ACT特有的題型(推薦)

2014-01-15

科學(Science)

這是ACT特有的題型,主要涉及科學領(lǐng)域,如:物理、化學、生物學、地質(zhì)學、氣象學等,考察學生對實驗數(shù)據(jù)進行閱讀、理解、分析和推理的能力。初次接觸到科學推理,基本上所有學生會瞬間崩潰,但實際上科學是外強中干,貌似艱難無比,實則掌握了正確的方法和規(guī)律,就會柳暗花明。

ACT考試科學部分介紹-ACT Science Test

Length:35 Minutes

Question Types:

10 Social Studies Questions

10 Natural Sciences Questions

10 Prose Fiction Questions

10 Humanities Questions

On the ACT Science Test, you'll have 35 minutes to answer 40 questions—that's about 50 seconds per question! The section contains seven passages, each followed by 5-7 questions.

You don't have to be a scientist or know the atomic number of Cadmium to succeed on the ACT Science Test. All that's required is common sense. You'll be given passages containing various kinds of scientific information—drawn from the fields of biology, chemistry, physics, geology, astronomy, and meteorology—which you'll have to understand and use as a basis for inferences.

ACT Science Question Format

Usually there are six passages that present scientific data, often based on specific experiments. Also, there's usually one passage in which two scientists state opposing views on the same issue. Each passage is followed by 5-7 questions. A warning: some passages will be very difficult to understand, but they'll usually make up for that fact by having many easy questions attached to them. The test makers do show some mercy once in a while.

Top 8 Strategies for the ACT Science Test

Read through the instructions carefully, to orient yourself

Don't worry about details on your initial read-through

Always refer to the passage and the question-stem before selecting an answer

In order to read most graphs and tables, you have to do four things: determine what's being represented, determine what the axes represent, take note of units of measurement, and look for trends in the data

When reading data, you should be on the lookout for the three characteristic patterns or trends: extremes (maximums and minimums), critical points (or points of change), and direct or inverse variation (or proportionality)

If time is a problem, focus on the questions that require analyzing data from just a single table or graph

Don't waste time trying to figure out which scientist is "right." Just worry about understanding their different viewpoints

Don't panic if you don't understand both scientists' positions. Many questions will hinge on just one of the argument

文章改錯(English)

這是ACT考試特有的題型,要求對文章中可能存在的錯誤或不甚完美之處選擇佳的改進方案。大部分題目類似SAT的篇章改善,但也有個別題目涉及文章銜接,如:提供4個句子,問在兩段中插入哪一句能夠使得上下兩段銜接得更好。

以上就是關(guān)于ACT考試特色題型的介紹。包括了對科學部分和文章改錯部分的介紹,非常詳細。同學們在備考過程中,一定要對以上特色題型做到了熟于心,真正拿下ACT考試。
