prompt 1Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below. Materialism: it's the thing that everybody loves to hate. Few aspects of modern life have been more criticized than materialism. But let's face it: materialism—acquiring possessions and spending money—is a vital source of meaning and happiness in our time. People may criticize modern society for being too materialistic, but the fact remains that most of us spend most of our energy producing and consuming more and more stuff. Adapted from James Twitchell, "Two Cheers for Materialism"Assignment:Should modern society be criticized for being materialistic? 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 2Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below. Knowledge is power. In agriculture, medicine, and industry, for example, knowledge has liberated us from hunger, disease, and tedious labor. Today, however, our knowledge has become so powerful that it is beyond our control. We know how to do many things, but we do not know where, when, or even whether this know-how should be used. Assignment:Can knowledge be a burden rather than a benefit? 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 3Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below. We do not take the time to determine right from wrong. Reflecting on the difference between right and wrong is hard work. It is so much easier to follow the crowd, going along with what is popular rather than risking the disapproval of others by voicing an objection of any kind. Adapted from Stephen J. Carter, IntegrityAssignment:Is it always best to determine one's own views of right and wrong, or can we benefit from following the crowd? 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 4Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below. It is often the case that revealing the complete truth may bring trouble—discomfort, embarrassment, sadness, or even harm—to oneself or to another person. In these circumstances, it is better not to express our real thoughts and feelings. Whether or not we should tell the truth, therefore, depends on the circumstances.Assignment:Do circumstances determine whether or not we should tell the truth? 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.。

从写作手法角度论新SAT作文怎么写

第一，evidence。

这个应该是全文最多也最明显的特征了，作者通篇大量机构和专家。比如第八段讲了Franklin Project的三位提出者并详细介绍了他们的身份和资历，这就是很清楚的ethos，建立可信度。

让读者知道这个解决方案不是某个打酱油的拍脑袋提出的，而是专业人士苦心经营的。之后还多次引用这些人的话语（quotation），来为这个项目的可行性和有效性背书。

已有官方范文中对于这种写作手法有非常成熟的案例，可以轻松套用。第二，reasoning。

可以从全文或局部的行文思路切入。根据之前对文章的分析，第一部分提出问题，第二部分给出解决方案并分析利弊，第三部分重申主题。

把作者的行文思路一层一层分析清楚即可。当然，此写法难度较大且比较耗时，所以我在课上就明确表示不推荐所有同学使用。

感觉有压力的同学可以只分析局部或在后面的stylistic and persuasive elements里选两种来写。第三，stylistic and persuasive elements。

这里花样比较多，我选几个讲。1、根据官方题目要求里给出的两种手段word choice和appeals to emotion，我会选择第九段来写，这一段里出现了一些含义较强的词语words with strong connotation，如a remarkable opportunity,asks a lot from a tiny few,we owe an enormous debt等。

这些词突出了我们亏欠别人的太多，从而愈发衬托出Franklin Project的重要性。段落最后的tour after tour in Iraq and Afghanistan更能唤起人们的同情心，想到那些军人在危险之地一遍遍玩命，读者自然会为自己的自私感到愧疚。

2、除了选择官方指定手段，我们也可以自由选择。所以还可以选最后一段的让步加反驳concession and rebuttal，因为这个feature太过明显，且已有的官方中有类似的写法存在，具备参考意义。

总结，严格来讲，以上我一共给出了五种features，考试现场五选三，再根据上课讲过的相应套路操作即可。本次写作考试总体偏难，高分不易。

目测五月亚洲题可能会有所调整，拭目以待。

英语好差好差又非常想去美国,SAT五月就要第一次考了,有时候作

你好。

看到你的情况，发现你有方向和目标，现在是实现目标的过程。而任何事情在实现目标的过程中往往都是不顺利的，这样才更能体会到实现目标的胜利感。

现在是准备语言学习的一个阶段，所以说希望的话，肯定有（毕竟还有5个月的学习时间，你的平均分也挺高的，证明你的学校成绩应该也挺好的），重要的是怎么去准备了。我认为有以下几点：争取评判下自己的语言成绩，看看英语水平处在哪个阶段，弱点在哪（听说读写的能力，可以拿托福考试做个水平测试）。

根据自己的英语能力，针对5个月（你自己说的时间）的sat备考期，做个学习计划，使自己能够有阶段的完成各个科目的学习。最重要的一点，调整好心态，不要着急（因为急也解决不了任何问题），尽全力去投入到SAT的备考学习中。

具体SAT的备考学习，可以找我们了解下。 祝你顺利取得理想的SAT成绩。
