<p>I know faithful representations was a different question, but the “realistic painting” referred to those books.</p>
<p>oooo why wudnt a photograph work lol</p>
<p>Don’t remember a choice about a photograph - anybody else remember?</p>
<p>yea i was looking thru the pgs (on this thread) and seems like nobody talked abt it (i may have missed sum but there hasnt been a discussion abt it)</p>
<p>I think I rocked realistic painting on that one, but I was definitely considering photograph. I may be wrong, though.</p>
<p>On another note, does anyone remember responding with something other than “superficial appearance” to the “trappings” question? Can someone please explain this one?</p>
<p>Oh, wait - the photograph one said a photograph of famous people, right? I think I remember it now - I didn’t pick it because the books are about ordinary life, not about special people.</p>
<p>@Gazelle3: trappings are the outward decorations one can wear - “superficial appearance” of the celebrities discussed.</p>
<p>hmm did any1 else choose photograph aside from me?
to be honest i wasnt too sure about the superficial appearance, but i stuck with my first choice (which was superficial appearance)</p>
<p>Edit
loll i do remeber sumthign about ordinary ppl, but i thought that was with the photograph choice not the realistic painting</p>
<p>Photograph is not correct.</p>
<p>The passage was talking about “ordinary people” and the photo was of a famous person.</p>
<p>I have noooo clue what this is about ordinary people and photographs…was it one of the short passages?</p>
<p>^ I think it was the archaeology passage. It wasn’t photograph, for sure. I picked that at first, but there was a specific section in the passage that said something about common, ordinary people. I went with realistic painting.</p>
<p>^ yeah i’m pretty sure it was realistic painting. but i thought it was about the southern authors? she was saying how the writers went into extreme detail about nature.</p>
<p>you are right, it was the passage about the southern woman talking about russian authors.</p>
<p>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. </p>
<p>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).</p>
<p>Can somebody give me what the question was and other answer choices for these:</p>
<p>1) to prove a point of view
2) representation
3)bookish
4) idealized
5) rhetoric
6)passage 2 is more personal</p>
<p>what was the question for “compunction”? I dont remember it at all</p>
<p>@bryanbaseball17: sorry, I don’t know what the other answer choices for your #3 was, but the question asked what was different between the chemist and his friend, Sancho or something. that answer choice was that the chemist was “bookish”.</p>
<p>Jrstudent, the question only referred to “sounds” in the south. </p>
<p>And you said yourself the sounds, such as the dog barking, were realistic.</p>
<p>You were close but you didn’t look at what the question was specifically asking.</p>
<p>Aplomb was not experimental. It also was not correct.</p>
<p>@Dabigdawg72: if that’s the case then either could be right. Your argument makes sense, but you can also consider it this way: the sounds were realistic and therefore nostalgic, but they were not sufficient to fulfill her desire for a complete representation of the South. Finding these sounds “nostalgic but unsatisfying,” she continued her search for a book that captured COMPLETELY life in the south. IDK which i think is correct, but i think both are valid arguments.</p>
<p>@JNE: fine, then let me rephrase… what was the question where aplomb was A POSSIBLE answer? What were the other options? </p>
<p>Anyone know if the “spate” question was experimental?</p>
<p>To say the sounds were unsatisfying would be false. She appreciated the realism of the sounds, yet didn’t like the books because of they way they portrayed black people. Pretty much everybody on here agreed the answer was realistic. </p>
<p>I am also positive aplomb was also wrong, I remember not picking it in the sc.</p>
<p>i know that aplomb was wrong but what was the question that it went with? and what were the other answers?</p>
