改革后的新SAT在5月7日的亚洲考区进行了首场考试,这场牵动众多本申党的考试,究竟考了什么?和OG的难度相差几何?与可汗学院放出的考题究竟有何区别?为了给各位准备SAT考试的小朋友带来更为翔实的第一手信息,逐梦亲自参加了这场SAT考试,考试详情如下:
考试进行时7:00 从酒店出发前往考场 07:45 排队准备进入考场注意事项:查看自己所在的考区,教室,和具体考位座位号7:50-8:40:陆续进场听考官宣读考场规则 监考考官会blablabla念一番考试规则,带你一起在答题卡上填写考生信息,收掉你的手机(当然,考完会还给你的,无需紧张) 8:45-9:50 阅读考试65分钟,结束后休息10分钟 10:00-10:35:语法部分共35分钟,结束后不休息10:35-11:00:数学25分钟(不带计算机),结束后休息5分钟11:05-12:00:数学55分钟(带计算机)12:20-13:10 作文 试题回忆:Reading 篇章一: 文学一名为农场主工作的工人Nawabin,突然感触自己最好的年华竟然奉献在了这辛劳的工作上,而今年华老去,加上各种工伤,再也不能像年轻人一样骑着单车轻松愉快地穿梭于农场之间,深感忧伤,向农场主提出辞职。农场主念其多年付出,意欲挽留,愿满足其任何条件。工人Nawabin提出要换一辆拉风的摩托车。那年农场收成甚好,农场主当天心情不错,便满足了其愿望,给了他一辆Honda 70。这摩托车真是神一般的存在,工人Nawabin的地位从此开始提升,人家开始尊称他“蜀黍(Uncle)”,他现在可以去到更远的地方,做更多的事情,最重要的是,他有时间每晚与娇妻共度良宵。题目回忆:1. 主旨题:文章讲了一个什么故事2. 推断题:农场主对工人Nawabin的态度3. 细节题:工人Nawabin有了摩托车之后收获的最好好处是什么4. 目的题:原文某行到某行的主要目的是什么(原文是Nawabin向农场主表达自己对农场主的涛涛江水般的恩情,以及对自己年迈劳损,无力再侍奉主人的愧疚,其实不就是不想干了)5. 推断题:农场主为什么真的给了Nawabin摩托车?…… 文章二:社会科学(含图表)文章首先抛出问题:新闻是否是公共资源?既然是公共资源,但究其真正的决定权并不真实存在于大众。现在新闻真实和可信度越来越低,主要是因为编辑们为了新闻的点击量和阅览量,歪曲新闻事实,或者是传媒受到相关利益集团的压力,成为利益集团斗争的工具。最后引出新闻应该还原其本质:还原真实,中立而不偏袒。(文章图表反映的是从60年代到现代,人们对新闻媒体的信任度逐渐降低,从一开始的80%的信任度,直线下降到现在只有20%)。题目回忆:1. 主旨题:文章主要想说明什么2. 图表题:从图中的数据找答案…… 文章三:自然科学花的香味可以招蜂引蝶,进而促进后代的繁育,那为什么花朵不尽可能地让自己变得更香呢?科学家假设这是因为花朵增加自身香味的同时也会招来害虫,于是展开实验寻求答案。实验过程文章有详细讲解,包括如何人为地通过手段增加花朵香味,如何设置控制组(控制组有专门的科研助手一旦发现害虫就立马移走或消灭),结果表明,增加花香能招来更多的蜂蝶是毋庸置疑的(两组的招来的蜂蝶数量都增加了)。更重要是的,科研人员发现,控制组(有害虫就消灭或移走的哪一组)吸引的蜂蝶数量明显大于实验组(实验组没有人摘虫子)。这个发现证明,花香可以吸引蜂蝶,但同时也会吸引害虫,且蜂蝶是被害虫吓跑的,即使花儿再香,上面有虫子,蜂蝶就不(愿/敢)去招惹了。题目回忆1. 主旨题:文章描述了什么2. 目的题:文章对后一句话在文章当中起到了什么作用3. 细节题:文章中的第几行到第几行直接表明蜂蝶是其实是被害虫吓跑的..…… 篇章四: 历史政治类(对比阅读)Passage 1是林肯的一篇演讲稿(Address tothe young men of Lyceum Spring field),核心观点为法律神圣不可违背,虽然有些法律在某一特定时期、特定情形下有问题,但应该诉诸合法的途径去修正他,且在修正之前应该尽可能忍耐,否则社会就会失序,人类就是在践踏和摧毁祖先及后世的社稷及尊严;第二篇节选自Henry David Thoreau的Civil Disobedience,强调法律如果不公正或不合时宜,就需要立即反抗。1. 细节题:当有人质疑法律,认为不不合理,不公正时,林肯的观点是什么2. 求同题:关于Abolitionist(废奴主义者),两篇文章共同的观点是什么…… 篇章五:自然科学(含2图表)太阳能研究领域又出新进展,利用silicon(硅)制造太能反观板,除吸收太阳从上方照射过来的光热之外,还可以吸收地面反射回去的光和热,从而提高太阳能的利用效率,提高产能,降低成本。最后一段还指出目前的技术挑战,或者说瓶颈。(图1为目前各类发电方式产量的比较(类似),图二为使用该太能发电方法后,太阳能发电产能增长趋势以及美国平均的电能消耗水平,按此图表示,在2020年,太阳能发电产能就可以完全满足人民的需求)。1. 主旨题:文章的目的2. 细节题:反射板为什么可能吸收更多的太阳光热,进而更加高效3. 目的题:文章最后一段提高challenge,是为何用意4. 图表题2道(第一道题需要结合两张图的数据,第二题是根据图表判断趋势:在哪一年太阳能就可以完全满足需求) 附篇章四比较阅读passage2:Excerpt from Civil Disobedience by Henry DavidThoreau Unjust laws exist: shall we be content toobey them, or shall we endeavor to amend them, and obey them until we havesucceeded, or shall we transgress them at once? Men, generally, under such agovernment as this, think that they ought to wait until they have persuaded themajority to alter them. They think that, if they should resist, the remedywould be worse than the evil. But it is the fault of the government itself thatthe remedy is worse than the evil. It makes it worse. Why is it not more apt toanticipate and provide for reform? Why does it not cherish its wise minority?Why does it cry and resist before it is hurt? Why does it not encourage itscitizens to put out its faults, and do better than it would have them? Why doesit always crucify Christ and excommunicate Copernicus and Luther, and pronounceWashington and Franklin rebels?One would think, that a deliberate andpractical denial of its authority was the only offense never contemplated byits government; else, why has it not assigned its definite, its suitable andproportionate, penalty? If a man who has no property refuses but once to earnnine shillings for the State, he is put in prison for a period unlimited by anylaw that I know, and determined only by the discretion of those who put himthere; but if he should steal ninety times nine shillings from the State, he issoon permitted to go at large again.If the injustice is part of the necessaryfriction of the machine of government, let it go, let it go: perchance it willwear smooth—certainly the machine will wear out. If the injustice has a spring,or a pulley, or a rope, or a crank, exclusively for itself, then perhaps youmay consider whether the remedy will not be worse than the evil; but if it isof such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice to another,then I say, break the law. Let your life be a counter-friction to stop themachine. What I have to do is to see, at any rate, that I do not lend myself tothe wrong which I condemn.As for adopting the ways of the State hasprovided for remedying the evil, I know not of such ways. They take too muchtime, and a man's life will be gone. I have other affairs to attend to. I cameinto this world, not chiefly to make this a good place to live in, but to livein it, be it good or bad. A man has not everything to do, but something; andbecause he cannot do everything, it is not necessary that he should bepetitioning the Governor or the Legislature any more than it is theirs topetition me; and if they should not hear my petition, what should I do then?But in this case the State has provided no way: its very Constitution is theevil. This may seem to be harsh and stubborn and unconcilliatory; but it is totreat with the utmost kindness and consideration the only spirit that canappreciate or deserves it. So is all change for the better, like birth and death,which convulse the body.I do not hesitate to say, that those whocall themselves Abolitionists should at once effectually withdraw theirsupport, both in person and property, from the government of Massachusetts, andnot wait till they constitute a majority of one, before they suffer the rightto prevail through them. I think that it is enough if they have God on theirside, without waiting for that other one. Moreover, any man more right than hisneighbors constitutes a majority of one already. Writing& Language 篇章一:水污染模拟实验人为排放含磷物质到水体中导致水体富营养化,水中藻类蔓生。为警示民众及各类机构排放含磷物质的恶果,研究污染成因,科学家与人迹罕至处专门辟出Lake 277,Lake 276人为制造污染条件,模拟自然状态下水体污染的发展过程。通过模拟实验,找出问题成因,同时警示众人随意排放含磷物质的危害。此举已在社会引起一定的效应,政府及企业开始采取相应措施控制磷排放,民众已开始有所觉悟。 篇章二:比萨斜塔比萨斜塔几经风雨,楼越来越歪,几经面临倒塌的风险,不是政府和人民不努力,政府曾两度组织修复斜塔,第二次甚至差点把塔都给弄没了,却都没有修复成功,斜塔依然岌岌可危,直到出现了一个土木工程学家,凭借自己高超的专业技能,综合考虑全局,决定最稳妥的方式是采用“挪沙法”——将斜塔底部的沙土一点一点挪走,最终消除了斜塔倒塌的威胁。 篇章三:医助或可消除医生短缺的危机现代人对医疗的需求越来越多,然后医生却依然短缺,每年从医学院毕业的就那么些人。为解决医生短缺问题,现在出现了一个叫医助(physician assistant)的岗位。他们接受专门的训练,能代替医生完整很多工作,相比医生,培养他们的时间成本和金钱成本低得多。 篇章四:超级英雄的黄金时代和白银时代以及黄铜时代漫画和电影一样,都不得不适应每一个时代的潮流,适应每一个时代新观众的口味。漫画已经经历了从黄金时代到白银时代的转变,现在正在朝着黄铜时代发展。黄金时代的英雄比如说DC comics的超人,完全就不是人,跑的比火车快,能徒手举火车等;白银时代的英雄是更加现实的,更加可以接近的,需要面对很多现实的社会问题,比如说蝙蝠侠和蜘蛛侠,他们本身是人类,在心理及肉体层面都很容易受到伤害;黄铜时代似乎是我们接下来应该迎接的时代,但貌似并不如黄金时代转到白银时代转型时那么成功。 语法题总结句子结构的题目在语法考点中仍然占有很大的比重;标点符号考察了破折号作插入语的用法,还有逗号、分号、括号的使用;动词的用法,-ing形式还是不定式to do;图表信息题考了一道,出现在第三篇文章中;排序题及插入句子题若干。 Essay阅读文章选自Christopher Hitchens的一篇社论文章——“The Lovely Stones”, 文章最早发表于2009年的vanityfair.com。文章主旨是英国应该把曾经低价买来的帕特农神殿的珍贵的雕塑还给希腊。文章难度较高,有不少专业词汇。关于这篇文章中的修辞分析:Evidence方面:作者详细地陈述了与帕特农神殿相关的历史事实,其中用到一些数据,以较专业的角度帮助读者了解相关背景知识,以便更好地理解自己的观点。Reasoning方面:文章于开头引用了著名古典主义者的名言,表明帕特农神殿的艺术地位。之后陈述了大量关于帕特农神殿雕塑的历史事实,指明了期多次受破坏的悲惨下场。之后指出希腊已经在保护这些艺术珍品方面做了努力,如修建博物馆,并且表示要把希腊留存的雕塑和英国曾经低价买来的一半雕塑重新reunite在一起。来文章段落较大,比较容易分析逻辑结构。Stylistic and Persuasive elements方面:作者用词比较专业,在表现对雕塑的现状堪忧时用了一些很明显的negative words,并且appeal to readers’ emotion,引发读者对雕塑的关注和担忧。 附原文: The great classicist A. W. Lawrence(illegitimate younger brother of the even more famously illegitimate T.E. “ofArabia”) once remarked of the Parthenon that it is “the one building in theworld which may be assessed as absolutely right.” ……The damage done by the ages to thebuilding, and by past empires and occupations, cannot all be put right. Butthere is one desecration and dilapidation that can at least be partiallyundone. Early in the 19th century, Britain’s ambassador to the Ottoman Empire,Lord Elgin, sent a wrecking crew to the Turkish-occupied territory of Greece,where it sawed off approximately half of the adornment of the Parthenon andcarried it away. As with all things Greek, there were three elements to this,the most lavish and beautiful sculptural treasury in human history. Under thedirection of the artistic genius Phidias, the temple had two massive pedimentsdecorated with the figures of Pallas Athena, Poseidon, and the gods of the sunand the moon. It then had a series of 92 high-relief panels, or metopes,depicting a succession of mythical and historical battles. The most intricateelement was the frieze, carved in bas-relief, which showed the gods, humans,and animals that made up the annual Pan-Athens procession: there were 192equestrian warriors and auxiliaries featured, which happens to be the exactnumber of the city’s heroes who fell at the Battle of Marathon. Experts differon precisely what story is being told here, but the frieze was quite clearlycarved as a continuous narrative.Ever since Lord Byron wrote his excoriatingattacks on Elgin’s colonial looting, first in Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage (1812)and then in The Curse of Minerva (1815), there has been a bitter argument aboutthe legitimacy of the British Museum’s deal. I’ve written a whole book aboutthis controversy and won’t oppress you with all the details, but would justmake this one point. If the Mona Lisa had been sawed in two during theNapoleonic Wars and the separated halves had been acquired by different museumsin, say, St. Petersburg and Lisbon, would there not be a general wish to seewhat they might look like if re-united? If you think my analogy is overdrawn,consider this: the body of the goddess Iris is at present in London, while herhead is in Athens. The front part of the torso of Poseidon is in London, andthe rear part is in Athens. And so on. This is grotesque.It is unfortunately true that the cityallowed itself to become very dirty and polluted in the 20th century, and as aresult the remaining sculptures and statues on the Parthenon were nastilyeroded by “acid rain.” And it’s also true that the museum built on theAcropolis in the 19th century, a trifling place of a mere 1,450 square meters,was pathetically unsuited to the task of housing or displaying the work ofPhidias. But gradually and now impressively, the Greeks have been living up totheir responsibilities. Beginning in 1992, the endangered marbles were removedfrom the temple, given careful cleaning with ultraviolet and infra-red lasers,and placed in a climate-controlled interior. Alas, they can never all berepositioned on the Parthenon itself, because, though the atmospheric pollutionis now better controlled, Lord Elgin’s goons succeeded in smashing many of theentablatures that held the sculptures in place. That leaves us with the next-bestthing, which turns out to be rather better than one had hoped.About a thousand feet southeast of thetemple, the astonishing new Acropolis Museum will open on June 20. With 10times the space of the old repository, it will be able to display all themarvels that go with the temples on top of the hill. Most important, it will beable to show, for the first time in centuries, how the Parthenon sculptureslooked to the citizens of old.The British may continue in theirconstipated fashion to cling to what they have so crudely amputated, ……TheAcropolis Museum has hit on the happy idea of exhibiting, for as long asfollowing that precedent is too much to hope for, its own original sculptureswith the London-held pieces represented by beautifully copied casts. …… itcreates a natural thirst to see the actual re-assembly completed. So, far fromemptying or weakening a museum, this controversy has instead created anotherone, which is destined to be among Europe’s finest galleries. And one day,surely, there will be an agreement to do the right thing by the world’s most“right” structure.
