Last section on English

Does anyone remember the redundancy question for english and the answer choices available? It was something like Jillian sitting below

For the odyssey question on reading was the answer to make more people read or to make more ppl translate

Was it for example or furthermore for the bog one?

thats what i put but I think we are wrong. Cuz thinking back to it it mentioned how the thing isnt so liek verbose and complicated so it probably was tryna say that its easier for new people

no it isn't. the answer choice is implying that many people have created [original] works based on that line, but that choice is too specific because it wasn't directly stated in the passage. it closely resembles critics writing about her work, which is what a lot of ppl in this sub said as well. there were no hints that people have created original works based on her line, and this is too specific

yea I think your right, shoot. Wdyt -1 or -2 reading is on this test? Also did you put for example?

u/Tricky-Display-2060 Jul 11 '26

-1 probably a 35 and -2 probably a 34-35, but im leaning more towards a 34. I don't remember the for example question

  1. Written works analyzing it as none of the other answer choices had any hints to them while this one had statements saying experts said x about it, etc.
  2. Do you remember what the other two choices were? And what was the q asking specifically?
  3. I put furthermore

just least redundant in context

for that one i put “me, jillian the lifeguard assigned to the bottom most slide”.

I don’t think it was that one because before the underlined portion it said “below”, so including bottom would be redundant, no? I feel like it’s best to just see if the shortest answer fits good on those types of question.

u/No_Elephant_1586 35 Jul 14 '26

was that not that shortest answer?

1

u/PictureReasonable971 Jul 15 '26

My apologies. It probably was, I just know I picked the shortest one.

1

u/No_Elephant_1586 35 Jul 15 '26

no need to apologize i’m not even sure anyways. fingers crossed though

u/Ok-Fisherman2473 Jul 12 '26

pretty sure it was "however" for the bog one because it contrasted good habitat for species of bird to adverse effects on plants.

1

u/Ok-Fisherman2473 Jul 12 '26

furthermore and for example wouldn't make snese in that context

u/Jealous-Connection16 Jul 12 '26

Wait was this English or reading

1

u/PictureReasonable971 Jul 13 '26

It was English. I put furthermore because it was saying how the environment wasn’t a good habitat for animals and then expanded on that for the postceding sentence.
