<h2>that’s what i remmeber… </h2>
<p>The answer stated was “inflated style”. The literary definition of an inflated style is a pompous, or bombastic style. </p>
<p>I don’t think the passage suggested that the writers wrote pompously… because oratorical and pompous are unrelated.</p>
<p>well “maybe slightly humorous if your 70” answers your question. CB if full of old people who have a low sense of humor. i guess i don’t have any more counterarguments but sardonic seems to be a common answer for many cr questions even when they were not actually skeptically humorous.</p>
<p>The answer for the Russian authors passage was “Insincere sentiments”. One of the definitions for sincere is “genuine” and sentiments is “feelings, or attitudes”. The white Southern authors held not genuine attitudes towards blacks. They were cartoonish and not real. Inflated style just means elitist, which wasn’t what the guy described the white authors as being.</p>
<p>what are all of the answers that we know so far?</p>
<p>well doesn’t oratorical imply a higher style of writing. i remember her specifically saying she doesn’t like it because it’s oratorical. on the other hand, i do see your point.</p>
<p>er. inflated style ie. exaggerated or hyperbolic. which goes with ingram’s point about caricatures…</p>
<p>wow there are so many controversial questions out here. i don’t think this many has ever happened before so in that case there aren’t many answers we’ve confirmed so far.</p>

<p>+1 michael</p>
<p>im on the “inflated style” side loll
wud u consider this CR harder than march’s?</p>
<p>i think that it is old vocab
she said that black people didnt actually talk like that and didnt use the weird dialects that authors say they do.</p>
<p>inflated style doesnt just mean elitist…</p>
<p>Inflated style is when you use “overblown”, “puffed-up” and overly flowery language. The white authors held “insincere sentiments” towards the black characters, I believe.</p>
<p>honestly it could have been both. oratorical agrees with inflated style and michael’s argument agrees with insincere statements.</p>
<p>what were the other 2 choices other than inflated style, insincere, and old vocab?</p>
<p>Wow, so much controversy on this thread.</p>
<p>I’ve learned to just wait until scores and QAS come out. It’s impossible to establish definitive answers to most CR questions.</p>
<p>yeah, I agree. Math is relativly easy, but W and CR, I don’t remember at all :P</p>
<p>i guess we could complain about some. I mean its different when you can’t decide between 2 answers but if you can JUSTIFY both of them then that’s definitely a No-No question. The advice “Every question has only one right answer” seems kinda contradictory for this test.</p>
<p>I am def sure it’s insincere.
a) it said the language of black ppl were too oratorical which means pertaining to spoken language. You know stuff like aint… it’s oratorical language…
b) southern writers would NEVER inflate the language of black ppl bc inflate also means
*to puff up with pride, satisfaction, etc.
*to elate
c) plus insincere also means fasle </p>
<p>i looked up all the definition on dictionary.com so i am pretty darn sure </p>
<p>O… and wat did you guys put for the primary function of paragraph 3 on the celebrity dual passage…
i thought it was either to reemphasize a point of view or to critique a trend and i ended up putting to reemphasize a point of view </p>
