SAT写作评分的相关内容介绍.

　　SAT写作算是英语写作里比较难的一项考试，很多同学不知道写作评分标准，不知道怎样写更好，今天我们就为大家整理出了SAT写作评分标准及评分过程，非常的全面和实用，供大家参考。

　　SAT的作文是SAT三大内容(数学，阅读，写作)之一的写作内容的一个组成部分，它同语法考试一起组成了写作考试，写作部分的总分为800分。在这800分中，作文的分数约占总分的1/4，但由于这一分数不仅被单列出来，而且作文的影印件还被提交给各大学，所以使得作文显得尤其重要。可以说好的作文分数不一定会提高你的录取可能性，但很差的作文分数却会使你提前出局。作文的得分范围是0-12分。

　　一、SAT作文考核何种能力

　　SAT作文正象大家所认为的那样：它是为测试考生的写作能力而设置的。至于目前使用的考试形式是否能考出考生的写作能力，却存在着很大的分歧，一些美国的教育专家和考试专家认为这一考法根本无法正确评估考生的写作能力，所以认为应取消它或改变它。更有专家做了实验，实验结果否定了它的评估权威性。实验是这样的做的：在某高中随机抽出一组学生，对他们进行作文考试，记下他们的得分。在考核之后对这些学生进行为期3天的培训和具有针对性的写作训练，经过3天的强化之后再测试他们，却出现了戏剧性的结果：这组学生的作文分数平均提高了3分(12分为满分)。也就是说。经过3天的写作强化，一个5分学生竟然可提高到8分，而一个8分学生竟然可能提高到了11分。

　　在这里作者想告诉大家SAT作文是如此来考核考生的。在25分钟的短暂时间里考生能组织出怎样的一篇议论文草稿。通过对这一草稿的量(字数的多少)，质(论述及例子的好坏)和色(愠色和修辞的水平)来考核考生的写作能力。尽管排出三者的优先顺序是一件可笑的事。但作者凭经验而言，仍想牵强地给出如下的优先顺序：量〉质〉色。

　　二、SAT作文的标准

　　SAT作文题都是议论文，理想的文章应具有以下特点：严谨，清晰的论点，有说服力的论据，恰到好处的事例，多样化的句型，丰富的词汇和正确的语法。美国教育考试服务中心(ETS)公布了各个分数的作文所具有的特点。下面给出它的原文，供读者了解、学习和掌握。在此评分的范围是0-6分。不过作者想告诉大家，这不是作文评卷人使用的评分依据，因为它太不具体了。

　　三、SAT作文的评分过程

　　SAT作文的评阅是美国教育考试服务中心(ETS)召集大学和高中语文教师来完成的。委员会首先培训这些即将评卷的老师，给他们一篇文章，让大家根据自己的感觉来评分，分数范围定为1-6。结果自然平出的分数会有很大的差异。例如，A评卷人认为该样卷中有几处拼写错误，所以扣了一分，而B评卷人认为该样卷中有一处比喻写得恰到好处所以加了一分，这一减一加，就使得同一张卷子的得分有了2分的差异。这是评委会所不希望的，所以委员会会给评卷人讲解具体的评卷标准，告诉评卷人：几个拼写错误不要扣分，一个好的比喻也不要加分，然后大家再次评分。经过这样的多次试评，讲解，再试评，再讲解，最终所有评卷人对同一试卷几乎会给出相同的分数。在这种训练之后真正的评卷工作才开始，并规定每张试卷随机地被两名评卷人评定，分数为0-6分，如果两名评卷人的给分差小于、等于1分，那么这两个评卷人给出的分数的和即为这篇作文的最终得分。例如：评卷人A给了4分，评卷人B给了5分，那么该作文的最终得分是9分。如果两位老师评出的分数的差大于1分，那么该作文将由第三位评卷人来评判。如果多张试卷都需要第三位评卷人评阅的话，那将大大增加工作量，甚至延期分数的公布时间。由此可见，不同评卷人要评出相同分数或相近分数的重要性。所以每一位评卷人考虑的是如何能够同另一个评卷人评出相同或相近的分数。

　　再谈一下评卷人评一份作文的时间。据评过SAT作文的人说，评一份作文仅仅花1分半到2分钟时间，且评卷是在疲倦的状态下进行的。按作者的一位参加过评卷的朋友说：整个评阅过程是一个不连续的扫描过程，分数是在扫描的过程中逐渐形成的，即为一个印象分数。

　　神奇的是尽管评阅得如此快，但评卷人们却能评出几乎相同的分数。这说明他们心中有一个共同的“尺子”。所以了解了SAT写作的评分过程，就可以更好的准备了。
