2015年3月份SAT阅读真题解析内容节选：
第二篇文章 10-19题
Q10
答案：C
难度：低
解析：单词题。原句为：The Soviet people didn’t plot how they would build these [social] networks. A选项mark意为标记，B中form意为形成，C中plan意为计划，D中claim意为要求。第一段描述了前苏联的经济形式，即由人际关系形成(“economy driven by human relationships”)，这种形成是自然而然的(“No one was teaching them … Their networks evolved naturally…”)，因此不是计划好的，对应C选项中的plan。A显然没有意义，B和D与原文意思不符。
l 对应CCSS标准：
RI4: Determine the meaning of words and phrases as they are used in a text, including figurative, connotative, and technical meanings; analyze the cumulative impact of specific word choices on meaning and tone.
l 对应新SAT标准：
Interpreting words and phrases in context.
The student will determine the meaning of words and phrases in context.
Q11
答案：B
难度：低
解析：例子目的题。第三段的主旨是描述科技如何使得人们进行经济活动变得更直接更便利，给出的三个例子来自于世界各地，能够简单地接触到各地的人，强调的是科技连接人们的快捷性和广度，对应B中的broad reach。A中的产品质量(quality of products)，C中的可信性(trustworthy)原文都没有提到。D选项与原文无关。
l 对应CCSS标准：
RI6: Determine an author’s point of view or purpose in a text and analyze how an author uses rhetoric to advance that point of view or purpose.
l 对应新SAT标准：
Rhetoric.
Analyzing purposes.

第三篇文章 20-28题
Question 20.
The passage is written from the perspective of someone who is
A. actively involved in conducting hibernator research.
B. a participant in a recent debate in the field of cardiology.
C. knowledgeable about advances in hibernator research.
D. an advocate for wildlife preservation.
题目解析：
难度：难
内容：修辞(Rhetoric)作者视角(point of view)
最佳答案：C
通篇文章都是在讲对于冬眠的研究，故可迅速排除B(不是在研究心脏)，D(保护野生动物)，本题易错选A，虽然作者对冬眠的研究很了解，但并不意味着他自己有参与研究，特别是在32行，Fr?bert andhis colleagues，明确说是别人做的研究，故A选项不妥。我们只能说作者对冬眠的研究内容非常了解。
对应新CCSS标准：

第四篇文章 29-37题
Question 29.
Whichchoice best describes the structure of the first paragraph?
A. A personal history is narrated,historical examples are given, and a method is recommended.
B. A position is stated,historical context is given, and earnest advice is given.
C. Certain principles are stated,opposing principles are stated, and a consensus is reached.
D. A historical period is described,and its attributes are reviewed.
题目解析：
难度：中等
内容：修辞/分析文章结构
最佳答案：B
选项B是最佳答案。在第一段，AC这个人陈述自己观点，认为社会上出现的改变是“not to be deplored, but welcomed as highly beneficial” (12-13行). 在提供了穷富关系的历史背景后，C在第一段总结并给与证据: “It is a waste of time to criticize the inevitable” (27-28行).
选项A不对，因为第一段强调的是整体人类当前的现实情况—“conditions of human life” (4-5行)—而不是任何个人的历史。选项C不对，因为第一段描述的是作者个人的想法和结论，而不是达成共识的结论。选项D不对，因为第一段更关注 “our age” (第1行) 而不是过去。
对应CCSS标准：
Craft andStructure
5. Analyze the structure of texts, including how specific sentences,paragraphs, and larger portions of the text (e.g., a
section, chapter, scene, or stanza)relate to each other and the whole.

第五篇 第38-47题
P1和P2都在讨论使灭绝的动物复活的内容。
P1认为科技可以使已经灭绝的动物复活，并探讨了这样做积极的意义;
P2认为使已灭绝的动物复活这一项目会带来很多问题。
这篇文章一共有10题，我们发现除了常规的双长篇会出现的题型外，意外发现有两题是将在16年新SAT阅读中会考察的引证题，考察考生做题是否真正基于对文章内容的理解。
这篇文中的10道题中，信息和观点题共6道，修辞题1道，综合题3道。这10道题是非常符合美国新课标CCSS中CCR的几点要求：
