Official thread october sat 2013 test

<p>@hellogloria If you can include what the gist of the questions were, people are more likely to respond</p>

<p>@tasgall-</p>

<p>DO you mean the parallelogram? ;o</p>

<p>I believe there was a general consensus on the exaggeration, satire, hypothetical reasoning question on exaggeration. However, I still feel that satire is still the right answer. How does saying “death would be too brief” exaggerate the situation. Death is brief. However, she is poking fun at how even death, something we all fear, would be better than the punishment that mrs. Flowers would inflict upon her. Anyone, thoughts?</p>

<p>@cookiestuf-
I really don’t remember…
like he kept saying
what is my name and all
so the question asked
from lines 4-7
what was the author doing
“regret being in this place”
or something
I really don’t remember …</p>

<p>@tasgall
it was 1/3</p>

<p>@hellogloria
i remember one of my answers was disquiet…forbearance</p>

<p>the answer was NOT belligerent ***… he wasn’t angry to an extreme man lol</p>

<p>@collegetalk11</p>

<p>I felt that the exaggeration was the fact that she went straight to death as the punishment. Death as a punishment from a close neighbor is too severe over such a trivial matter.</p>

<p>@hellogloria</p>

<p>Yes, I couldn’t remember what shape it was exactly :P</p>

<p>collegetalk, I’m pretty sure it was exaggerate. What is it satirizing? Poking fun at death =/= satire – especially in the context of this lighthearted story.</p>

<p>“Death would be too brief.” meant that the consequences would be dire – but not necessarily as extreme as death.</p>

<p>@collegetalk11
I wrote exaggeration because she’s not actually going to kill her
She isn’t mocking death, she’s exaggerating the extent of how ms flower would punish her.</p>

<p>@tasgall-
yeah up so 2/6 of the thing was shaded
meaning 1/3
hhehaa</p>

<p>what was the answer to the vocab where every book was unlike the next???</p>

<p>@hellogloria</p>

<p>Oh yeah, I think I remember some of it. For the first one I put that he was trying to remmeber something. b/c he really was trying to remember something haha</p>

<p>And I also put disquiet…forbearance but I’m not quite sure why</p>

<p>@collegetalk11 I put satire too and I’m 90% confident that that’s the right one. satire means to mock someone using exaggeration, and she did EXACTLY that to the woman after telling her she better not return the book mishandled</p>

<p>The first question of a math had a I II III question. Was that the ABCD line question or a different one?</p>

<p>@EmeraldChocolate-
ok but there were 2 questions on it
was the answer to the other one
something about
his name … :confused:
i’m sorry but i really cant remember the answer or the quetsoins</p>

<p>does anybody know which question i’m talking about…
if you would kindly tell me the answer choices …</p>

<p>When you use satire, you use exaggeration, humor, or irony to mock someone come on boys and girls</p>

<p>i put satire as well. i felt writing and critical reading to be alright… i hate math so much</p>

<p>@cookiestuf disquiet… forbearance was correct. at first he was weirded out and by the end he decided to not do anything (forbearance) and wait for the info he forgot to come to him</p>

<p>can someone PLEASE answer my questions?</p>

<p>satire here too. the passage said ‘death would be too kind’ so that’s not exaggerating at all, it’s making humor at how even death would be better than her punishment</p>

<p>whatever if anything happens I’ll go UTEP (99% acceptance rate)</p>
