<p>it was definitely not buttressed</p>
<p>is affronted correct?</p>
<p>Dang. I wasn’t confident anyways. Did you all get Curtail? DH teared ass on this test lmao</p>
<p>i put affronted</p>
<p>It was definitely buttressed.</p>
<p>What were the other choices besides affronted? I think I got that one wrong.</p>
<p>Disgusting was one. I got it wrong too :/</p>
<p>Consolidated: </p>
<p>Placid
Sleep
Apocryphal
Foreboding… Elation</p>
<p>Lawyer’s tone = affronted
“very understandable” = sympathetic</p>
<p>Disgusted was too strong IMO</p>
<p>^Disgusted? Yeah I put that. Son of a mother duck. :(</p>
<p>I put buttressed because inconclusive results do not minimize a correlation. That makes no sense… statistically</p>
<p>Crap…I put diffident instead of placid. That’s -1 so far…-2 if it’s aggravated/buttressed.</p>
<p>Buttressed is wrong. The answer is “impair…minimize”.</p>
<p>^That’s what I put. What does “buttressed” mean, anyway? Support?</p>
<p>yup, it means to support, but i don’t think it fit with the question logically</p>
<p>Butressed is wrong because you can’t aggravate blood pressure regulation.</p>
<p>So you agree that placid is right? I also put diffident…</p>
<p>^Yeah. Diffident means shy. IDK why I put that.</p>
<p>DH says “not assertive,” but I’ve also forgotten the question at this point. They seem similar… I just thought placid was an odd descriptor of a personality.</p>
<p>Oh, I think that buttress might be the answer. Even though the evidence is inconclusive (i.e. it doesn’t for sure prove it 100%), it still makes the theory stronger?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Basically, the person doesn’t get angry/sad/etc. as easily as other people do–>placid.</p>
<p>I’m not sure if the embargo has been lifted yet but I apologize and recant my actions if it hasn’t been.
For the first section of CR in the short paragraphs- what did you guys put for why the “quotations” were included in the passage about the writer. I put down they were the type of language he used instead of what his contemporaries applauded him with.</p>
<p>Any thoughts?</p>
<p>^Those were the 2 choices I had left. I went with the contemporaries choice because the second quote had nothing to do with the language.</p>
<p>Just pulled this off of Google:</p>
<p>"contemporariesplural of con·tem·po·rar·y (Noun)
- A person or thing living or existing at the same time as another."</p>
<p>I thought that contemporaries had to come after (and the question said that he was immediately accoladed). So I think the contemporaries choice is correct.</p>
