如何克服SAT写作中的“盲点”之Word Choice在暑假的课程中听到了不少学生对SAT的第三类“stylistic or persuasive elements”的“抱怨”。

"好难找啊喂"或者是"实在是不太想写..."的确，这些抱怨也是可以理解的，第一类“evidences”基本上都是属于辨识度较高的一类 features，学生特别爱去找，去写这一类，同时，第二类“reasoning”的辨识度也高于“elements”。

但是，我相信学生对于“elements”中的“word choice”也是可以把握的；可惜，学生们对于此类 feature 可能有一些天生的“害怕”。

那，学生们都害怕些啥？要如何应对？1、学生害怕单词不认识，找不出来。

对于国外的报刊杂志来说，其文本内容应该是通俗易懂的，而且全文的中心句主旨句已在文后框里写了出来，学生应能基本把握文章的大概内容；在此基础上，“word choice”其实找起来就容易许多。

学生常常掉入的误区就是专门盯着不认识的单词，觉得这个单词自己看不懂，不认识，或者写不出来，特别高大上，于是乎觉得这些就是考试需要的“word choice”，其实不然，不认识的单词不一定就是好词，认识的单词不一定就不是好词。

比如说：OG Practice Essay 第二篇 Martin Luther King Jr. 的越战演讲一文中的好词就可以找基础单词。

第一段中描述the poverty program就用了多个较为“positive”的名词词组： a shining moment, a realpromise, hopes 以及new beginnings。

这些词就属于可以分析的好词，但是难度系数都不高，都是初中词汇水平。

其实，“word choice”找自己认识的单词或者词组其实更好分析，更好写作。

2、学生害怕找错单词或者词组，分析不对，掉分数。

Word Choice (Denotation and Connotation) 外延和内涵In argumentative writing, as in an editorial, authors choose their words carefully in order to best convince the audience of his/her point of view. They try to pick the most precise words to create the proper tone for their message. The way they achieve this effect is to write with words that have attached to them certain denotations and connotations.Denotation-Dictionary, literal meaning of wordsConnotation-Common associations that people make with words (positive or negative)ExampleWord: GrayDenotation-Color of any shade between the colors of black and whiteConnotation-Negative, Gloom, Sadness, Old AgeWord: MustangDenotation-Small, wild horse of the North American PlainsConnotation-Positive, strong, fast, sleek, beautifulThe connotation of the word is why Ford carmakers would choose to name one of its models “Mustang.”Exercise1.I recognized the familiar smell of my roommate's cooking. If you change theword smell to stench, the word now has a __________ connotation.(Positive/Negative)2.What is the denotation of "snake"An amphibian b. A liar, cheater, or fraud c. Snake4.Read each of the following sentences. Decide from the context whether thespeaker is showing approval or disapproval of the topic. Circle the best word.1. “The sooner we move out of this (home, dump),” said Jack, “the happier I’ll be.”2. This cell phone is (expensive, overpriced), but I don’t mind paying extra because it has so many useful features.3. You’re lucky to have Wilma on your committee. She has lots of (original, crazy) ideas.4. Boss Reed and his (cronies, employees) have controlled the politics in this city for more than twenty years. I certainly hope the other party wins this year!5. It was a beautiful spring day, and the (stench, scent) of apple blossoms filled the whole yard.6. I hope I don’t have to share an office with Janice. Sandra told me how (curious, nosy) she can be.7. “I think Fay is an excellent president,” said the principal. “She really knows how to (manage, meddle).”。

Word一次性选择英文或数字, 正选与反选所有中文用查找与替换对于混有英文、中文和数字的文档来说，有时需要把英文单独选择出来，有时又需要把中文或数字单独选择出来，总之，实际需求总是千变万化。

无论要求选择哪一种，不可能用鼠标一个个去选择，如果那样工作量将不可想象，应该怎么来选择呢？能达到这种要求的也只能用查找和替换，当然用宏也可以，但普通用户都不懂编写宏程序，下面将分享用查找和替换一次性选择英文或数字，一次正选和反选所有中文的方以及一次性选中全部英文和数字的方法。

一、Word一次性选择英文（一）方法一：用“任意字母”查找1、用Word 打开要一次性选择英文的文档，我们以Word 2016 为例，然后选择“开始”选项卡，单击右上角的“查找”右边的小三角，选择“高级查找”，如图1所示：请点2、打开“查找和替换”窗口，并自动选择“查找”选项卡，如图2所示：请点击提示：或者按Ctrl + H 打开“查找和替换”窗口，然后按 D 选择“查找”选项卡。

Word 旧一些的版本，可以按Ctrl + F 打开查找窗口。

3、单击“更多”展开，再单击“特殊格式”，在展开的选项中选择“任意字母”，如图3所示：请点4、“任意字母”表示符自动填到“查找内容”右边的输入框中，如图4所示：请提示：也可以直接在“查找内容”右边的输入框中输入^$；^ 表示任意，$ 表示字母。

5、“搜索选项”除勾选“区分全/半角”外，其他的都不要勾选择，单击“在以下项中查找”，选择“主文档”，如图5所示：6、则Word 开始查找，所需时间长短与文档内容有关，内容越多，所需时间越长；内容越少，所需时间越短。

当前打开的文档，内容不多，因此，一下就选中了文档中所有英文，如图6所示：（二）方法二：用英文字母范围查找1、同样方法打开“查找和替换”窗口，在“查找内容”右边输入[a-zA-Z]，如图7所示：提示：如果嫌输入麻烦或避免出错，也可以直接把[a-zA-Z] 复制到“查找内容”输入框。

Word Choice1.F ormal vs. Informal正式/非正式语言学家Joos曾根据正式程度（level of formality）将语言分为五个级别：刻板体frozen，正式体formal，询议体consultative，随便体casual ，亲密体intimate。

例：刻：Visitor would make their way at once to the upper floor by way of the staircase.正：Visitors should go up to the stairs at once.询：Would you mind going upstairs right away, please?随：Time you all went upstairs now.亲：Up you go, chaps!刻板体用于专业书面语或庄严的演讲。

正式体一般用于书面语或公众演讲，它的主要目的是传播信息。

询议体属于中间性的标准语体，它用语比较准确，发音清楚，句法相当完整，语意表达充分，是其他各种语体的基础。

随便体用于熟人、朋友和“知情者”，其特点是：一省略句法，二使用俚语。

亲密体用于最熟悉的人之间，其特点高度删节，使用行话jargon. 语体的正式程度与交际方式有密切的联系。

Written English tends to be formal.Spoken English tends to be informal.举例：1.You’re extremely talkative. (formal)You talk a lot. (informal)You’re an old wind bag.

Abstract words vs. Concrete words Abstract words: virtue, philosophy, freedom, delight, judgment, privacyConcrete words: carrot, star, rainbow, garden, door, roseExample: To feel the power of abstract words and concrete words working togetherYouth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees. It is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60, more than a boy of 20. Nobody merely grows by the years; we grow old by deserting our ideas.Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long as you areyoung.When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with the snow of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you’ve grown old, even at 20, but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there’s hope you may die young at 80.—Samuel Ullman青春不是年华，而是心境；青春不是桃面，丹唇，柔膝，而是深沉的意志，恢宏的想象，炽热的感情；青春是生命的源泉在不息的涌流。
