<p>I put new trait about the professor (meaning that he was extremely curious in other subjects besides math). And, again, the tone of the passage seemed very benevolent. I’m not sure why they’d want to make the professor seem bad.</p>

282

<p>I don’t think it was social criticism. How does that even make sense? It was that other choice. I forget what it was though…</p>

283

<p>The narrator was talking about how now the country is not a colony it is time to develop culture a.k.a reassess (the answer choice) the situation.</p>

284

<p>what was the answer for SC graffiti?</p>

285

<p>what was the sentence for the graffti sentence completion and I can tell you the answer?</p>

286

<p>Graffiti was like assign allow or something I think.</p>

<p>It did not ask what the contradiction was an example of, I think. I think it asked what the contradiction pointed out, or something along the lines of that.</p>

<p>Prize, at the end she states how she dislikes walls and fences.</p>

287

<p>It was something like people who blank artistic values to graffiti, accoridng to the mayor, was merely blanking vendalism. I put assign and encourage</p>

288

<p>Not exactly dislike, sure, but it was implied that she didn’t want to be enclosed in them. Why would she choose to end her passage that way if that wasn’t the main point? Why would she use fences and walls instead of going into detail about how she further explored the world or something?</p>

289

<p>I put constraint because it mentioned fence and wall which symbolizes constraint???</p>

290

<p>@prize but she said that from then on she didn’t like to be inside walls or fences or something like that. That was a really hard question though. The whole CR section was harder than average IMO</p>

291

<p>How many ways to divide 5 identical coins between two people so that each person gets at least one coin?</p>

293

<p>What were the questions for philosophy and artists didn’t care?</p>

294

<p>im pretty sure it’s not contraints.
the whole passage was about she how she was interested exploring for those ritualistic things. And i was pretty sure contraints was overly stated, like she will refuse to follow future constraints. just because she didnt like being inside does not mean she will disobey in the future. i dont know. that’s what i think.</p>

295

<p>What would it be instead of constraints then?</p>

<p>Any other questions?</p>

296

<p>@physics
i put the exploring one.</p>

298

<p>So this is my 2 cents on the complacency/apprehension vs ostentation/humility question:</p>

<p>The word ostentation can be thought of as a ‘vainglorious display’. To be vainglorious could mean to feel that one is the center of attention (in this case, the universe). I think this very precisely describes the sentiments of the public before the reclassification. The word humility certainly fits because the passage describes the sense of insignificance that the reclassification imparts.</p>

299

<p>Ostentatious is too extreme. It means “characterized by vulgar or pretentious display”. The behavior of the public definitely was NOT that extreme. They were, however, complacent, or satisfied with themselves and after discovering that they were so insignificant, they became apprehensive, or understanding.</p>

<p>@noveidea</p>

<p>I don’t think the constraints and philosophy are right.
The professor one doesnt sound like a choice but more what the question was asking.</p>

<p>For that one the two answer choices that could have been it were

  1. He understood his limitations (my choice)
  2. He recognized other subjects or something along those lines were undervalued ( too specific the passage never made that point)</p>
