<p>YES I HAVE THE 1000th reply, i think?</p>
<p>uh, why dont i remember that one?</p>
<p>probably because the answer wasn’t hardworking. It was like…the 3rd or 4th question from that passage. What can we infer about the parents from reading the first paragraph, or something close to that.</p>
<p>I think isolation may have been the answer… maybe</p>
<p>Well, the question about the first paragraph, I chose routine/daily lives.</p>
<p>For how the mother felt, I put down isolation too.</p>
<p>Yeah that’s right. The first para was all about how they did the same crap all the time and then the rest was basically how the mother felt really out of place in Irvine.</p>
<p>I’m not sure about Art passage. I didn’t have time to check it.</p>
<p>I disagree about the nuance one. I think the answer was denotation. Sure denotation means “meaning”, but it also means something that hints or reveals a trait about someone or something. Look at what Marriam-Webster has to say:</p>
<p>Denotation: 1: an act or process of denoting</p>
<p>And denoting redirects to:
Denote:
1: to serve as an indication of : betoken <the swollen=“” bellies=“” that=“” denote=“” starvation=“”>
2: to serve as an arbitrary mark for <red flares=“” denoting=“” danger=“”>
3: to make known : announce <his crestfallen=“” look=“” denoted=“” his=“” distress=“”></his></red></the></p>
<p>So I don’t care what everyone says, if the CollegeBoard marks that one incorrect (I have QAS), I’m gonna sue them!!!</p>
<p>i dont know the nuance question,but does anyone remember seeing ‘denotation’ in one of the last sc’s …??
i saw the word " meaning", and im pretty darn sure its “denotation” too…
maybe denotation was an exp section??</p>
<p>yeah but nuance :
1 : a subtle distinction or variation<br>
2 : a subtle quality : nicety<br>
3 : sensibility to, awareness of, or ability to express delicate shadings (as of meaning, feeling, or value)</p>
<p>I know the shakespeare question has been discussed a million times but I agree with ZorroX99. Don’t know why people consider ogenius and industry the only possible correct answers. </p>
<p>“genius of THE HIGHEST DEGREE” is too extreme. passage 2 basically says
Shakespeares’s genius is probably made up/ exaggerated by industry. The last sentence of passage 2: “It is even rumored that Shakespeare wrote plays”. This one is definitely wrong.</p>
<p>Industry is wrong I think because little is mentioned about industry in passage 1</p>
<h2>The most likely answer to me is “little is known about about Shakespeare”. This was very clear in passage 1. In passage 2 the author implies nobody knows for sure if Shakespeare REALLY did everything that the public claims he did (“It is even rumored that he wrote plays”).</h2>
<h2>Does anyone remember the question with “disdain” and “shame” as answer choices? what was the question and 5 answer choices?</h2>
<h2>Also what was the exact question about women vote? was (A) something like women share the same views with their husbands on most matters? Was the phrase “on most matters” there? I put A and if yes I think I may have gotten it wrong.</h2>
<p>So which passage was experimental? Anyone have one about a feminist writer (Alcott, not sure) ?</p>
<p>I recall a question with “competition” as an answer choice. What was the correct answer?</p>
<p>Nowhere in the sentence did it say the performer was subtle or expressed “delicate” shades.
All it said was that her performance reflected some of her qualities. Not SUBTLE qualities, JUST qualities. So denotation cannot be incorrect.</p>
<p>Stop opposing me dammit! BACK ME UP! We can win this!</p>
<p>well,batdoi, that one’s answer is truce. I chose competition too. unlucklily ,we are both wrong</p>

<p>wait for the suffrage one I thought the answer was something along the lines of</p>
<p>“women will not vote independently from their husbands”</p>
<p>The passage specifically says " people scoffed women will vote with their husbands" and I didn’t feel as if this was a use of figurative language.</p>
<p>mixed up senses? which one was that?</p>
<p>and it should be ‘women will not vote independently of their husbands’ cos the question asked about the assumption of the people. This has been discussed a lot by now.</p>
