前 言
2016年3月开始,SAT考试进行了大改革,在阅读、语法、数学、写作这四科中,写作的变化是最大的。Official Guide 第173页的原话是:No part of the SAT has been more deeply affected by the redesign than the Essay.
对于广大考生而言,在备考中普遍存在两个问题:官方给出的试题太少;官方给出的例文太少。由此,本书提供了目前已公开或半公开的所有SAT写作真题,包括Official Guide和官网上的,以及从2016年3月到2017年3月所有SAT真考写作题目,共计21套。另外,SAT考试一个很大的特点是学生可以在College Board官网上看到自己的考场原文扫描版并下载。由此,编者搜集了近百篇真考作文题,并精选了十几篇放在本书中出版。相比市面上的其他相关书籍,本书中的所有例文都是经过官方检验的。这些文章有满分高分作文,也有平庸之作,作者都是中国学生,有些在国内读高中,有些在美国读高中。他们在考场上写的文章,比起官方给出的例文,更符合中国学生的特点,也更接地气。
在本书的编写过程中,特别感谢学生们提供自己的原文,也感谢李阳锐老师、孙云云老师、孔姗姗老师提供原题和考场原文。

As you read the passage below, consider how [the author] uses
" evidence, such as facts or examples, to support claims.
" reasoning to develop ideas and to connect claims and evidence.
" stylistic or persuasive elements, such as word choice or appeals to emotion, to add power to the ideas expressed.
Write an essay in which you explain how [the author] builds an argument to persuade [hisher] audience that [author抯 claim]. In your essay, analyze how [the author] uses one or more of the features listed in the box above or features of your own choice to strengthen the logic and persuasiveness of [hisher] argument. Be sure that your analysis focuses on the most relevant features of the passage.
Your essay should not explain whether you agree with [the author抯] claims, but rather explain how the author builds an argument to persuade [hisher] audience.
这个Prompt是统一的,告诉考生不需要表明自己是否赞成作者的观点,只需写出作者如何说服读者即可。考生也是读者,可以有代入感,即说明作者如何说服自己。考生要从evidence reasoning stylistic or persuasive elements这三个角度去分析。前两个角度类似于以理服人appeals to logic,后一个角度相当于以情感人appeals to emotion。
These three scores aren抰 combined with each other or with scores on any other part of the test.
By giving you separate scores, we make it easier for you to know where you did well and where you might have struggled.
在OG P176,说明了Reading Analysis Writing分别考查什么:
Reading: How well you demonstrated your understanding of the passage
Analysis: How well you analyzed the passage and carried out the task of explaining how the author builds his or her argument to persuade an audience
Writing: How skillfully you crafted your response
1.3SAT写作的考查目的
SAT改革后,写作部分是optional,也就是选考的。从目前中国学生看,参加考试的比例在90% ,也就是相当于必考了。那为什么要考呢?SAT写作的考查目的又何在?
