<p>and about the disturbed thing.i think it is disrupt becuz troubled is the same with buffled which was also an anwer choice.</p>
<p>no,the consensus is troubled, not disrupted.</p>
<p>yeah, I think baffled is correct though not sure.</p>
<p>Regarding the chinese girl question (i believe it was asking what the introduction of her changing was), it wasn’t an analogy because analogy means:</p>
<p>2 a: resemblance in some particulars between things otherwise unlike : similarity b: comparison based on such resemblance</p>
<p>the focus wasn’t on the resemblance in lifestyles, rather it was to show the distinct differences, therefore the answer was like paradox or something</p>
<p>I don’t agree with the consensus. I believe the passage was talking about the impact of automobiles and all the places that have to be created to house them, etc, and I feel strongly that the answer was “disrupted.” </p>
<p>“i thought the passage EXPLICITLY stated that what both had in common was that one tried to mimick the crafting of jewels for the rich?”
As to this one, sorry Foo, I underlined in the pasage where it said that in medieval times, they were able to craft custom jewels even for the common man.</p>
<p>And I don’t believe that “regression” is implicitly negative; it just states a direction of thought. So I chose a regression to medieval ways, which sums up the ideals perfectly. </p>
<p>I guess we’ll all know eventually, lol!!</p>

<p>In the first passage, The author says that when a book is not published then that is a problem. This implys that work on shakespear is evident. From this they authors are hinting that there is a bussiness built around Shakespear. So its thriving industry</p>
<p>I agree with joeyharvey… it must be distrupted</p>
<p>i agree with troubled…thats what i put</p>
<p>Joeyharvey: I remember the sentence was something along the lines of “any city lover is ____ by the state of automobiles.” The thing about the SAT is that you must take every word literally, and the dictionary definition of disturbed is “showing symptoms of emotional illness.” If you loved an animal, and you saw its habitat being destroyed, you would be troubled(worried) but not disturbed!(emotionally sick?) That may be a bad comparison but I’m just trying to get my point across.</p>
<p>I too agree with this: “i thought the passage EXPLICITLY stated that what both had in common was that one tried to mimick the crafting of jewels for the rich?” The thing about the SAT again, is that it is strict. The passage was terrible because you were never sure which movement you were reading about, but I remember that that if you remembered that the Q’s were in chronological order, then the question was specifically answered in the way that the above quote was described. Once again, SAT is LITERAL! Nowhere did it mention price or affordability, that is a HUGE assumption. Nowhere did it say the common man could not afford it, but it EXPLICITY stated that they wanted to resemble those made for the wealthy!</p>
<p>I agree with you on the midieval regression, however. Regression does not have to be a negative, it just means reverting to a “lower” or previous state, which means doing things that you used to do. They were referencing the relationships between artists and customers, and wanted that relationship back!</p>
