短期內(nèi)提高SAT閱讀正確率的方法
想要在短時間內(nèi)提高SAT閱讀考試正確率需要兩方面的把握:文章定位內(nèi)容及題目錯誤選項的排除。
對于文章的把握,主要是針對定位區(qū)域的改寫、解釋、歸納,但往往定位關(guān)鍵區(qū)域是我們難以把握的;而錯誤選項則是基于定位區(qū)域,對于態(tài)度、極端詞、模棱兩可詞、隨意比較、明顯不對應選項等進行慎選。所以我們做題的順序是先排除明顯錯誤選項,然后圈定兩至三個選項,再根據(jù)文章關(guān)鍵點進行選擇。
選擇直觀項就是在第二步排除明顯錯誤選項特征之后需要甄別的。這里,要明確一個原則,擇優(yōu)選對原文最直觀的描述或者總結(jié)。不要對于某些貌似抽象的、不知所以然的選項有不明覺厲的感覺,在原文中沒有找到所指就要堅定地排除。
比如2011.5的真題,section 3,15題:
Lines 20-21 suggest which of the following about Delias reaction to the city?
A. She feels clanstrophobic in the city
B. She is put off by the citys many monuments
C. She sees an idealized version of the city
D. She enjoys the citys many educational opportunities
E. She is amazed by the sheer size of the city
原文20-21行,內(nèi)容是:The whole city is a postcard panorama. Like being inside a grade-school civics text.
讀完之后,不難得出原文定位區(qū)域所側(cè)重的內(nèi)容是city的環(huán)境描寫。那么,可以排除A clanstrophobic幽閉恐懼癥,D educational opportunities; 再回看原文,提到postcard,這是解題的關(guān)鍵點,此刻整個城市的全貌是明信片上的情景,大家聯(lián)系一下實際,明信片中城市的景象,應該是什么樣的呢?是對城市最佳面貌的特寫吧,再看選項,最直觀的dealized version of the city所體現(xiàn)。故選C。E項monument雖然是城市一景,文章未提及。E項側(cè)重的是城市規(guī)模,雖然所指有些抽象,但比較C直觀項,發(fā)現(xiàn)它也是偏的,擇優(yōu)C。
再來看一道題目,OG 973頁,11題:
Frederick Douglass rhetorical strategy as described in lines 4-10 might best be summarized as
A. Identification with a concept followed by partial rejection
B. Recognition of a groups wrongdoing followed by explicit steps to correct it
C. Elaboration on an unfamiliar argument followed by unusual qualifications
D. Evocation of a revered concept followed by a specific reference to its undermining
E. Analysis of a particular event followed by a subjective plea
原文4-10行,內(nèi)容是:Frederick Douglass, for example, firmly identified himself with the triumph of manliness and individualism that slavery suppressed. In so doing, he explicitly called upon his northern readers to recognize that the sufferings and inequities to which he had been subjected by the very condition of enslavement directly contravened their deepest principles of individualism.
先看選項,此題屬于抽象題。回看文章定位區(qū)域,第一句表面FD的主觀點:manliness and individualism;第二句,闡明他的做法:奴隸制違反了individualism所倡導的,帶來了惡果sufferings and inequities。也就是:觀點 違反。 根據(jù)這樣的內(nèi)容,在文章中找出最直觀的選項:
A 觀點 部分反對
B 錯誤做法 更正步驟
C 不熟論據(jù) 不尋常限制
D 崇敬的觀點 對其破壞
E 具體事件 主觀請求
所以相對應的是D。對于廢除奴隸制作者是持正態(tài)度。再進行一一對應的話,concept指manliness and individualism,undermining指contravened their deepest principles。現(xiàn)在,大家再看其他選項,就不會有不明覺厲的感覺了吧。
