<p>Do any of you guys remember the answer choices for the florid SC question?
I can’t remember if I put florid or not…</p>
<p>Or do you at least remember the actual sentance?</p>
<p>did we ever resolve the EACH and EVERY dispute?</p>
<p>pervasive phenomena?</p>
<p>can someone get a consolidated list of answered? (even if some are controversial?)</p>
<p>I think it was pervasive phenomena because none of the others fit. And for florid, it was something about how Hemmingway’s writing was spare and direct, not ( ). And then you filled in florid because it was the opposite of the description. Some other choices I think I remember are succinct, distinct, and I don’t remember the other two.</p>
<p>Creepydan75, i think lucid was a choice.</p>
<p>The fact that Twain’s quote did not reflect the actual situation is actually more against observation, rather than explanation. Explanation can be implied by the opposition, whereas observations generally are not. Like I said, the key I saw was the next sentence “People must not adore me”. </p>
<p>I put redundancy over pervasive, but after some considerations, this is one of the question I’m not too sure about. I’m thinking I might be wrong after I looked up the particular definitions of pervasive and phenomena. </p>
<p>Lucid was a choice… but really it was the “anti-choice”.</p>
<p>What question is pervasive an answer for?</p>
<p>Yeah, at the time, I wasn’t even sure exactly what pervasive meant, just that none of the other four choices worked. When I looked up the definition, I was positive about my answer.</p>
<p>lucid? Hmmmm I think that’s what I put.
Haha this sucks. I was aiming for a 750 in CR but with 4 wrong already I think I’m doomed :(</p>
<p>^It was the question about why each and every were italicized.</p>
<p>What were some other answers for “pervasive phenomena”?</p>
<p>Another answer was either just redundancy or redundancy for emphasis.</p>
<p>Okay, I know I didn’t pick that one. What were some others? I’m trying to recall what I could have picked.</p>
<p>I know other what the emphasize the incorrectness or something along those lines.</p>
<p>^ it was pervasive phenomenon, think about it…“each and EVERY”<- even THOSE pervasive words are somewhat similar but have extremely different meanings.</p>
<p>Yeah, the phenomena was how each and every word used in writing holds very different meaning and can change the way the writing as a whole is perceived by the readers.</p>
<p>what were all the options though? redundancy, pervasive phenomenon, and what else?</p>

<p>bob dylan - was qualifiers another answer for that one or was qualifiers an answer for a different question??</p>
<p>some things i’m not sure about:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>in the old china being valued later passage, i kind of remember picking both that the people later appreciate it because they’re unaccustomed to it AND i remember picking the passage of time is what makes them valuable … were these 2 different questions or am i remembering wrong?</p></li>
<li><p>for the big leaves passage, did we agree already that the answer was destroy natural habitats?</p></li>
<li><p>did we discuss for the children & media passage the question that i put draw attention for?i think the question was one of those like what was the main purpose of the passage? i think the answer i put was something like draw attention to the bad things about the media</p></li>
<li><p>did we talk about this question in the children & media passage? - how author’s view differed from the one mentioned in passage … i put they disagree and i remember there were 2 answers that had disagree in it, but i don’t remember what they said. i would know which one i picked if somebody remembers the choicess</p></li>
