<p>right but it she still carried the book with her as we know from the stains and such meaning years</p>
<p>There was one that was like “what did DETACHED mean?” </p>
<p>A. Set Apart
B. Broken Apart</p>
<p>…and I had no clue. I said set. What did yall say?</p>
<p>A. was the answer.
B. was like the farthest thing from the right answer, lol.</p>
<p>does anyone remember the answer to the last question on the science test??</p>
<p>i put F</p>
<p>Twaan, I said F too, I think. What was the question?</p>
<p>i said years because she said the next summer
and i would think if you were talking to someone and you said, “the next summer i…” would imply it was over the course of a year or two</p>
<p>I would agree if it were just years. However, the question stated the period was several ________.</p>
<p>Several months makes much more sense for “next summer” than several years. Especially sense the definition of several usually applies to more than three years.</p>
<p>Look it up.</p>
<p>Merriam Webster Definition: 2 b: more than two but fewer than many <moved several=“” inches=“”> </moved></p>
<p>Thus, everybody who put months would be asserting that it took three YEARS for either summer to come or for her to become familiar with the guide.</p>
<p>No, it’s in the passage.</p>
<p>She said “over the next few years”. She learned over the next summer but the book stayed with her the next few years. </p>
<p>Verbatim.</p>
<p>Wow, 'm not even going to try to argue anymore. Anybody who put years didn’t read the question (it wanted a specific time frame), or they did not understand the definition of the word several.</p>
<p>Either way you are incorrect and if you want to see why you are wrong look at any of my past posts.</p>
<p>The question and the text were word-for-word with Years. You’ll see when the score comes in, Dabigdawg LOL.</p>
<p>Exactly! It said “over the next several years” it became her guidebook and it got really damaged.</p>
<p>I thought the question was asking how long it took for her and the book to become companions. One of those re-wording questions where the answer is right in the passage but worded a little differently. It really was verbatim, you don’t have to think deeply about it.</p>
<p>Also dabigdawg, do YOU know what the question stated exactly, word for word? Because you asked everybody on her if we knew but you never actually said what the question was. Except for your interpretation of its meaning.</p>
<p>A specific time frame…well wouldn’t you think SEVERAL YEARS is a specific time frame? It was in the 2nd paragraph of the passage! Plus I honestly don’t remember seeing the “she became familiar with it by the next summer” but I don’t doubt that it’s there. But I think I would have looked for this quote if the question were asking about it…</p>
<p>Does anyone remember one in the snowflake passage, about what the metamorphosed conditions meant? I was trying to decide between A (the conditions under which the snowflakes are formed) and C (they change once they hit the ground)</p>
<p>This was the only question I was really unsure about. What did everyone else put?</p>
<p>I remember the question.</p>
<p>"How long did it take for the woman to make a true companionship with her book?</p>
<p>And then sort of at the beginning of the passage thang, it said, gawd, SEVERAL YEARS. The people who insist it’s months are thinking too hard and aimlessly fighting.</p>
<p>And later on in the passage she was mad because looking up the flowers was such a pain, so she clearly wasn’t familiar. YEARS.</p>
<p>IT WAS WORD FOR WORD.</p>
<p>optical illusion: I put A (:</p>
<p>Oh ShampooSwallower, thank you!! That question sounds familiar now (and I’m NOT just saying this because I put years.)</p>
<p>I put A too. The conditions under which they are formed</p>
<p>the passage said something about the snowflakes changing once they hit the ground</p>
<p>Metamorphosed was the snowflakes changing once they hit the ground.</p>
