SAT文章阅读考试的答题原则

随着人们经济水平的提高，对于很多家庭来说，留学不再是一个可望而不可及的事情，许多人都想要留学，那其中SAT文章阅读考试的答题原则？针对这个问题，下面中国教育在线小编就来和大家分享一下。

SAT文章阅读考试的答题原则

第一、 公平性原则

SAT考试不仅针对美国国内考生，同时还会有世界各地的考生参加考试。因此，为了保证试卷在地域特征上不存在差别，阅读文章内容主要涉及北美地区的内容，即北美的历史、地理、文化等(还会有部分欧洲历史)。

其次，不管考生将来想涉足哪个领域，无论是地理、物理、化学、数学、经济、文学、历史、教育等，都要参加SAT考试，因此，为了保证所有考生都有一个共同的知识平台，SAT阅读考试答题不要求任何专业背景知识，所有答案都可以从文章中寻得答案。

换句话说，如果答题需要背会元素周期表，那么SAT考试对非化学专业的考生就是一种不公平。

第二、 公正性原则

SAT考试是教育体制下的一个选拔工具。因此，它会积极宣扬正面的东西，具体而言，就是会保护弱势群体(女人、少数民族等)。凡是涉及到此的文章，作者都会对它的态度都是健康、积极的。

SAT考试也是学术类考试。为了满足其学术特征，文章作者在写作过程中不会采取过激的态度、模糊的态度等。

第三、 严谨性原则

SAT文章答案完全来自文章本身，不需要任何专业背景知识，但是需要一定的生活常识。同时，做题的时候强调的是严格的线性逻辑思维推理能力，而不是模糊思维方式和发散式思维方式。

主动被动/代词要翻译/时态

小词不应该被忽略(形容词和副词)

添加和减少

第四、 重复性原则

主要是文章取材重复、词汇重复、题型重复。

Explanation

1.The correct answer is E

While “ominous” comes closest to conveying threat, “traumatic” makes some sense; only “breach,” however, fits logically in the first blank

2.The correct answer is A

It makes sense to say that someone who is typically “genial,” or friendly, would turn “surly,” or irritable, when provoked.

3.The correct answer is C

Choice (C) is correct. Something that is "enervating" causes a lessening of vitality and strength.

4.The correct answer is B

The first missing term must characterize the manager’s response to a drop in sales that shes sees as a result of her department’s “lack of effort.” It is logical to conclude that the store manager “upbraided,” or scolded, her employees out of indignance, or righteous anger.

5.The correct answer is A

Try filling in the blank without reading the answer choices. What kinds of words would fit? Words like complete, thorough, or extensive could all fit. Now look at the answer choices. “Comprehensive” is very similar to the words suggested, and none of the other choices fits at all.

6.The correct answer is D

A “veteran,” or seasoned, actor should be able to carry himself with “ gravitas,” or seriousness. A serious performer, in turn, is capable of playing a variety of roles with “ dignity,” or a seriousness of manner.

7.The correct answer is A

Choice (A) is correct. It makes sense that the senator, in light of his and his colleague’s shared history of non-cooperation, would consider the colleague’s assurances “fatuous,” or complacently foolish.

8.The correct answer is A

The keys to this sentence are the word “Despite,” the words “human in scale,” and the words “not remote and larger than life.” The word filling the first blank has to be one that would relate closely to something that seems “larger than life.” The word filling the second blank has to fit with “human in scale.” If you focus on just one of the two blanks, you will be able to eliminate several choices before you even think about the other blank.

9.The correct answer is B

Choice (B) is correct. An “autodidact” is a person who is self-taught, as the CEO clearly is.
