October 4 SAT Critical Reading

<p>are you guys sure the insect one was registering and environment? i heard it was observing population.</p>

<p>^ I got that answer too…</p>

<p>hey can someone explain to me the monkey one and how it was truce??</p>

<p>im not arguing my answer of coincidence, but i want to know why it was truce instead.
I missed 3 sentence completions, and they weren’t even hard words. I just didnt understand the sentences i guess and its ****ing me off.
If i miss words like truce, register, etc. i know its not a vocab issue</p>

<p>it was truce because creating truces is a behavior which humans exhibit and the in the sentence the researcher is criticized for humanizing the monkeys</p>

<p>Agreed with daman. Truce is the only choice that can be related to human behavior.</p>

<p>i either guessed and got that wrong or skipped it. i definitely didn’t put truce…</p>

<p>Yes, I got ‘truce’ as well…</p>

<p>and how can insects ‘observe’ their environment?
so I put register as well</p>

<p>yeah i put register but that question bugged me all the way through that section</p>

<p>for the women and the vote passage was the answer wives not voting independently of their husbands or women having the same beliefs as men?</p>

<p>not voting independently.</p>

<p>Its debatable.</p>

<p>jln, I put voting independently of their husbands,
but it could go either way, I was confused about that one too
i wouldn’t be surprised if it was believing the same thing as their husbands</p>

<p>it was the voting independently of their husbands one becuase the author alludes to that in the paragraph and also because the other option compared women to men, not husbands to wife
a majority of the passage was devoted to husband v. wife</p>

<p>For the women’s suffrage passage, I think some of you forget the actual question. </p>

<p>It was this: What was the logic of the men who were opposed to women suffrage? </p>

<p>That Women SHARED the same views as their husbands
or
Women would not vote INDEPENDENTLY of their husbands. </p>

<p>Was there any evidence AT ALL in the passage that suggests these men believed that ALL women had the EXACT SAME views as their husbands. Of course not, that would be preposterous.</p>

<p>maybe its been discussed already but im too lazy to go through 50 pages
does anyone remember the pipe/painting question “this is true but trivial”</p>

<p>^ I remember the question, but I’m pretty sure I didn’t get it right</p>

<p>^ The argument wasn’t that they wouldn’t vote. Just that they would vote for the same candidate as their husbands.</p>

<p>o wow jjjj1234 i thought i wasnt arguing with you haha. apparently we’re on the same page</p>

<p>the answer was that the painting was not the actual object itself</p>

<p>^
JJJ, I was referring to the abstract pipe one,
“true but trivial”</p>
