November 2008 SAT Critical Reading

<p>HEY GUYS. it’s not noted/discrimination. </p>

<p>discrimination is not the act of being able to distinguish two bodies.</p>

<p>it’s unfair treatment of someone.</p>

<p>not sure about antithetical. i definitely put parallel/disparity and i’m 99% sure its right</p>

<p>it was parallel/disparity. the “disparity” referred to their economic statuses, and “parallel” referred to the histories of the lives…something about how there were many ups and downs in their live.s</p>

<p>parallel/disparity –> quite sure (they had similar storylines despite economic disparity)
noted/discrimination –> it was definitely discrimination (the ability to discriminate was triggered by “nuance”)</p>

<p>Taken from dicitionary.com…</p>

<ol>
<li> an act or instance of discriminating.</li>
<li> treatment or consideration of, or making a distinction in favor of or against, a person or thing based on the group, class, or category to which that person or thing belongs rather than on individual merit: racial and religious intolerance and discrimination.</li>
</ol>

<p>^discrimination:marked by the ability to see or make fine distinctions; “discriminate judgments”; “discriminate people”
found on google.</p>

<p>1450 AD–>to show how old mortal and pestle were or to show that time doesn’t exist in nature?</p>

<p>oops. forgot to include the third definition</p>

<ol>
<li> the power of making fine distinctions; discriminating judgment: She chose the colors with great discrimination.</li>
</ol>

<p>mhh- i have no idea. that one got me.</p>

<p>what was the answer to the question on the uncle’s book passage that asked about the passage in general…did it describe two characters past experiences??</p>

<p>what was the sentence for nuance/complex…i don’t remember those answer choices at all.</p>

<p>what was this ‘unique,’ and ‘archetypal’ question everyone’s talking about…that sounds vaguely familiar but i’m not sure…also, what was the solicitous one?</p>

<p>i put that, ace</p>

<p>hey, did you guys get mutual friend for the question about the what the words on the title page mean?</p>

<p>the unique/archetypal question had something to do with constant change. and one year (?) something changed…it would be foolish to consider this year ____" idk. something along those lines</p>

<p>is there a chatroom for this? anyone care to provide a link?</p>

<p>so…1450 ad? what did you guys put for that?</p>

<p>wasn’t nuance and complex an answer for the elephant passage?</p>

<p>shoot. i think it IS discrimination now…</p>

<p>but ugh. when you think discrimination you think of people hating one another…</p>

<ol>
