2011 January SAT: Critical Reading

<p>^^^^like^^^^</p>

<p>i said satisfied as well. the previous paragraph talked about her being conscientious. the line reference supported self satisfied.</p>

<p>Its definitely conversational for the Paige’s autobiography</p>

<p>How would it be scholarly… He wasn’t using big words or being sophisticated</p>

<p>i too put self satisfied…however, I completely forget why :b … was it me or were some of the CR ambiguous?</p>

<p>"Its definitely conversational for the Paige’s autobiography "</p>

<p>Why???</p>

<p>I haven’t taken too many practice tests but I felt many of the questions were indeed ambiguous… similar to the AP Lang passage type questions…
Did you choose her desire for others to read her work for the parenthetical one?</p>

<p>what were the other choices for the controversial one?</p>

<p>^No its to tailor her work for others</p>

<p>what were the other choices for the controversial one? </p>

<p>hmm all i remember:
scholarly
ambivalent
controversial</p>

<p>the fact that the grandma considered writing as art explains why she wanted a nice signature?</p>

<p>violin,
i could have sworn it was controversial and not conversational</p>

<p>but i might be wrong. idk</p>

<p>about the anomalous/mercurial…i googled anomalous cosmic rays and things actually came up…nothing for mercurial cosmic rays, though</p>

<p>what was Pallatial and modern explanations?</p>

<p>clearly everyone seems to recall conversational so they’re probably right</p>

<p>Was it not exceedingly comlplicated?</p>

<p>i put anomalous aka NOT normal, mercurial is like changeable</p>

<p>so do you guys know which section was experimental?</p>

<p>it was anomalous</p>

<p>also, I got the performed/directed question wrong. what an ambiguous question. you can perform and direct an evaluation or whatever it was. I guess direct works a little better…</p>

<p>I personally don’t think it was to protect cherished beliefs. They were altering their memories to support their fatalistic world view.</p>

<p>is it really modern research?</p>

<p>Or is it irreverent to the theory?</p>
