<p>I confirm that the politician question was correct as is (A).</p>
<p>I think you’re right; unfortunately, I picked despite.</p>
<p>It’s “you play”
The sentence sounded very awkward without it and there was no subject in the other choices.</p>
<p>Yeah it was “Although more skilled a politician, he was less convincing at the debate than was his opponent.” I think I’m fairly close</p>
<p>@Syndekit yep. if you took away the appositive phrase( I think that’s what it’s called… the one set off by commas), you’d get</p>
<p>The musical teacher advises that… (you practice) The other ones didn’t make sense</p>
<p>Yep, and the other one was, “Despite a more skilled politician, he was …”</p>
<p>The one about the musical teacher was like “The musical teacher advises that, learning to play an instrument for the first time, practice playing scales before moving on to more complicated songs” ?</p>
<p>Oh, I remember now. I left it as it was. (Although,…)</p>
<p>CollegeBound I put Although</p>
<p>I put “thus, the homeowners” because the landmark status sentence didn’t have a follow up to it afterwards. Deleting it would isolate the landmark sentence.</p>
<p>at the end of the paragraph before it, the passage was talking about how people were starting to defend modern architecture. the landmark sentence proves the success that these people had. </p>
<p>the homeowner sentence has nothing to do with the success. the homeowner sentence was basically like homeowners were happy because their value went up. it had no correlation to the defenders of modern architecture</p>
<p>doe the length of the essay matter? i wrote pretty small and got about 5 lines onto the 2nd page. is it possible to get a 9/10 with that?</p>
<p>No, the homeowners were happy because the landmarks raised the value of their homes so they were on board with it. “Thus” clearly explains this relationship, and that sentence fully explains why landmark status is important.</p>
<p>sportskid its out of 12</p>
<p>i know i meant 9 OR 10. sorry for the confusion</p>
<p>HAHAHA that essay sucked for me. I did a whole page about post-colonialist “otherization” philosophy, slaves, and Nazis.</p>
<p>I also got rid of the homeowners. (:</p>
<p>Ahh… What would -3 to -5 be?</p>
<p>Does anybody know the answer to the one about being more comfortable playing guitar after a few weeks? I put C but I thought B was also an acceptable choice.</p>
<p>Is there a general consensus on whether or not we were supposed to remove the Homeowners sentence? I deleted it, but I haven’t seen a clear opinion yet.</p>
