改革后的SAT考试更多的趋向于ACT的考试形式,而之前就有说SAT考试改革一方面是迫于ACT考试的压力而进行改革的,改革后的SAT语法以文章为载体,考察学生阅读和语法改正的能力,同时增加了图表分析题,改革后题型与现行ACT的文章改错非常相似。新SAT语法与ACT语法到底有什么不同?下面考而思在线针对这两者考试的概况,文体、考察内容、考点这几个方面进行比较。

新SAT语法与ACT语法到底有什么不同?

一、ACT语法题型(English)

ACT语法部分:

Number of Passage:5篇不同风格的文章,主要是人文类

Number of Questions:75道四选一题 Time:45分钟 Requirement:15分钟 读一篇文章,大致30秒一道题(量比较大,对阅读速度是有要求的)满分36,全美平均分21,牛分33-35分

题型比重细分:

标点符号10题,占15%。考的挺细的,不光有标准的标点符号用法,还考避免使用标点符号造成歧义的用法,细到hyphen的两种用法都考过。

[1]Kingman was keenly interested in landscape painting from an early age.

[2]In Hong Kong,where Kingman completed his schooling,teachers at that time customarily assigned students a formal“school name.”

[3]His interest was so keen,in fact,that he was named after it.

[4]The young boy who had been called DongMoy Shu became Dong Kingman.

[5]The name Kingman was selected for its two 2parts,“king”and“man”;Cantonese for“scenery”and“composition.”

[6]As Kingman developed as a painter,his works were often compared to 3 paintings by Chinese landscape artists dating back to CE 960,a time when a strong tradition of landscape painting emerged in Chinese art.

[7]Kingman,however,4vacated from that tradition in a number of ways,most notably in that he chose to focus not on natural landscape,such as mountains and rivers,but on cities.

考察内容包括:

标点符号punctuation,语法,用法grammar and usage,句子结构sentence structure;修辞(手法,文章结构,风格)rhetorical skills(strategy,organization,and style)

A.NO CHANGE

B.parts:“king”and“man,”

C.parts“king”and“man”;

D.parts;“king”and“man”

Key:B考点:标点符号(冒号、逗号、分号)语法/用法12题,占20%。ACT要考时态的结构和用法。

句子结构18题,占25%。老美最爱的修饰语错位,平行结构等。

The facts about bats are more interesting than the falsehoods.A.NO CHANGE B.of more interest then C.the most interesting than D.more interesting then ACT English中几乎不考比较结构的可比性问题,偶尔会考查比较结构的标志词。

修辞部分-strategy 12题,占20%。Identify author's purpose,tone,main point,theme,etc.主要是对整篇的理解。

6 His fine brush work conveys detailed street-level activity:a peanut vendor pushing his cart on the sidewalk,a pigeon pecking for crumbs around a fire hydrant,an old man tending to a baby outside a door way.

His broader brushstrokes and sponge-painted shapes create majestic city skylines,with skyscrapers towering in the background,bridges connecting neighborhoods on either side of a river,and enormous ships maneuvering out of a busy harbor.To art critics and fans alike,these city scenes represent the innovative spirit of twentieth-century urban Modernism.

6.Which choice most effectively established the main topic of the paragraph?

A.Kingman is considered a pioneer of the California Style school of painting.

B.Although cities were his main subject,Kingman did occasionally paint natural landscapes.

C.In his urban landscapes,Kingman capture the vibrancy of crowed cities.

D.In 1929 Kingman moved to Oakland,California,where he attended the Fox Art School.

Key:C考点:段落主旨

题目分析:

此题考查对段落主旨的总结,此段主要Kingman笔下的urban landscapes,从street-level activity、majestic city skylines的角度具体描述Kingman对城市的刻画,C选项符合要求。A选项:是对Kingman的绘画风格的,与本段对城市景象的描述无关;B选项的natural landscapes,直接排除;D选项,无关。修辞部分-Organization 11题,占15%。文章的起承转合。

5.For the sake of cohesion of this paragraph,sentence 3 should be placed

A.where it is now.

B.before sentence 1.

C.after sentence 1.

D.after sentence 4.

Key:C考点:文章结构——句子位置

题目分析:

此题考查Sentence 3的具体位置,从此段看,Sentence 1:Kingman was keenly interested in landscape painting from an early age.

关键词:keenly、interested。Sentence3:His interest was so keen,与Sentence1衔接非常紧密,C选项正确。

A选项:扰乱了Sentence2(描述school names)与sentence 4(表明Dong Kingman是Dong Moy Shu的school name)的联系;

B选项错误,根据句意,Sentence 3在Sentence 1后面;

D选项:扰乱了Sentence 4(Dong Moy Shu的school name是Dong Kingman)与Sentence 5(解释Dong Kingman这个名字的两部分意思)的紧密关系。

修辞部分--Style 12题,占20%。措辞,句式。

拼写(spelling)和词汇(vocabulary)

Perhaps the celebration of New Year’s Day in Korean culture is heightened because it is thought of as everyone’s birthday party.

A.NO CHANGE

B.raised

C.lifted

D.lighted ACT English会有单词的考题,但考的并不频繁,一套题75道,平均1-2道单词题,且考查的单词都比较基础,几乎都在托福单词范围内,如illusion与allusion。

二、新SAT语法题型

新SAT一共分成四个部分,阅读+语法,数学及选考的写作,其中阅读(Reading)和语法(Writing and Language)在一起评分,共800分,数学另外评分800分,加起来必须要考的是1600分,写作选考,单另计分。语法部分在整个SAT的第二个部分,用时35分钟,共四篇文章,每篇文章包括11道题目。整个语法部分44道题目。语法文章在左,题目在右,题目对应着文章的位置。每题4个选项。第一个和原文一样。可以看一下截图。

新SAT语法与ACT语法到底有什么不同?

语法部分的文体:基本包括议论文,说明文,非小说的记叙文,题材包括:历史,社科,人类学,职业生涯类。语法部分考察内容:

1.最最基本的语法内容,这些内容基本涉及写作中用到的细节。

小到固定搭配,时态,平行,主谓一致,大到句子结构。另外和老SAT不一样的是,新的SAT注重标点符号的考察。所以这种题型基本是需要对单词,句子进行改动。这种考点上课之前因为很多学生对于考点还不大清楚,但是基本上完课程之后就能完全不错。

2.语境词汇。

这个考点的考察基本就是ACT照搬过来的,根据上下文的语境找出最适合的单词,这种题目基本做到最后容易有问题的,因为考察学生平时对于一些动词形容词的精确理解,不能只是单调的记忆一个单词的字面意思,更多的需要从大量的阅读中积累意思。

3.句子段落结构,篇章大意。

句子结构包括插入题,删除题,句子重组题,需要对上下文和上下段,甚至部分题目需要对整篇文章有很精确的理解,知道每段的意思重点同时也考察学生短时间之内扫读的能力。

4.写作手法。

个别的题目会考察一些作者为什么写这一段内容,如果想表达哪种思维用哪种选项更好,所以需要学生从编辑和作者的角度审视文章,给出一个文人翁的写作角度。

5.证据寻找。

SAT新加的一种题目,图表题,需要从图表上迅速准确的找到对应的选项信息,不过目前来看题目总体难度不大。基本细心一些都能找到。

新SAT考点归纳:

新SAT语法与ACT语法到底有什么不同?

新SAT语法与ACT语法到底有什么不同?整体而言,新SAT与ACT有许多的相似性。新SAT比ACT多的题型是;句子合并题,图表题(科学类文章);新SAT一套题目平均有四道词汇题,而ACT平均一套是1-2题。学生选哪门考试取决于学生对于理科是否抗拒(ACT),以及学生讲究的是速读能力,瞬间记忆能力还是阅读深度(SAT)。
