SAT文法答题TIPS

9.When in Doubt, Choose the Most Concise Answer 猜题的技巧

The shortest answer is often the best answer on the Writing section because good writing consists of saying what needs to be said without any unnecessary fluff. Super wordy answers are usually not the ones you want. Of course, this doesn’t hold true for every single question, but it’s a solid rule of thumb if you’re stuck.

在SAT文法考试中，往往最短的那个选项，也许就是最佳选项，因为好的作文往往是越简单明了越好。所以如果，考试中犯晕了，就选择最短的选项。

10.NO CHANGE Answers Are Just Like Other Choices NO CHANGE也是选项之一

Often, NO CHANGE answers are wrongfully viewed as more likely or less likely options than other answer choices in the Writing section. In fact, they’re just as likely to be correct as any of the alternative options. Don’t be afraid to pick NO CHANGE if you’ve double checked your reasoning and determined that it’s the correct choice.

很多同学看到文法题中的NO CHANGE总是一脸懵逼，总觉得这种选项怪怪的，所以做题的时候不敢选这一选项。其实NO CHANGE跟其它选项一样，只不过是四个选项中的一个选项而已，如果你觉得其它三个选项都不如原文的用法好的话，就勇敢地选择它吧~

11.Get Rid of Duplicate Answers 选出特别的那一项

Sometimes, questions on the Writing section will have answer choices that are so similar to one another that choosing one over the other wouldn’t make any functional difference in the sentence structure. This means you can get rid of two choices in one fell swoop.

如果文法考试中，某两个选项在形式或意思上非常接近，那么这两个选项基本可以排除，这样你要做的就是二选一了。

12.Know the Formulas 熟记公式

Although the SAT does provide important formulas at the beginning of each of the Math sections, you’ll be a much more efficient test-taker if you have the formulas memorized. It's a waste of time to keep flipping back to the beginning of the section whenever you think you need a formula to solve a problem.

在考卷中，虽然也会给出一些常用的公式，但是记住这些公式，或者自己常用的公式能够为考试节省不少时间。

13.Plug in Answers 代入法：化繁为简

If you have no idea how to solve a math problem, one way to get around that is just to plug in the answer choices until you find the correct solution.

在数学考试中，代入法是最有效的解题方法，尤其是你找不到解题思路时。代入法，通常分两步走：首先用一个数置换问题中的未知数(不要用0、1或者问题中已经出现过的数)得到一个答案;然后用这个答案去检查四个选项。

比如：

Xerxes is x years old and 4 years older than Zera. How old was Zara 7 years ago?

(A) X-3

(B) X-4

(C) X-7

(D) X-11

根据题意，在题干中代入一个比11大的数，比如12，原题即可变为一道简单的算术题：Xerxes is 12 years old and 4 years older than Zera. How old was Zara 7 years ago? 12-4-7=1,再将12代入四个选项中

(A) 12-3

(B) 12-4

(C) 12-7

(D) 12-11

很明显只有D答案正确。
