SAT閱讀SPP策略
一.模式簡介:
SPP模式,即short pair passage, 雙篇短閱讀模式。我們首先要明確的是,這兩篇文章一定是有或多或少的聯系的,否則把他們放在一起就沒有任何意義。而將兩篇文章羅列在一起進行出題也是SAT考試的一大特色。
雙篇文章的閱讀主要考查考生對兩篇文章關系的理解。這種文章類型要求考生對兩篇相互關聯的短文章進行閱讀并作答。每篇文章后面有4-5個問題,字數限制在250-350字。這部分相對于前面的單篇閱讀難度有所提升。我們建議考生的答題時間為5-6分鐘。
二.做題策略:
在作答這種類型的文章題目時,考生可以直接讀原文而不需要先去看題目。因為這類文章主要考察的是兩篇文章的相互關系,不同點是什么,相同點是什么。把握住出題人的用心,考生上來直接讀題目,并探究兩篇文章的異同,就可以了。
具體步驟如下:
⑴ 簡單閱讀兩篇文章并作簡要筆記
在拿到試題后,考生可以直接對兩篇短文章進行閱讀。當然我們要有針對性,這樣才能節省時間并提高準度。在閱讀過程中,有三類句子我們需要特別關注:a. 文章開頭第一句;b. 文章最后一句;c. 文章中的轉折部分。
在閱讀過程中我們需要判斷兩篇文章的關系。兩篇文章可能是相反的關系,也可能是相互補充互相支持的關系,還有可能只有很松散的關系,即某些地方是有相互關系的。但是不管怎樣,兩篇文章都是平等的關系,都是各家之言,而無所謂對錯。
⑵ 迅速掃讀題干
在完成對文章的簡要閱讀后,我們開始對題干進行迅速掃讀。之前我們已經為大家介紹過了在這一步中我們要做哪些事情,即首先定位題型,再尋找定位詞等。這里不再贅述。
⑶ 審查選項
⑷ 做出選擇
三.邊練邊說
下面我們為大家選出一篇SAT 真題,以講解剛才提到的做題策略
The passage below are followed by questions based on their content; questions following a pair of related passage may also be based on the relationship between the paired passage ,Answer the questions on the basis of what is stated or implied in the passage and in any introductory material that may be provided
Questions 9-12 are based on the following passage
Passage 1
In a recent survey concerning plagiarism among scholars, two University of Alabama economists asked 1,200 of their colleagues if they believed their work had ever been stolen. A startling 40 percent answered yes. While not a random sample, the responses still represent hundreds of cases of alleged plagiarism. Very few of them will ever be dragged into the sunlight. Thats because academia often discourages victims form seeking justice, and when they do, tends to ignore their complaints. Its like cockroaches, says the author of a recent book about academic fraud. For every one you see on the floor, there are a hundred behind the stove
Passage 2
Words belong to the person who wrote them. There are few simpler ethical notions than this, particularly as society directs more and more energy toward the creation of intellectual property. In the past 30 years, copyright laws have been strengthened, fighting piracy has become an obsession with Hollywood, and, in the worlds of academia and publishing, plagiarism has gone from being bad literary manners to something close to a felony. When a noted historian was recently found to have lifted passages from other historians, she was asked to resign form the board of the Pulitzer Prize committee. And why not? If she had robbed a bank, she would have been fired the next day.
9. Both passages discuss which of the following?
Reactions to plagiarism committed by scholars
An increase in plagiarism by college professors
The impact that academic fraud can have on the communication of scholarly ideas
A major change in copyright laws that occurred within the past three decades
Recent and highly publicized cases of plagiarism
10. The author would likely argue that the historians having lifted passages from other historians is
a relatively harmless error
an example of academic collaboration
deserving of harsh punishment
far from an isolated incident
a comparatively recent problem
11. The author of Passage 2 would likely respond to the actions attributed to academia in lines8-9 in Passage 1 by asserting that
these actions are consistent with the approach common in publishing
academic plagiarism has usually been misrepresented in surveys
researchers should not be held accountable for inadvertent mistakes
universities increasingly amnesty to researchers serious offense
colleges should provide amnesty to researchers accused of plagiarism
12. Which best describes the relationship between the two passages?
Passage 1 advocates a strategy that Passage 2 considers outmoded
Passage 1 envisions an idealistic condition that Passage 2 finds impossible
Passage 1 provides a detached analysis to which Passage 2 responds with alarm
Passage 1 describes a state of affairs that Passage 2 views as inexcusable.
Passage 1 emphasizes the causes of a problem and Passage 2 emphasizes its effects.
