B.The production, circulation, and reception of public knowledge is a complex process.

C.As part of the general process of the transformation of authority whereby there has been a reluctance to uncritically accept traditional sources of public knowledge, the demand has been for all authority to make explicit the frames of value which determine their decisions.

D.Editors are increasingly casting a glance at the “most read” lists on their own and other websites to work out which stories matter to readers and viewers. (2016-05-Asia)

3. Based on the passage, which question are astronomers unable to answer unless they know a particular exoplanet’s mass?

A.How similar to Earth is that planet in its ratio of rock to gas?

B.Was that planet formed at about the same time that Earth was?

B.To know whether it is rocky, gaseous, or some mixture of the two, astronomers also need its mass.

C.If both planets were transiting, astronomers could measure the perturbations in both their orbits and work out the planets’ masses.

D.They found that the outer, KOI-314c, which orbits the star every 23 days, has the same mass as Earth, although it is about 60% larger than Earth in radius. (2017-05-U.S.)

4. In Passage 2, Thoreau indicates that some unjust aspects of government are

A.superficial and can be fixed easily.

D.A man has not everything to do, but something; and because he cannot do everything, it is not necessary that he should do something wrong…. (2016-05-Asia)

文本循证题是新SAT出题的重点和难点,你需要区分的是,循证是让你找上一道题选项的证据,还是只是题干的证据;前者是两道题,后者一道题。(例如小测中的第一题就是单独一道)

要说解这类的简便方法,那阿满老师可以负责人的告诉大家:“这真的没有”。这类题目就是花时间的题,你要认真有耐心的看下去,当你熟悉之后才会慢慢提高速度。虽然没有简便方法,但却有更为合理的解题逻辑。

1. 寻找题干的证据

这类题目比较简单,只要审题正确,不要把他看成是找上一题选项的证据的话一般都能做对。

将四个选项分别在文中标记出来,看哪个能回答题干的问题。

2. 寻找上一题选项的证据

这种题比较难,同学们尽量在练习的时候就养成习惯,遵循比较合理的解题方式,慢慢地在难题上才能更加游刃有余。

Step1: 看上一题题干,看问题问的是什么

Step2:看下一道题选项行号,浏览过程中对应标记在文章中

Step3:根据上一道题的问题,直接选出下一道题的对应答案处(绝大多数题能选出来)

Step4: 上一题的解题原则是:同义转写下一题选出的对应行号内容

按部就班的再把上面四道题做一遍吧,一定要在原文中标记对应行号,因为有时候多半句或少半句都可能改变哪一个是正确选项哦~。四道题答案依次是:A/DC/AB/DC。

文本循证题是非常需要练习方法的一种题型,距离3月的考试还有两天的时间,大家如果觉得题目不够的话可以到TD的免费群里获取资料。进群方式请戳这里最后,阿满老师祝大家3月考试取得好成绩。
