SAT考试Writing Section中的Essay,不像TOEFL/GRE那样有官方题库提供。所以,收集了一些SAT作文题目和范文基本上也是一个考生有能力准备的数量 SAT作文题目由两部分组成,1) Issue;2) Assignment。例如: Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below. Nowadays nothing is private: our culture has become too confessional and self-expressive. People think that to hide ones thoughts or feelings is to pretend not to have those thoughts or feelings. They assume that honesty requires one to express every inclination and impulse. Adapted from J. David Velleman, The Genesis of Shame Assignment: Should people make more of an effort to keep some things private? Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observations. SAT作文就是要回答Assignment中的问题,在这道题目中就是Should people make more of an effort to keep some things private?。而Issue的作用是给考生提供理解Assignment的线索。在Assignment中,keep some things private之中的some things指的究竟是什么?根据Issue中的文字,考生可以确定Some things包括thoughts、feelings、inclination、impulse等等。 |
