新SAT官方指南阅读第十六篇全解析
新sat官方指南阅读试题解析之文本细读题
新SAT官方指南阅读试题解析之文本细读题新SAT阅读比现行SAT更重视学生的文本细读能力与对文本细节的理解。
College Board 在考试改革说明中也明确规定了精读题的考察范围。
一、题型介绍新SAT官方指南阅读试题解析之文本细读题第一种题型：Determining explicit meanings：The student will identify information and ideas explicitly stated in text. 识别明确信息：要求学生能够读懂文章中给出的明确的信息。
第二种题型：Determining implicit meaning: The student will draw reasonable inferences and logical conclusions from text. 识别隐含信息：要求学生能够从文章中做出合理推断与结论。
第三种题型：Using analogical reasoning: The student will extrapolate in a reasonable way from the information and ideas in a text or apply information and ideas in a text to a new, analogous situation. 运用类比推理：要求学生能够从文章中做出合理推断或者能将文章中的观点与信息运用到一个新的，类似的情景之中。
二、出题比例这三种题型在新SAT官方指南阅读中一共有38道(18.3%)，其中Determining explicit meaning占10道(4.8%), Determining implicit meaning占28道(13.5%), Using analogical reasoning占0道(%)。
由此可见，精读能力是新SAT阅读中非常重要的一项考察内容。
新SAT官方指南阅读第十篇全解析
新SAT官方指南阅读第十篇全解析This passage is adapted from Geoffrey Giller,“Long a Mystery,How500-Meter-High Undersea Waves Form Is Revealed.”©2014by Scientific American.Some of the largest ocean waves in the world are nearly impossible to see.Unlike other large waves,these rollers,called internal waves,do not ride the ocean surface.Instead,they moveunderwater,undetectable without the use of satellite imagery or sophisticated monitoringequipment.Despite their hidden nature,internal waves are fundamental parts of ocean water5dynamics,transferring heat to the ocean depths and bringing up cold water from below.And they can reach staggering heights—some as tall as skyscrapers.Because these waves are involved in ocean mixing and thus the transfer of heat, understanding them is crucial to global climate modeling,says Tom Peacock,a researcher at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.Most models fail to take internal waves into account.“If 10we want to have more and more accurate climate models,we have to be able to capture processes such as this,”Peacock says.Peacock and his colleagues tried to do just that.Their study,published in November in Geophysical Research Letters,focused on internal waves generated in the Luzon Strait,whichseparates Taiwan and the Philippines.Internal waves in this region,thought to be some of thelargest in the world,can reach about500meters high.“That’s the same height as the Freedom15Tower that’s just been built in New York,”Peacock says.Although scientists knew of this phenomenon in the South China Sea and beyond,they didn’t know exactly how internal waves formed.To find out,Peacock and a team of researchers fromM.I.T.and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution worked with France’s National Center for20Scientific Research using a giant facility there called the Coriolis Platform.The rotating platform, about15meters(49.2feet)in diameter,turns at variable speeds and can simulate Earth’s rotation.It also has walls,which means scientists can fill it with water and create accurate,large-scalesimulations of various oceanographic scenarios.Peacock and his team built a carbon-fiber resin scale model of the Luzon Strait,including the 25islands and surrounding ocean floor topography.Then they filled the platform with water ofvarying salinity to replicate the different densities found at the strait,with denser,saltier waterbelow and lighter,less briny water above.Small particles were added to the solution andilluminated with lights from below in order to track how the liquid moved.Finally,they re-created tides using two large plungers to see how the internal waves themselves formed.30The Luzon Strait’s underwater topography,with a distinct double-ridge shape,turns out to be responsible for generating the underwater waves.As the tide rises and falls and water movesthrough the strait,colder,denser water is pushed up over the ridges into warmer,less dense layers above it.This action results in bumps of colder water trailed by warmer water that generate aninternal wave.As these waves move toward land,they become steeper—much the same way35waves at the beach become taller before they hit the shore—until they break on a continental shelf.The researchers were also able to devise a mathematical model that describes the movement and formation of these waves.Whereas the model is specific to the Luzon Strait,it can still help researchers understand how internal waves are generated in other places around the world.Eventually,this information will be incorporated into global climate models,making them more 40accurate.“It’s very clear,within the context of these[global climate]models,that internal waves play a role in driving ocean circulations,”Peacock says.43.The first paragraph serves mainly toA)explain how a scientific device is used.B)note a common misconception about an event.C)describe a natural phenomenon and address its importance.D)present a recent study and summarize its findings.正确答案：C分析：文章第一个段落，作者介绍了一种现象叫内部波浪（internal waves）,而且解释了它们为什么重要。
新SAT阅读题型解析
新SAT阅读题型解析阅读部分一直是SAT考试的重头戏，也是中国学生一直以来的痛点和难点。
这次改革在阅读方面到底有哪些动作?对中国学生又会产生什么样的影响呢?新SAT阅读要求学生在65分钟内完成6篇文章共52道题。
这6篇文章主要分为这三大类：“文学”、“历史与社会研究”和“自然科学”，每文篇幅500-700字不等。
其中，文学类题材占1篇，10-11道题;历史与社会研究占2-3篇，共21题;自然科学类占2-3篇，共21道题。
而“历史与社会研究”这一主题又主要包含两类话题：“立国文档和全球性对话”、“社会科学”。
总6篇文章中，其中有4篇是单篇长文，有两篇是长对比。
题型上，美国大学理事会做出明确规定的是两类题型。
其中语境词汇题有10道，每篇(对)文章2道;例证题10道，每篇(对)文章2道。
与现有SAT相比，新SAT阅读取消了单纯在句子里考察词汇的方式，而强调学生在语境中理解单词;取消了短阅读，所有文章皆是长文;似乎取消了对自传体文章的考察，对记叙类文体的考察从40%左右降低到20%，而科学类文章从20%左右上升到40%。
不止如此，SAT还头一次明确规定了各类文体的比例和题目配比。
新SAT阅读文章的四大题材文学这次改革，美国大学理事会似乎在刻意淡化记叙类文体的作用，其比例从现行的40%将会下降到20%。
跟以前一样，文学部分的考察范围既包括古典作品，也会包含现代文。
文学部分应该还是现代文居多。
理由有三：首先，SAT阅读文章中有96%出版于1900年之后，78%出版于1980年之后(见2013年年度报告文章)，新的SAT 应该仍然会延续这个传统。
二是，在今年4月16日公布的《2016年SAT改革细则》(下称《细则》)中，美国大学理事会一遍又一遍地强调SAT的实用性，强调考试与现实生活和学习对接。
既然强调SAT与真实世界的连接，其作品选择更多的应该是更容易引起学生共鸣的现代作品。
三是，《细则》阅读部分中出现的三篇文章，一篇属于“立国文档与全球话题”(“Barbara Jordan’s Speech”), 一篇属于“自然科学”(“Sea Turtles”)，第三篇则属于“社会科学”(“The Great Reset”)，文学作品则缺席。

新SAT数学全解
在以往SAT 各科考试中，数学一直是中国学生以引为傲的优势科目。
与美国学生相比，中国学生普遍数学知识和计算能力非常扎实，取得 800 分的成绩并不鲜见。
然而随着 2016 年1 月旧 SAT 最后一次考试结束， SAT 考试将全面改革。
那么新 SAT 考试登场，中国学生是否还能继续延续以往在数学科目上的优势，首先让我们一起来看看新 SAT 数学做了哪些改变！考试形式总体上发生了比较大的变化，比较明显的是计分标准、题目长度和考察知识点。
虽然考试时间增加 10min，但是总题目数也增加 4 道，同时易错的填空题增加了 3 道。
中国学生普遍数字计算能力较强，所以是否使用计算器相信影响并不是很大，但是考场上分秒必争，如何精简做题步骤，提高做题效率则是那么在最重要的考试内容和题型方面，到底新SAT 数学做了哪些变化，这些变化对学生备考有什么影响。
考察知识点1. 新旧 SAT 知识点变化：新 SAT 去掉了对于数字或者公式本身的运算考查以及经常让同学们头疼的排列组合题目。
然而，新增了一些部分同学没有接触过或者很少使用的知识点如：置信区间，抛物线趋势等。
不过大家不用担心，这部分知识点大家只需要知道并理解概念即可，并不需要同学们去实际计算。
2. 知识点全分布很多同学看到 CB 给出的新 SAT 数学知识点分类会感到无从下手，其实 CB 的分类主要是根据考查学生在数学技能、实际应用以及是否已经具备好进入高等学府学习的知识储备方面来划分的 ;第一部分为代数核心，顾名思义是围绕代数相关的知识，主要包括常变量、不等式、一次方程等；第二部分解决问题和分析数据，主要考查学生在实际生活中运用数学知识和思维解决问题的能力 (包括阅读图表)，这个部分题目因为会涉及到与实际相关的比较复杂的运算，所以只会出现在可以使用计算器的部分；第三部分通往高等数学，包括对复杂的函数和方程等的考查，检测学生是否有能力进入STEM (Science, technology,engineering and math )领域进行更深入的学习；第四部分附加内容，主要涉及一些额外知识点，这个部分内容是不计入 Subscore 评分的，其中主要包括平面、解析几何以及三角函数和虚数的基础知识内容。

新SAT官方指南阅读第十三篇全解析
新SAT官方指南阅读第十三篇全解析This passage is adapted from Thor Hanson,Feathers.©2011by Thor Hanson.Scientists have long debated how the ancestors of birds evolved the ability to fly.The ground-up theory assumes they were fleet-footed ground dwellers that captured prey by leaping and flapping their upperlimbs.The tree-down theory assumes they were tree climbers that leapt and glided amongbranches.At field sites around the world,Ken Dial saw a pattern in how young pheasants,quail, tinamous,and other ground birds ran along behind their parents.“They jumped up like popcorn,”he said,describing how they would flap their half-formed wings and take short hops into the air.So when a group of graduate students challenged him to come up with new data on the age-old5ground-up-tree-down debate,he designed a project to see what clues might lie in how baby game birds learned to fly.Ken settled on the Chukar Partridge as a model species,but he might not have made his discovery without a key piece of advice from the local rancher in Montana who was supplyinghim with birds.When the cowboy stopped by to see how things were going,Ken showed him his nice,tidy laboratory setup and explained how the birds’first hops and flights would be measured. 10The rancher was incredulous.“He took one look and said,in pretty colorful language,‘What are those birds doing on the ground?They hate to be on the ground!Give them something to climb on!’”At first it seemed unnatural—ground birds don’t like the ground?But as he thought about itKen realized that all the species he’d watched in the wild preferred to rest on ledges,low branches, 15or other elevated perches where they were safe from predators.They really only used the ground for feeding and traveling.So he brought in some hay bales for the Chukars to perch on and thenleft his son in charge of feeding and data collection while he went away on a short work trip.Barely a teenager at the time,young Terry Dial was visibly upset when his father got back.“I asked him how it went,”Ken recalled,“and he said,‘Terrible!The birds are cheating!’”Instead of flying up to their perches,the baby Chukars were using their legs.Time and again Terry had20watched them run right up the side of a hay bale,flapping all the while.Ken dashed out to see for himself,and that was the“aha”moment.“The birds were using their wings and legscooperatively,”he told me,and that single observation opened up a world of possibilities.Working together with Terry(who has since gone on to study animal locomotion),Ken came 25up with a series of ingenious experiments,filming the birds as they raced up textured ramps tilted at increasing angles.As the incline increased,the partridges began to flap,but they angled theirwings differently from birds in flight.They aimed their flapping down and backward,using theforce not for lift but to keep their feet firmly pressed against the ramp.“It’s like the spoiler on the back of a race car,”he explained,which is a very apt analogy.In Formula One racing,spoilers are 30the big aerodynamic fins that push the cars downward as they speed along,increasing traction and handling.The birds were doing the very same thing with their wings to help them scramble upotherwise impossible slopes.Ken called the technique WAIR,for wing-assisted incline running,and went on to document it in a wide range of species.It not only allowed young birds to climb vertical surfaces within the 35first few weeks of life but also gave adults an energy-efficient alternative to flying.In the Chukarexperiments,adults regularly used WAIR to ascend ramps steeper than90degrees,essentiallyrunning up the wall and onto the ceiling.In an evolutionary context,WAIR takes on surprising explanatory powers.With one fellswoop the Dials came up with a viable origin for the flapping flight stroke of birds(somethinggliding animals don’t do and thus a shortcoming of the tree-down theory)and an aerodynamic 40function for half-formed wings(one of the main drawbacks to the ground-up hypothesis).21、Which choice best reflects the overall sequence of events in the passage?A)An experiment is proposed but proves unworkable;a less ambitious experiment is attempted, and it yields data that give rise to a new set of questions.B)A new discovery leads to reconsideration of a theory;a classic study is adapted,and the results are summarized.C)An anomaly is observed and simulated experimentally;the results are compared with previous findings,and a novel hypothesis is proposed.D)An unexpected finding arises during the early phase of a study;the study is modified in response to this finding,and the results are interpreted and evaluated正确答案：D分析：文章当中，作者提到：Ken Dial设计了一个实验，这个实验旨在通过观察幼鸟Chukars 学习飞行的过程观研究飞行进化过程；在实验过程中，Ken Dial发现Chukars配合使用翅膀和爪子的独特方式,于是他又补充设计了一些实验来研究这个观察的结果。
新SAT亚洲首考阅读部分考试解析
新SAT亚洲首考阅读部分考试解析在经历的2015年的泄题，成绩延迟，取消等很多对于大陆考生的不公平待遇时间后，我们终于迎来了新SAT亚洲首考。
小编为了给大家第一时间带来最权威的sat阅读考试解读，为大家带来专业的第一手的考试分析。
1. 阅读难度分析所有题目方面，从出题者的角度看，重点考察学生文章与题目的结合度水平，即能否找到文章题目的对应点;多数图表题可以直接看图即可做出，少数图表题需要结合原文才能选择，不过也不难，能够用排除法进行操作。
寻证题方面，没有像北美三月考试那样，寻证题与前一题脱节，本次考试所以寻证题都是跟官方指南的题目一样，上下紧密结合，说明北美考试的寻证题个案没有在亚洲区出现，考试目前可以放心，不用担心调入陷阱。
词汇题普遍简单，属于熟词辟义考察方向，大家更要注意今后要把熟悉的词汇不熟悉的意思开始重点记忆，不能停留在原有意思层面，同时结合文章分析句义，可以帮助考生迅速排出干扰选项。
修辞目的题目，本次非常友好，没有难为大家，但是还是要结合文章，不要自己换乱猜测，只要自己不乱阵脚，一个一个回到文章，都比较容易排除干扰选项。
真心说本次的修辞目的题是送礼题。
推理题目比较少，记忆中就3-4道题目，也是能够在文章中找到比较明晰的线索，大家不紧张的状态下，可以找到推理题目的出处，当然，有一个推理题是全文推理，这个时候需要考试稳定心态，逐个排除即可找出答案。
互联题出现在对比类文章当中，一共有两道，在把握住两篇文章作者观点的前提下，并不是很难。
另外需要说明的是，《论公民的不服从》在楷德教育寒假班阅读分享课中的建国纲领部分老师曾经有所涉及，梭罗的几篇重要文章老师都有所总结和介绍，建议同学们平时也多积累相关的知识。
2. 阅读文章详解人文历史类的文章，难度系数4颗星是一篇对比类文章，第一篇作者是林肯，第二篇作者是梭罗节选自“LyceumAddress”原文地址，参考一下链接：/lincoln/speeches/lyceum.htm三月份的对比类文章同样也是人文历史类的文章，而那两篇文章中，两个作者的态度并不对立，只是从不同的角度来讲述罢工。

新SAT阅读官方详题解析阅读在SAT考试中占有重要比例，所以在解答阅读题时，一定要仔细，切记将个人猜想或者个人判断随意选择，否则一不小心就偏离文章的中心。
下面文都国际教育小编给大家搜集了新SAT阅读官方详题解析，希望对大家的备考有所帮助。
材料：The Official SAT Study Guide试卷：2页数：457题号：18Questions 11-21 are based on the following passage and supplementary material. This passage is adapted from Iain King, “Can Economics Be Ethical?”©2013 by Prospect Publishing.These human quirks mean we can never make purely “rational” decisions. A new wave of behavioral economists, aided by neuroscientists, is trying to understand our psychology, both alone and in groups, so they can anticipate our decisions in the marketplace more accurately. But psychology can also help us understand why we react in disgust at economic injustice, or accept a moral law as universal. Which means that the relatively new science of human behavior might also define ethics for us. Ethical economics would then emerge from one of the least likely places: economists themselves.18. The main idea of the final paragraph is thatA) human quirks make it difficult to predict people’s ethical decisions accurately.B) people universally react with disgust when faced with economic injustice.C) understanding human psychology may help to define ethics in economics.D) economists themselves will be responsible for reforming the free market.答案: C答案解析: 本题问的是结尾段(lines 83-88) 的中心思想。
tpo16阅读详细分析及答案
TRADE AND THE ANCIENT MIDDLE EAST1.问trade为什么主要，这段第一句就说是mainstay，第二句就给出了原因，说他们没有这个没有那个，所以答案是C。
A说中东有material，明显与原文说反；B的中东很穷和D的frequent travel原文都没说2. repudiate与……断绝关系，驳斥，所以reject正确。
原句说师徒之间是一种契约关系，这个契约任意一方都可以怎么样，下一句又说是一种伙伴关系，也就是没有强制性，所以答案是任何一方都可以撕毁，所以答案是reject。
respect和review都不靠谱；revise单纯的改变也不是作者的意思3.以shop owners做关键词定位至第二句，但第二句没有回答问题，所以往后看，后一句说老板和工人之间的界限被blur模糊了，而且他们同吃同住一起工作，所以答案是D。
A的workers rank原文没说；B说对不同工人态度不同，与原文相反；C的unbreakable contract与最后一句相反4.修辞目的题，先看修辞点所在句子，只是一个例子，放弃；往前看，说有行业协会互助互惠，但这明显也还是一个例子，所以看本段中心句，说这种生产方式倾向于促进自律平等的同业协会的发展，所以答案是C5. EXCEPT题，排除法。
A的support workers和uphold principles做关键词定位至第二句，原文的mutual aid and protection等于support workers，maintaneance of professional standards等于uphold principles，A正确，不选；B的geographic area原文没有对应点，错，选；C的vote做关键词定位至最后一句，正确，不选；D 的equals做关键词定位至最后一句，正确，不选6. consensus合约，同意，协定，所以D的agreement正确。
新sat样题阅读解析
CollegeBoard官方新SAT样题阅读部分解析此次CollegeBoard发布的新SAT阅读样题包括3种题材5篇文章，其中Literature1有1篇，Science有2篇，Social & historical study有2篇。
本文将就其中Literature和Science这两类文章进行解析。
首先来看Literature这篇文章，考察重点是人物描写和人物关系（可参考2009年5月真题“An escaped governess”）。
对照老SAT相关题型和考点发现，这5道题目中只有第4题是新题型，考查的是文本依据（citing textual evidence），这种题目要求在文中找出支持上一题答案的依据，目的是引导学生有理有据地解读原文，非常符合新SAT阅读改革的大方向：Evidence-based reading.其余四个题目在考点设计上与旧SAT类似，只是选项由旧SAT的五个减少为四个，且答错不再倒扣分。
【文章大意】Mattie Silver是Ethan家的年轻女佣，这篇文章讲述了男主人Ethan对这位女佣的感情。
第一段，Ethan初见Mattie时就喜欢上了她，觉得她给自己原本冷清的生活带来了活力。
第二段，Ethan觉得自己对自然美景有一种常人无法理解的感伤情绪。
而当他和Mattie 在一起时，他觉得终于有人能够跟他心灵相通，做他的知己。
第三段，Ethan看到社交场合的Mattie，才意识到他原本以为Mattie只有跟他在一起时才会流露的感情和动作，其实并非他独有，而自己居然以为她真的对自己无聊的谈话感兴趣。
【题目解析】Question 1.Over the course of the passage, the main focus of the narrative shifts from theA. reservations a character has about a person he has just met to a growing appreciation that character has of the person’s worth.B. ambivalence a character feels about his sensitive nature to the character’s recognition of the advantages of having profound emotions.C. intensity of feeling a character has for another person to the character’s concern that that intensity is not reciprocated.D. value a character attaches to the wonders of the natural world to a rejection of that sort of beauty in favor of human artistry.答案：C解析：前两段是Ethan对Mattie的强烈感情，第三段Ethan意识到这种感情其实只是自己一厢情愿，并不是相互的。
新SAT官方指南阅读第十六篇全解析
新SAT官方指南阅读第十六篇全解析新SAT官方指南阅读第十六篇全解析This passage is adapted from MacDonald Harris,The Balloonist.?2011by The Estate of Donald Heiney.During the summer of1897,the narrator of this story,a fictional Swedish scientist,has set out for the North Pole in ahydrogen-powered balloon.My emotions are complicated and not readily verifiable.I feel a vast yearning that is simultaneously a pleasure and a pain.I am certain of the consummation of this yearning,but Idon’t know yet what form it will take,since I do not understand quite what it is that the yearning desires.For the first time there is borne in upon me the full truth of what I myself said to the doctor only an hour ago:that my motives in this undertaking are not entirely clear.For years,for a5lifetime,the machinery of my destiny has worked in secret to prepare for this moment;itsclockwork has moved exactly toward this time and place and no other.Rising slowly from theearth that bore me and gave me sustenance,I am carried helplessly toward an uninhabited andhostile,or at best indifferent,part of the earth,littered with the bones of explorers and the wrecks of ships,frozen supply caches,messages scrawled with chilled fingers and hidden in cairns that no 10eye will ever see.Nobody has succeeded in this thing,and many have died.Yet in freely willing this enterprise,in choosing this moment and no other when the south wind will carry meexactly northward at a velocity of eight knots,I have converted the machinery of my fate into the servant of my will.All this I understand,as I understand each detail of the technique by which this is15carried out.What I don’t understand is why I am so intent on going to this particular place.Whowants the North Pole!What good is it!Can you eat it?Will it carry you from Gothenburg toMalm?like a railway?The Danish ministers have declared from their pulpits that participation in polar expeditions is beneficial to the soul’s eternal well-being,or so I read in a newspaper.It isn’t clear how this doctrine is to be interpreted,except that the Pole is something difficult orimpossible to attain which must nevertheless be sought for,because man is condemned to seek out 20and know everything whether or not the knowledge gives him pleasure.In short,it is the sameunthinking lust for knowledge that drove our First Parents out of the garden.And suppose you were to find it in spite of all,this wonderful place that everybody is so anxious to stand on!What would you find?Exactly nothing.A point precisely identical to all the 25 others in a completely featureless wasteland stretching around it for hundreds of miles.It is anabstraction,a mathematical fiction.No one but a Swedish madman could take the slightest interest in it.Here I am.The wind is still from the south,bearing us steadily northward at the speed of a trotting dog.Behind us,perhaps forever,lie the Cities of Men with their teacups and their brass bedsteads.I am going forth ofmy own volition to join the ghosts of Bering and poor Franklin,of frozen De Long and his men.What I am on the brink of knowing,I now see,is not an ephemeral 30mathematical spot but myself.The doctor was right,even though I dislike him.Fundamentally I am a dangerous madman,and what I do is both a challenge to my egotism and a surrender to it.1、Over the course of the passage,the narrator’s attitude shifts fromA)fear about the expedition to excitement about it.B)doubt about his abilities to confidence in them.C)uncertainty of his motives to recognition of them.D)disdain for the North Pole to appreciation of it.正确答案：C分析：作者在一开始，表达出一种不确定性（my motives in this undertaking are not entirely clear.）在文章结尾处，作者意识到：因为这场旅行，他正在认识自己（What I am on the brink of knowing,I now see,is not an ephemeral mathematical spot but myself.）2、Which choice provides the best evidence for the answer to the previous question?A)Lines5-6(“For...moment”)B)Lines11-14(“Yet...will”)C)Lines23-24(“And...stand on”)D)Lines30-31(“What...myself”)正确答案：D分析：见第1题解释。

文本原文下面是阅读题的文本原文：New York is famous for its snowy and cold winters. Every year, the city is blanketed with snow several times. When snow falls, the city is transformed. The snow piles up on the sidewalks, and people must trudge through it to get around. Large piles of snowplowed snow form on the sides of the roads.Despite the snow, New York never completely stops. The subways continue to run, and people still brave the weather to shop, work, and go to school. In fact, many people enjoy the winter weather. They ice-skate in Central Park and go skiing and snowboarding in the mountains nearby.However, the snow does make it difficult to get around. Cars have trouble driving through the snow, and sometimes they slide on the icy roads. This can cause traffic jams and accidents. People also have to be careful when walking on the snow and ice. They can slip and fall.Overall, winter in New York can be tough, but it can also be beautiful and fun.答案下面是该题的答案：1.What is something that happens to New York each year?答案： The city is blanketed with snow several times.解析：第一句话就提到了 New York 有大雪，并且每年都会下降好几次。
新SAT官方指南阅读第十五篇全解析
新SAT官⽅指南阅读第⼗五篇全解析新SAT官⽅指南阅读第⼗五篇全解析This passage is adapted from Richard J.Sharpe and Lisa Heyden,“Honey Bee Colony Collapse Disorder is Possibly Caused by a Dietary Pyrethrum Deficiency.”?2009by Elsevier Ltd.Colony collapse disorder is characterized by the disappearance of adult worker bees from hives.Honey bees are hosts to the pathogenic large ectoparasitic mite Varroa destructor(Varroa mites).These mites feed on bee hemolymph(blood)and can kill bees directly or by increasingtheir susceptibility to secondary infection with fungi,bacteria or viruses.Little is known about the natural defenses that keep the mite infections under control.Pyrethrums are a group of flowering plants which include Chrysanthemum coccineum,5Chrysanthemum cinerariifolium,Chrysanthemum marschalli,and related species.These plantsproduce potent insecticides with anti-mite activity.The naturally occurring insecticides are known as pyrethrums.A synonym for the naturally occurring pyrethrums is pyrethrin and syntheticanalogues of pyrethrums are known as pyrethroids.In fact,the human mite infestation known as scabies(Sarcoptes scabiei)is treated with a topical pyrethrum cream.10We suspect that the bees of commercial bee colonies which are fed mono-crops are nutritionally deficient.In particular,we postulate that the problem is a diet deficient in anti-mite toxins:pyrethrums,and possibly other nutrients which are inherent in such plants.Without,atleast,intermittent feeding on the pyrethrum producing plants,bee colonies are susceptible to mite 15infestations which can become fatal either directly or due to a secondary infection ofimmunocompromised or nutritionally deficient bees This secondary infection can be viral,bacterial or fungal and may be due to one or more pathogens.In addition,immunocompromised or nutritionally deficient bees may be further weakened when commercially produced insecticidesare introduced into their hives by bee keepers in an effort to fight mite infestation.We furtherpostulate that the proper dosage necessary to prevent mite infestation may be better left to the bees, 20who may seek out or avoid pyrethrum containing plants depending on the amount necessary todefend against mites and the amount already consumed by the bees,which in higher doses could be potentially toxic to them. This hypothesis can best be tested by a trial wherein a small number of commercial honey25bee colonies are offered a number of pyrethrum producing plants,as well as a typical bee foodsource such as clover,while controls are offered only the clover.Mites could then be introduced to each hive with note made as to the choice of the bees,and the effects of the mite parasites on the experimental colonies versus control colonies.It might be beneficial to test wild-type honey bee colonies in this manner as well,in case there could be some genetic difference between them that affects the bees’preferences for30pyrethrum producing flowers.42、How do the words“can,”“may,”and“could”in the third paragraph(lines11-23) help establish the tone of the paragraph?A)They create an optimistic tone that makes clear the authors are hopeful about the effects of their research on colony collapse disorder.B)They create a dubious tone that makes clear the authors do not have confidence in the usefulness of the research described.C)They create a tentative tone that makes clear the authors suspect but do not know that their hypothesis is correct.D)They create a critical tone that makes clear the authors are skeptical of claims that pyrethrums are inherent in mono-crops.正确答案：C分析：⽂章当中，作者讨论蜂群问题时，使⽤了“我们猜想”（we suspect）和“我们推测”（we postulate）这样的句式，还采⽤了“can””may”和“could”这样表⽰可能的情态动词，是为了强调作者是猜测但是不确定的语⽓。
新SAT官方指南阅读第十七篇全解析
新SAT官方指南阅读第十七篇全解析This passage is adapted from Alan Ehrenhalt,The Great Inversion and the Future of the American City.©2013 by Vintage.Ehrenhalt is an urbanologist—a scholar of cities and their development.Demographic inversion is a phenomenon that describes the rearrangement of living patterns throughout a metropolitan area.We are not witnessing the abandonment of the suburbs,or a movement of millions of people back to the city all at once.The2010census certainly did not turn up evidence of a middle-class stampede to the nation’s cities.The news was mixed:Some of the larger cities on the East Coast tended to gain population,albeit in small increments.Those in the Midwest,including Chicago, tended to lose substantial numbers.The cities that showed gains in overall population during the 5entire decade tended to be in the South and Southwest.But when it comes to measuringdemographic inversion,raw census numbers are an ineffective blunt instrument.A closer look at the results shows that the most powerful demographic events of the past decade were themovement of African Americans out of central cities(180,000of them in Chicago alone)and the settlement of immigrant groups in suburbs,often ones many miles distant from downtown.10Central-city areas that gained affluent residents in the first part of the decade maintained thatpopulation in the recession years from2007to2009.They also,according to a2011study byBrookings,suffered considerably less from increased unemployment than the suburbs did.Not many young professionals moved to new downtown condos in the recession years because few 15such residences were being built.But there is no reason to believe that the demographic trendsprevailing prior to the construction bust will not resume once that bust is over.It is important to remember that demographic inversion is not a proxy for population growth;it can occur in cities that are growing,those whose numbers are flat,and even in those undergoing a modest decline in size.America’s major cities face enormous fiscal problems,many of them the result of public20pension obligations they incurred in the more prosperous years of the past two decades.Some,Chicago prominent among them,simply are not producing enough revenue to support the level of public services to which most of the citizens have grown to feel entitled.How the cities are going to solve this problem,I do not know.What I do know is that if fiscal crisis were going to drive25affluent professionals out of central cities,it would have done so by now.There is no evidencethat it has.The truth is that we are living at a moment in which the massive outward migration of the affluent that characterized the second half of the twentieth century is coming to an end.And we need to adjust our perceptions of cities,suburbs,and urban mobility as a result.Much of our perspective on the process of metropolitan settlement dates,whether we realize 30it or not,from a paper written in1925by the University of Chicago sociologist Ernest W.Burgess.It was Burgess who defined four urban/suburban zones of settlement:a central business district;an area of manufacturing just beyond it;then a residential area inhabited by the industrial andimmigrant working class;and finally an outer enclave of single-family dwellings.Burgess was35right about the urban America of1925;he was right about the urban America of1974.Virtually every city in the country had a downtown,where the commercial life of the metropolis wasconducted;it had a factory district just beyond;it had districts of working-class residences justbeyond that;and it had residential suburbs for the wealthy and the upper middle class at the far end of the continuum.As a family moved up the economic ladder,it also moved outward from40crowded working-class districts to more spacious apartments and,eventually,to a suburban home.The suburbs of Burgess’s time bore little resemblance to those at the end of the twentieth century, but the theory still essentially worked.People moved ahead in life by moving farther out.But in the past decade,in quite a few places,this model has ceased to describe reality.There are still downtown commercial districts,but there are no factory districts lying next to them.There are scarcely any factories at all.These close-in parts of the city,whose few residents Burgess45described as dwelling in“submerged regions of poverty,degradation and disease,”areincreasingly the preserve of the affluent who work in the commercial core.And just as crucially newcomers to America are not settling on the inside and accumulating the resources to move out;they are living in the suburbs from day one.11、Which choice best summarizes the first paragraph of the passage(lines1-19)?A)The2010census demonstrated a sizeable growth in the number of middle-class families moving into inner cities.B)The2010census is not a reliable instrument for measuring population trends in American cities.C)Population growth and demographic inversion are distinct phenomena,and demographic inversion is evident in many American cities.D)Population growth in American cities has been increasing since roughly2000,while suburban populations have decreased.正确答案：C分析：文章第一个段落重点讲述：人口反演不同于人口增长。
新sat阅读题型图表题解析
新sat阅读题型图表题解析随着新SAT考纲、样题、官方指南等的陆续发布，新SAT题目揭开了神秘面纱，其中阅读版块增加了全新的题型—循证题和图表题，本篇文章就来详细解读一下图表题到底是什么。
题目设置意义美国的新课标中(CCSS)，给全美国的高中生阅读能力提出了10条明确标准，其中第7条为“Integrate and evaluate content presented in diverse formats and media, including visually and quantitatively, as well as words.”看似高大上，其实是要求学生能够看懂各种形式的信息的，比如视频的、图片的、图表的、文字的等等。
而抱美国新课标大腿的新SAT考试，在考纲中的阅读版块也要求了这样一个能力点“Analyzing quantitative information: The students will analyze information presented quantitatively in such forms as graphs, tables, and charts and/or relate that information to information presented in text.”意思就是你需要看懂各种图表(柱形哒，饼形哒，表格哒等等)，还得会根据图表和文章内容来作答……为什么美国新课标和新SAT都这么要求呢?其实是想让学生培养分析数据及整合信息的能力，以便在大学能更高效地学习。
大家听说过，在美国大学学习中，学生需要大量搜集、阅读和理解各种形式的文章和信息，通过这一过程来学习和理解知识。
但别怕，其实我们在初高中的时候也接触到了，想想我们学习过的数学、地理、物理、化学等学科知识，虽然不堪回首，但课本上各种图表、图片和数据，与课本中的知识相结合，让我们高冷的课本“暖”了起来。
TPO-16 Reading 2解析
Q1正确答案：D解析：interplay“相互作用”，所以D的interaction正确。
从单词本身看，inter 表示“在……之间”，play是“起……作用”，所以interplay是“相互作用”。
原句说观察、预测与实验相互作用，所以答案是interaction，A“顺序”B“解释”C“要求”都错误。
Q2正确答案：C解析：以increasing atomic mass做关键词定位至第一句倒数第三句，提到一些连续的元素却分属不同的化学组，并且发现在这种排列方式下，元素群组的顺序是固定的且定期重复。
所以正确答案是C。
A的alkali metals，B same atomic mass 原文都没提及；D 相邻元素性质相近，与原文相反。
Q3正确答案：A解析：修辞目的题，根据题干关键词leave gaps定位到第二段第二句，提到两个人都非常有远见，在周期表中给没发现的元素留了空隙，也就是A说的他们足够自信认为元素周期律适用于所有元素；B的wrong和C的unwilling都跟原文相反；D的disagreement原文未提及。
Q4正确答案：B解析：修辞目的题，先找到两个人名，门捷列夫比迈耶更为大胆，他甚至做出假设，如果周期表按原子质量排列，但元素位置不对的话，那么原子质量也是错的。
也就是选项B说的门捷列夫认为以前被大家所认识到的一些东西是错误的。
两个人的意见是一样的，只是门捷列夫更进一步，所以A和C说两者的意见有差异不正确；D说不是按原子量排序，错误Q5正确答案：A解析：以changing the atomic mass of indium做关键词定位至第五句、第六句，提到先前按原子质量计算，铟应该在砷和硒之间，但由于元素周期表中砷和硒之间没有空位，所以铟的原子量是错的。
因为前面提到如果原子量把元素放错了位置，就说明原子量是错的，后一句是为了证明这个观点的，所以答案是A。
B的experimental evidence和D的化学性质相似原文都未提及；C有space与原文相反。
新SAT官方指南发布 新SAT阅读精要讲解汇总
《新SAT官方指南》的第二部分对新SAT考试中的实证式阅读与写作部分进行了详细介绍。
实证式阅读与写作部分包含阅读与语法两个小部分，它们有各自的小分，又一起占整个新SAT考试分数1600分中的800分。
与此前公布的内容一致，书中71-72页概览了阅读部分的基本情况。
新SAT阅读一览无余问题总数：52个答题时间：65分钟(每题平均1分15秒，含原文阅读时间)文章数：4个单篇加一个双篇文章长度：500-750词/篇，5篇共计阅读量3，250词文章题材：一篇文学、两篇历史/社会研究(一篇社会科学，一篇美国建国文件或重大的全球对话文本)、两篇科学文章难度：9-10年级直至大学一年级每篇问题数：10或11个分数：除了与语法部分一起占800分以外，阅读部分还单独报告分数(10-40)，而且报告下列方面的小分：——掌握证据——上下文词汇的掌握——历史/社会研究方面的分析能力——科学方面的分析能力新SAT阅读文章透析目前的SAT阅读文章的长度差别大，短文章只有100词汇不到，长文章达1000词，不同题材的文章各自所占比例不确定。
为了避免偏见，经常选择涉及美国少数民族或移民类的文章。
新SAT阅读文章的选择除了保留目前SAT的长双(两篇题材相近的较长的文章构成一组)文章以外，其他文章的选择类似其竞争对手ACT的文章选择，各篇文章之间的长度(500-750词/篇)比较均衡，文章后面的问题数(10或11个)也基本一致。
而且，各类题材(文学、历史/社会研究、科学)文章所占比例每次考试都固定，不象目前考试中各类题材文章的比例经常出现变化。
《新SAT官方指南》的样题和四套练习题都把文学题材(通常为小说或故事)排在第一篇文章，而在目前的考试中小说或故事在试卷中的位置不确定。
由于阅读量大，新SAT阅读的处理对于速度有较高要求，而考生对于不同题材的文章的阅读速度不同。
但是，由于新SAT阅读文章的做题时间是作为一个整体提供的，考生可以根据自己的情况以及文章的难易选择阅读文章的顺序——先处理哪篇，后处理哪篇。

新SAT官方指南阅读第十六篇全解析This passage is adapted from MacDonald Harris,The Balloonist.©2011by The Estate of Donald Heiney.During the summer of1897,the narrator of this story,a fictional Swedish scientist,has set out for the North Pole in ahydrogen-powered balloon.My emotions are complicated and not readily verifiable.I feel a vast yearning that is simultaneously a pleasure and a pain.I am certain of the consummation of this yearning,but Idon’t know yet what form it will take,since I do not understand quite what it is that the yearning desires.For the first time there is borne in upon me the full truth of what I myself said to the doctor only an hour ago:that my motives in this undertaking are not entirely clear.For years,for a5lifetime,the machinery of my destiny has worked in secret to prepare for this moment;itsclockwork has moved exactly toward this time and place and no other.Rising slowly from theearth that bore me and gave me sustenance,I am carried helplessly toward an uninhabited andhostile,or at best indifferent,part of the earth,littered with the bones of explorers and the wrecks of ships,frozen supply caches,messages scrawled with chilled fingers and hidden in cairns that no 10eye will ever see.Nobody has succeeded in this thing,and many have died.Yet in freely willing this enterprise,in choosing this moment and no other when the south wind will carry me exactly northward at a velocity of eight knots,I have converted the machinery of my fate into the servant of my will.All this I understand,as I understand each detail of the technique by which this is15carried out.What I don’t understand is why I am so intent on going to this particular place.Whowants the North Pole!What good is it!Can you eat it?Will it carry you from Gothenburg toMalmölike a railway?The Danish ministers have declared from their pulpits that participation in polar expeditions is beneficial to the soul’s eternal well-being,or so I read in a newspaper.It isn’t clear how this doctrine is to be interpreted,except that the Pole is something difficult orimpossible to attain which must nevertheless be sought for,because man is condemned to seek out 20and know everything whether or not the knowledge gives him pleasure.In short,it is the sameunthinking lust for knowledge that drove our First Parents out of the garden.And suppose you were to find it in spite of all,this wonderful place that everybody is so anxious to stand on!What would you find?Exactly nothing.A point precisely identical to all the 25others in a completely featureless wasteland stretching around it for hundreds of miles.It is anabstraction,a mathematical fiction.No one but a Swedish madman could take the slightest interest in it.Here I am.The wind is still from the south,bearing us steadily northward at the speed of a trotting dog.Behind us,perhaps forever,lie the Cities of Men with their teacups and their brass bedsteads.I am going forth of my own volition to join the ghosts of Bering and poor Franklin,of frozen De Long and his men.What I am on the brink of knowing,I now see,is not an ephemeral 30mathematical spot but myself.The doctor was right,even though I dislike him.Fundamentally I am a dangerous madman,and what I do is both a challenge to my egotism and a surrender to it.1、Over the course of the passage,the narrator’s attitude shifts fromA)fear about the expedition to excitement about it.B)doubt about his abilities to confidence in them.C)uncertainty of his motives to recognition of them.D)disdain for the North Pole to appreciation of it.正确答案：C分析：作者在一开始，表达出一种不确定性（my motives in this undertaking are not entirely clear.）在文章结尾处，作者意识到：因为这场旅行，他正在认识自己（What I am on the brink of knowing,I now see,is not an ephemeral mathematical spot but myself.）2、Which choice provides the best evidence for the answer to the previous question?A)Lines5-6(“For...moment”)B)Lines11-14(“Yet...will”)C)Lines23-24(“And...stand on”)D)Lines30-31(“What...myself”)正确答案：D分析：见第1题解释。
3、As used in line1,“not readily verifiable”most nearly meansA)unable to be authenticated.B)likely to be contradicted.C)without empirical support.D)not completely understood.正确答案：D分析：我的感情是复杂的和无法理解(not readily verifiable)的。
这一点可以通过第一段最后一句话“since I do not understand quite what it is that the yearning desires”找到线索。
4、The sentence in lines5-6(“For years...other”)mainly serves toA)expose a side of the narrator that he prefers to keep hidden.B)demonstrate that the narrator thinks in a methodical and scientific manner.C)show that the narrator feels himself to be influenced by powerful and independent forces.D)emphasize the length of time during which the narrator has prepared for his expedition.正确答案：C分析：文章当中，作者说：命运在悄悄安排，让他准备这场旅行；命运的发条，促使他在这个时间这个地点做出选择。
