SAT May 2009 CR

<p>even if you don’t care, princeton online dictionary net describes it as pompous, too :slight_smile:
american heritage dictionary describes it as using overblow rhetoric</p>

<p>(lol I am really arguing over a word haha)</p>

<p>black girl in bordertown was experimental, i’m pretty sure</p>

<p>kinship any1??</p>

<p>I am sure that kinship was the answer to the Chinese one. It states that her family liked her because she was their family.</p>

<p>What about what the author of passage 1 would think about the guy who hate celebrity?</p>

<p>dam lol i was very confident with that one</p>

<p>ok so i was wrong about the kinship. -5 so far :frowning:
but i still think frank is the correct answer NOT flippant. look at my above posts for my argument.</p>

<p>I put kinship. Yes it did say “they accepted me for who I was” but then it went on to say “the daughter of my mother, the niece of w/e” and later even says I realized the importance of a FAMILY…</p>

<p>Did anyone have a S.C. section with someone who was irritated by waiting in line?
The choices were galling, disarmed, and some other ones I don’t remember.</p>

<p>is axiom confirmed?</p>

<p>It’s not frank. The reporter didn’t believe that the archaeologist was being “honest” with her statement, “I’m crazy” </p>

<p>flippant means lacking seriousness in a casual manner. The archaeologist was JUST that.</p>

<p>The celebrity one, what does the author of passage one most likely view the point made in passage two, I remember something like " because it decreases the authority of publisher", " [something] about loyal readers"?
For the Chinese one, what is the answer of the second question, the one about " her sudden awareness of family". Is that the correct choice?</p>

<p>[cavalier</a> definition | Dictionary.com](<a href=“http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/cavalier]cavalier”>CAVALIER Definition & Usage Examples | Dictionary.com)</p>

<p>Cavalier also means “offhand or unceremonious”. I think it was the best answer.</p>

<p>I thought the question was asking what the archaeologists opinion of the reporter was.</p>

<p>the archaelogist talked about things that normal reporters wouldn’t expect. that is to an extent crazy. also “In the context of the passage”. Flippant applies just to that sentence. in what other way in relation to the passage was it flippant. if anything it is a serious statement. The guy was crazy in most reporters’ opinion because he talked about unusual stuff. if the question asked what was the tone of the AUTHOR, flippant would be correct but it asked how the REPORTER would characterize the statement.</p>

<p>^ unfortunate acquiesence to conformity or something</p>

<p>I agree with acquiesce.</p>

<p>What are the answers to all of the celebrity questions that anyone remembers?</p>

<p>celebrity passage - </p>

<p>-“tooting the horn” - shamlessly conceited/mildly ridiculing himself
-Passage 2 emphasizes that some ppl pursue celebrity for further career status
-acquiescence to conformity</p>

<h2>-hold - grasp </h2>

<p>can’t remember anymore. .lol</p>

<p>Anybody answers my question please?</p>

<p>The celebrity one, what does the author of passage one most likely view the point made in passage two, I remember something like " because it decreases the authority of publisher", " [something] about loyal readers"?
For the Chinese one, what is the answer of the second question, the one about " her sudden awareness of family". Is that the correct choice?</p>
