[Video] Q34: Woolf uses the word “we” throughout the passage mainly to

Explanation for Question 34 From the Reading Section on the Official Sat Practice Test 1

Okay. So 34 is asking Wolf, 2 uses the word weed throughout the passage, mainly to do what we is, 3 um, basically referring to women as a whole women in English society. 4 When we say, we, we say, we're talking about all women in England. 5 And so the reason why we're using we instead of I is to kind 6 of establish this like sense of like, 7 this is a movement we're all in this together type of thing, 8 right? Like it's much more powerful to talk about we, 9 instead of I, because you're talking about a big group, you're not just talking 10 about Virginia Wolf, you're talking about, you know, the entirety of England, 11 um, women. So is it just the growth friendliness and mommy group? 12 No, we're not that we're not talking about how women are being friendly to 13 each other. We're not talking about the need for candor. 14 We're talking about establishing a sense of solidarity. 15 That's what C says. It's a sense of like culture. 16 Like let's fight this together. Let's question these values together. 17 Let's question how we enter into these institutions together, 18 right? There's no need for respect us. So it's not D it's, 19 it's establishing this sense of comradery and like, 20 you know, the sense of like group cohesion, 21 um, by using the word weeds, it's establishing the sense that women are in 22 this together and fighting together. And so this is a question where you don't 23 really look into the passage for evidence. It's more so just kind of making 24 an inference based on, you know, why would an author use we, 25 instead of just referring to herself.
