Writing Section - 2009 March SATs

<p>@digitalfortress
I had 2 (35 Question) Writing sections and the last 14 question section</p>

<p>was that student question part of the experimental section? If so, I’m pretty sure I got -0 on writing MC based of the consensus so far here at CC.</p>

<p>ok well if you had TWO writing sections with 35 questions, then one of them was deff the experimental section.</p>

<p>But was that question about students staying after to ask questions in the real or experimental section? Sorry I can’t remember lol</p>

<p>yeah. the only thing i remember the students staying after school cuz i left that one blank.</p>

<p>^The students staying after to ask questions was real, since I had it too.</p>

<p>^yepp, real</p>

<p>fasho. thanks guys.</p>

<p>For D on the black holes one, what was the entire answer? Was it that a black hole is a celestial body? Or that it sucked in celestial bodies or something like that?</p>

<p>The last two questions of the usage questions of the 35 question writing section were both D – at least that is what I got. I think that includes the black hole question and some other question.</p>

<p>I started my essay on the wrong page (used to writing AP essays, the page looked so familiar =(). I made a clear note on the top of the front page that the essay began on the second page and continued below the note. Do you think that will be alright?</p>

<p>The black hole question was in section 10 though, and I don’t remember what letter I bubbled in. I just know that it was singular with: A black hole… and I think I put that a black hole is a celestial body.</p>

<p>for the desert problems i put A not E. the sentence had an error for sure</p>

<p>the most strangely beautiful </p>

<p>that was the answer because you cannot use strangely before an adjective. Strangely is an adverb like ‘she acted strangely’</p>

<p>you cannot say something is strangely beautiful…</p>

<p>umm i dont see whats wrong with saying strangely beautiful…its an adv…modifying an adj…thats normal…in english…</p>

<p>Yes you can… How else would you say the same thing otherwise?</p>

<p>It’s the same thing as when someone says it’s strangely quiet…</p>

<p>Yeah, I agree with rpizzle. Some examples are highly intelligent, moderately difficult, insanely easy, etc.</p>

<p>its a grammar rule</p>

<p>thats why its called an adverb
it modifies a VERB
not an adjective</p>

<p>most people use it wrong</p>

<p><em>sigh</em></p>

<p>10char</p>

<p>Idk, I still think it is right. Modifying adjectives is ubiquitous in literature and speech.</p>

<p>It IS right.</p>
