<p>for the journalists one
the answer was about harming the political system</p>
<p>emphatic-3, balanced-2</p>
<p>@diboy, yes, can you recall the actual answer choice with “journalists”?</p>
<p>what were the other answer choices for
Film and art both have the ____ to ____ the human eye that the 2-dimensional surface has depth.<br>
this question?</p>
<p>In passage 1, it was talking about something negatively impacting the democracy. </p>
<p>So i put something similar on the question. (I recall that my answer had “political system” in it). I think journalist was one of the answer choices.</p>
<p>thanks so much duckblase? </p>
<p>for the movie critic passage,
what were the other choices for the question that asked “the purpose of the personal anecdote in lines__ was to” and what was the right answer i thought the answer was to introduce her opinion about writing or something</p>
<p>can anyone verify this?</p>
<p>for the rewilding passage,
-Passage 1 would think the last part of Passage 2 (the suggestions about what to
do with the money) was inadequate. author of passage 1 disagrees with the solutions offered by passage 2’s author. passage 1 believes in rewilding, whereas passsage 2 believes its efforts should be spent elsewhere
what were the other choices for this question?</p>
<p>-Last part of passage 2 - suggesting alternatives. other choices?</p>
<p>-both authors took positions on a possible plan of action author 1 focused on rewilding, author 2 was the opposite and also proposed alternative solutions
other choices?</p>
<p>film and art both "face " the challenge of being “believable” to the blah blah.</p>
<p>Not exactly stated, but “face” was in the right pair of choices.
The other word was something similar to “believable”.</p>
<p>You have also discovered one of the missing questions on the consilidated list shami1.</p>
<p>yep its “face” the challenge of “persuading”</p>
<p>My thoughts:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Passage 1 is more balanced than Passage 2. The reason is because it only argues 1 point throughout. Passage 2 goes back and forth saying why is good or bad. Also, one can argue that Passage 2 was empathetic to both sides.</p></li>
<li><p>clear thoughts more important than prose or something like that. The passage was referring to arguments not opinions which choice a was saying.</p></li>
<li><p>Trojan War probably did NOT occur because the only evidence we have is from literature(Choice 1). No Documents have been discovered at all sounds too extreme. Also the author keeps mentioning that T. kept on getting his inspiration from Homer’s works and the beginning paragraph is talking about how funny it is that so many people believe in something that has not much data EXCEPT that from Homer.</p></li>
<li><p>Inevitable. Undesirable is too opininated and the passage seems to talk about the cold hard facts than how they feel.</p></li>
<li><p>Kael’s work was never viewed objectively not disagreement. The author mentions something about how critics agreed that she had an interesting way of writing. Objectively really stuck out to me because the author kept on saying how writing meant something to Kael more than the person reading it or something like that.</p></li>
<li><p>Virtually no one instead of Discerning Movie Goers. I’ll admit, I was hesitant on this one. I think the tone at which it was said really answers this question.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>I could be wrong but this is how I processed the information :)</p>
<p>Does anyone else feel like a lot of the questions on the sat cr seemed opinion based rather than fact based?</p>
<p>There was a question on the Trojan war passage that asked where someone had most of his facts from…was it Homer’s poetry or archaeology?</p>
<p>I also thought it was “face” choice instead of the “persuade” choice.</p>
<p>Take from this what you will, but I talked to a history teacher at my school today about the Troy passage, and he said that Thucydides was one of the first historians to base his work largely on observation rather than oral accounts, so that would lead me to believe that his work was based on archeological finds rather than Homer, however he didn’t see the passage so I’m not 100% sure, I just thought I’d bring that up.</p>
<p>^isn’t today columbus day? lol you shouldn’t have had school today lol</p>
<p>Yea I think “face…persuade” is right instead of whatever i put on the list. I was thinking of the same thing, but didn’t remember the exact answer.</p>
<p>@papapia, apparently in Miami Columbus day isn’t a real holiday, I was livid when I moved here and found out haha.</p>
<p>I put archaeological findings instead of Homer, and I put virtually no one instead of discerning moviegoers, and I put inevitable rather than undesirable.</p>
<p>For the “virtually no one,” there was some unique tone going on. It definitely wasn’t just a straightforward quote. I think discerning moviegoers didn’t fit.</p>
<p>I put:
-archaeological, rather than Homer
-inevitable, rather than undesirable
-I’m pretty sure I put virtually no one for the movie critic passage, I can’t completely remember this one for some reason</p>
<p>Voting for balanced.</p>
<p>3-Emphatic; 3-Balanced</p>
