<p>hey pgtori guess what? 36 on act 80 on psat c-reading----d-bag</p>
<p>I’m going to just go with the industry/genius thing as something we have to disagree to disagree. As in we’ll never reach a consensus. Both groups seem to think their answer right and obvious.</p>
<p>Yeah, I got a 800 CR too, but that doesn’t really mean anything. It was a combination of luck + easier June CR section for me…</p>
<p>So, basically, just because one gets a 800/high 700s doesn’t mean that his/her reasoning is infallible…</p>
<p>Anyway, I’m watching “30 Rock” right now… Such a good show :)</p>
<p>come on guys no need to insult each other…</p>
<p>vote?
genius-1
industry-0</p>
<p>akitorin i completely agree</p>
<p>I do not understand at all how the question with the answer “simple/debatable”
is correct. I know I got another answer, but the passage stated that college teachers taught the painting a certain way, so how did they say it was debatable?</p>
<p>industry </p>
<p>1st passage: books on shelves, people coming to his hometown<br>
2nd passage: explicitly mentioned industry </p>
<p>neither passage said anything about being a genius… the passages weren’t even talking about Shakespeares work but the influence he has on people… how does having a strong influence make him a genius?</p>
<p>okay, somehow no one is discussing the passage with Louisa may Alcott,and her novels, is this experimental?!! i did okay on this but w/e</p>
<p>i also put industry, i can’t see the logic behind genius because passage 2 does not support this at all</p>
<p>also, does anyone remember what the function of those 2 sentences were in the boston car passage?</p>
<p>chronic: if i remember correctly when the author described the way that college teachers teach it he also followed it up with a rhetorical question that questioned the logic behind this view of the painting</p>
<p>the college teachers view was simple</p>
<p>and the author saw their view as debatable</p>
<p>feel free to correct my memory</p>
<p>passage 2 said that he was an commerical genius or something…</p>
<p>passage 2 def. mentioned shakespeare as a genius.</p>
<p>Can anyone confirm that the CR section with the Socialist guy was experimental?</p>
<p>Daman, I see what your reasoning is, but I thought the question asked what the teachers thought of the painting. That’s why I thought it wasn’t debatable to them, but I could easily be wrong.</p>
<p>Yeah, the author basically stated how the professors taught that the painter’s purpose was to show how “Perception isn’t reality” or something… And the author finds that view rather “simple” and that their (the professors’) conclusion was debatable because he (the author) personally believed that the painter’s purpose went much deeper than that. The author later goes on and substantiates his claim.</p>
<p>Basically, I agree with daman11</p>
<p>we need to summarize all the answers</p>
<p>That’s a big task, that was called for before and no one seems to want to do it.
Except for vocab. You could add it onto the vocab list if you want.</p>
<p>was one of the answers belligerent? sorry, i would just look for it but there’s 32 pages
haha</p>
<p>I don’t think belligerent was an answer.
If it is a vocab question there is a list that should be easily spottable in the 32 pages.</p>
<p>was belligerent an answer</p>
<p>no percipately, belligerent means warlike</p>
