a question wrong, but for Raw score they round everything down. So -3 is still -3.</p>
<p>Okay. I understand your point, although I think it is contrived.</p>
<p>Can you explain why it ISN’T defining the term of coevolution through illustration?</p>
<p>blackpaint is right. The question was regarding the specific paragraph about bees and plants. Coevolution equates both the bee and the plant. the former argument had to do with humans, but the paragraph the question referred to was only about bees and plants.</p>
<p>Thus, it is defining coevolution through example</p>
<p>But didn’t the answer choice say illustration of the <em>origin</em> of a term? Or something with word origin? That’s why I crossed it off</p>
<p>Marinebio444, actually, they round normally, so your raw score is 68-3.75==>64 or -4</p>
<p>positive about them rounding normally.</p>
<p>What does the use of “separate lives” indicate?
-A plan she had previously espoused</p>
<p>^ What was the wording of the other option that had the mother in it?</p>
<p>Ok, but either way, I got -3 in March and got a 740, what could I get with a -3 this time? The curve is most likely, at least in my opinion, going to be more generous this time, because I thought it was significantly harder…</p>
<p>Was one of the answers to the sentence completions magnanimous? and was another one decorum or jocularity?</p>
