名师指导:SAT写作高分法则之形象生动

 下面为大家推荐两个SAT写作高分法则,都是关于如何使自己的文章变得更加的形象和生动的。想要拿到SAT写作高分成绩,大家在备考的时候,就要在掌握了最基本的写作要求的前提下,对文章有更高的要求,其中形象生动则是最主要的一个。

  1、在SAT写作文章中使用具体词。

  在SAT写作文章的写作中,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。

  下面,让我们通过几个例子来证明:

  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.

  2、SAT写作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。

  其实这里并不是说不能用复杂的句子,但是一来高中生词汇量有限,二来考场上的紧迫的时间也不允许考生修饰更加复杂的句式。

  如果想用好简单句,那么考生在写作的时候,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:

  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。

  通过上面的几个对比,大家就可以对在SAT写作考试中如何做到形象生动有一个大概的印象了。大家可以在备考自己的SAT写作考试的时候,对此加以适当的参考和借鉴之用。
