00:08

a green rock when it's thrown into the red sea

00:13

It gets wet Yeah that's it There was no joke

00:16

there Okay check the following passage from somerset The mom

00:21

nineteen twenty one Trembling of a leaf Yeah okay And

00:26

we're skim And the kid taliban is their life that

00:30

you received flat hospital Go for boating All right well

00:35

the passage compares the pacific ocean Tio what And hear

00:38

the potential answers stop journey Okay well here we go

00:44

We might not be able to get this one if

00:47

we give the passage one of those so so reads

00:50

way always do here where we only pay attention every

00:52

other word So i gotta kind of do another quick

00:55

read through here again Definitely wouldn't fight unless someone were

00:58

punching us while we did it And you know that

01:00
