SAT阅读态度题如何解答
Jerry was deceitful,but at the time I did not think he was imaginative enough to do any damage.
Question：The sentence above implies that
A.the truth can sometimes be more damaging than a lie
B.the narrator failed to recognize Jerry’s deceptive nature
C.the narrator is intolerant of Jerry’s background
D.the narrator’s view of Jerry changed over time
E.Jerry was unaware of his effect on others
本题能依靠的信息只有这句话,很难找“用语”,but at the time,单独从作者语气上来说,可以显现出作者以后对Jerry的看法肯定会发生变化.以后这种题目做的多了,我们就会熟悉.
理解好每一个表示作者态度的英文单词的内涵和外延,而且如果想让作者态度题的正确度高,那么你必须要熟练的掌握每一种态度所对应的情景,想一想为什么要这样做?这非常类似于你做一种特殊的SAT填空题,即特殊的人物的行为特点或者特殊情景的特殊行为,如骗子(swindler),保守主义者(traditionalist),这样做的目的是为了减少大家思考的时间,对于考试,越是程序化了,越能减少思考的时间,越能提高正确率.
SAT阅读态度题例题2：
A cousin of the tenacious Asian longhorned beetle—which since its initial discovery in 1996 in New York City has caused tens of millions of dollars in damage annually—the citrus longhorned beetle was discovered on a juniper bush in August 2001 in Tukwila,Washington.Exotic pests such as the longhorned beetle are a growing problem—an unintended side effect of human travel and commerce that can cause large-scale mayhem to local ecosystems.[To stop the citrus beetle,healthy trees were destroyed even though there was no visible evidence of infestation,and normal environmental regulations were suspended so that a rapid response could be mounted.]
Q：The passage suggests that the actions undertaken in the last sentence are best characterized as
A.tested and reliable
B.deliberate and effective
C.costly and unpopular
D.preemptive and aggressive
E.unprecedented and unfounded
答案 D 用语：healthy---destroyed,no visible evidence
语调：even though
Preemptive：designed or having the power to deter or prevent an anticipated situation or occurrence (预先做好了一切防止事情的发生)
情景：Iraq war is W.Bush’s diplomatic strategy,which is attacking a potential enemy before the United States is attacked 美国发动伊拉克战争就是出于这样的目的.
Aggressive：(1) having or showing determination and energetic pursuit of your ends (不达目的誓不罢休的意思,在事情上就是做绝了;对人来说就是相当有进取心)
(2) characteristic of an enemy or a situation or one eager to fight (好侵略,富有侵略性的)
两个词义其实是相通的,因为带有进取心的人一般来说都是带有侵略性的.
(3) more severe ,intensive or comprehensive than usual especially in dosage or extent(程度范围比正常状况下要大)
情景(对人)：因为生活而创造,因为创造而生活.人的一生都在自我实现着,一旦创造停止,也就失去了存在的意义,因此我们要创造地生活着.这种态度就是aggressive.
