新动SAT语法讲义

SAT 语法部分简介语法部分属于SAT reasoning test 中的写作(writing)板块,与essay writing 分值一起组成写作板块的总分。

SAT语法之所以被划分在Writing Skills当中,是因为它实际是考查考生对英语的标准书面语(Standard Written English)的掌握程度,并非琐碎复杂的语法知识,SAT语法规则有时和我们通常所学的语法书上的知识点有所出入,规则也不尽相同。

其考试题型和考试重点也与中国的语法题目大相径庭。

因此SAT的语法具有特殊性,它追求的是“好的语法”,是恰当的,最符合英语国家文化传统与语言习惯的用法。

SAT的语法规则,也就是像OG当中所阐述的那样,是一种“the rules of good written English”,具有准确,清晰,简洁的特点,杜绝口语化、模糊和冗余的表达。

表现在做题方面,不仅仅会考到你是否能判断这个句子正确与否,而且会考到这个句子是否有效和简洁。

这就大大提升了题目的难度。

比如说有些句子在TOEFL中是对的,但是在SAT语法里面就是错误的,因为它不够简洁有效。

整个语法部分包括三种题型:ISE(Identifying sentence errors,即挑错题)、IS(Improving sentences,即句子改进题)、IP(Improving paragraphs,即段落改进题),所有题目均为五选一。

SAT语法部分的49个选择题分布在两个section,其中 ISE(句子挑错题)18 小题、IS(句子改进题)25 小题、IP(段落改进题)6 小题。

三种题型所考查的侧重点各不相同,从OG和真题上对各部分考试目的和内容的解析中可以得出这一点。

如在 ISE 的介绍中,对考生的要求是“The ability to recognize grammar and usage errors”,强调语法和固定用法的使用是否正确;而IS对考生的要求则变成了“the ability to recognize and write clear, effective and accurate sentences”,从语法知识转移到了清晰,准确,简洁的表达方式。

SAT语法知识点汇集(二)

SAT语法知识点汇集(二)

SAT语法知识点汇集(二)SAT考试不可或缺的另一个科目就是SAT语法,也是考生失分最为严重的一项。

针对这种情况,文都国际教育小编为各位考生整理了SAT语法考试知识点,希望大家在备考阶段能够着重掌握。

SAT语法知识点汇集:21. 代词指代不能指代不清,隐藏指代。

如代词画线应当首先考虑指代问题。

This,these不能指代前面出现的单数和复数名词,而要使用如:“such+指代名词”的形式来消除这种模糊指代。

不可单独使用that指代前面的不可数名词,而一般使用“that of +n”的结构。

One和you,they不能混用,one只能指代she或he.22. 比较事物要具有可比性,不同事物不可进行比较,往往比较要遵从平行和简洁的原则。

(通常like/unlike/similar to/compared with置于句首时,要首先考虑为比较问题)。

Like+n强调同一类事物在某方面具有相似性;as+句子强调动作的相似性(具体的人和事物比较一般都是性质的比较,用like)。

Like/unlike一般放在句首,放在句尾容易引起歧义。

比较级和than同时出现或没有。

两者之间比较使用比较级,三者或以上使用最高级。

er和more都可以表示比较级,但二者不可同时出现。

23. 主谓一致:句子的主语和谓语动词应当在数与形式上保持一致(A of B真正的主语是A,除非A是数量词,谓语由A决定)。

有时候介词结构开头,真正的主语其实在后面,注意识别倒装句。

(当否定词seldom,never,hardly等在句子开头,主句使用部分倒装。

)。

复数名词/代词+each(复数),each of 复数名词(单数),a total of+复数名词(复数),neither作主语(单数)。

文学性的总称都是不可数名词。

E.g. literature; poetry; prose.24. 时态要符合大背景,客观事实与真理使用一般现在时,if和unless在未来发生时也用一般现在时。

SAT语法学习讲义SAT语法学习讲义修辞倒装1.在以never, hardly, scarcely, rarely, barely, seldom, not only, not until, nor, little, nowhere, hardly….when, no sooner….than, by no means, under no circumstances 等开头的句子中,主谓要倒装。

这些都是表示否定或半否定意义的词或词组。

例如:Never have I come across such a difficult problem. 我还从没有遇到过这样困难的问题。

Seldom do I read such magazines. 我很少读这种杂志。

No sooner had they left than the bus arrived. 他们刚走,公共汽车就来了。

2.在以"only+状语"开头的句子中,主谓要倒装。

这里only后面必须跟有它修饰的状语或状语从句,这是关键。

否则就不倒装。

例如:Only after the war was over was man able to realize the wickedness of the atomic bomb. 只是在战争结束后人类才意识到原子弹的可恶。

(注意:only 引导的状语从句不倒装,主句倒装。

) Only then did I realize the importance of English. 只在那时我才意识到英语的重要性。

Only in this way can we improve ourselves. 只有用这种方法我们才能不断提高自己。

Only after you finish it can you leave. 只有结束它以后,你才能离开。

(主句倒装) 注意:Only 如不在句首,或only 修饰的不是状语,则不倒装。

SAT 语法部分简介语法部分属于SAT reasoning test 中得写作(writing)板块,与essay writing 分值一起组成写作板块得总分。

SAT语法之所以被划分在Writing Skills当中,就是因为它实际就是考查考生对英语得标准书面语(Standard Written English)得掌握程度,并非琐碎复杂得语法知识,SAT语法规则有时与我们通常所学得语法书上得知识点有所出入,规则也不尽相同。

其考试题型与考试重点也与中国得语法题目大相径庭。

因此SAT得语法具有特殊性,它追求得就是“好得语法”,就是恰当得,最符合英语国家文化传统与语言习惯得用法。

SAT得语法规则,也就就是像OG当中所阐述得那样,就是一种“the rules of good written English”,具有准确,清晰,简洁得特点,杜绝口语化、模糊与冗余得表达。

表现在做题方面,不仅仅会考到您就是否能判断这个句子正确与否,而且会考到这个句子就是否有效与简洁。

这就大大提升了题目得难度。

比如说有些句子在TOEFL中就是对得,但就是在SAT语法里面就就是错误得,因为它不够简洁有效。

整个语法部分包括三种题型:ISE(Identifying sentence errors,即挑错题)、IS(Improving sentences,即句子改进题)、IP(Improving paragraphs,即段落改进题),所有题目均为五选一。

SAT语法部分得49个选择题分布在两个section,其中 ISE(句子挑错题)18 小题、IS(句子改进题)25 小题、IP(段落改进题)6 小题。

三种题型所考查得侧重点各不相同,从OG与真题上对各部分考试目得与内容得解析中可以得出这一点。

如在 ISE得介绍中,对考生得要求就是“The ability to recognize grammar and usage errors”,强调语法与固定用法得使用就是否正确;而IS对考生得要求则变成了“the ability to recognize and write clear, effective and accurate sentences”,从语法知识转移到了清晰,准确,简洁得表达方式。

No error (E). (P166.3)2.“欲擒故纵”法动词单复数做题基本原则是就前原则,如果句子太长、太难、太复杂时,用“欲擒故纵”法。

3.动词单复数的特殊固定用法(1) a number of 一些;一般情况下其后动词用复数,(不受任何规律限制);the number of …的数量;其后的动词在任何情况下都用单数。

量词考点:a group/list/line of 使用“就前原则”(2) 倒装结构:就后原则。

sat语法知识点总结

sat语法知识点总结

sat语法知识点总结IntroductionThe SAT is an important test for high school students planning to attend college. One of the sections of the SAT is the Writing and Language section, which tests students' understanding of grammar, style, and punctuation. In this section, students are required to identify errors, improve sentence structure, and revise passages to improve clarity and effectiveness. Therefore, it is crucial for students to have a strong grasp of grammar and syntax. In this article, we will provide an in-depth summary of the essential grammar rules and concepts that students should know for the SAT Writing and Language section.Subject-Verb AgreementOne of the fundamental principles of grammar is subject-verb agreement. This rule dictates that a singular subject should have a singular verb, and a plural subject should have a plural verb. For example, "The cat sits on the mat" uses a singular verb "sits" to agree with the singular subject "cat." On the other hand, "The cats sit on the mat" uses a plural verb "sit" to agree with the plural subject "cats."However, subject-verb agreement can become tricky when dealing with compound subjects and collective nouns. In the case of compound subjects joined by "and," the verb should be plural. For example, "Mary and John are going to the party." However, if the compound subject refers to a single entity or idea, the verb should be singular. For instance, "Bread and butter is my favorite snack."Additionally, collective nouns, which refer to a group of people or things as a single entity, can be singular or plural depending on the context. For example, "The team is practicing for the game" treats the team as a single unit, so the verb is singular. Conversely, "The team are arguing among themselves" treats the team as individuals, so the verb is plural.Pronoun-Antecedent AgreementAnother important concept in grammar is pronoun-antecedent agreement. A pronoun must agree in number, gender, and person with its antecedent, the word to which the pronoun refers. For example, "The student handed in her assignment" uses the feminine pronoun "her" to agree with the feminine antecedent "student."When dealing with indefinite pronouns such as "everyone," "anyone," and "someone," it is essential to remember that they are singular and should take singular pronouns. For instance, "Everyone should do his or her best" uses the singular pronouns "his or her" to agree with the singular indefinite pronoun "everyone."However, some indefinite pronouns, such as "both," "few," and "several," are plural and should take plural pronouns. For example, "Both of the girls received their awards" uses the plural pronoun "their" to agree with the plural indefinite pronoun "both."ModifiersModifiers are words or phrases that provide additional information about another element in the sentence. It is crucial to place modifiers close to the word they modify to avoid confusion or ambiguity. For example, "I only have three cookies" suggests that the speaker possesses nothing except three cookies, whereas "I have only three cookies" indicates the speaker's possession of three, and only three, cookies.Furthermore, dangling modifiers occur when the word or phrase a modifier should logically describe is missing from the sentence. For instance, "Running down the street, the mailbox was knocked over" suggests that the mailbox was running, which is illogical. To fix this, the sentence can be revised to "Running down the street, he knocked over the mailbox," where the subject of the modifier is clear.ParallelismParallelism refers to the use of grammatically similar elements to create balance and rhythm in a sentence. In lists or series of items, each item should be in the same grammatical form. For example, "She likes hiking, swimming, and to ride a bike" is not parallel, as "to ride a bike" should be "riding a bike" to match the other items in the list. The corrected sentence is "She likes hiking, swimming, and riding a bike."Moreover, parallel structure should be maintained in comparisons. For instance, "She is more talented, smarter, and has a better attitude" lacks parallel structure, as "has" disrupts the parallel form. The revised sentence is "She is more talented, smarter, and more positive in attitude."Sentence StructureUnderstanding sentence structure is crucial for creating clear and effective writing. A sentence should have a subject and a verb to express a complete thought. Fragments, which lack a subject, a verb, or do not express a complete thought, should be avoided. For example, "While waiting for the train" is a fragment that can be revised to "While waiting for the train, I read a book."Furthermore, run-on sentences occur when two independent clauses are joined together without proper punctuation or conjunctions. For instance, "I like to run I enjoy the feeling of freedom" is a run-on sentence that can be fixed by adding a comma and a coordinating conjunction: "I like to run, and I enjoy the feeling of freedom."CommasCommas are versatile punctuation marks that serve various purposes in writing. They can be used to separate items in a list, set off introductory phrases, and offset non-essential information. However, it is crucial to use commas correctly to avoid confusion and misinterpretation.A common mistake is the misuse of the comma splice, which occurs when a comma is used to join two independent clauses without a coordinating conjunction or a semicolon. For instance, "I like to read, I find it relaxing" is a comma splice that can be corrected by adding a conjunction: "I like to read, and I find it relaxing."Moreover, commas should be used to set off non-essential information, but not essential information. For example, "The book, which was published last year, is quite popular" uses commas to set off non-essential information. Conversely, "The woman who is wearing a red dress is my sister" does not use commas because "who is wearing a red dress" is essential to identify the woman.PunctuationIn addition to commas, proper usage of other punctuation marks, such as semicolons, colons, and dashes, is essential for clear and effective writing. Semicolons can be used to join closely related independent clauses without a conjunction, to separate items in a list when the items contain commas, and to clarify a series of item...。

SAT考试重点语法讲解

SAT考试重点语法讲解

SAT考试重点语法讲解SAT语法的考点很多,本文汇总聚集了几乎全部重点的SAT语法出题点和考点,知识点的列举很简洁,但是想要拿高分的话考生还须结合大量练习。

希望大家可以在做真题时自己结合考点,活学活用,在运用中发现自己的问题和弱项,集中突破。

一、平行结构SAT非常青睐平行结构,平行结构也是必考考点之一。

平行结构是指两个或以上句法或功能相似的句子成分,通过连词将他们完美的连接起来。

完美的平行结构要在词性上保持一致,也要在句式上保持一致。

例:Some parents believe that excessive television viewing not only by itself can waste their children’s time, but also that it lower their attention spans.这显然不是一个完美的平行结构not only but also 需要保持A与B的一致。

正确答案 believe not only that excessive television viewing wastes常见平行结构短语(保持词性和句式的一致):not only A but also BBoth A and BEither A or BNeither A nor BA rather than/instead of BFrom A to BPrefer A to B例:I learn a lot from this book, not that book.这个句子看似没有错误,但已经犯了SAT中平行原则的错,最好在that book 前加上from。

平行结构中and 是一个重要的“符号”。

平行句的前后一般都有and 连接起来。

例如看到了and doing,那么前面必定有个doing;看到and because 则前面比有一个because 从句。

二、代词指代作为一个SAT必考内容,无论在IS还是ISE中都频繁出现。

SAT 语法讲义浙江大学外语学院孙静SAT 语法部分简介语法部分属于SAT reasoning test 中的写作(writing)板块,与essay writing 分值一起组成写作板块的总分。

SAT语法之所以被划分在Writing Skills 当中,是因为它实际是考查考生对英语的标准书面语(Standard Written English)的掌握程度,并非琐碎复杂的语法知识,SAT语法规则有时和我们通常所学的语法书上的知识点有所出入,规则也不尽相同。

其考试题型和考试重点也与中国的语法题目大相径庭。

因此SAT的语法具有特殊性,它追求的是“好的语法”,是恰当的,最符合英语国家文化传统与语言习惯的用法。

SAT的语法规则,也就是像OG当中所阐述的那样,是一种“the rules of good written English”,具有准确,清晰,简洁的特点,杜绝口语化、模糊和冗余的表达。

表现在做题方面,不仅仅会考到你是否能判断这个句子正确与否,而且会考到这个句子是否有效和简洁。

这就大大提升了题目的难度。

比如说有些句子在TOEFL中是对的,但是在SAT语法里面就是错误的,因为它不够简洁有效。

整个语法部分包括三种题型:ISE(Identifying sentence errors,即挑错题)、IS(Improving sentences,即句子改进题)、IP(Improving paragraphs,即段落改进题),所有题目均为五选一。

SAT语法部分的49个选择题分布在两个section,其中 ISE(句子挑错题)18 小题、IS(句子改进题)25 小题、IP(段落改进题)6 小题。

三种题型所考查的侧重点各不相同,从OG和真题上对各部分考试目的和内容的解析中可以得出这一点。

如在 ISE的介绍中,对考生的要求是“The ability to recognize grammar and usage errors”,强调语法和固定用法的使用是否正确;而IS对考生的要求则变成了“the ability to recognize and write clear, effective and accurate sentences”,从语法知识转移到了清晰,准确,简洁的表达方式。

这种题型对中国学生而言要比句子挑错题更难适应,由于在中国的英语教育中,(尤其是大家在中国的写作考试过程中为了凑字数往往是故意把句子写得比较废话)对于“简洁”这一知识点的训练几乎是空白,而这恰恰又是修改句子的重要解题思路; IP与前两种题型的差别较大,要求考生“to understand how the sentences and the paragraphs work together”,既然是考查句子和段落之间如何作用,那么除了修改句子结构,合并句子的题目外,还会有一部分题是要求对文章做出相应的改动、插入、或者提炼文章主题。

样题(题目横线下面有字母,要求选择有语法错误的一项。

)The other (A) delegates and him (B) immediately (C) accepted the resolution drafted (D) by the neutral states. No error (E).SAT 语法一、名词 Noun(一)、语法知识梳理1.可数名词的复数表示两个以上的概念时,可数名词应该用复数。
