SAT语法分类讲义+练习

SAT语法知识讲解之as/likeSAT语法知识多而杂，然而通过分类记忆，又比较容易掌握。

因为这类题型涉及的搭配往往比较固定，通过练习，能达到绝对正确性。

接下来，小编将分专题为大家一一详解，小伙伴们可以持续关注。

下面，我们来讲一下as和like。

As和like是SAT语法考试中常出现的一对词，它们都有“像”的意思，怎么把这么“像”的一对词区分开来呢?As and like are often confused since they are both used to compare actions or situations. There are, however, important differences.一、 as1 用as描述工作或功能。

I worked as a shop assistant for 2 years when I was a student.He used his shoe as a hammer to hang the picture up.2 As adj. as常用来作比较He’s not as tall as his brotherShe ran as fast as she could.3 As用作连词，后接从句He went to Cambridge University, as his father had before him.She’s a talented writer, as most of her family are.4 其他固定用法As you know, classes restart on January 15th.I tried using salt as you suggested but the stain still didn’t come out.As we agreed the company will be split 50/50 between us.Their house is the same as ours.二、like1 用作介词，接名词或代词I’ve been working like a dog all afternoon.None of my brothers are much like me.She looks just like her mother.2 Like and As if/As though可用来作比较，三者没有区别You look as if you’ve seen a ghost.You talk as though we’re never going to see each other again.It looks like it’s going to rain.以上就是小编对as和like这两个词的详细解释，有了这些，小伙伴们再也不用担心傻傻分不清楚它们了。

词法和句法1、时态的考点为2道，特别要注意现在完成时和一般过去时的区别。

2、代词考点为1道，涉及形容词性物主代词与主语的性数配合。

e.g Mudskippers thrive in intertidal regions that are marked by regular, cyclicalchanges in water levels, adjusting its respiration depending on how muchwater is available. 其中的its 应该改为their，因为该句的主语是mudskippers。

3、比较结构这个题目出的挺好的，还涉及到助动词前提的问题。

e.g It is widely known that wind turbinesproduce no pollution and thus cause less environmental damage than do powerplants that burn fossil fuels. 一般情况下我们都会这样写这个句子，注意划线的部分，less environmental damage than power plants that burn fossil fuels do. 但是在比较结构中，如果第二个主语过长例如powerplants that burn fossil fuels就过长，是可以把do前提的，所以这个句子是正确的。

4、介词考点为1道，主要是与名词的搭配。

e.g In particular, bimodal respiration—the abilityof acquiring oxygen using gills or through wet skin—sets mudskippers apartfrom their purely water-based counterparts. 其中ability 后面的搭配应该为abilityto acquire。

新SAT语法官⽅题型：句法题（Syntax）例题+解析新SAT语法官⽅题型：句法题(Syntax) 例题+解析题型解读：句法题主要考察的问题有两点，⼀是简洁原则，⼆是逻辑连接。

也就是说，在这类题型中，我们需要注意选项中哪种合并⽅法能让句⼦结构最为简洁。

同时，如果题⽬中出现了连接词的选择，就要结合上下⽂的⽂章⼤意，选择符合⽂章⼤意的连接词。

在这类题型中，⼀般不需要改变原句的⼤概意思，除⾮原句出现明显的逻辑错误。

题⼲关键词：most effective ly combines the two sentencesbest combines the sentences例题⼀:材料：新OG TEST 1部分：SECTION 2题号：13Typically, the ice sheet begins to show evidence of thawing in late summer. This follows several weeks of higher temperatures.Which choice most effective ly combines the two sentences at the underlined portion?A) summer, followingB) summer, and this thawing followsC) summer, and such thawing followsD) summer and this evidence follows答案：A答案解析：这是⼀道很典型的句⼦合并题，正确答案选A。

分析句⼦不难发现，题⽬中的主⼲句是the ice sheet begins to show evidence of thawing in late summer，A选项中，直接在主句后使⽤现在分词短语following several weeks of higher temperatures，在这样的结构中，分词短语与主句之间⽤逗号隔开，此时分词短语在全句中起状语作⽤，相当于是⼀个修饰的成分，因此A选项结构最为简洁，相当于简单句。
