you are right, it was the passage about the southern woman talking about russian authors.

Also, I don’t think “realistic representation of life in the south” or w/e was the right answer to the question about what she thought of the depictions of the south. I’m fairly certain it was “nostalgic but unsatisfying” because while the authors got SOME of the details right (dogs barking, etc.) they ultimately did not capture the nuances of life in the south.

For the other vocab questions, I had one where the answer was “spate” and one where the answer was “aplomb” but it’s possible those were on my experimental (I had the experimental CR with two passages about conformism).
