I went with the scientists one because in passage two it was implied that the wait to discover the truth about the squids is more exciting than the discovery of it (will be). In other words, scientists have not found a living…There is nothing about misleading. In fact, he cites Steinbeck and endorses his argument. Then why would he have a negative opinion about writers? Misleading is an extreme word, and therefore the choice itself was extreme, but it is solely my opinion. In the first passage of the first cr section, was the answer absorbing pastime with observations? I don’t remember the autobiography question you just mentioned. But I remember I chose an answer that such writing distorts the truth about the person’s life or something.

Cut cube question: 24 vertices

I thought the passages were easy in cr, but the sentence completions were hard. I guessed the answers in 5 of the sentence completions and luckily 4 of them were correct. (I checked the meanings of the words after the test.) So I think pulled I it off well :D
