新SAT寫作OG范文賞析

為了幫助大家更好地備考SAT，這里為大家介紹新SAT官方指南OG第三篇練習(xí)的范文賞析，本篇的閱讀文章講述的是兒童從小接觸科技電子產(chǎn)品的好處，此文曾發(fā)表在《時(shí)代周刊》上。下面就跟著留學(xué)監(jiān)理網(wǎng)的老師一起來看一下吧

材料：The Official SAT Study Guide

題目：The Digital Parent Trap

范文：

In "The Digital Parent Trap", Eliana Dockterman argues that there are benefits to early exposure to technology. Dockterman lays the foundation for her argument by discussing the controversy surrounding the widespread use of technology without clearing stating her own opinion. Once she reveals her position, she builds her case by citing credible experts on the benefits of early technology exposure and debunking the claims of technology detractors.

Although Dockterman spends more than a third of her article exploring possible reasons why broad technology access may not be in the best interests of children, rhetorical questions and clever wording hint that she is not fully on board with technological dissidents. At the start of paragraph three, she pits moms trying to "protect" their kids from technology against dads encouraging them to "embrace it". This forces the reader to start considering the possible pros and cons of early technology exposure. Even as she describes the longstanding reasons why some oppose excessive technology use, careful word choice suggests that opponents of technology are anachronistic and overly rigid in their thinking. At the beginning of paragraph four, the capital letters in the line "For years, the Parental Adage was simple" are a subtle condemnation of overly simplistic thinking. Again, in paragraph five, the phrase "fundamental aversion" suggests that those with a knee-jerk distaste for technology are guilty of fundamentalism.

With the reader beginning to question whether fearmongering over youth technology use is unfounded, Dockterman begins citing expert after expert on the benefits of technology on young minds. All of the experts come from well-respected institutions and quote impressive statistics. A professor of anthropology describes how social networking gives kids access to new forms of learning. Researchers at SRI, "a nonprofit research firm", explain that online games increase students' performance on logic tests. Studies referenced by MIT demonstrate that digital learning dramatically increases information retention compared to more traditional methods of learning like reading, listening, and watching demonstrations. Most important of all, technological fluency gives students a competitive advantage in securing lucrative jobs as the STEM fields continue to grow at a rapid pace. All of these benefits form a firm buffer against the unproven concerns of technology opponents.

Dockterman not only quotes those who oppose technology to make her argument appear more balanced, but she also cleverly uses them to undermine their own cause. Unlike the advocates of technology, the opponents of technology do not cite any statistics nor do they come from comparably impressive backgrounds. This makes the anecdotal testimony of a Waldorf School administrator, for example, pale in comparison with the study conducted by a UC Irvine anthropologist. Even the screen time limits suggested by the American Academy of Pediatrics have become outdated because they wrongly presuppose that all screen time is as mind numbing as watching television. On the contrary, actively using a computer or tablet can be "brain-stimulating".

By first acknowledging why some oppose extensive technology use, Eliana Dockterman sets herself up to effectively tout its social and pedagogical benefits. She concludes her essay with this same nuanced logic she began with by reminding parents that despite technology's many benefits, they are still responsible for monitoring their children's technology time and preventing misuse.

賞析：

下面分別從新SAT文章寫作的三個(gè)評(píng)分要點(diǎn)：reading，analysis和writing，總結(jié)滿分作文的優(yōu)點(diǎn)，并結(jié)合官方指南樣題The Digital Parent Trap的范文來加以具體分析。同時(shí)總結(jié)開頭段落常用句型。

第一、 從閱讀方面來看，對(duì)原文全面理解，精準(zhǔn)掌握中心思想，有以下三個(gè)特點(diǎn)：

1、 中心思想，正確詮釋。在The Digital Parent Trap的范文中，作者在首段和尾端簡要地總結(jié)了原文的中心思想：There are benefits to early exposure to technology; Eliana Dockerman sets herself up to effectively tout its social and pedagogical benefits.

2、引用原文，融會(huì)貫通。滿分文章的一個(gè)優(yōu)點(diǎn)就是會(huì)大量自然地呈現(xiàn)原文的細(xì)節(jié)，比如原文作者所列的facts(事實(shí))、statics(數(shù)據(jù))、the results of experiments (實(shí)驗(yàn)結(jié)果)、research(研究)或是作者的personal anecdote(個(gè)人軼事)等。但這絕不是長篇大論的直接引用原文細(xì)節(jié)，而是通過skillful use of paraphrase and direct quotations (巧妙地改寫或者是別具匠心地直接引用)。例如，上述范文的第一主體段落就指出了原文作者Eliana Dockerman 在文中使用了生動(dòng)的用詞(clever wording)及修辭手段: she pits mom trying to “protect” their kids from technology against dads encouraging them to “embrace it”.這體現(xiàn)了原文的細(xì)節(jié)?？梢哉f，這種對(duì)細(xì)節(jié)的呈現(xiàn)和巧妙的引用貫穿于全文的始終?！贰房忌绾螒?yīng)對(duì)新SAT變革

3、引用原文，精確無誤。就閱讀而言，評(píng)判滿分文章的另一個(gè)重要標(biāo)準(zhǔn)是，在引用時(shí)不能歪曲誤解原文作者的意思，更不能與原文作者的意思相悖。滿分文章在引用和分析原文的論證過程中，往往能夠做到與原文作者若合一契。

第二、從分析方面來看，滿分文章對(duì)原文的分析有效合理。

滿分作文在分析原文作者對(duì)論據(jù)，推理形式及修辭等語言手段的使用時(shí)，要分析這些要素在鞏固，支撐原文作者觀點(diǎn)中多發(fā)揮的作用，借此向考官展示自己的分析能力。比如，在上述范文中，作者不僅簡單列出了Eliana Dockerman在原文中所使用的clever wording，而且進(jìn)一步的分析了這一手法在增強(qiáng)原文說服力上所起的作用：This forces the readers to start considering the possible pros and cons of early technology exposure.

第三、就寫作方面而言，滿分考生具備極強(qiáng)的英語語言使用和掌握能力，一氣呵成，渾然一體。答卷使用了not only...but also, for example, on the contrary等過渡銜接詞，使文章結(jié)構(gòu)緊湊，思路清晰。同時(shí)句型多變，用詞精確，文體正規(guī)，語調(diào)客觀。At the beginning of paragraph four, the capital letters in the line “For years, the Parental Adage was simple” are a sutble condemnation of overly simplistic thinking.”
