我~~小马第三个吃螃蟹的人~
今天本来不想分享今天SAT学习情况的(因为今天情况太意外),但是我大概昨天就说今天要写一篇,我就不得不写嘞。
首先说早晨吧,6:00整起床,看了看SAT单词~~我看的是Barron's的那本,全英文解释,我比较推荐那本,因为那本书给你了许多例句,以后就知道用在哪里,该怎么用了~而且解释也非常好。唯一的缺点是单词太少,我怀疑都没有1000个~~总之今天早晨看了看,把1-3lesson的单词再次过了一遍~~我发现背单词不应该在某一单词的时间停留太长,我今天花了10分钟把lesson1-3过了3遍(但那里单词也不多~~)效果还是蛮好的。
今天早晨第一次骑车上学的,到学校后发现出了不少汗,然后又被学校那电扇吹的,有点头疼~~再讲讲早晨在学校怎么看的单词吧,由于今天有开学典礼,所以一直到9点都没什么事儿,老师说大家看看自己的东西吧,我桌子上放了一本物理,但其实看的是底下放的SAT单词,老师走过来说:别作挂羊头卖狗肉的事情,于是我把SAT书全部搁上桌面了,因为早晨把3个lesson过了一遍,我又过了一遍,随之开启往后三个lesson。第一遍每个单词看半分钟左右,包括读英文解释,和几个例句。做完每个lesson后,都会做后面的练习题,第一遍过去后,再来第二,第三遍,到第6,7遍。然后就差不多了~~
随后我就没法看单词了~~我们说要去看初一和高一军训反馈表演了~~很悲惨~~我被晒得基本中暑了~随后我11点去找校医,说我没事~~后来头愈加疼~~下午上完第一节课后又找校医,量体温后~发现我发烧到了39度~~于是我回家,刚好点~~~我今天晚上继续写学校老师据说留的作业+看SAT单词,今天准备弄到lesson10~~
我大概会隔2,3天就写一篇备考日记吧~~今天算是第一篇~~虽说有点流水账性质~~但是好歹也算是个开始吧 ~~~:lol

关于单词的问题 谢谢你提醒大家 你背的可能是barron 800 那个就是难词表
继续加油 大家都上学了 我明天也要去上学了
l_dongli 2008-9-1 22:45
呃...老三~~~呃~~~我忽忽呦呦就进来了~~~还是鼓励鼓励~~~
一起吃螃蟹...呵呵~我给你们分蟹螃~
继续努力...
LZ写真多...不错加油!!!...9月奋斗月啦~~~FIGHTING!
irondragon 2008-9-2 18:29
呵呵~~谢谢鼓励哈~~~!
那个~~duoduo~~问下~~巴朗难词表是那个蓝黑色的封皮那个上面写着“Barron's hot words for the SAT" 下面中文写着SAT高频词汇的么?
duoduo1991 2008-9-3 07:30
具体什么样我不知道 如果只有800个词的那就是了 继续加油备考 每次写完后都会来看你的备考的
spikeandn9 2008-9-3 08:47
来转会~~还是背3500吧...800的太少了~~~
最爱木糖醇 2008-9-3 20:51
为什么不去看看GRE的那本呢。
不过我很同意楼主的说法,英文解释确实是好。
就比如有一题difiance,在句子里的意思是“对抗”,然而简明英汉字典里确实“挑战”。
irondragon 2008-9-3 21:57
3500的??是哪本词汇书嘞?GRE的~~可以考虑一下的~~但是总感觉GRE跟SAT不是一个样子的~~
duoduo1991 2008-9-4 05:27
3500不是词汇书 是一个附录 我上传了 你可以下载
GRE别背有些名词别的都一样了
irondragon 2008-9-4 17:02
噢噢~~谢谢duoduo啊~~
我再写下我第二篇吧~~
我终于托福成绩出来了……的确很砸,总分才88分,阅读21听力24,口语23,写作20,但是说实话也在意料之中的,毕竟考试超级紧张,所以第一次考成这样也算认了~~目前着手准备看SAT了,可是我发这个帖子发的真不是时候,我第二天又烧了,第三天狂上火,现在还上火……
那个~~我大概说一下吧,还是继续背单词,虽说有些无聊,但是进入状态后,会发现的确背这东西还不是那么慢的。我打算平时没人干扰的时候边念边背~~甚至联想一下乱其八糟与这单词有关的东西~虽说比较疯狂~~回过来看这个单词时也许不会还是不会,但是最起码能够激发一下你背单词的激情来~~(Horse14
我大概打算7天内不打算写备考日记了,因为最近的确需要休息,所以背的东西也不会太多,等我身体好点儿后我再来吧~~~~
spikeandn9 2008-9-5 18:41
哈哈..好好休息~~~
你的托福我觉得是支潜力股!!! 因为你的阅读和写作太低了...相信你准备SAT后你的这两项会变得很强很强~~~加油...
selfmadehero 2008-9-5 19:51
其实写日记好像很累人,所以不然拿出好题分享下:handshake
加油!楼主!
其实你的T绝对可以笑了(跟我第一次相比,呵呵,,我,垃圾嘛)
irondragon 2008-9-6 14:07
恩~~我同意LS的,我以后就拿考题了~!~~
但是现阶段基本都会是词汇题,以后再有语法什么的~~~

[font=Verdana]Without our past,our future would be a tortuous path leading to nowhere[/font][color=#066990](开头句非常好,言简意赅而且不直接)[/color][font=Verdana].
[/font][b][i][font=Verdana]I[color=Red]n order to move up the ladderof success and achievement we must come to terms with our past and integrate itinto our futur[/color]e.[/font][/i][/b][b][i][font=Verdana]E[color=Blue]ven if in the past we made mistakes[/color][/font][/i][/b][b][i][font=Verdana], [/font][/i][/b][b][i][font=Verdana]t[color=Green]his will only make wiserpeople out of us and guide us to where we are supposed to be.[/color][/font][/i][/b]
[b][font=Verdana]T[color=Blue]his past year, I was auditioning for the fall play,"Cat on a Hot Tin Roof." To my detriment I thought it would be a goodidea to watch the movie in order to prepare. For two hours I studied ElizabethTaylor's mannerisms, attitude, and diction, hoping I could mimic herperformance. I auditioned for the part of "Maggie" feeling perfectlyconfident in my portrayal of Elizabeth Taylor, however, I was unaware that mydirector saw exactly what I had been thinking. Unfortunately, I didn't get thepart, and my director told me that he needed to see "Maggie" from myperspective, not Elizabeth Taylor's.[/color][/font][/b]
[b][font=Verdana]I l[color=Red]earned from this experience, and promised myself I wouldnot try to imitate another actress, in order to create my character. Persevering,I was anxious to audition for the winter play just two months later. The playwas Neil Simon's "Rumors," and would get the opportunity to play"Chris," a sarcastic yet witty role, which would be my finalperformance in high school. In order to develop my character, I planned out herlife just as I thought it should be, gave her the voice I thought was right,and the rest of her character unfolded beautifully from there. My director toldme after the first show that "Rumors" was the best work he'd everseen from me, and that he was amazed at how I'd developed such a believablecharacter[/color]. [/font][/b]
[b][font=Verdana]T[color=Green]hinking back to my first audition I was grateful for thatchance I had to learn and to grow, because without that mistake I might havetried to base "Chris" off of someone I'd known or something I'd seeninstead of becoming my own character. I utilized the memory of the ElizabethTaylor debacle to improve my approach to acting and gave the best performanceof my life so far[/color].[/font][/b]
[font=宋体][size=14pt]大概就是这个样子,文章写的好在于对应性很强,写出来的文章的例子非常真实,有自己的思考等等。[/size][/font][size=14pt][/size]
[font=宋体][size=14pt]我们再看一篇由[/size][/font][size=14pt]knowledgeable student[/size][font=宋体][size=14pt]写的文章。[/size][/font][size=14pt][/size]
[font=Verdana]Memories act asboth a help and a hinderance to the success of someone. Many people advise youto learn from the past and apply those memories so that you can effectivelysucceed by avoiding repeating your past mistakes. On the other hand, people whoget too caught up with the past are unable to move on to the future.[/font]
[font=Verdana]Elie Wiesel'smemoir Night perfectly exemplifies the double nature of memories. Wiesel, aJewish man, suffered heavily throughout the Holocaust and Night is rife withhorrific descriptions of his experience. These memories help to spread the viewof what life was like. Through recounting these memories, Wiesel is able toeducate world readers about the atrocities committed in hopes that the sameblatant violations of human rights are never repeated again. Through relivingthe Holocaust through his writing, Wiesel was inspired to become proactive inthe battle for civil rights. Some would point to his peaceful actions and thesales of his book and label him a success.[/font]
[font=Verdana]Despite theimportance of recounting such memories, Wiesel acknowledges the damage thatmemories can also cause. Following his liberation from the Auschwitzconcentration camp, Wiesel was a bitter, jaded man. He could not even writeNight until several years later. The end of the novel describes Wiesel'sgradual but absolute loss of faith throughout the experience. His pastexperiences haunted him for several years, rendering him passive. It was notuntil he set aside his past that he could even focus on the future. Had heremained so consumed with the pain and damage caused in the past, he may neverhave achieved the success that he has attained.[/font]
[font=Verdana]Overall, Wiesel'sexperiences exemplify the importance of the past as a guide. Wiesel's pastexperiences helped to guide him in later life, but it was not until he pushedthem aside that he could move on. To me this means that you should rely on yourpast without letting it control you. Allow your past to act as a guide, whilemaking sure that you are also living in the present and looking to the future.[/font]
[font=宋体][size=14pt]这个似乎结构没有刚才第一个那么清晰,但是在这其中有很多不能否认的优势:比如说举的例子不是那种千篇一律的,估计大家都未必知道[/size][/font][size=14pt]Wiesel[/size][font=宋体][size=14pt]是谁[/size][/font][size=14pt]~~[/size][font=宋体][size=14pt],这也表明他的阅读量很大。而且他能够用一个例子正反写,也表明了他知道这个人的背景资料知道的很多。看看阅卷人的[/size][/font][size=14pt]Comment[/size][font=宋体][size=14pt]吧[/size][/font][size=14pt][/size]
[font=Verdana]Why this EssayReceived a Score of 6[/font][font=Verdana]This essayexhibits outstanding critical thinking by effectively and insightfully developingits point of view ("you should rely on your past without letting itcontrol you") through the clearly appropriate example of Elie Wiesel'sHolocaust memoir, Night. The essay demonstrates clear coherence and smoothprogression of ideas, carefully contrasting Wiesel's success in using hismemories to gain attention for his cause with the difficulty Wiesel faced indealing with those same powerful memories. The essay uses language skillfullyto convey Wiesel's struggle ("Despite the importance of recounting suchmemories, Wiesel acknowledges the damage that memories can also cause.Following his liberation from the Auschwitzconcentration camp, Wiesel was a bitter, jaded man. He could not even writeNight until several years later"). The essay demonstrates clear andconsistent mastery and receives a 6.[/font]

[size=14pt]1.

[size=14pt]Critical thinking:[/size][font=宋体][size=14pt]老师后来给我们举例说几个开头怎么写,老师比较提倡用[/size][/font][size=14pt]metaphor[/size][font=宋体][size=14pt]。用修辞毕竟会显得更有文采一些[/size][/font][size=14pt][/size]
[size=14pt]Following themajority blindly is like buying a wrong ticket, taking you to the wrongdirection. Even though majority ideas will give you the pressure to us when weare ‘different’, we need the courage to face our “faiths”.[/size]
[font=宋体][size=14pt]这句话是学生写出来的,得分在[/size][/font][size=14pt]10[/size][font=宋体][size=14pt],[/size][/font][size=14pt]11[/size][font=宋体][size=14pt]分左右[/size][/font][size=14pt]~~[/size]

[font=宋体][size=12pt]注意事项:
开头最好不用"I",有点自私,与其不如用thewiser people/ the people/ the people in my age...等等。这样子显得更加慷慨。[/size][/font][size=14pt][/size]
