不同于雅思,PTE考试各项采取交叉打分机制,因此在真实考试过程中,大家在一种题目类型上的发挥经常影响着两个部分的最终分数。例如,在PTE考试的写作部分中,大家SWT的答案的质量很大程度上直接影响着大家阅读及写作两部分的成绩。这也是为什么很多同学在大作文写的很好的情况下,写作的分数还是迟迟无法达到65分或79分,或者在RA和阅读等部分做的很顺利的时候,大家阅读的分数还是没能达到理想的分数。

 

通过分析最近参加考试学生们的反馈及考场回忆,6月过后,越来越多的同学在真实考试中都遇到了Columbus这道SWT题目,今天我们就为大家分析一下这篇最近高频的SWT题目的内容和逻辑,并且在文章的最后为大家提供了这篇SWT的参考答案


以下是高频考题 Columbus 的分析

并附上高分参考答案。

先上原文:

When Christopher Columbus arrived at Hispaniola during his first transatlantic voyage in the year A.D. 1492. the island had already been selected by Native Americans for about 5,000 years. The occupants in Columbus’s time were a group of Arawak Indians called Tainos who lived by farming, were organized into five chiefdoms, and numbered around half a million (the estimates range from 100,000 to 2,000,000). Columbus initially found them peaceful and friendly, until he and his Spaniards began mistreating them. 
Unfortunately for the Tainos, they had gold, which the Spanish coveted but didn’t want to go to the work of mining themselves. Hence, the conquerors divided up the island and its Indian population among individual Spaniards, who put the Indians to work as virtual Slaves, accidentally infected them with Eurasian diseases, and murdered them. By the year 1519, 27 years after Columbus’s arrival, that original population of half a million had been reduced to about 11,000, most of whom died that year of smallpox to bring the population down to 3,000 and those survivors gradually died out or became assimilated within the next few decades. That forced the Spaniards to look elsewhere for slave labors.


第一段:

When Christopher Columbus arrived at Hispanioladuring his first transatlantic voyage in the year A.D. 1492, the island hadalready been selected by Native Americans for about 5,000 years. The occupants in Columbus’s time were agroup of Arawak Indians called Tainos who lived by farming, were organized intofive chiefdoms, and numbered around half a million (the estimates range from100,000 to 2,000,000). Columbus initially found them peaceful and friendly, untilhe and his Spaniards began mistreating them.

 

篇文章分两段,第一部分作者首先向大家介了,在哥布到达Hispaniola个小之前,NativeAmericans已岛住了很久(红色部分)。接着,文章描述了当时住在岛上的是Taino人,他们以耕种为生,并被5个酋长管理,以及当时的人口数量(蓝色部分)。第一段的最后部分,作者介绍了哥伦布在虐待这些Native American之前其实是found them peaceful andfriendly(绿色部分)。

 

第二段:

Unfortunately for the Tainos, they had gold, which the Spanish coveted but didn’t want to go to the work ofmining themselves. Hence, the conquerors divided up the island and its Indianpopulation among individual Spaniards, who put theIndians to work as virtual Slaves, accidentally infected them with Eurasian diseases, and murdered them. By the year 1519,27 years after Columbus’s arrival, that original population of half a million had been reduced to about 11,000, most of whom died that year of smallpox tobring the population down to 3,000 and those survivors gradually died out orbecame assimilated within the next few decades. That forced the Spaniards to look elsewhere for slave labors.

 

文章的第二部分的开部分介了,因为这些Native Americans有金子,得金子,些侵略者便开始虐待他,虐待的方式包括:将当地的原住民视为virtualslaves, 使原住民感染疾病,以及谋杀这些原住民(红色部分)。之后作者介绍了,因为之前提到的的这些虐待行为,当地原住民的人口数量大量减少(蓝色部分),这迫使西班牙侵略者们必须去别的地方寻找奴隶(绿色部分)。

 

通过以上对于文章内容的的分析,大家应该大致了解了这篇文章的所讲的具体内容,这是作答所有SWT的第一步,接着,我们可以将这些内容信息点按照逻辑关系有效的连接成一句话。大家注意,SWT的写作过程要求大家一定要具有将所有有效的内容有逻辑的连接起来,而不是只是单纯的将文章的内容进行机械的堆积。

 

因此,这篇文章的主要信息点可以被概括为以下内容:

 

在哥伦布到来之前,当时住在岛上的Native American, Tainos 人以耕种为生,并被5个酋长管理。但是因为他们有金子,所以西班牙侵略者通过将这些Native American视为奴隶,使他们染病和谋杀来虐待他们,即使这些侵略者之前found thempeaceful and friendly。因此,土著人的人口迅速减少,迫使西班牙侵略者不得不去其他地方寻找奴隶。


最后附上参考答案:

Before Columbus’s arrival, Tainos, the Native American in Hispaniola, lived by farming and were organized into five chiefdoms, but as they had gold, Spaniards mistreated them by regarding them as virtual slaves, making them infect diseases, and murdering them, although the conquerors initially found them peaceful and friendly; thus, the population of the Indian decreased dramatically, forcing the Spaniards to seek elsewhere for slave labors.
