SSAT写作, SSAT写作思路, SSAT写作原则

SSAT写作分两大类,一种是开放性的话题作文,一种是议论性话题作文。开放性话题相对于后者来说难度系数较大因而大多数人都不选择,但是突破考试难关不就是一个迎难而上的过程么,所以今天我们就来看看开放性话题作文如何

写!

我们先来谈谈SSAT写作思路:

首先我们来看下Sample Topics:

1. If you did something over again, what would it be and why?

2. I never felt better than when I…

3. He couldn't believe they wanted his help.

4. They were on journey for five days, five hoursand five minutes…

5. Pretend you and your family could go any place you wanted for one day. Where would you go?

看到这样的题目是不是一开始会感觉无从下手?不妨看看下面这句话:

It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen. (1984 by GeorgeOrwell)四月间,天气寒冷晴朗,钟敲了十三下。

这是乔治奥维尔著名小说《1984》的第一句话。我们不妨把它看作是开放性的话题作文来写,去想象并构思出一个故事。

另外,开放性话题作文的要求是根据给出的题目信息写一个故事。从本质上说考生可以将议论性话题作文当中要使用的个人或是他人的经历应用到开放性

话题作文里去。当然这类作文并非一定要用个人经历,考生可以发挥想象力创造一个很新颖的故事,注意新颖不等于怪异,或是借鉴平时从书刊杂志,甚至电视电影中的故事;借鉴名人明星的故事等。可以发挥的空间很大。

SSAT写作原则:(以疯狂动物城的故事为例)

1. 根据结果解释原因cause-effect

What happened and why?

Sample Topic: Nick Wilde, the fox in Zootopiacity,couldn't believe Judy the rabbit wanted his help.

人称-he;时态-过去式,叙事-根据语境Nick couldn't believe Judy wanted his help 这样一个结果去解释原因,补全故事。Nick为什么不相信Judy真的需要他的帮助呢?那么根据剧情可知他们的结识过程,矛盾产生以及最后误会消除,形成一个完整的故事。

2.根据事件,接续补全故事

What would happen next?

What did the character/characters do?

Sample Topic: She sees Nick Wilde, a sly fox, going out of Zootopia City and he is about to…

Sample Topic: The policewoman Judy Hops stopped a Benz at the corner of the street…

这两个题目就是要根据已有信息,Judy 看到了狐狸Nick走出了动物城,正准备去做什么,来继续补全故事。人物至少有两个Judy 和Nick,然后去构思人物关系(同学,恋人,朋友,父子,陌生人等),周围环境,进行比较详细的描写。另外写作重心放在事件发展以及人物心理活动描写上。当然文章展开越有戏剧性越好,不过中学生在这方面不用要求太高。

3.提出问题,给出解决方案和建议

What should do next?

SampleTopic:How can Judy and Nick save the city Zootopia when facing the big trouble made by Lamb the mayor?

第一,写作过程紧扣主题,组织篇章结构,注意主次,首尾呼应。注意写作对象和语言风格。就拿《疯狂动物城》来说明笔者的意图。片子反复围绕两个主题:“差别”和“包容”。有影评称,故事一气呵成、人物鲜活独特。探案的情节扣人心弦、成长的轨迹又触碰人心。开放性作文也是在讲述一个故事,考生在写作过程当中也要紧扣主题。

第二,丰富且细致的细节描写。在行文过程中在框架里巧妙的加入细节就会有趣丰满的多。否则就会形成一种只有骨架而缺乏血肉的文章。因此细节表达在开放性话题作文里要多些会比较讨巧:“show more than tell”。那么细节的感觉是什么样的呢?请感受下下面两段文字:

‘Dusk is enclosing me in its dove-gray, chilly air. It is just one of those winter evenings, and I am walking home from my Chinese zither class. Children of my age are playing in the street before dinner.’‘This was an early spring morning in Beijing. My vision blurred as a light drizzle began to veil the lake, the stone bridge, and the light green trees. Everything in the foggy, watery air seemed alive,whispering to each other while bathing in the gentle rain. Some water fowls floated by, their wakes rippling across the lake.’

这两段文字都是关于周围环境的描写,画面感强且有趣,很容易吸引读者的阅读兴趣。

开放性话题作文是非常考查考生的故事架构能力的,考生平时在观影时多思考,写作时多借鉴电影及书里的故事,多多进行练习的话相信你们的写作水平会有很大提高的!

SSAT 阅读Reading解释和练习

Reading A.Read 1.Vocabulary 2.Sentence, look for main sentence, and know the main idea. Long sentence practice: a.Many anthropologists see this as proof of the Bering Strait migration theory, which holds that between 11000 and 6000 year ago, ancestors of Native America across a land bridge that had jointed the two continents. (定语从句) b.Nothing that tribal legends locate Apache origins squarely in the American Southwest, he offers an alternative explanation of newfound genetic link. (现在分词短语做状语) c.Stanford University linguist Merritt Rulen has discovered striking similarities between et, a nearly extinct language spoken in central Siberia, and various languages of the Athabaskan group, traditionally spoken by Native American living along the western edge of North America, including the Apache in he southwestern United States. (同位语从句,过去分词短语做状语) d.In the first quarter of the twentieth century, some women scientists who engaged in research worked at the most prestigious institutes of the period and enjoyed more career mobility than women researchers would experience again for several decades. (长定语从句在中间) e.Sabin, an anatomist at the Rockefeller Institute of Medical Research noted for her research on the lymphatic system, is one important example. (同位语从句加过去分词) f.To have maintained an active role in research institutions, women would have had to share some of the decision-making power: they needed to be part of hiring, promotion and funding decisions. (表目的的不定式提前,冒号句) g.As a result, they found it almost impossible to provide opportunities for a younger set of female colleagues seeking employment in a research setting, to foster their productivity and facilitate their productivity and facilitate their career mobility, and eventually to allow them access to the top ranks. (it is impossible to do sth., and to do sth., and to do sth.…三个并列成分) h.Even those with very high professional aspirations accepted subordinate status as assistants if doing so seemed necessary to gain access to research position and too often these were the only position offered them in their chosen careers.

(定语从句,过去分词) k.She relates that, during her ten years in the department, men were given at least six positions that she was qualified for and wanted desperately, but for which she was not even considered because she was a woman.

SSAT各部分考试题型及答题技巧

SSAT各部分考试题型及答题技巧 SSAT考试题型分为写作和选择两种题型,选择题均为5选1,考生要想充分备考SSAT 考试,就要对各部分考试题型有充分的了解,然后找到相应的解答技巧,下面就带考生一起了解。 一、写作 写作为第一部分,考试时间为25分钟。这部分要求考生通过例子来支持或反驳一个观点。所举的例子可以来自个人经历、历史、文学等。这部分内容不计入总分,但会随其他部分的成绩寄送到所申请的学校。校方会根据需要,对之进行评估,并作为录取的参考依据之一。深圳SSAT培训班 二、选择题 接下来的四个部分均为选择题,包括数学两个部分(各30分钟,各25题)、语文(30分钟,60题)、阅读(40分钟,40题)。 1、数学。 无论是SSAT的低级还是高级,数学部分的考查内容均不超出国内初中教学的知识点范围,其难点在于:由于采用全英文命题,在理解应用题的题意时,一定要熟悉最常见的表达方式。 题目中不会有复杂的精确计算,但是考查估算能力,所以计算器是不允许带入考场的。数学两个部分的难度和范围完全一样,SSAT会在数学两个部分之间插入一个非数学的部分,以便让考生科学用脑。 2、语文。 语文部分是对词汇的直接考查,对于英语非母语的中学生难度很大。这部分共60道题,具体又分为:30道同义题、30个类比题。同义题,题干为一个单词,要求考生从5个选项中选出一个和题干中单词意义相同的选项。这部分考查的词汇量,在高级SSAT中达到9000词水平,在低级SSAT中达到7000词水平,远远超出了国内教学大纲的要求。 解答这类题时,除了依靠很大的词汇量,还可使用基于构词知识的猜测和排除等方法。类比题的形式接近中国古代的对对子,比如某道题,题干中给出的是“frog对toad”,则答案可以是“turtle对tortoise”(内在联系为水生对陆生)。解答这类题,挖掘给出的两个词之间的内在联系,甚至是拼写方面的,然后在选项中寻找内在联系类型相同的一项即可。

SSAT备考刷单词和刷题,从量变到质变

SSAT备考刷单词和刷题,从量变到质变 经常会碰到同学提出这样的问题,到底如何才能考出理想的SSAT成绩,今天三立在线教育给大家带来SSAT备考刷单词和刷题,从量变到质变一文,希望能帮到大家。 What is SSAT? SSAT,全称Secondary School Admission Test, 无论美国当地学生还是中国学生,都需要这个标化成绩,才能完成申请程序。SSAT分为3个考试难度——lower level(针对4-5年级学生),middle level(针对6-7年级学生)以及申请美高同学要考的upper level(针对8-11年级学生)总分也相对不同,对于upper level来说,满分是2400,且考察的能力程度也相对lower和middle level提高。 词汇部分Verbal 在正式学习SSAT之前,应适当背一些基础词汇再继续刷题,才能达到更好的效果。买一本词汇书,可以稍作预习。 SSAT考试的词汇部分也分为两类:Synonyms同义题和Analogies类比题。

第一部分Synonyms要求的是极广的词汇量,以及同义词的储备量,第二部分Analogies则要求的是理解两词之间的关系,常见的主要分为几种:并列、上升、下降以及词性的转换。 于是可以总结出SSAT词汇部分的两大关键点:刷题&刷单词 背单词的方法 也许你会觉得害怕,觉得不想再考SSAT了,但这是一个美高申请者不可逃避的过程,而且以一个过来人的身份,我不得不说,这种最简单粗暴的训练方式其实最有效。从一开始的每天600单词逐渐加到每天800单词,到复习的阶段甚至每天1000个单词都是有的。即使每天这样起早贪黑、无时不刻的背单词,我们还是会有生疏忘记的单词,所以最重要的背单词方法就是——温故而知新——不停地反复你背过的单词,把它们背熟到能够第一眼就能反应出意思,就算成功了。 在我第一次的SSAT成绩取消之后,再次复习SSAT词汇时就出现了不少忘记的单词,于是我计划每天复习50个list(相当于500单词左右),记下所有我忘记的这些单词,写好中文,在每天背另50个list之前,再把之前忘记的那些单词重新过一遍,标出那些过了几次却还是没有记住的单词,不断反复这些单词直到熟悉为止。这种反复性的背单词,至少对于我来说,是非常有效的,这样既不会减慢背单词的速度,也能加深对单词的印象。 当然,如果你觉得你自己没有那么自觉,你可以利用背单词软件帮助你。在这里推荐一款软件,个人觉得用着还不错:扇贝

美国高中留学必备语言成绩.doc

美国高中留学必备语言成绩 美国是世界上经济最发达的国家,教育体系完善。申请美国高中需要哪些语言成绩,的我在这里为大家整理了美国高中留学必备语言成绩,希望对大家有所帮助。 一、SLEP SLEP是Secondary Level English Proficiency Test的缩写,即中学生程度英语水平考试(母语为非英语国家的学生初中,高中的英语能力测验)。SLEP TEST是ETS主办的,SLEP满分为67分,测试时间90分钟。 从2012年7月1日起,SLEP考试被TOEFL Junior考试取代,由于美国高中对于SLEP成绩认可还在继续,还有一些学校接受和参考SLEP成绩。具体参考各学校的申请要求。 二、TOEFL Junior TOEFL Junior,即初中托福,俗称为小托福。是ETS托福家族最新成员(Educational Testing Service,美国教育考试服务中心)。为了适应中国学生的学习现状,进一步放宽小托福考试对年龄的限制,TOEFL Junior考试在中国大陆地区的报考年龄上限为17周岁(含),下不设限。 TOEFL Junior初中托福考试主要由三大部分组成:听力、语言形式和含义(可以理解为语法和词汇)、阅读。考试时间大概2个小时,满分为900分。 TOEFL是由美国教育测验服务社(ETS)举办的英语能力考试,中文音译为“托福”。新托福由四部分组成,分别是阅读(Reading)、听力

(Listening)、口试(Speaking)、写作(Writing)。每部分满分30分,满分120。 三、SSAT SSAT,全称Secondary School Admission Test,中文名称为美国中学入学考试,适用于美国、加拿大私立中学的入学。主要测量学生的数学、语文以及阅读理解能力,考察考生的逻辑思维和发展潜力。由Admission Test Board命题。 针对不同年龄的学生,SSAT考试分为高级(upper level)和低级(lower level),前者针对目前就读8-11年级的学生,后者针对目前就读5-7年级的学生。 SLEP/TOEFL JUNIOR 词汇量大概5000左右,TOEFL词汇量大概10000左右,SSAT词汇量大概14000左右,这几种考试难度递增,一般建议SLEP55分以上或TOEFL Junior 800分以上开始准备TOEFL 。TOEFL 达到80分以上开始准备SSAT,申请寄宿初中的学生也可学完TOEFL JUNIOR就准备SSAT。 一类的寄宿中学一般需要托福100分左右 SSAT成绩80%左右,二类寄宿中学一般需要托福八九十分左右 SSAT成绩60%左右,有语言课程的寄宿中学也接受TOEFL JUNIOR成绩。比较特别的是寄宿初中,寄宿初中一般用TOEFL Junior即可申请,但有部分学校同时也需要SSAT,如Fay School, The Bement School等。

202X年美国中学SSAT考试新政策.doc

202X年美国中学SSAT考试新政策 美国中学的SSAT考试在今年有新的变化,那么考试改革内容有哪些呢?想必是不少出国人士比较感兴趣的问题,和一起来看看202X年美国中学SSAT考试新政策!欢迎阅读。 202X年美国中学SSAT考试新政策 1. 加入基础层次测试 改革前的层次分类:Upper level 和lower level,Upper level适用于申请9年级及9年级以上的学生,Lower level则适用于申请6,7,8年级的学生。 改革后的层次分类:elementary level,middle level,upper level Elementary level:适用于申请4,5年级的小学生 Middle level:适用于申请6,7,8 年级的学生 Upper level:使用于申请9年级及以上年级的学生 新的基础层次的考试,用于美国小学4-5年级学生的入学。之前这个基础层次考试是不存在的。之前的“lower level”用于6-8年级的入学测试,现在的lower level已经变成了middle level,upper level不变,仍然用于9年级及以上的申请。 2. 评分标准的变化 ·评分标准没有变化 SSA没有改变其评分策略,仍看重学生分数所占的百分比。但是,它改进了对于分数的理解方法。大多数私立中学还是会考虑百分比分数而非实际的测试分数。 ·设立标准组(norm group)

之前,SSAT让所有的学生在每一个层次上进行对比,而现在,新建立了所谓的‘标准组(norm groups)’,专为国际学生设定。在这个分类下,国际学生的成绩将不再和美国和加拿大的学生进行对比了。 3. 题型的变化 改革前:考试题主要来源于考试公司专家所出的题库,满足不了美国私立中学的要求。 改革后:题目由私立学校的老师编写,(其中数学和阅读的部分难度都有上升,阅读中诗歌的比重加大) 阅读与数学的难度加大:阅读长度加长,诗歌难度加大。 4. 加试 每个考试将增加“加试部分”(15分钟),不会被评分,但是会被测量其作为未来考试的合适程度。加试包括阅读,词汇和数学。 5. 新的写作题目 旧版: 题目给出一个谚语或俗语,要求学生就此写一篇议论文 Topic: Practice makes perfect. Assignment: Do you agree or disagree with the topic statement?

ssat写作高分范文:Haste makes waste

ssat写作高分范文:Haste makes waste SSAT写作这部分要求考生通过例子来支持或反驳一个观点,所举的例子可以来自个人经历、历史、文学等等。而其俗语、谚语类主题的SSAT写作又有其独有的难度,一直都是让考生们非常头疼的SSAT写作题型。下面就和大家一起分享SSAT写作谚语类的高分范文:Haste makes waste(欲速则不达)。 ssat写作高分范文题目:It is better to be safe than sorry. 写作要求:Support your position with one or two specific examples from personal experience, the experience of others, current events, history, or literature. ssat写作高分范文如下: “Haste makes waste” is an old English idiom which tells us that if you do things too quickly or too carelessly, you are likely to make more mistakes and end up with bad result. It has been true throughout the history and is absolutely true in the world today. I want to sustain my opinion throughout the following two examples. One of the examples that I want to illustrate is the problem-causing construction of the stadium in my neighborhood which was constructed in order to hold the National Sports Game ten years ago. I learned from my mother that the stadium was built only for half a year in a great hurry and haste. At first, all of the people in our neighborhood were supremely amazed at the astonishing rapid rate and efficiency at building such a brand new stadium with the most advanced technology in our nation. But a good time never lasted long, 2 months later, portion of the roof collapsed due to the heavy storm and rain. This leaded to a series of continuing problem such as a big strike of labors and the shortage of money in mending and rebuilding the “new” stadium. Until 1 year later, the stadium which had been previously considered as the first class stadium over the country was reopened to public, unfortunately 8 months after the hold of the Nation Sport Game. The failure of my test may also be regarded as a very persuasive example of “ Haste makes waste”. Once I had a hard time preparing for an extremely complicated but important final-exam in my school. The fact is that I did not manage my schedule well and had to go over all the notes and papers in at most 6 hours, in other words, I did not have time to rest, to sleep, to have meals but just to keep working. This may seem to be an efficient method to accomplish so much work at the same time. But it turned out to be a terrible or even worse time for me. My head kept falling down and I felt drowsy and couldn’t hel p falling asleep. Actually I only studied for 3 hours in all, only half of the efficiency that I planned to reach. There could not be an even worse time for me and I learned a hard but meaningful lesson from it. In sum, nothing good can be done unless you do it with great clam and carefulness, if not, it will probably result in an even more costly and worthless consequence. Just as the example: most of the spelling mistakes are caused because people spell the words too quickly and carelessly without checking them again. Thus, what we should do now is try to be more careful and responsible of what we are going to do and avoid those unnecessary mistakes.
