Yet again, you are trying to get us to do your homework for you. NO!!
Reply:I agree. Do your own homework!


I'd also like to have a word with your teacher. some of these multiple choice questions and answers are bad.


1. they are usually one movement though there are a few exceptions.


3. is just a bad question as it requires a far too general answer for which there are many exceptions.


6. doesn't offer you the correct answer. There are several composers that are better choices who are not on that list.


19. This question is just ridiculous. only one of the answers is a term even used to describe contrapuntal motion.
Reply:The EXACT same people have answered as the people who answered your other question -


"Do you own homework!"


"We won't do your homework!"


"Will you do your own homework?"


So now you've wasted 30 points for people to tell you to do your homework.





EDIT:


Now there's two more answers - and guess what, those exact same people told you to do your own homework on your other question too.





It takes less time just to use a search engine!!! Why don't you just do it? Nobody's going to do it for you!! I thought that from all the other answers on other questions you've asked, you could've figured out to just do it!!!
Reply:1-20 drop the class. In the future at least post your answers so we can agree or disagree and talk about the validity of the actual questions.
Reply:Lord all knowing of everything 'cept music, it would have taken you less time to do a web search than to type up the questions.





... good luck with that.
