<p>WRITING:

the taxes disadvantaged</p>

<p>senior employees being worried about the new employees - they</p>

<p>gel IS extracted from the leaves, corrected from ARE</p>

<p>snow and visiting the college - dangling modifier problem</p>

<p>carb question - verb disagreement</p>

<p>the cities has museums - have museums</p>

<p>know actions are detrimental, but are unwilling to change it - change it was wrong</p>

<p>competition between my sister and i - should be sister and me</p>

<p>braces, fixing the paragraph:
sentence to delete -
what do “things” represent - “unsightly contraption”</p>

<p>whats were some of the questions on the experimental for math?</p>

<p>Andreea i thought it was already confirmed disadvantaged is no error</p>

<p>there i fixed it.</p>

<p>and i dont know which ones are exp or not. do you guys see any in the math part that dont seem familiar to you? i can take them off for next time.</p>

<p>what was the setence with the “disadvantaged”?</p>

<p>NO ERRORS: (i’m pretty sure)
indigo
plants chemically and biologically
commercial logging
sir and queen elizabeth
museum question</p>

<p>“why didnt the daughter ask the mother until adulthood - ?”</p>

<p>I am pretty sure that the only was close was something about how she didn’t really care about the info until she was an adult. becuase in the passage it says that she didn’t ask her mom until she needed inspiration for herself as a writer. </p>

<p>“what is closest to the description of details - performance of a play? mission from space? portrait? photo of building? pic of human heart?”</p>

<p>that’s pic of human heart</p>

<p>something like “the senators knew that some people were disadvantaged by the taxes, but others benefitted from them.”</p>

<p>what is the answer is to the one where its like both companies, each of which sold drugs, alcohol, and prostitution</p>

<p>and can someone post the musuem sentence?
if the musuem sentence was the one where two cities has a musuem, then it did have an error
you had to change “has a musuem” to “have musuems” i think</p>

<p>the quesion with disadvantaged: others or them was underlined, so i circled one of those because the word was too vague.</p>

<p>i’m positive the ones i listed are no error. if you look at the past posts people confirmed mine. 5 no errors.</p>

<p>“why didnt the daughter ask the mother until adulthood - ?”
i put because “her mothers attitude successfully stifled her interest in attempting to do so” or something like that. *note - CR not my strength.</p>

<p>Wow…is it just my own observation or is severed really rude?</p>

<p>i put not having the impulse to do so.</p>

<p>yeah i put the mothers attitude also. because in the passage it seemed like she was interested, she talked about feeling like an alien as a child and wanting to know more about her heritage and everything.</p>

<p>is that the same as not having the impulse to do so, or was it a different choice?</p>

<p>definitely retaking in oct.</p>

<p>museum:</p>

<p>both san francisco and las vegas have a great history museum.</p>

<p>something like that i think.</p>

<p>severed - i also changed “has a museum” to “have museums”</p>

<p>wait. are we talking about the first portion of the writing or the error identification regarding this museum question?</p>

<p>jadore i don’t think that’s from the same choice :(</p>
