成功失敗類

SAT常把“成功”的概念定義為英雄、幸福、成就、專家等等，對于此類一定要找出共性，成功的要素非常多，可以是堅持不懈、勇敢堅韌、誠實可信，也可以是在逆境中奮發圖強；與此相對，失敗的因素也很多，可以是缺乏毅力、猶豫不決、拖延、魯莽等等。

1）Do you believe, with Michelangelo,that it is better to risk failing in the attempt to do something too ambitious, or to succeed at something you were already sure you could do? 接受挑戰還是做有把握的事情?

2）If you want to become an expert in a certain field , do you need to have more talent or more motivation? 成為專家需要更多的天分還是動機？

3）Do you agree with the idea that people can exercise control over their fear,or does fear control people?戰勝恐懼篇

4）It is true that the most memorable day of our lives re those in which we underwent some personal transformation or awakening? 追求理想真理類

抽象性的話題很受SAT的青睞，對于真理、真相和理想的追求，也經常被考到。

1）Do people have to be highly competitive in order to success?

2）Do you agree with Walter Cronkite that ir is necessary to see both sides of an issue in order todiscover the truth? 發現真理是否要看到事物的兩面

3）Are people motivated to achieve by personal satisfaction rather that by money or fame?

學習和知識類

學習類主題是SAT常考的話題，因為這跟我們同學們的生活最貼近，但與TOEFL具體的問題不同的是，SAT考題非常抽象，如：

1）Do you think that teaching something to another person can help you to learn or master a subject or process?

2）Do you believe that fantasy and imagination is more important than knowledge? 想象力比知識更重要？ 善惡美丑類

1）It is true that one can always find opportunity ,even in trouble?

2）Does weird behavior indicate an ordinary or an extraordinary persons?

3）Do you agree with the idea that the strong do what they wish?

4）It is true that there are no ugly things?

人生觀類（個人與他人、與社會的關系）

對于人生觀的理解，是SAT考察的另一個重點。如“who you are”“what is your choice”，個人是否需要了解自我來發展自我，個人是否需要經歷磨難，是否需要他人的幫助等等。

1）Do we ourselves cause changes in our lives by making certain decisions, or are we acted upon by events that happen around us?

2）Do you agree that it is important not to take things for granted? 世界觀類

1）Do you agree with the idea that war is never justified?

第一題：Should heroes be defined as people who say what they think when we ourselves lack the courage to say it? 英雄是否應該定義為這樣一種人：當我們缺乏勇氣表達自己內心想法的時候，他們卻勇于說出自己的真實想法？

解題：這道題算是比較簡單，同學們一般會聯想到的論據是馬丁·路德·金、甘地、曼德拉、哥白尼、伽利略、布魯諾、達爾文等等。由此，我們引出第一類論據：人物論據。實際上，人物論據是我們在解決SAT題目時使用最多的一類論據，大約可以應用于大約60%以上的題目。同學們在備考過程應該找3～5個名人，把他們研究透徹，用到文章里面去。這些名人應該具備以下一些品質：勇敢、堅強、樂觀、追求卓越、百折不撓、逆境成才、勇于挑戰權威、積極服務他人等等。

第二題：Do you think that ease does not challenge us and that we need adversity to help us discover who we are? 順境不足以挑戰我們，我們需要逆境來了解自己，是否同意？

解題：人物論據。

第三題：Is conscience a more powerful motivator than money, fame, or power? 良知是不是一種比金錢、榮譽、權利更為強大的驅動力？

解題：人物論據。

第四題：Do we need other people in order to understand ourselves? 我們是否需要他人以了解自己？

解題：此題引出兩類論據：

一、個人經歷；

二、企業論據。個人經歷比較簡單，寫一個發生在自己身上或身邊的故事即可。企業論據可以寫企業通過觀察競爭對手，發現自己身上存在的不足。比如肯德基和麥當勞，諾基亞和索尼愛立信，波音和空中客車等等。

第五題：Is the world changing for the better? 世界是不是越來越好？

解題：此題引出兩類論據：

一、科技發展的好處；

二、科技發展的壞處，主要體現在環境污染方面。科技發展的好處很多，可以寫醫學的進步延長壽命、農業的進步養活人口、家用電器方便人類生活。環境污染可以分類展開：水污染、大氣污染、土壤污染、噪音污染、固體廢物污染，等等。

第六題：Can success be disastrous? 成功會不會帶來災難？

解題：同上題。如果寫不會帶來災難，則寫科技發展的好處。如果寫會帶來災難，則寫科技進步導致環境污染。

第七題：Do changes that make our lives easier not necessarily make them better? 讓我們生活變得更加簡單的那些變化，是否讓我們的生活變得更好？

解題：同上題。寫科技發展的好處，或者寫科技發展造成環境污染。

第八題：Is there always another explanation or another point of view? 是不是總存在另外一種觀點？

解題：同意。科技進步的確方便了我們的生活；但是從一個角度來看，也污染了我們的生存環境。

第九題：What motivates people to change? 什么促使人們改變？

解題：這類題目要求考生自主定義。我們戲稱之為“爽歪歪”題型，原因是只要把我們之前寫過的題目中的關鍵詞填在這里就可以了。比如說，如果我們寫過第一題，我們就可以說Courage motivates people to change.如果我們寫過第二題，我們就可以說Adversity motivates people to change.同理，如果我們寫過第三題，我們就可以說Conscience motivates people to change.（或者Money, fame and power motivate people to change.）

第十題：Is deception ever justified? 謊言是否正確？

解題：這道題除了可以寫自己生活中的謊言，也可以來自于文學作品和戰爭歷史中的White Lie（善意的謊言）。比如，《了不起的蓋茨比》中的男主人公，為了獲得真愛，不得不欺騙自己的愛人。再比如，南北戰爭中，南方軍隊為了保存實力、避免傷亡，利用戰術蒙騙了北方軍隊。我們可以寫謊言不好，比如結合時事，有些企業欺騙消費者，由此帶來巨大傷害。

第四篇：SAT作文題目類型總結

SAT作文題目類型總結 來源：吾愛視頻教程網 http://

怎樣準備sat寫作：

1，把題目分類：本人大概分了這幾類：親人篇，朋友篇，失敗篇(成功篇，這兩個可以互相轉化，具體見下文)，追求理想篇(比如你是追求金錢和名利還是do what you want),善惡美丑篇，素質道德篇，生活篇等等等——大家可以按照喜歡的方式分~

以下是本人手頭上的題(offcial guide的8個寫作里面我留了4個給我自己練習用，就不公布了~)

Directions就不打了直接打assignment

Does weird behavior indicate an ordinary or an extraordinary person?

善惡美丑篇，也可以使變化篇。因為善惡美丑可以互相轉化~

It is true that one can always find opportunity ,even in trouble?

失敗成功篇

Do you believe, with Michelangelo,that it is better to risk failing in the attempt to do

something too ambitious, or to succeed at something you were already sure you could do?

接受挑戰還是做有把握的事情?追求理想篇

Do you agree with the idea that the strong do what they wish?

善惡美丑篇，如果很強大但是缺乏正義感的話，就xxxxxx

It is true that there are no ugly things?

善惡美丑篇，Do you agree with the idea that people can exercise control over their fear,or does fear control

people?

成功篇，戰勝恐懼

Do you agree with the idea that war is never justified?

Brave heart------for freedom and justice~

What do you think of the view that the worst sorrows are those for which we are responsible?

敗篇

Do you agree that it is important not to take things for granted?

成功篇

It is true that the most memorable day of our lives re those in which we underwent some personal

transformation or awakening?

成功篇——見下文

Are people motivated to achieve by personal satisfaction rather that by money or fame?

追求理想篇~

Do people have to be highly competitive in order to success?

素質篇

What motivates people to change?

什么是人改變?競爭唄

Do changes that make our lives easier not nessarily make them better?

生活篇，關于變化的題目好多阿~

Is conscience a more powerful motivator than money?

素質篇

Can success be disastrous?

成功失敗篇

其實很多題目都可以用相同的例子，比如說Thomas Edison had over 1000 “failures”before he fanally succeeded in inventing the electric bulb~非常通用~類似的例子還有很多，希望有機會大家共享一下!~

雖然這些偉人的例子很有說服力，畢竟生硬死板了些。本人建議使用自己經歷過的事例(或者曾經在夢中經歷過。)

第五篇：SAT寫作技巧[定稿]

內容摘要：SAT作文是SAT考試中永遠放在第一個section考察的the 25-minute essay。在你開始寫第一篇作文之前，請你務必仔細閱讀CB的the Offical SAT Study Guide中的相關章節。只有它，才能為你指明真正的備考方向。SAT作文如何取得高分呢？我們一同來分享一下SAT寫作三步致勝法則吧。

出題特點

首先，我們來關注一下SAT寫作考試的出題形式。一般來說，SAT作文題目由Prompt(背景)+ Assignment(任務，題目)這兩部分組成。Prompt是給考生提供理解Assignment的線索，而Assignment中的問題則是在作文中要回答的。

由于SAT是針對高中生升大學的考試，因此寫作話題不需要具備單項的專業背景知識，但話題涉及范圍卻非常廣泛，包括文學、藝術、運動、政治、技 術、科學、歷史及時事。值得學生注意的是，SAT的Official Guide中清楚地說明了 The essay readers are not looking for one correct viewpoint。

所以有些考生企圖竭力 尋找一個觀點，借此討好閱卷老師，這種做法是沒有意義，也是浪費時間的。你選擇什么樣的立場其實并不重要，重要的是你能否做到運用簡潔清晰恰當的例子，推理論證你持有的觀點。

考查重點

SAT作文主要考察的是考生在一定時間內就某個特定話題給出觀點并用各種具體論證手段加以支持分析的能力，不要偏題是基本要求。

我們可以看出SAT寫作與其他留學寫作考試(如新托福)的定位非常不同。新托福是語言能力測試，而SAT作為入學考試，更注重考察一個學生的邏輯推理能力，要求學生的論證嚴密、有效、有力。因此不建議考生把TOEFL寫作的那套東西搬來用于SAT寫作上，想取得高分必須區別復習。時間分配

SAT作文考試是為時25分鐘的限時寫作，但作文的字數沒有硬性規定。有些考生疑惑究竟應該寫多長?

如果我們參照官方提供的樣卷，會發現6分的作文需填滿一頁半A4紙，基本等同于400字數。在短短25分鐘內，要圍繞一個題目寫一篇不少于400字的有水平的essay，對于母語非英語，特別是沒接受過大學英語教育的考生來說是很有難度的。

如何合理分配25分鐘?有些考生第一個section開始10分鐘后還在思考，也有考生到了最后時刻還沒收尾。

建議考生采用三步走的方法：

1.讀題構思寫綱要：

保持在2-4分鐘，最多不要超過5分鐘。一定要仔細耐心地讀清楚prompt和assign-ment，構思時最好簡單記下你想表達的中心思想和打算使用的例子，選2-3個例子為宜，并且想好如何把文章有邏輯地“串”起來。

2.書寫作文：

真正的寫作時間有一刻鐘左右。按照構思的規劃作文，同時關注詞匯和句型的多樣性，避免用詞不當。

3.復查：

保持在4分鐘左右。寫完初稿后，建議至少留2分鐘復讀一遍。這個環節非常重要，一定不能省掉。首先通讀，檢查觀點陳述是否清晰、論據是否直接證 明論點、論據是否有效效展開、論據過渡是否順暢、句子表達是否清楚等。之后再花少部分時間來檢查語法，著重注意一下時態、主謂一致、代詞使用和標點符號等。
