November 2008 SAT Critical Reading

<p>What about that OIL QUESTION???</p>

<p>Comparing it to medicine</p>

<p>isleep - What oil question? I don’t remember an oil question.</p>

<p>the UNTOLD = “numerous and unrecorded”</p>

<p>I don’t remember any oil question… Experimental, perhaps?</p>

<p>and once again substance wasnt reality it was meaningfulness or usefulness…cant remember which but one of those was the correct choice</p>

<p>I think Mrs. Verma and the guy were cousins because the bubble mentions Balodram(sp) being the guy’s uncle, the letter refers to Balodram and the guy kept on referring to Mrs. Verma’s father.</p>

<p>Substance was reality, I’m quite sure.</p>

<p>Mrs. Verma’s father’s name was stated in a note written to him from Alu’s uncle. They are different people.</p>

<p>I put “usefulness” for substance, but I’m not so sure anymore. It made sense at the time.</p>

<p>People are saying she wanted confirmation of the elephant’s existence, but I took it as more of, she wanted to see how the elephant lived/spend it’s time, thus she found the painting and realized that was the purpose/usefulness of his existence.</p>

<p>Still, I may well be wrong on this.</p>

<p>The oil question was comparing it medicine. How its usefull or something?</p>

<p>I’m 99.9999% sure that the answer was reality for the substance question.</p>

<p>They weren’t cousins…</p>

<p>Alu (nephew of) Baloram (college friend of) Mrs.'s Father (father of) Mrs. Verma</p>

<p>Thus, the link is their guardian’s friendship, and I’m just about 100% certain.</p>

<p>the tracker was looking for some sort of “substance”…or usefulness…the motive of the tracking was to find out something new and meaningful in the elephants natural habitat, the substance was that which was useful…and im 100000000000% sure that the bosa’s uncle writes a note to HIS FRIEND WHICH IS mrs. varma’s dad = THEY WERE RAISED BY PEOPLE WHO WERE FRIENDS WITH ONE ANOTHER</p>

<p>^Now that I think about it, I’m probably wrong.</p>

<p>For the poetry’s main audience question (poetry passage) I put archetypical and not principal. </p>

<p>Principal means the most important, and the audience was not the most important, just the typical audience.</p>

<p>hope we finally agree… twice ! :)</p>

<p>was “humble/unassuming” part of the same question as “numerous and unrecorded”</p>

<p>i think it was something/uninformed…which was wrong</p>

<p>whale, principal also means ‘main’, so that’s what I put.</p>

<p>^agree with butternut</p>

<p>its principal. im lookin at -6 vocab(contemplating suicide) - 1 (rest of CR) whats that out of 800 with generous curve, mad idiots took november test -7 to -9 overall ( if i missed something)…what will that get me</p>

<p>and -6 vocab may be -4 or -5 , probably not tho</p>
