<p>also for the pencil one did you guys say there was a contrast between the kids and the artists</p>

<p>I put similarity with kids and artists. And did anyone put futile instead tedious? </p>

<p>WRITING PLS CAN SOMEONE CARE LIKE ITS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS CR PPL</p>

<p>@HKcollegequest‌
Yes, the vegetarian question was no error. </p>

<p>Kids and artists->contrast
Punctuation passage -> tedious. </p>

<p>@icedrops thanks man you fab</p>

<p>and yeah I got the same answers.
Did you get incidentally or what’s more for the paragraph improvement?</p>

<p>@HKcollegequest‌
What’s more. It’s emphasizing there was evidence on top of it. Incidentally might sound nicer, but it means btw, but the staff listening to the top 40 radio thing adds to the point </p>

<p>I’m so sad I put incidentally - there goes a possible 800 in writing</p>

<p>Does anyone remember the last grid-in question? Answer was 13</p>

<p>@HKcollegequest‌
Depends on your essay. I got 2 wrong + 10 last time -> 770</p>

<p>@icedrops ooh NICE. Was this for October? Also, yes, the last grid in was 13. I checked it twice.
I hope I got a 10 on my essay - I didn’t have a conclusion though :frowning: I went for writing a second body in 4 minutes instead of a conclusion lmao I don’t know why</p>

<p>@irlandaise yea a quick clarification the abraham lincoln passage was a double passage with 23 questions on it and 8 vocab questions to begin with
So you can just shorten that list a little LOL :slight_smile: </p>

<p>@icedrops @HKcollegequest‌ </p>

<p>What was the vegetarian question again? Was it about “chance of survival?”</p>

<p>I don’t exactly remember, but it had to do with preferring to not eat animals.
What I do remember is that prefer not to eat was in the sentence, and prefer not was underlined.</p>

<p>Shouldn’t your score depend on what specific questions you get wrong? So like if you get level 1 question wrong, then you lose a lot.</p>

<p>@emersonballer21‌ @Chrysanthemum14‌ </p>

<p>Was the answer to the question that punctuation was “tedious an boring” or “unnecessary”?</p>

<p>Also, what was the question with kids and artist in pencil passage? I can’t recall the question.</p>

<p>"The author of the report had to acknowledge that this was something to do with the reader-writer relationship and had nothing to do with accurate punctuation at all. To write well you had, almost, to hear how the reader would respond. You would have to, perhaps literally, say the words out loud and see if they sounded OK. You would have to imagine if the picture you had conjured in your head would translate into another person to see if the image would resonate.</p>

<p>And this has much more to do with how punctuation was originally conceived than a book of rules that can never change."</p>

<p>This mostly attests to the fact that punctuation was created with the intention of producing clarity, not creativity. It’s purpose is to make sure that the reader and the author see the same “image”. Therefore, I really don’t think that the author believed that punctuation “undermines creativity”. </p>

<p>@petercho1996‌ @Icedrops‌ i’m with ya. What’s the question about kids and artists??? </p>

<p>Consensus on “incidentally” vs “whats more”?</p>

<p>@sechukie‌
It was referring to how the pencil is a tool that artists use to express creativity, in contrast to how kids use it (like doodles). Something along those lines</p>
