2024年一共将举行7次SAT机考,3月9日即将开始2024第一场SAT考试!同学们要抓紧冲刺复习咯~
上一次我们梳理了 SAT 语法的标点符号&语法点知识 ,本期继续讲讲语法技巧和应对常考的知识点,供大家学习参考,抓住细节才可以拿高分哦!
机考的SAT语法题考的题型不多,语法题整体要比阅读简单,在自适应的考试中如果前面的阅读时间稍微多用了一些,那么后面的题即使简单有可能没有足够的时间做完。今天来给大家分享几个语法技巧,从语法知识,错误选项,以及语义逻辑去如何很快能确定正确答案,为大家节省宝贵的考试时间。
我们就拿一些常考的知识点以及题来解析,大家可以试着做一遍题~
In 1937, Chinese American screen actor Anna May Wong, who had portrayed numerous villains and secondary characters but never a heroine, finally got a starring role in Paramount Pictures’Daughter of Shanghai, a film that ______ “expanded the range of possibilities for Asian images on screen.”
Which choice completes the text so that it conforms to the conventions of Standard English?
A.critic, Stina Chyn, claims
B.critic, Stina Chyn, claims,
C.critic Stina Chyn claims
D.critic Stina Chyn, claims,
这个题是官方的一道样题,在正式考试中也曾经出现过类似的考题,如果从技巧层面看的话,我们就不去看题目或者阅读文本了,直接看四个选项基本知道是在考title 和人名之间需不需要用标点,另外一个考点是主语或者说这个人名和后面的动词 claims 之间要不要标点符号。一个技巧是title(职业)和人名是不需要标点符号,所以AB 排除另外主语和谓语之间也不需要标点符号D也不对。
正确答案是C。
看另一个相似的题☟
Known for her massive photorealistic paintings of African American figures floating or swimming in pools, Calida Garcia ______ was the logical choice to design the book cover for Ta-Nehisi Coates’sThe Water Dancer, a novel about an African American man who can travel great distances through water.
Which choice completes the text so that it conforms to the conventions of Standard English?
A.Rawles—
B.Rawles:
C.Rawles,
D.Rawles
如果有了第一个题的知识点我们就知道这道题后上道题考察的知识点都是一样 主谓语之间不需要标点符号。because no punctuation is needed between the subject and the verb.
在主谓之间有标点符号的是ABC, 所以正确答案是D。
以上的一个知识点请记住:职业和人名,主语和谓语之间不需要标点符号。
The Arctic-Alpine Botanic Garden in Norway and the Jardim Botânico of Rio de Janeiro in Brazil are two of many botanical gardens around the world dedicated togrowing diverse plant ______ fostering scientific research; and educating the public about plant conservation.
Which choice completes the text so that it conforms to the conventions of Standard English?
A.species, both native and nonnative,
B.species, both native and nonnative;
C.species; both native and nonnative,
D.species both native and nonnative,
这道题我们从题干看有个分号,分号之后and 加一个短语,考的是并列。然后从后向前看我们能得出三个并列:growing diverse plant ______ fostering scientific research; and educating the public about plant conservation.
三个并列用分号属于复杂的并列,而且又用到逗号,属于碰到逗号的题要特别注意。 三个并列用分号隔开,前面已经有一个分号了,那么第一个分号的位置就是特别关键,三个items都是以ing 形式并列的,顺序分别是 growing,fostering ,educating,所以紧挨着fostering 前面就是一个分号,符合这个选项的只有B.
语法题里涉及到用分号是属于比较有难度的题目,在碰到此类题,要看看三个并列,一般都是两个并列的items 已经告诉了,剩下一个涉及到要用逗号和分号。那我们只看三个统一的并列格式要保持一致也可以做对。
第三个技巧 ,being ,to be ,to have been 他们不是动词,不能做谓语,这三个词在SAT中几乎不会是正确答案。
A model created by biologist Luis Valente predicts that the rate of speciation—the rate at which new species form—on an isolated island located approximately 5,000 kilometers from the nearest mainland ______ triple the rate of speciation on an island only 500 kilometers from the mainland.
Which choice completes the text so that it conforms to the conventions of Standard English?
A.being
B.to be
C.to have been
D.will be
这道题不是很难,但是容易选错,我们看到主句predicts 后面需要稍微做一下分析。The rate of sepeciation 是主语,后面两个破折号之间的插入语可以不用管,直接看“on an isolated island located approximately 5,000 kilometers from the nearest mainland”它是很长的一个表示地点的状语,后面就是空格需要我们找要选的,主语有了,缺个谓语,这四个选项,只有will be 是谓语,其他都不是。为什么用will 将来时呢,因为在最前面有个主句的动词是predicts 这个词是用将来时的一个信号词。
以上是三种常见的题,技巧的运用需要有对知识的把握和一定题量的训练和总结。熟悉这些规则,并能灵活运用,不仅能在 SAT 中拿高分,也可以在写作口语中写出地道的英语!
