1）Do you agree with the idea that war is never justified?

2）What motivates people to change?

3）Is conscience a more powerful motivator than money?

4）Do changes that make our lives easier not nessarily make them better? Thomas Edison had over 1000 “failures”before he fanally succeeded in inventing the electric bulb。

第一题：Should heroes be defined as people who say what they think when we ourselves lack the courage to say it? 英雄是否应该定义为这样一种人：当我们缺乏勇气表达自己内心想法的时候，他们却勇于说出自己的真实想法？

解题：这道题算是比较简单，同学们一般会联想到的论据是马丁·路德·金、甘地、曼德拉、哥白尼、伽利略、布鲁诺、达尔文等等。由此，我们引出第一类论据：人物论据。实际上，人物论据是我们在解决SAT题目时使用最多的一类论据，大约可以应用于大约60%以上的题目。同学们在备考过程应该找3～5个名人，把他们研究透彻，用到文章里面去。这些名人应该具备以下一些品质：勇敢、坚强、乐观、追求卓越、百折不挠、逆境成才、勇于挑战权威、积极服务他人等等。

第二题：Do you think that ease does not challenge us and that we need adversity to help us discover who we are? 顺境不足以挑战我们，我们需要逆境来了解自己，是否同意？

解题：人物论据。

第三题：Is conscience a more powerful motivator than money, fame, or power? 良知是不是一种比金钱、荣誉、权利更为强大的驱动力？

解题：人物论据。

第四题：Do we need other people in order to understand ourselves? 我们是否需要他人以了解自己？

解题：此题引出两类论据：

一、个人经历；

二、企业论据。个人经历比较简单，写一个发生在自己身上或身边的故事即可。企业论据可以写企业通过观察竞争对手，发现自己身上存在的不足。比如肯德基和麦当劳，诺基亚和索尼爱立信，波音和空中客车等等。

第五题：Is the world changing for the better? 世界是不是越来越好？

解题：此题引出两类论据：

一、科技发展的好处；

二、科技发展的坏处，主要体现在环境污染方面。科技发展的好处很多，可以写医学的进步延长寿命、农业的进步养活人口、家用电器方便人类生活。环境污染可以分类展开：水污染、大气污染、土壤污染、噪音污染、固体废物污染，等等。

第六题：Can success be disastrous? 成功会不会带来灾难？

解题：同上题。如果写不会带来灾难，则写科技发展的好处。如果写会带来灾难，则写科技进步导致环境污染。

第七题：Do changes that make our lives easier not necessarily make them better? 让我们生活变得更加简单的那些变化，是否让我们的生活变得更好？

解题：同上题。写科技发展的好处，或者写科技发展造成环境污染。

第八题：Is there always another explanation or another point of view? 是不是总存在另外一种观点？

解题：同意。科技进步的确方便了我们的生活；但是从一个角度来看，也污染了我们的生存环境。

第九题：What motivates people to change? 什么促使人们改变？

解题：这类题目要求考生自主定义。我们戏称之为“爽歪歪”题型，原因是只要把我们之前写过的题目中的关键词填在这里就可以了。比如说，如果我们写过第一题，我们就可以说Courage motivates people to change.如果我们写过第二题，我们就可以说Adversity motivates people to change.同理，如果我们写过第三题，我们就可以说Conscience motivates people to change.（或者Money, fame and power motivate people to change.）

第十题：Is deception ever justified? 谎言是否正确？

解题：这道题除了可以写自己生活中的谎言，也可以来自于文学作品和战争历史中的White Lie（善意的谎言）。比如，《了不起的盖茨比》中的男主人公，为了获得真爱，不得不欺骗自己的爱人。再比如，南北战争中，南方军队为了保存实力、避免伤亡，利用战术蒙骗了北方军队。我们可以写谎言不好，比如结合时事，有些企业欺骗消费者，由此带来巨大伤害。

第四篇：SAT作文题目类型总结

SAT作文题目类型总结 来源：吾爱视频教程网 http://

怎样准备sat写作：

1，把题目分类：本人大概分了这几类：亲人篇，朋友篇，失败篇(成功篇，这两个可以互相转化，具体见下文)，追求理想篇(比如你是追求金钱和名利还是do what you want),善恶美丑篇，素质道德篇，生活篇等等等——大家可以按照喜欢的方式分~

以下是本人手头上的题(offcial guide的8个写作里面我留了4个给我自己练习用，就不公布了~)

Directions就不打了直接打assignment

Does weird behavior indicate an ordinary or an extraordinary person?

善恶美丑篇，也可以使变化篇。因为善恶美丑可以互相转化~

It is true that one can always find opportunity ,even in trouble?

失败成功篇

Do you believe, with Michelangelo,that it is better to risk failing in the attempt to do

something too ambitious, or to succeed at something you were already sure you could do?

接受挑战还是做有把握的事情?追求理想篇

Do you agree with the idea that the strong do what they wish?

善恶美丑篇，如果很强大但是缺乏正义感的话，就xxxxxx

It is true that there are no ugly things?

善恶美丑篇，Do you agree with the idea that people can exercise control over their fear,or does fear control

people?

成功篇，战胜恐惧

Do you agree with the idea that war is never justified?

Brave heart------for freedom and justice~

What do you think of the view that the worst sorrows are those for which we are responsible?

败篇

Do you agree that it is important not to take things for granted?

成功篇

It is true that the most memorable day of our lives re those in which we underwent some personal

transformation or awakening?

成功篇——见下文

Are people motivated to achieve by personal satisfaction rather that by money or fame?

追求理想篇~

Do people have to be highly competitive in order to success?

素质篇

What motivates people to change?

什么是人改变?竞争呗

Do changes that make our lives easier not nessarily make them better?

生活篇，关于变化的题目好多阿~

Is conscience a more powerful motivator than money?

素质篇

Can success be disastrous?

成功失败篇

其实很多题目都可以用相同的例子，比如说Thomas Edison had over 1000 “failures”before he fanally succeeded in inventing the electric bulb~非常通用~类似的例子还有很多，希望有机会大家共享一下!~

虽然这些伟人的例子很有说服力，毕竟生硬死板了些。本人建议使用自己经历过的事例(或者曾经在梦中经历过。)

第五篇：SAT写作技巧[定稿]

内容摘要：SAT作文是SAT考试中永远放在第一个section考察的the 25-minute essay。在你开始写第一篇作文之前，请你务必仔细阅读CB的the Offical SAT Study Guide中的相关章节。只有它，才能为你指明真正的备考方向。SAT作文如何取得高分呢？我们一同来分享一下SAT写作三步致胜法则吧。

出题特点

首先，我们来关注一下SAT写作考试的出题形式。一般来说，SAT作文题目由Prompt(背景)+ Assignment(任务，题目)这两部分组成。Prompt是给考生提供理解Assignment的线索，而Assignment中的问题则是在作文中要回答的。

由于SAT是针对高中生升大学的考试，因此写作话题不需要具备单项的专业背景知识，但话题涉及范围却非常广泛，包括文学、艺术、运动、政治、技 术、科学、历史及时事。值得学生注意的是，SAT的Official Guide中清楚地说明了 The essay readers are not looking for one correct viewpoint。

所以有些考生企图竭力 寻找一个观点，借此讨好阅卷老师，这种做法是没有意义，也是浪费时间的。你选择什么样的立场其实并不重要，重要的是你能否做到运用简洁清晰恰当的例子，推理论证你持有的观点。

考查重点

SAT作文主要考察的是考生在一定时间内就某个特定话题给出观点并用各种具体论证手段加以支持分析的能力，不要偏题是基本要求。

我们可以看出SAT写作与其他留学写作考试(如新托福)的定位非常不同。新托福是语言能力测试，而SAT作为入学考试，更注重考察一个学生的逻辑推理能力，要求学生的论证严密、有效、有力。因此不建议考生把TOEFL写作的那套东西搬来用于SAT写作上，想取得高分必须区别复习。时间分配

SAT作文考试是为时25分钟的限时写作，但作文的字数没有硬性规定。有些考生疑惑究竟应该写多长?

如果我们参照官方提供的样卷，会发现6分的作文需填满一页半A4纸，基本等同于400字数。在短短25分钟内，要围绕一个题目写一篇不少于400字的有水平的essay，对于母语非英语，特别是没接受过大学英语教育的考生来说是很有难度的。

如何合理分配25分钟?有些考生第一个section开始10分钟后还在思考，也有考生到了最后时刻还没收尾。

建议考生采用三步走的方法：

1.读题构思写纲要：

保持在2-4分钟，最多不要超过5分钟。一定要仔细耐心地读清楚prompt和assign-ment，构思时最好简单记下你想表达的中心思想和打算使用的例子，选2-3个例子为宜，并且想好如何把文章有逻辑地“串”起来。

2.书写作文：

真正的写作时间有一刻钟左右。按照构思的规划作文，同时关注词汇和句型的多样性，避免用词不当。

3.复查：

保持在4分钟左右。写完初稿后，建议至少留2分钟复读一遍。这个环节非常重要，一定不能省掉。首先通读，检查观点陈述是否清晰、论据是否直接证 明论点、论据是否有效效展开、论据过渡是否顺畅、句子表达是否清楚等。之后再花少部分时间来检查语法，着重注意一下时态、主谓一致、代词使用和标点符号等。
