[新SAT样题1]
[. . .] The transportation planner’s job might involve conducting a traffic count to determine the daily number of vehicles traveling on the road to the new factory. If analysis of the traffic count indicates that there is more traffic than the current road as it is designed at this time can efficiently accommodate, the transportation planner might recommend widening the road to add another lane. [. . .]
A) NO CHANGE
B) current design of the road right now
C) road as it is now currently designed
D) current design of the road ?
This question asks students to determine the most economical way to express an idea clearly. Students must recognize that only one choice (choice D, “current design of the road”) expresses the idea clearly?and concisely, whereas other choices introduce various redundancies (“current” and “at this time” in choice A, “current” and “right now” in

[新SAT样题2]
[. . .] As Kingman developed as a painter, his works were often compared to paintings by Chinese landscape artists dating back to CE 960, a time when a strong tradition of landscape painting emerged in Chinese art. Kingman, however, vacated from that tradition in a number of ways, most notably in that he chose to focus not on natural landscapes, such as mountains and rivers, but on cities. [. . .]
A) NO CHANGE
B) evacuated
C) departed
D) retired
This question asks students to determine which word makes the most sense in the context of a sentence from a passage about painter Dong Kingman. The best answer here is choice C because “departed” is the most contextually appropriate way to indicate that Kingman had deviated from the tradition of Chinese landscape painting in a number of ways. Each of the other choices also conveys a sense of “leaving,” but none is as effective in the sentence, as it would be both awkward and unconventional to describe a person as vacating, evacuating, or retiring from a tradition in a number of ways. In this sort of question, students must demonstrate not only facility with language in general but also skill in using language in particular contexts to convey meaning clearly and precisely.
本题选择C, 考查单词,sat要求考生写作不仅要语法正确而且要求精确和清晰。
