<p>They couldnt use two possible definitons of the same word in the same question. That would be incredibly ambiguous. The definiton of industry in passage 1 has to be the same as the definiton of industry in passage 2.</p>
<p>i was simply pointing out that it can be used in a different context. The more commonly known definiton has already been brought up by the previous poster, but thanks for that. JJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ124.</p>
<p>You’re kidding, right? They are BOTH industries. It did not specify the TYPE, just INDUSTRY. THRIVING INDUSTRY.</p>
<p>Hahaha, my point is that when a question is asked about two passages, it applies to both passages in the same sense. Based on passage 2, I think its pretty clear what definition of industry is being referrenced (not the incredibly obscure one). This isnt a SC and it isnt an A.P. exam question. This is SAT reading. </p>
<p>For example If I asked you: Do you think person A and person B are gay?</p>
<p>Would you think, well person A is happy (and then gay by one possible definiton); and person B is homosexual (and thus gay). And then proceed to answer yes?</p>
<p>Gay was the first word I thought of, dont mean to offend anyone.</p>

<p>*People seem to be saying that the small passage wasn’t talking about the assumption that women would not vote independently from their husbands, but rather was talking about women sharing the same ideas as their husbands (or something). Also, the ‘industry vs. genius vs. little is known’ question is still unclear. For each of these questions, please leave what you think the answer is, your SAT CR range, and how much you thinking led you to your opinion.</p>
<p>**Other than these two questions, I can pretty much assure you that these answers are absolutely correct.</p>

<p>what was the question for precipitately?</p>
<p>Let me ask you a question. Is the “industry” in commercial,industry different from the “industry” in the Publishing industry? Hint: The answer’s no. </p>
<p>They both thrive. Gay is different, gay can only mean on or the other. Its not flexible.
Passage one can be about jack coming out of the closet, and passage two can be about john coming out of 5 closets. Are they both homosexuals? Yes. </p>
<p>Are boston and new york cities? New york is a very big city and a very wealthy city- and also a very different city. Its still a city. Just like boston.</p>
<p>Also, I still maintain that it’s humorous, not derisive. Derisive is a very strong word.

<p>Also, keep in mind passage 2 explicitly refers to a booming business industry. I have seen some good arguments for industry, but also some obstinancy…</p>
<p>I vote for industry, because the genius one is too extreme.</p>
<p>What do you think about the women suffrage question?
Do married women cannot vote independent from their husbands or do women share samw opinions on most question with men?</p>
<p>I chose the latter, but obviously many people chose the first. Which is the correct answer?</p>
<p>The assumption was that they wouldn’t vote independently of their husbands.</p>

<p>I believe the answer is that women would not vote independently of their husbands.</p>
<p>Passage 1 talks about intellectual industry, while passage 2 explicitly talks about commercial<br>
industry.</p>
<p>That’s my opinion…</p>
<p>not to be repetitive…but what was the question for “precipately” lol i can’t remember what i put down for that</p>
<p>I chose the latter as well. Passage one clearly talks about How women’s views turned out to be different. Thus the initiative assumption was that they were similar.</p>

<p>While Passage one talks about industry both passages clearly indicate that Shakespeare is an enigma of sorts. I remember passage one says something like, “we don’t know if he really lived in this small town or where he lived for that matter all we can do is speculate etc” passage two then comments that “we don’t even know what he really looks like”. I don’t know, but from those two lines it seemed evident that Shakespeare is an enigma and his life is still shrouded in mystery. Industry seemed to ■■■■■■■■ to be right to me lol.</p>
<p>Genius, Industry, and Mystery were not answer choices! think carefully about
the specific wording of the answer choices.</p>
<p>Modifyers were:</p>
<p>Genius to the highest degree</p>
<p>Thriving industry</p>
<p>Dont remember mystery.</p>
