SAT文章阅读步骤(精华"三部曲")

最近很多十年级的童鞋问我 “老师，SAT阅读为什么那么难？除了单词看不懂，这结构也很奇怪，我读不懂”. 那今天，Luyi老师就来和大家分析下SAT阅读“三部曲”来帮助大家理解SAT的阅读文章。

首先，我们来看，SAT的文章分三类：

1.US and World Literature: 1 passage; 10-11 questions

2.History / Social Studies: 2 passages or 1 passage and 1 paired-passage set; 10-11 questions each

3.Science: 2 passages OR 1 passage and 1 paired-passage set; 10-11 questions each

在阅读美国和世界文学片段的时候要了解以下几点：

US and WORLD literature passages

-Multiple characters and multiple opinions

-The tone will be nuanced (微妙的) and emotion-based (not informative or explanatory)

阅读时要带着下列“三部曲”进行阅读：

1.Identify the characters

2.Assess the characters’ opinions of each other

3.Identify the themes of the story (any turning points/ is there a moral to the story)

在阅读历史和社会片段的时候要了解以下几点：

History/Social Studies Passages

-Clear topic, a well-defined scope, and a specific purpose

-At least one primary source passage that uses antiquated language

阅读时要带着下列“三部曲”进行阅读：

1.Identify the topic and scope of the passage (topic and scope are usually found in the first paragraph)

2.Identify the topic sentence of each paragraph

3.Summarize the purpose of the passage

而最后科学类文章则需了解：

Science passage

-Contain a lot of jargon and technical terms （上过英语课的童鞋应该马上可以pick up “jargon”的意思吧 – 术语！）

-Utilize unfamiliar terms and concepts

科学“三部曲”：

1.Locate the central idea in the first paragraph

2.Note how each paragraph relates to the central idea (does the paragraph explain /support/refute/summarize?)

3.Unfamiliar terms will generally be defined within the passage or in a footnote.

好了，那在看完我们阅读三部曲之后，Luyi老师还要告诉大家的是： SAT阅读不必担心题目中的词汇问题。因为，大部分与单词有关的问题都会在上下文的描述中加以解释说明。如果，大家还有任何与SAT阅读有关的问题，欢迎大家联系我们。
