<p>Does anyone remember what the personal anecdote choice, from the critic passage, introduced?</p>
<p>How are you all so certain that penchant…retiring is correct when so many people have diffident, including me? I’ve never missed a SC question before on an SAT and I put diffident. I don’t plan on this being my first.</p>
<p>**How come the answer “reveals her thoughts about the nature of writing” is no longer on the list? **</p>
<p>I think that is what “introduction” is referring to. </p>
<p>**How are you all so certain that penchant…retiring is correct when so many people have diffident, including me? I’ve never missed a SC question before on an SAT and I put diffident. I don’t plan on this being my first. **</p>
<p>retiring…penchant is correct because they connect two opposite things. she was retiring yet she had a penchant for publicity/news or something along those lines.</p>
<p>She was ___ in her private life, but had a ___ controversy. (diffident, aversion towards)</p>
<p>diffident (one definition is reserved) makes sense for the first blank. Aversion towards controversy would go along with her being reserved and uncontroversial in her private life, so the ‘but’ eliminates that choice. /mythinking</p>
<p>Are you sure aversion was the second blank? I remember it coming down to monotonous, retiring, and diffident. I thought for quite some time before making my choice. Anyways, I don’t think I got more than 2 wrong so an 800 CR is in reach even if I missed this one.</p>
<p>52 was like “the cheetah in p1 and the mammoth in p2 are both examples of what?” The answer was “animals that have become extinct” and some other choices were “animals that would react poorly in new environment” “animals to be transplanted” etc</p>
<p>How come the answer “reveals her thoughts about the nature of writing” is no longer on the list? ----- I put this, what is the answer on the list?</p>
<p>lonelywayfarer, look at 43.- the personal anecdote - introduction <— i’m pretty sure, or hope, that is referring to the “reveals her thoughts about the nature of writing” because thats what I put as well</p>
<p>for the trojan war passage, isn’t “unanimous” too extreme to replace “uniform”…? I know it is pretty much established that “unanimous” is the right one, but I thought it was too extreme… Can anyone help me understand why this is correct and what are the other choices? (this would help me remember what I picked…)</p>
