  SAT作文考试的形式和大家以往接触过的英语考试写作有些不同,需要大家在备考的时候详细的掌握。根据这些写作的形式,需要大家应用一些相对比较特别的答题策略,一起来看看详细的内容介绍吧。

  The SAT always starts with the essay question. You have 25 minutes to read, think, plan, write a first draft, and proofread. In the answer booklet, you’ll find lined paper; you must write only on this paper, and you must stay within the black margins. Be sure to write legibly because your essay is being read quickly by a reader unfamiliar with your handwriting. The essay counts as one-third of your writing score.

  The essay question is set up as follows:

  1. First you are asked to think about a prompt, a few sentences stating an issue, such as the following:

  Most people spend their lives trying to be successful. To achieve this goal, some have tried to create a formula for a successful life. According to British statesman Benjamin Disraeli, “One secret of success in life is for a man to be ready for his opportunity when it comes.”

  2. Next, you are asked a question, such as:

  What do you think is the way to achieve success in life?

  3. Then, you’re given instructions, such as:

  Your task is to plan and write an essay in response to the question. You should state your position on the issue and develop your point of view. Using examples from your reading, your own experiences and observations, your studies, or current events, support your position with evidence and examples.

  Approach to the Essay: Writing

  Spend 16 to 18 minutes writing the essay.

  State Your Thesis Clearly in the Introductory Paragraph

  Having an original opening paragraph, one that will grab the attention of your reader, is always an advantage.

  However, in a timed writing, you don’t need a long introductory paragraph. Get to the point quickly, so you have time to develop your argument. Make sure you establish your position and set up the development of examples.

  Develop Your Examples

  In the topic sentence of your first body paragraph, state the example or reason that you’ll develop. Then explain the example or reason so the reader understands why it supports your thesis. Try to give specific details. If you’re using a personal experience, use sensory details: What did you see? How did you feel? Were there sounds, smells, or tastes involved? If you’re using a historical example, describe the time period, the specific events—the more names, dates, and places that prove your point, the more effective your evidence.

  If your knowledge is sketchy, choose a better example. Don’t write about Mother Teresa unless you know a lot about her.

  Organize Coherently

  As you develop your examples, be sure to use transitional phrases. Transitional words and phrases link ideas and indicate the relationship of ideas within a sentence, a paragraph, or a passage. They are essential tools for a writer who wants to achieve a clear and logical flow of ideas. (See the following table for examples of transitional words and phrases.)

  以上就是对SAT作文考试形式的分析,和对SAT写作策略也有介绍,主要是针对写作的结构和内容的安排,虽然是英文版的,但是很容易看得懂。大家可以在备考自己的SAT写作考试的时候,对此加以适当的借鉴和练习。
