<p>what was the riveting an answer to?</p>
<p>Guys, I got a writing experimental section
Sec.4 was something that had a question about pandas and pressure of her constituents
Sec. 5 was a bit more easier but I don’t remember</p>
<p>One of them(I think 4) had a 5 question passage about why can’t taste be art</p>
<p>Which was experimental?</p>
<p>yeah i didn’t get riveting…</p>
<p>It might’ve been in an experimental section, but does anyone remember a question that was like “my friends and I visited some place and saw some guys picture that was like looking out a window” or something like that. If you do let me know what you put for it I read this Q over and over. Got nada.</p>
<p>Yeah I don’t remember that question must’ve been experimental but I had reading as experimental so idk what’s up, maybe they have different experimentals for the same subject</p>

<p>These are the ones I remember.
I’ve checked these, and I’m fairly confident in these answers. I’ve left out the ones that I can’t clearly recall. </p>
<p>(My background: I got an 800 on the SAT CR section last October and an 80 on the CR section on the PSAT. If you would like me to justify these answers, I can.)</p>
<p>I know I’m wrong, but I don’t understand exactly why. I couldn’t find something that supported rich = wealthy so I changed my answer at the last second. -.-</p>
<p>I do have a few questions about math, which is not my strong point.</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Could somebody be so kind to explain the double circle question with the shaded polygon in the center? (The given radius was 6.)</p></li>
<li><p>The quadratic equation was confusing, too.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Since all the sides of the polygon in the center were equal, you know that it is composed of two equilateral triangles. That means the angle of the arc is 60 + 60 = 120 degrees. This is one-third of a circle. Since there were two circles, you subtract the arc length of two-thirds of a circle from the total circumference of the two circles. You should get 16 pi as the answer.</p>
<p>I don’t understand what you mean by the quadratic question…</p>
<p>meh, ill take you up on the eagerness one. what makes you think it suggested ambivalence? The tone was pretty straightforward, and she consistently referenced her anticipation for the moment. it’s not like she was partially scared of sea horses or something.</p>
<p>-I agree with everything else though.
anyone find any of these passages?</p>
<p>Wait so the answer was intransigent, not tractable? Ahhhh i put tractable!!! :(</p>
<p>I chose determination for that one, which I know is completely wrong. XD</p>
<p>“Tractable” means easy to control. “Intransigent” means unwilling to change.</p>
<p>@cosmogony Thanks. By the quadratic equation, I mean the one with the graph and the vertex at (-2, -1). The equation was… ax^2 + bx + c. I had it narrowed down to a=1 and a > 1.</p>
<p>@2redpartyhats: If you noticed in the passage, the girl asked an uncertain question. “Perhaps I will find one this time?” People who are eager would not ask this as a question. They might say something like, “I can’t wait to find a seahorse!” or “I was ready to go find a seahorse”, or “I hope this time I will find one.”</p>
<p>Ambivalent means having mixed feelings or contradictory ideas about something or someone. She might have been slightly nervous about finding a seahorse; thus, she asked a question that indicated her mixed feelings.</p>
<p>@catchtwentythree, what did you put for one of the other questions on the short passage about actors? Was it limiting, or problematic? I put limiting…</p>
<p>Also, I’m pretty sure it wasn’t ambivalent, yo.</p>
<p>BTW, I agree with all of glasses1’s answers on critical reading so far.</p>
<p>hey…does space matter a lot in the essay? i felt i wrote it pretty decently but i left a few lines at the end a line between paragraphs…</p>
