thoughts, and experiences of others.

What is proponent? correct answers Advocate or agree with

If the claims made in the passage are correct, how would politicians on the political right be
expected to react to America's program to protect endangered species from extinction? correct
answers Me: Failed to choose the authors negative tone

Authors says the right hates government interference so they would hate and criticize. I had the
right answer at first but read that the program had little cost so I assumed they couldn't criticize
it.


Lesson: choose BASED on authors tone. The criticize the authors main idea

To which of the following hypothetical Congressional actions would the author probably lend
the most support, based on the information in the passage? correct answers Missed the passage
information that companies did voluntary choice in regard to stop pollution

I did not know the answer automatically

Suppose researchers discovered the manuscript for an 1841 musical theater act to be preformed
on Mississippi River steamboats.... correct answers Strengthen because Musical originated from
London that author mentioned

I did not know the answer automatically

Which of the following questions are answered? correct answers choose answers that are
evidenced in the passage

Which would weaken the author's argument? correct answers expand upon reasoning in the text

usually points that contradict the main idea

Character Development correct answers Make up a word that characterize the people in the
passage and put it against each answer choice

Main Idea correct answers Is the author an unbiased writer or do they feel strongly on the topic
they are writing about?

What is the author's purpose in writing this piece?

Are they aiming to persuade readers or simply inform them of the facts?

,The author's suggestion that reality in art before Cézanne had been a "will-o'-the-wisp" can most
reasonably be interpreted to mean that artists before Cézanne had not:

A. attempted to imitate reality faithfully.
B. agreed about the value of Impressionism.
C. been able to perceive reality.
D. found a way to depict reality effectively. correct answers I choose C.
- C is wrong because they didn't have a problem with perception but with application.

D is the correct answer.
- the author mentions "perspective does not give us any glimpse of the reality.". So perception is
present but it is not being used effectively.

The author's assertion that Greek, Roman, and Renaissance art tried to represent the world
accurately is:


A. illustrated in the passage by examples of specific works of art.
B. not supported by evidence in the passage.
C. supported in the passage by a discussion of the nature of perception.
D. contradicted by evidence later in the passage.

We know, for example, that at various stages in the history of art there have been attempts to
make art "imitative"; and not only Greek and Roman art, but the Renaissance of Classical art in
Europe, were periods of art possessed by a desire to represent the world "as it really is." But
there always intervened between the visual event and the act of realizing the vision an activity
which we can only call interpretative. This intervention seemed to be made necessary by the very
nature of perception, which does not present to the senses a flat two-dimensional picture with
precise b correct answers I chose C.
- The author automatically went from knowledge on Greeks to perception. Upon further analysis
I see that the two ideas are not related. They are just sequential.

Correct Answer: B

The author asserts Greek and Roman art was "possessed of a desire to represent the world as it
really is'" without offering specific examples or discussion of exactly how Greek and Roman
artists attempted this.

Suppose that a painting contained words with no apparent relevance to the scene depicted. The
passage suggests that in discussing this painting, the passage author would be most likely to:

A. assume that the artist intended to puzzle the viewer.
B. interpret the scene on the basis of the words.
C. interpret the words on the basis of the scene.
D. discuss the scene without reference to the words. correct answers I choose A.

, - I was confused with the question. I missed this point in the passage.

Correct Answer is C.
-When Poussin removed the death's-head and retained the Latin phrase Et in Arcadia ego, the
words originally attributed to the death's-head, the viewer is forced to attribute the words to the
tomb or the dead person inside the tomb and to mistranslate the Latin phrase; thus, the viewer is
forced to interpret the words on the basis of the scene.

Passage:
Instead of two or three Arcadians approaching from the left in a group, we have four,
symmetrically arranged on either side of a sepulchral monument. Instead of being checked in
their progress by an unexpected and terrifying phenomenon, they are absorbed in calm
discussion and pensive contemplation. The form of the tomb is simplified into a plain rectangular
block, and the death's-head is eliminated altogether.

Suppose that Socrates had said to his prosecutors, "I will obey my god rather than you." How
would this information affect the claim that the prosecutors were correct to accuse Socrates of
not believing in the city gods?


A. It would refute the claim.
B. It would support the claim.
C. It would support the claim if it could be shown that the god to whom Socrates referred was an
Olympian figure.
D. It would support the claim if it could be shown that the god to whom Socrates referred was
not an Olympian figure.


And at the same time Socrates was questioning the whole traditional fabric so indefatigably that
his prosecutors, who secured his death sentence, were hardly wrong to accuse him of "not
believing in the gods in whom the city believes." correct answers My answer was A.
-Half right Half wrong

Correct answer is D.

Since the "Olympian powers" implicitly included "the gods in whom the city believes", the
demonstration that the god obeyed by Socrates was not among these powers would confirm the
accusation that he did not believe in the city gods.

The claim that religion was one of the most vital elements in the Hellenistic world is based
mainly on the:

A. comments of St. Paul regarding pagan Hellenism.
B. existence of cults devoted to Divine Saviours.
C. writings of Menander and Epicurus.
D. idea that Olympian gods had once been human kings.
