<p>^yes it was</p>
<p>i put harsh but accurate as well</p>
<p>^heck yes!
Everybody that put harsh but accurate seems to be coming out of the closet!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>YES!I got perfect on that vocab section without studying a single word lol… just analyze the words and use POE</p>
<p>harsh but accurate is incorrect because the second author did not agree with the first author’s conclusions</p>
<p>Agreed. Author two talks about censors usually having “genuine” intentions/concerns (although the debate on what genuine means in context rages on, whether it is “actual” or “heartfelt” is irrelevant here) while author one depicts them as those in power holding down the rest of the populace. Furthermore, author two begins by talking about the image of “belligerence” that censors usually have, and then states that this image is almost unilaterally undeserved. I rest my case :)</p>
<p>Between the “THIS IS AMERICA!!!” and “Censorship is the man holding you down!” bits, I found the first passage to be thoroughly humorous.</p>
<p>On a related note, I am still interested in intelligently discussing (Note ‘intelligently’, not “ZOMG MY ANSWER IS THE BESTEST”) the following three questions if anybody else is so inclined: Meaning of “heartfelt”, purpose of third paragraph in gardening passage (develop counterargument vs. illustrate through illusion), and the reason Drudge is used as an example in the cybergossip passage (complexity of cybergossip vs. the inclination of reputable sources to report on the less reputable ones).</p>
<p>for the purpose of the third paragraph i chose neither and said to highlight an unlikely relationship…I don’t understand what counterargument existed in the passage and illusion just doesn’t make sense.</p>
<p>He initially postulates the commonly held belief that we are the masters in our relationship with plants. He then says something to the effect of plants are the masters of bees. Then, in closing the second paragraph he questions this relationship, asking something like, “what if the plants are actually not the master of the bees?”. Then he discusses the principle of co-evolution in the third paragraph, thus elaborating on his previous counterargument.</p>
<p>Oh yeah…then it definitely is develop counter argument</p>
<p>Btw, I put heartfelt and Complexity</p>
<p>Guys, here is the answer to why it is “familiar but undeserved” and not “harsh but accurate”:</p>
<p>The first sentence of the 2nd passage said this exact idea, but not in the same words: the image of censors as evil people is very prominent in the nation. </p>
<p>Therefore, the author believes that the conception of censors is prominent, or familiar, but he then goes on to say that it is undeserved because they can just be selected instead.</p>
<p>Passage 2 advocated selection not censorship.
The author made a distinction from censorship in order to advocate her view of selection and separate herself from censorship.
Additionally, she stated that censorship is odious.
Passage 2 was more measured than passage 1 hence “harsh”
Furthermore, the description is accurate due to her wanted separation from “odious” censors.</p>
<p>I think passage 2 of the censor questions might come from the essay “not censorship, but selection”?</p>
<p>I don’t really remember the bees and apples passage, or that question in the 3rd paragraph, but I could have chosen any of those choices. Does anyone remember what the third paragraph said?</p>
<p>And I said heartfelt and complexity as well, in addition to familiar but undeserved</p>
<p>For the Censorship double passage, with the question that had the answer choices moralistic and emotional, what exactly was the question and why was it moralistic?</p>
<p>Syndekit, your logic is sound, but it misses some subtleties, and is thus wrong. It is what is known as a “trap answer”.</p>
<p>The main subtlety is that the question did not ask about passage 1’s characterization of censorship, it asked about it’s characterization of librarians and parents who engage in such activities. His first sentence contends that we have this wicked image of them (hence familiar), but goes on to talk about how selection is not that bad, as you said, and that is what for the most part the figures in passage 1 's figures were doing (hence undeserved).</p>
<p>I think we should take this as near confirmation that familiar but undeserved is correct.</p>
<p>Heartfelt vs. Actual I’m not sure at this point.</p>
<p>I put actual, but the definition of heartfelt is, “Sincere”. The definition of actual is “Existing in fact”. Genuine is defined as, “authentic” or “sincere”. Sometimes with that brand of question the exact synonym is a trap answer, which I think may be the case here.</p>
<p>Although upon reflection, “actual” does sound awkward in the context of the passage, so I remain divided.</p>
<p>Purpose of Drudge as an example</p>
<p>I still feel as though the passage’s flow was…
Explanation of why the National Enquirer is less dangerous –> Background of Drudge is provided –> Washington post is inclined to report on his writing.</p>
<p>I think that answer was explicitly apparent in the text, while the complexity answer required several unsupported inferences to be made on the readers behalf.</p>
<p>Just assume that your answers are wrong, therefore, you may be surprised at your actual score rather than feeling depressed.</p>
<p>can anyone confirm why:
moralistic
extreme
emphatic disagreement</p>
<p>thoses answers are correct??</p>
