SAT考试前最重要的是SAT备考,SAT写作尤其需要重视,在备考中,除了积累词句和语法之外,掌握好自己的风格才是更加重要的步骤,下面我们来说说如何提升自己的写作水平,形成自己的写作风格。
01. 风格正式
风格正式是sat写作中大家需要注意的第一条。关于这项要求我们需要做到的最重要的一点就是一定要使用书面语,不能有口语化的表达。来看一下这个对Let There Be Dark文章的分析段落。
Bogard supports his claims about natural darkness’s underrated value by providing the reader with evidence of health problems that the opposite replacement, artificial light, can cause. “Our bodies need darkness to produce the hormone melatonin, which keeps certain cancers from developing.” Oh, no! Not cancer! Right there is a quick attention grabber to any reader previously bored by Bogard’s constant opinions because now there are facts, and a fact relating to the reader is the best persuasion, especially when it relates to there health or well-being. Cancer, because who wants a terminal illness over an action as simple as flipping a switch on a night light when it’s too dark for your comfort?
这段文字里面在引用之后用到的“Oh, no! Not cancer! ”“Right there”包括最后一句话“Cancer, because who wants a terminal illness over an action as simple as flipping a switch on a night light when it’s too dark for your?”从用词到句式都非常口语化,非常不符合SAT写作的要求,自然也不会得到考官的青睐。这篇文章的整体得分是444,也就是12分。
02. 语气客观
语气客观这一条大家需要做到的第一点是避免主观表达,文章中不要出现I think, I believe, I support等表示个人看法的词句。要记住SAT作文assignment(作文后面方框)的要求:“Your essay should not explain whether you agree with the board’s claims, but rather explain how the board builds an argument to persuade its audience.”我们要站在一个评论者的角度去分析作者是如何运用手法去技巧去说服他的读者接受自己的观点,因此句子的主语应该以作者、读者、手法为主,避免出现“我”。

第二点是避免绝对的分析和说法。由于SAT写作要我们去找出一篇文章比较突出的手法,结合原文去分析它们是如何有效证明了作者的观点,说到底就是有理有据的地夸赞,类似语文现代文阅读里的题目。因此,有的同学就索性一夸到底,说的很绝对。比如像这样“This strategy is persuasive and all readers will definitely agree with the author.”这是不行的,因为我们无法准确判断文章中手法对于读者的影响,因此需要使用推测性的表述。比如上面的句子改为“this strategy is persuasive and readers will be more likely agree with the author.”就比较合适了。
03. 具体充分
所谓具体充分就是我们的语言表达中不能包含解释不清或者不做解释的词句。要么不提,要么说清楚。以下段文字为例:
By using a personal story Bogard allows his audience to connect to him. If hisaudience can relate or even understand his story they will be more willing to agree with him. The personal story also shows that the issue of preserving natural darkness isn’t just another topic to write about but something that he is actually passionate for. In his personal story Bogard uses great imagery making the audience picture what he saw and maybe make them want to experience it too.
本段依然是对Let There Be Dark文章的分析段落,本段分析的手法是personal story,这一点很明确。但是纵观整段,直到分析结束,也没有说清楚story的具体内容是怎样,读这段的人不能知晓personal story的具体指代,自然也无法理解分析的内容,这就是典型的不具体不充分。
