<p>On the Creole/Caribbean passage, what were the questions for the “social criticism” and and “unflattering reaction?”</p>
<p>For the quietude/reverberate answer, what was the question? I remember that as a choice but I think I picked something else. Does anyone remember what they narrowed it down to?</p>
<p>something about movie being quiet/calm at first?
I can’t remember exactly but one other choice was passivity</p>
<p>@obama123: that was the question about why did the author mention the educator’s insane reaction when asked to teach Creole along with another language.</p>
<p>Just remembered one:</p>
<p>Q: What’s another word for Sloppy?
A: Disorderly.
I also considered another answer choice: imprecise. But that doesn’t work, since the original sentence was something like “it was too sloppy.” And “too imprecise” doesn’t make any sense.</p>
<p>@DaveMerc</p>
<p>I remember that question but I think the answer was imprecise. The professor talked about how it was too sloppy and not close enough to the real thing. </p>
<p>Anyone else’s opinion?</p>
<p>But thanks for sharing that one DaveMerc.</p>
<p>the answer was imprecise…there was a link to the passage. If you go back and read it, you will see that is correct.</p>
<p>@justPhysics: I could be wrong! </p>
<p>But here’s sloppy’s definition: Marked by a lack of neatness or order; untidy.
Synonyms: Messy, slipshod, slovenly.</p>
<p>That’s why I thought disorderly fits better. But again, I could be wrong. If I am, that would be the first wrong one. And hopefully the last. I’m really hoping for an 800.</p>
<p>INTERESTING! I just searched CC and the Caribbean passage was experimental back in Nov 2010…here are some of the answers they had then…do any of these ring a bell?</p>
<p>1) Government: more motivated by commercial motives rather than cultural ones
2) why talk about family and language? – To show a paradox set of attitudes
3) their family: flexible and inclusive
4) language: tenacious and dynamic
5) a example of “cultural penetration”: idolization of Hollywood fimls by Japanese teenagers
—need reassesement
6) produced=generated
7) Youngsters idolizing Hollywood celebrities- effect of cultural penetration Japanese
8) language is tenacious and dynamic</p>
<p>^ I remember and agree with 1, 2, 3, 4, “needs reassessment”, and again 8.</p>
<p>The Japanese teenagers/Hollywood questions do not ring a bell.</p>
<p>here’s the sentence…“the professor would have been bothered by my use of the word countless-too sloppy, for he believed that the very originsof the universe could be explained in the exact language of numbers…”</p>
<p>imprecise is correct because of “exact” language of numbers</p>
<p>1) Government: more motivated by commercial motives rather than cultural ones
2) why talk about family and language? – To show a paradox set of attitudes
3) their family: flexible and inclusive
4) language: tenacious and dynamic
5) a example of “cultural penetration”: idolization of Hollywood fimls by Japanese teenagers
—need reassesement
6) produced=generated</p>
<p>SO- do you remember 5 or 6? And can you decribe 1 a little more?</p>

6. glut/distinct(iveness)
this one was about how companies have to make their ads distinct because consumers are becoming jaded from the glut of commercials.</p>
<p>@novelidea: for the invidious influence one i think the question asked how the culture of the creole shifted. in the beginning, since they were a colony, britain had open control over them and then towards the end of the passage, the author talked about the bad influence of us culture from tvs.
i dont really remember the other ones though sorry :(</p>
<p>Thanks for the clarification @coolpillow! </p>
<p>The list looks good.</p>
<p>justphysics…do you remember what the collective cultures question was?</p>
