<p>It was scholarly enthusiasm because he was “fascinated by the new ideas” (paraphrase) about the research.</p>
<p>^Yes but he’s Optimistic, and almost naive, that there’s a different reason behind it. You could also make a convincing case for scholarly enthusiasm. That was a tricky question</p>
<p>Optimism has a more hopeful connotation like he wants to believe that his work contributed to the dinomania. Scholarly enthusiasm is more like he talks about his subject with a lot of knowledge and enjoys it, but I think his main purpose in writing all of that information was to show the contrast in how people viewed dinosaurs before and after his discoveries and how it contributed to dinomania? I don’t know anymore haha.</p>
<p>@StudiousMaximus - exactly what I was thinking</p>
<p>He wasn’t optimistic, though. His whole argument was that research wasn’t responsible for the rise in popularity of the dinosaur (or of the yo-yo). He viewed the research itself (what the question asked) with scholarly enthusiasm.</p>
<p>EDIT: And he wasn’t cheerful; he was enthusiastic.</p>
<p>That’s a great point. I’m just an idiot for forgetting what I put aha. I think he wanted to be optimistic, but it came off as enthusiastic?</p>
<p>how about passage about creative writing?</p>
<ol>
<li>useful not necessary
2 I dont remember…</li>
</ol>
<p>imperative ? was it right answer for woman’s suffrage ?</p>
<p>@anysky I put imperative…and the other question for creative writing I believe was learning to write predates classes, or something like that</p>
<p>can anyone explain what the answer was to the apes passage asking how the author of passage two differed from the author of passage one</p>
<p>the diff. was that author two directly said her opinion on other scientist’s motives</p>
<p>hey what did you guys put for that one writing question comparing the number of tourists who visit a country each year to the number that visits a different country each year?</p>
<p>afterparty be more detailed plzz</p>
<p>What are certain as right answers:</p>
<p>erudite
autonomous
scholarly enthusiasm
secret heart=undisclosed
father was appreciative but ambivalent
148 was to validate a statement
scientific implication
mired=stuck
superfluous
both used behavioral science
teacher eccentricity
father kept asking = uniqueness
sieve = things he didn’t mind sharing
quality control = his ability to restrain himself from sharing
boom of yo-yo’s = commercialization
letters between = most disprove
the “assumptions” = not yet disproven
wife was teasing
defies
phlegmatic
indefagitable
polymath
the author acknolweged his position
disproportionate
alternative explanation
present tense = mark a contrast
the groundbreakign research = investigate Homer’s language
inhibit and skew
learning to write predated classes
mollifying
scientific implication
accessible
monkey can’t say “in”
insufficient skepticism
women’s suffrage = imperative
unflattering
passage was self-reflection
Homer wanted to make it flow
dino-man was belittled by his classmates</p>
<p>So far, 2 wrong. Please feel free to add to the list.</p>
<p>he wasnt optimistic. that would imply he’s looking forward to something, but he knew that their research wasnt the cause of dinomania. he was just being enthusiastic, by saying oh i’d like to believe it’s because of our research and … ideas</p>
<p>In the dinomania passage, one of the questions said the author said “I would love to…” because ???</p>
<p>Some of the choices was like because the author was proud of his finding/research? And another one was something like because it wasn’t his research (dino presented differently) that affected its current popularity</p>
<p>goodjobbro- do you remember the question for disproportionate? and was the phrase about kanzi asking what he COULD do, or couldn’t? i put a different answer like “make snake bite liz” cuz i thought the question was asking what would most exemplify what he could do, and so i put that cuz it had a demand, order, and action or something haha</p>
<p>@pzowie</p>
<p>Disproportionate was the author’s success or something like that</p>
<p>=/ It mentioned what he couldn’t do.</p>
<p>Was the writing experimental the one that had
“invented”
Engine
And the woman that was a better writer than the guy?
Also, I remember a sentence error that had tendentiousne, was that one also experimental?
I think these questions were all from section 3</p>
<p>it was something like "more tourists visit (country) each year (underlined: than) (another country).
sorry i don’t remember which countries lol
anyway, was the comparative phrase supposed to be
than do
than does
as opposed to
…more choices i can’t quite remember ahh
does anyone remember this question?</p>
<p>what was the one with insufficient evidence and inhibit/skew.</p>
