I put judgemental and snide. My reasoning was that she looked down on the tenants and didn't want to be insulted by getting confused with one of them.

More questions from this passage; it was kind of hard.

Was that sentence foreshadowing future events?

I put proud and aloof because she never really talked or interacted with anyone she saw, and she acted proud when trying to avoid being a lowly tenant.

I don't think the sentence was foreshadowing, since it was referring to past events, not future ones that are going to happen. I maybe wrong though. I put represented a great misfortune or something because she was at a graveyard...but I don't know 100%

I'm trying to avoid participating in specific question discussions until much later, but I must say, having taken a version without experimental CR (I had exp Writing), I found it to be fairly easy compared to November's. Anyone else have this experience?

For Ms. Alexander, I had something about Arrogant and something else, anyone else? Also, what did it mean when it talked about how she "fairly drank her in with her mind"? or something like that. 2 answer choices were that "she like her style" and that she "preferred to avoid her" or something like that.

NOOOO I had that but changed it because I didn't understand why she would care at all about style.
