深度解读新SAT阅读官方样题三
<p> 在最新<span word="SAT">SAT</span>阅读官方样题中，我们通过从文章和题目两方面的深入解读，可以推断出官方在文章题材和文章内容方面求深求变的趋势，以及在问题方面更为注重文章结构和问题联系的特点。</p><p> 这篇文章就形式而言是之前<span word="SAT">SAT</span>考试中没有出现过的 本文带有图表。虽然形式比较新，但总体难度不大。如果说有困难，很大程度来自于对于这类带有大量数字的文章信息定位与详略读的问题。</p><p> 以第1题为例，问题问道： <span word="The">The</span> <span word="passage">passage</span> <span word="most">most</span> <span word="strongly">strongly</span> <span word="suggests">suggests</span> <span word="that">that</span> <span word="researchers">researchers</span> <span word="at">at</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="Martin">Martin</span> <span word="Prosperity">Prosperity</span> <span word="Institute">Institute</span> <span word="share">share</span> <span word="which">which</span> <span word="assumption">assumption</span>?</p><p> 通过题干中关键词 <span word="the">the</span> <span word="Martin">Martin</span> <span word="Prosperity">Prosperity</span> <span word="Institute">Institute</span> 定位，位于3段结尾部分第42行。所以，答案应该是位于该段之中。这一段中有大量的例子和数据，考生对于具体的事例和数据没有必要仔细阅读，而要看这些事例和数据所说明的观点。具体到第三段，分别用到了 <span word="In">In</span> <span word="Los">Los</span> <span word="Angeles">Angeles</span>,... <span word="In">In</span> <span word="D">D</span>.<span word="C">C</span>., . <span word="In">In</span> <span word="New">New</span> <span word="York">York</span> . 这些并列的部分跳读过。后面紧接着讲到平均的情况和总体的损失，提到了 <span word="lost">lost</span> <span word="productivity">productivity</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="wasted">wasted</span> <span word="fuel">fuel</span> 。既然交通拥堵会造成损失 <span word="productivity">productivity</span> ;反过来说，通勤时间减少之后，就能做 <span word="additional">additional</span> <span word="productive">productive</span> <span word="work">work</span> ，也就是<span word="B">B</span>的答案。</p><p> 再来看第二题，是词汇题。这题出得比较传统，依然是看词汇在上下文中的含义;而不会优先考虑常见意或本意。以此题为例， <span word="intense">intense</span> 所在句子中提到了 <span word="the">the</span> <span word="clustering">clustering</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="jobs">jobs</span>, <span word="innovation">innovation</span> ，还有 <span word="a">a</span> <span word="smaller">smaller</span> <span word="number">number</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="bigger">bigger</span> <span word="cities">cities</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="city">city</span>-<span word="regions">regions</span> (更少数量、但却规模更大的城市和城市区域)，根据这样的上下文，明显选项<span word="B">B</span>.<span word="concentrated">concentrated</span>(集中的)最符合。</p>
