Hello,
Wanted to provide an update regarding this controversial question—the answer was palpable.
It looks like cb decided to change the question since it was so controversial. Like previous controversial/experimental questions, they ended up creating easier questions from them.
Here is the new question:
The sloping tile roofs and picturesque facade of mission san josé in fremont, california, exemplify the spanish contribution to californian architecture, an influence that is palpable throughout the state—architectural tourists visiting the santa fe depot in san diego, for example, can easily ____ how its style draws inspiration from the spanish missions.
Which choice completes the test with the most logical and precise word or phrase?
a) critique
b) exaggerate
c) confuse
d) recognize
answer = d) recognize
