<p>What was the answer to that one? Pristine or the other one?</p>
<p>haha yea, i couldnt tell cause ive always been told to stay away from extremes, and disdainful means like scornful or extreme dislike, and idk it seems like he didnt HATE the tv, he just was against its ways, and by riding he defied it…tough question i thought
also this might have been in my experimental verbal section, but the fill in about the population bulge. it was like “the recent population bulge had a great impact. becuase of the proliferation/vacillation (idk which is right) the environment couldnt handle it”…they both make sense to me</p>
<p>do you remember any more about the question? i think i put revival but i’m probably wrong.</p>
<p>I am sticking with disdain too…defiant just doesn’t fit. yeah aldeswari revival is wrong (unfortunately). Spate was the correct answer</p>
<p>its disdainful</p>
<p>tennis89, i think that was an experimental section.
oh right, last writing section…
“Mark Spitz won the Olympic Games…”
i chose an answer with “by winning 7 medals”…something like that.
i’m not sure about it though.</p>
<p>if I had two math section in a row, one of them must have been experimental right? please help.</p>
<p>disdainful is too strong. the strongest answer choice of the bunch is 99.9% of the time the incorrect answer.</p>
<p>i’m pretty sure it was disdainful. The passage overall was very caustic and cynical so it inherently is disdainful. Anyone who is *<strong><em>ed off a television is REALLY *</em></strong>ed</p>
<p>srtatmann, you too think its defiant then?</p>
<p>i’m definitely with breakaway. It was a strong answer, only because he felt so strongly against TV’s. Only using the context thus far, you couldn’t have assumed it was “defiant” at all. Plus, it’s even more extreme than disdainful. Definintely not ambivalent or the other answer…didn’t make sense at all. I was between resigned and disdainful, but i felt he was giving too strong of a tone to be “resigned”</p>
<p>did you guys feel at the end of the passage that he liked the people in the towns or was against their simple ways of life?</p>
<p>lol…he was definitely for the people and their way of life. It was the whole point of the passage. He had gone through a realization of how beautiful and free the countryside was and the realization of the paradox of city culture making the country-life look simplemind and stupid and all that crap.</p>
<p>If I Had Two Math Sections In A Row, One Was Probably Experimental Right?</p>
<p>right thats what i thought- why is every1 saying though that the passage was caustic and cynical? it seemed like he was enjoying he lifestyle, and he jsut had that brief moment where he explained his life against the monotonous life of TV</p>
<p>yes breakaway, that’s probably the case. I had 2 CR’s in a row, and one was experimental</p>
<p>I put defiant…same sentiments as above</p>
<p>btw the exquisite one could have been intense in context and that would match with dictionary definition as well
-exquisite - 3. intense; acute, or keen, as pleasure or pain. </p>
<p>biography: an answer was author of passage 2 would say skilled biographers would not exactly make a re-creation.</p>
<p>nah he wasnt DEFIANT when he was saying that- he was expressing SCORN and so i thoguth it was disdain- defiant i think is defienitly more strong than disdainful too.</p>
<p>i got the same answer about biographers as juventus10</p>
