Trying to find an algebraic expression for the total number of text messages sent by Armand and Tyrone also seems to give the test the whiff of elitism, doesn't it? Or are all test-takers assumed to be the kinds of people who can afford mobile text messaging? In the 90s it was a big deal to get rid of all the language about how many horses Buffy was keeping down at the polo stables, because it was felt that not all test takers could relate to the story.
- Retric 11y agoThere is a world of difference between polo and cellphones. Even homeless people often have cellphones. PS: You can get a basic phone with unlimited text messaging and talk time for ~10$ a month. EX: Republic Wireless
