SATSAT写作SAT写作技巧
很多考生在备考SAT写作时,痴迷于各种写作技巧和写作模版,却把最基本的给忽略了——标点符号的使用。下面,小编整理了4类常见标点符号的正确使用方法,希望能对考生们有所帮助。
1、逗号
1)分开系列成分,有2个以上相同成分,则应用逗号分开。例:My recipe for buttermilk biscuits contains flour, soda and buttermilk。
2)分开连词连接的独立从句。例:Susan’s old car has been belching blue smoke from the tailpipe for two weeks, but it has not broken down yet.
3)用来分开插入从句和短语。例:Gordon, who is a writer by profession, bakes an excellent cheesecake。
4)在引导性分词或介词短语后使用。例:After the banquet, Harold and Martha went dancing.
2、分号
1)连接两个含义紧密的独立从句。例:Whooping cranes are an endangered species; they are unlikely to survive if we continue to pollute.
2)therefore、nevertheless和moreover等词连接的独立从句可用分号隔开。例:The staff meeting has been postponed until next Thursday; therefore, I will be unable to get approval for my project until then。
3、冒号
1)冒号的作用在于表明其后是对前面所述内容的详细说明。冒号之前一般是独立从句,通常有as follows、the following、namely或like等短语。例:Your instructions are as follows: read the passage carefully, answer the questions on the last page, and turn over your answer sheet.
2)不要在动词和直接宾语间放冒号。例:(错误)I want: a slice of pizza and a small green salad. (正确)This is what I want: A slice of pizza and a small green salad.
4、连字符号
1)行末单词分开时使用。例:In this incredible canvas, the artist used only monochromatic elements.
2)表示21-99这些数字和用作形容词的分数时使用。例:A two-thirds vote was necessary to carry the measure.
3)由ex、all、self、semi前缀或elect后缀构成的词语,前后缀和主体之间应有连字符。例:The president-elect was invited to chair the meeting.
4)如果把复合形容词放在所修饰词语的前面,该形容词各部分应由连字符号分开。例:The no-holds-barred argument continued into the night.
5)专有名词或形容词前添加前缀,两部分应由连字符号隔开。例:His pro-African sentiments were heartily applauded.
6)若复合构词法构成的词语容易与其他词语混淆,或者导致元音字母相邻,则应用连字符号隔开。例:Most buildings in the ghost town are re-creations of the original structures.
