sat考试介绍之写作法则:
法则一:多运用动词和主动语态
作为文章的编写者,你主要的任务是把你想说的用文字的方式传达给你的读者。为了达到这个目的,你可以多使用动词和主动语态来为你的文章增加生命力。
1、在文章中把一个主要的名词换成动词例;Verb to be: the use of leaf blowers before 8 am is a violation of local noise abatement laws.
Action verb: the use of leaf blowers before 8 am violates local noise abatement laws.
2、用一个动词来替代句子中的其中一个重要的名词或形容词例;Verb to be: The quarterback’s wretched performance was a disgrace to his team
Action verb: The quarterback’s wretched performance humiliated his team
3、如果你不知道该如何更改动词,可以重新整理语句形式例;Verb to be: Jamie was happy to be part of the all-star soccer team.
Action verb: Being a part of the all-star soccer team thrilled Jamie.
以上的例子已经解析了,运用动词可以是句子更具生动性,也更能吸引读者的眼球。
4、主动语态 Passive Voice: 例;the main idea for my essay was stated as the first sentence in the first paragraph.
Active Voice: I stated the main idea of my essay in the first sentence in the first paragraph.
Passive voice: money for the new recreation building was raised quickly Active voice: the recreation committee quickly raised money for the new building.
法则二:在文章中使用借词
在文章的写作中,少运用一些general words,反而多增加specific images. 什么是general words和specific images那,例如说; car 就是general words,因为车的种类有很多。 而Benz SUV 就是specific images。 在考试的时候,多使用specific words可以帮助把物体解释的更清楚。读者也会获得更多的信息,使他们对你的文章更方便了解。小编还是要提醒大家注意总结SAT写作范文,根据自己的实际情况选择一些SAT写作培训班。
下面,让我们通过几个sat写作例子来证明;例1;General: Tom got into his car and drove off.
Specific: Tom leaped into his SUV and roared off.
例2;General: The writer wrote a three-page critique of the painting in which he said he did not like it.
Specific: In his three-page critique, the art critic squeezed every drop of meaning- and enjoyment- out of the 3-inch by 3-inch pastel.
General words 对人物,地点,和事物的介绍都无法给读者准备的信息,所以为了更清楚的说明,把这些名词都应该换成specific words. 例3;General: An old dog came up the street.
Specific: An ancient, gray-muzzled golden retriever wandered up Bluebird Canyon Road.
例4;General: My coach illustrates the point about playing fairly.
Specific: My basketball coach, Ms Berry, illustrates the essay- ist’s point about playing fairly.
例5;General: At the end of the day, the workmen walked up the snow-covered road.
Specific: At the end of the day, the tired workmen trudged wearily up the snow-covered road.
法则三:多运用动词和主动语态
大家在写作的时候,有的同学习惯使用一些例如 ugly as sin, pretty as a picture之类的词汇。在这里,建议大家不要使用这类词汇。因为在使用这些词汇的时候,会给读者一种陈词滥调,平淡无味的感觉,更有可能使读者误会你本身的意思。尤其是在SAT写作考试当中使用。
以下列出的词汇,请大家尽量不要在写作中使用; 例1;I was shaking in my boots before the interview, but I was happy as a lark when the personnel manager offered me the job.
Improved: I was terrified before the interview, but I was ecstatic when the personnel manager offered me the job.
例2;Whether the author really believed what he wrote was the sixty-four dollar question.
Improved: whether the author really believed what he wrote was difficult to determine from the answers he gave the interviewer.
法则四:文章由始至终的使用简单的语句
在你的写作的时候,尽量的使用简单的词汇并写作易懂的语句。这样做,可以使读者更清楚的明白你的立场和你文章的目的。要记住,SAT写作不是考察你的生词量,而是在考察你是否能将你的想法通过文字的方式传递给读者。
如果想做到这点,那么作者在写作的时候,应该避免使用那些无关紧要的词汇,模糊不清的词汇,和条例不清的语句。让我们来看下面的例子;
例;To facilitate input by the maximum number of potential purchasers, questionnaires were designed and posted well in advance of the launch of the promotional marketing campaign.
Improved: Before we began advertising, we designed and mailed a marketing survey to find out what customers were looking for.
通过比较,我们可以清楚的明白,上面的句子,使用了一些不必要的词汇,而导致句子看上去繁琐难懂。下面的句子,经过编改,变得简单易懂。
法则五:避免使用俚语
SAT的写作考试,要求的是一篇有专业性的写作,而不是一篇日记或随笔。所以使用俚语不应该在SAT的考试中出现。例如,在高考的时候,考生把“我要去…”写成“俺要去…”加有地方方言的语言方式。
