名師講解SAT高分作文技巧
The College Board said, the reason so few students won top marks on the writing section is that so few - less than one percent - got sixes from both readers, for that perfect 12----NY Times ,Nov. 29th, 2009 紐約時報的這個評價,貌似給很多考生頭上都潑了一桶冷水。全美國不到百分之一的滿分率讓是讓以拿滿分為目標的中國學生很難接受的。但是從另一個角度思考一 下,你會發現,其實再合理不過了。在上千萬的高考學生中,有多少人又能從閱卷老師手中拿到語文作文的滿分呢?所以,如果可以拿到10分,已經是很給力了。
難拿,不代表拿不到。而中國學生總要為此而奮斗一番,把那看似不可能的,變成可能。下面我們就來看看怎樣可以達到閱卷老師滿分的標準:
上面這個圖標是我總結出的官方指南的評分標準,主要是從總體,內容,結構,語言和語法幾個方面評判。內容,語法和語言尤為重要。
這次我們主要來看在內容上如何突破:6分,5分和4分的作文都要求有critical thinking。這個是美國人思想的核心,也是整個SAT考試的精髓。所謂的批判性思維實際上就是摔倒-爬起來-成長的過程。也就是說在文章中 一定要體現出如何在所犯的錯誤中吸取到養分,并且利用學到的東西改變自己的生命。接下來我們拿一篇滿分作文來分析一下:
Without our past, our future would be a tortuous path leading to nowhere.

This past year, I was auditioning for the fall play, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. To my detriment I thought it would be a good idea to watch the movie in order to prepare. For two hours I studied Elizabeth Taylors mannerisms, attitude, and diction, hoping I could mimic her performance. I auditioned for the part of Maggie feeling perfectly confident in my portrayal of Elizabeth Taylor, however, I was unaware that my director saw exactly what I had been thinking. Unfortunately, I didnt get the part, and my director told me that he needed to see Maggie from my perspective, not Elizabeth Taylors.
