<p>anyone rember any answers from that passage?</p>
<p>here’s what i remember putting:
coney island= friendly neighborhood
narrator admired her brother’s careful traits
uhm…the knish paragraph was showing a neighbor who had prospered
one of the paragraph’s was to show how safe the neighborhood was for the children or something
concession meant discount</p>
<p>that’s all i can remember for now…</p>
<p>I got all the same answers, except I put something about how the children played, not how safe they were, but I bet I’m wrong.</p>
<p>yea, i think i got all the answers lacrimedellaluna got.</p>
<p>so you got the safe thing too?</p>
<p>oh, i also remembered there was something about the writer including something to dispel any misconceptions about coney island.</p>
<p>Yup, I got the same as everything lacrimedellaluna mentioned.</p>
<p>I concur. If only I got to the last passage. Man!</p>
<p>I got all of those answers too. I thought reading was rather easy this time compared to previous tests.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I chose that answer for that question as well.</p>
<p>i put how safe they were, because the author didn’t go into detail about how the played till later in the passage, not specifically those lines. also, safety was mentioned a few times in those lines.</p>
<p>I think I put safety too. and all the answers lacrimedellaluna had.</p>
<p>There was also a question about how the parents were speaking Yiddish to each other and English to the kids, and I was stuck between two answers. I ended up answering something like “They could switch easily back and forth between English/Yiddish” (… or something like that, does anyone remember what that choice said?). I almost wanted to put the one about how they spoke English to their children but hoped the children would learn Yiddish, but it never said anything about that in the passage, so I didn’t know.</p>
<p>I put that they spoke both.</p>
<p>Yeah, I think that’s what the answer was, something about them being able to speak both and switch between them.</p>
<p>haha i was about to freak out thinking i had missed another one…woohoo!</p>
<p>Yeah, they were comfortable speaking both languages (They sometimes English to the kids but sometimes spoke Yiddish; the other choices were simply incorrect).</p>
