Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below. We are frequently told that compromise is the best way for people to work out their differences. When people compromise, with each side losing a little in order to reach a satisfactory agreement, both sides can continue to live in harmony. However, compromise can work only when the issues at stake are not that important. Compromise does not work when there is a genuine difference of opinion about strongly held principles or ideas.

Assignment:

Is compromise always the best way to resolve a conflict? Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observations.

Prompt 2

Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below.

People usually assume that the quality of a decision is

directly related to the time and effort that went into making it. We believe that we are always better off gathering as much information as possible and then spending as much time as possible analyzing that information. But there are times when making a quick judgment is the best thing to do. Decisions made quickly can be as good as decisions made slowly and cautiously.

Adapted from Malcolm Gladwell, Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking.

【SAT词汇】新SAT阅读词汇题答题技巧和真题讲解

在考试中词汇题可能会出现三种情况:1. 原文单词很简单,但选项中的单词较难2. 原文单词难度中等,但考察的并不是单词字面意思,而是需要结合上下文对其进行释义3. 原文单词较难,选项中的单词也难。 新SAT阅读词汇题答题技巧 在阅读考试中遇到了词汇题目,如果题干和选项中有个别单词不认识,就可以运用排除法或推测法等答题技巧;如果题干和选项中大多数词都不认识,就要在平时多多积累,努力扩大词汇量,因为词汇题的出现比例较高,一般每篇(或每对)文章会出两道词汇题。下面将通过一道阅读词汇题目来为大家讲解答题技巧和步骤。 新SAT阅读词汇题真题讲解 Passage 1 is adapted from Nicholas Carr, “Author Nicholas Carr: The Web Shatters Focus, Rewires B rains.” ?2010 by Condé Nast. Passage 2 is from Steven Pinker,“Mind over Mass Media.” ?2010 by The New York Times Company. Passage 1 … We know that the human brain is highly plastic; neurons and synapses change as circumstances change. When we adapt to a new cultural phenomenon, including the use of a new medium, we end up with a different brain, says Michael Merzenich, a pioneer of the field of neuroplasticity. That means our online habits continue to reverberate in the workings of our brain cells even

2017年SAT真题填空试题及解析(一) 只有大量的练习熟悉SAT各种题型,在考试时才能做到得心应手,取得更高的分数。本文将会提供给考生八道不同的题型的填空题,快来尝试做一下吧! 1、It was difficult to believe that the sophisticated piece of technology had ------- through the centuries from such ------- and rudimentary apparatus. A、developed . . an intricate B、resulted . . a complicated C、evolved . . a quaint D、degenerated . . an obsolescent E、differed . . an exotic 正确答案:C 解析:The phrase "through the centuries" suggests that the first missing term will describe how the "sophisticated piece of technology" developed over a period of time. The word "such" indicates that the second missing term will contrast with "sophisticated." Only "evolved . . a quaint" satisfies both requirements.(“through the centuries”这个短语表明,第一个缺失的术语将描述一段时间内“sophisticated piece of technology”是如何发展起来的。“such”这个词表示第二个缺失的术语将与“sophisticated”形成对比。只有“evolved . . a quaint”才能满足这两个要求。) 2、The senator chose to incur dislike rather than ------- her principles to win favor with the public. A、gratify B、endorse C、accuse D、compromise E、advertise 正确答案:D 解析:This very principled politician would rather be unpopular than compromise, or accept changes in, her ideals.(这个非常有原则的政治家宁愿不妥协,也不接受她的理想的改变。)

SAT试题

SAT试题——长篇阅读练习 SAT Reading Comprehension Test 1 10 mins - 7 questions The extract is taken from a book written sixty years ago by a British scientist in which he considers the relationship between science and society. The pioneers of the teaching of science imagined that its introduction into education would remove the conventionality, artificiality, and backward-lookingness which were characteristic; of classical studies, but they were gravely disappointed. So, too, in 5 their time had the humanists thought that the study of the classical authors in the original would banish at once the dull pedantry and superstition of mediaeval scholasticism. The professional schoolmaster was a match for both of them, and has almost managed to make the understanding of chemical reactions as dull 10 and as dogmatic an affair as the reading of Virgil's Aeneid. The chief claim for the use of science in education is that it teaches a child something about the actual universe in which he is living, in making him acquainted with the results of scientific 15 discovery, and at the same time teaches him how to think logically and inductively by studying scientific method. A certain limited

sat数学填空题怎么写答案

https://www.360docs.net/doc/ee342668.html, SAT数学填空题怎么写答案 SAT数学填空题和选择题所考察的知识点是一样的,解题的方式也没有区别,具体差别就是填空题没有选项,需要考生手动填写答案。这种题型的优点在于答错了不会扣分,考生一定不能空着,那么由于填空题的答案需要手动填写,而且历年的数学考试中总有考生因为填写答案不准而失分的情况,所以接下来就来给大家分享的是SAT数学填空题怎么写答案的问题。 一.填空题的填写顺序 首先要知道填空题的书写顺序,大家最好从答题卡的最左边开始,这样可以有一定的顺序避免自己混乱。考生一定要注意空格第一栏下方的圈里并没有数字“0”,在第二栏下方才有数字“0”,填写的时候可以多看下,如果是答案为多个的一般填写一个就可以,最多2-3个答案就可以满足,虽然填写部分不算分,但是不要省这点时间,因为填写之后再涂圈圈的正确率是最高的。》》更多详情点击SAT数学填空题填写要点 二.答案是分数的填写方式 首先空格共有4 栏,其中“/ ”把分子和分母分成两部分,那么考生在写分数答案的过程中就要特别注意分数的表现形式,如果要在4 栏空格中填写“16/32 ”就不太合适了应该尽量化简为最简分数,如果计算出的分数无法填入空格、而且也无法简化的话,那么考生就可以考虑用小数来表达你所计算的答案了。一些熟悉的书写也要格外注意比如数字1和/的书写一定要区分开,数字1尽量写的直一些。》》更多详情点击SAT数学分数的填写方式 还有一个关于分数填写的问题就是不要填入带分数,这是严禁使用的填写方式,如果得出的是带分数的答案的话就要尽量化为假分数或者小数来填写,无论是小数还是分数只要答案正确都可以。 三.答案是小数的填写方式 答案是小数的填写方式需要注意的地方比较多,首先小数点前面不要加0,因为前面有一个“.”如果答案是0.459那么写成 .459就要比0.46准确了。所以小数点的放置位置非常关键,一定要看清楚计算器上所像是的小数点是几位数。 另外大家要注意的是小数位数多的答案不必要四舍五入,这和中国数学考试的答案填写方式不大一样,如果答案是循环小数,考生要在有限的空格内填涂小数的最长位数,例如答案是0.888那么不能写成0.89,而是 .889.还有一点最重要的就是如果答案是无限不循环小数,例如0.3457,那么可以填入 .345,不需要四舍五入来进位。》》更多详情点击SAT数学分数的填写方式 以上就是给大家分享的关于SAT数学填空题怎么写答案的内容,虽然都是细节的问题,但是数学题中这些细节的问题是很容易影响大家的考试分数的,所以大家在平时备考中就要各位注意,预祝大家取得理想的SAT考试成绩。

2017年3月11日的sat考试真题分析

2017年3月11日SAT考试真题分析 北美2017年3月11日的sat写作考试已经结束快半年了,总体而言,本次sat写作考试整体偏难。故今天的文章,文都国际教育小编与分享3月11日的sat写作真题。希望对大家有所帮助。 一、阅读部分 本次阅读难度适中稍难,出现了2篇Science文章(其中1篇还是paired passage),1篇Social Science文章,1篇History文章,还有一篇文学类文章。 其中History的文章是Emerson之于政府和个人关系的论述,也可算作Social Science政治类文章。 由此可见,Science类型的文章占比进一步加大! 第一篇: 文学类文章,小说,难度稍易 文章大意:节选的是小说中第一章刚开始的部分,描述了Briony这个孩子的一些性格特点和爱好。比如非常爱整洁,喜欢藏秘密,11岁开始写自己第一个故事等。将这个女孩栩栩如生的刻画出来。题目多为细节题。 第二篇: 社科类Social Science文章,难度适中 文章大意:本文讲述了一个概念 - metaphor(隐喻手法),以及它对人心理产生的印象和作用。文章开头举了一个metaphor的例子,说如果没有去过一个城市,而另一个人对这个城市的描述是脏乱差,这个隐喻手法就会在我们脑子中根深蒂固,即使发现是不准确的,也很难被去除。文章随后用科学实验的例子,继续通过数据去说明metaphor对人心理产生的影响。例子是描述一个城市的犯罪,用两个不同的词汇描述,一个描述犯罪是“像猛兽肆虐城市”,一个是像“病毒散播城市”,然后让受访者选择解决方案,凶猛型的“增加警力和监狱”和温和型“教育并扶植经济”,结果完全不一样。 第三篇: 科学Science类,难度稍高 本文讲述的通过研究动物骨头标本的一种实验方法,来推断恐龙的年龄,以及它们体重和年龄的关系。文章给出了不同恐龙种族,如暴龙等,它们年龄和体重的关系图。本篇涉及多道图表题。 第四篇: 历史政治History类,难度稍高
