新sat考試新增了標點(diǎn)符號題，就目前真考來(lái)看，標點(diǎn)符號每次必考，考點(diǎn)也越來(lái)越固定。下面是小編為大家整理收集的關(guān)于新SAT語(yǔ)法考試分號冒號考點(diǎn)及真題題目的相關(guān)解析，希望對大家有所幫助。

　　首先我們應該明確，解決標點(diǎn)符號的題目：第一要考慮使用該標點(diǎn)是否會(huì )影響句子主干;第二要考慮是否符合該標點(diǎn)符號的語(yǔ)義作用。

　　我們先來(lái)看分號。分號的第一個(gè)常見(jiàn)用法是：It's used between two main clauses that balance each other and are too closely linked to be made into separate sentences (oxford dictionary)即隔開(kāi)兩個(gè)相關(guān)且獨立的分句，所以分號前后一般是完整的句子。

　　這個(gè)規則可以幫助我們很快的去確定選項正誤。Eg: An art director searched North Africa; I went to the Canary Islands.

　　例題：the name kingman was elected for its two parts, "king" and "man"; Cantonese for "scenery" and "composition."(og:dong kingman)

　　A no change

　　B parts: "king" and "man,"

　　C parts "king" and "man";

　　D parts ;"king" and "man"

　　首先掃讀選項，確定考點(diǎn)：標點(diǎn)符號，在這我們會(huì )發(fā)現至少有三個(gè)選項都是使用分號：分別是acd，但是根據句子結構判斷，都不符合前后是完整句子，直接排除。選擇b ：用冒號來(lái)表示解釋說(shuō)明。

　　分號還有第二個(gè)用法：used to separate the parts of a complicated sentence or items in a detailed list, showing a pause that is longer than a comma but shorter than a full stop/period(該用法在新sat中暫未考察過(guò)，此處只做補充。)

　　eg: The study showed the following: 76% of surveyed firms monitor employee Web-surfing activities, with 65% blocking access to unauthorized Internet locations; 57% monitor employee telephone behavior, including the inappropriate use of voicemail.

　　冒號的作用是：to explain an abstract noun or introduce a list. 冒號主要的作用是解釋和列舉。冒號前應該是完整句，冒號后可以是詞,短語(yǔ)甚至是句子。

　　Eg ：The job calls for skills in the following areas: proofing, editing, and database administration.

　　真題1 ：But Jason Box, an associate professor of geology at Ohio State, believes that another factor added to the early 16 thaw; the "dark snow" problem.

　　A NO CHANGE

　　B thaw; and it was

　　C thaw:?

　　D thaw: being

　　首先我們應該先掃讀選項，確定考察點(diǎn)是標點(diǎn)符號。第二，回到句子理解句子語(yǔ)義：the "dark snow" problem. 就是前文里面所說(shuō)的another factor，選擇c 選項，冒號表示解釋。

　　真題2 ：However, although well 29 compensated earning in 2012 a median annual salary of $90,930, PAs cost health care providers less than do the physicians who might otherwise undertake these tasks. (2016/5月北美真題-29)

　　A No change

　　B compensated (earning in 2012 a median annual salary of $90,930),

　　C compensated, earning in 2012 a median annual salary of $90,930

　　D compensated: earning in 2012 a median annual salary of $90,930,

　　先掃讀選項，確定考察點(diǎn)是標點(diǎn)符號。第二，回到句子理解句子語(yǔ)義：不難看出此處earning in 2012 a median annual salary of $90,930 是做狀語(yǔ)說(shuō)明 well compensated。根據語(yǔ)義分析大部分同學(xué)應該可以很快排除b c選項，而糾結于a d兩個(gè)選項：因為括號和冒號都可以表示解釋說(shuō)明，不知如何取舍。

　　但是根據我們剛剛說(shuō)冒號使用的句子結構規則：冒號前是完整句子。我們可以很快排除d 選項，因為冒號前面只有although well compensated這個(gè)從句。最后選擇a 選項，用括號來(lái)表示補充說(shuō)明。

　　真題3:The designer envisions the game's fundamental 35 elements: the settings, characters, and plots that make each game unique, and is thus a primary creative force behind a video game. (og4-35)

　　A) NO CHANGE

　　B) elements: the settings, characters, and plots that make each game unique-

　　C) elements-the settings, characters, and plots that make each game unique-

　　D) elements; the settings, characters, and plots that make each game unique;

　　同理，第一，掃讀選項，確定考點(diǎn)。第二，回到原句理解語(yǔ)義the settings, characters, and plots that make each game unique 應該是fundamental elements的列舉，因此大家應該能比較快的排除bd選項：b選項破折號使用錯誤。D選項分號前后應該是完整句子。大部分同學(xué)會(huì )在ac之間糾結。事實(shí)上，a 選項冒號前面雖然是完整的句子，但是and is thus a primary creative force behind a video game并非是冒號所涵蓋的內容，是句子的主干成分(整個(gè)句子完整的邏輯語(yǔ)義是：The designer envisions the game's fundamental elements， and is thus a primary creative force behind a video game.)不能直接放在冒號后面。所以a 選項錯誤。答案選c.
