SAT作文滿分攻略
中文作文就很難寫了,還要寫英文作文?!
只有二十五分鐘的時間,到底要怎麼寫出滿分六分的文章!!
【透徹理解SAT作文要求】
所謂「知己知彼,百戰百勝」,SAT作文亦是如此。考作文前你需要做何準備?是誰為你的作文評分?四分與五分的差別在哪裡,五分與六分的評分標準區別在何處?是否一定要使用印刷體寫作文?透徹理解SAT作文要求,是你邁向成功的第一步。
【充實你的例證素材庫】
隨時為各種題目做好「戰前」準備,當然,你還需要知道怎樣才可以「打動」讀者──你的評分人。紀伯倫說過:「如果你要寫作,必須要有知識、藝術和魔術。」具體到SAT,知識便指你的例證素材(或言,你平時對閱讀知識的積累);藝術指你的語言魅力;魔術,則是熱愛你的讀者和如何打動你的讀者的技巧和力量。
【合理分配時間】
如何確保自己在二十五分鐘內完成命題作文,是困擾很多學生的一個問題。對寫作步驟──審題、搜索例證、文章架構、正式寫作和修正──詳細分解、習並熟悉,可以有效分配和利用時間。考試當天,自然會得心應手。
【關鍵在於論證】
獲取SAT高分成績的關鍵在於論證。充分的論證素材,可以為論點提供強有力的事實依據。論點是否站得住腳,全靠論證做支撐。然而,如此重要的作文構成部分,恰恰是很多考生寫作中最薄弱的一個環節。面對題目,很多人往往有做「無米之炊」之感,立場確定了,觀點明確了,但是,用什麼論證素材來支持自己的觀點呢?
