对于备考SSAT作文的考生来说,首先需要来了解一下自己参加考试类型的作文题型以及常考话题,这样在备考的过程中就更有方向和针对性,下面我们就一起来看看SSAT作文题型和话题介绍吧。
一.SSAT 不同级别的写作题型
SSAT 考试写作根据不同的级别,作文考试的题型也不同,以下就是SSAT考试中各个级别的作文题型。
1. 初级考试Elementary Level:看图说话题
例题:
Look at the picture and tell a story about what happened. Make sure your story includes a beginning, a middle, and an end.
1. 中级考试middle level
Choose between two creative prompts两个创意性作文话题中选择一个
例题:
Directions: Schools would like to get to know you better through a story you tell using one of the ideas below. Please choose the idea you find most interesting and write a story using the idea as your first sentence. Please select the topic you find most interesting and fill in the circle next to the topic you choose.
Sample Topics:
I looked into its eyes and suddenly...
The classroom was empty.
2. 高级考试upper level
Choose between one creative and one essay prompt一个创意性话题和一个论文话题中选择一个。
Directions: Schools would like to get to know you better through an essay or story using one of the two topics below. Please select the topic you find most interesting and fill in the circle next to the topic you choose.
Sample Topics:
If you could do something over again, what would it be and why?
He couldn't believe they wanted his help.
二. 创造性作文和议论类话题
1. 创造性作文
其中创意性作文的要求是根据给出的题目信息写一个故事。其实就等于是论文类话题中的个人经历的运用,以这个方法来分析的话其实写故事和个人经历大同小异。当然写故事并非一定要用个人经历,也可以自己发挥想象力创造一个很新颖的故事,或是引用自己平时从书籍,报纸,甚至电视电影中看到的故事。
2. 议论类话题
论文类话题的写作要求是提出自己的观点并用个人经历或者名人例子来支持自己的观点。
对于论文类话题的准备,我们之前非常强调对于名人素材的熟练运用,因为名人素材相对显得比较权威。有同学会质疑说在新题型中我们是否还需要准备名人素材,答案是肯定的:同学们之前准备的名人素材并没有白费。在新的题型中,如果论文话题出现俗语谚语类的题目,同学们还是可以用以往的解题思路来写,即以名人素材和个人经历来支持自己的观点。而如果论文话题是开放类话题的时候,例如最喜欢的作者,最怀念的事,最激动的时刻,我们还是可以灵活运用自己之前准备过的名人素材。比如有的同学就能想到自己最激动的时刻是看到奥运游泳冠军孙杨获得金牌的时刻,那么之前同学准备的关于孙杨的素材就可以灵活运用。甚至同学们还可以通过孙杨的例子谈到自身的兴趣爱好特长也是游泳,并且从游泳中学到了坚持不放弃,以及团队合作的重要性等。
SSAT作文题强调个性化的写作。各位考生在备考的时候要多积累一些素材,在考试中就可以玲离尽致的发挥。
