SAT詞匯中的語氣限定詞介紹
例如absolute signal words出現(xiàn)在SAT閱讀觀點句中，表明這個觀點作者一定是贊同的，所以下文的行文方向?qū)⑾蛑⒄摰姆较蜻M行下去。而possibility signal words出現(xiàn)在SAT閱讀觀點句中，則表明作者對這個觀點一定持懷疑態(tài)度，所以下文的行文方向?qū)⑾蛑g論或質(zhì)疑的角度進行下去。我們來看下面的一段文字：
Does the threat of the death penalty deter people from murderous behavior more than the threat of imprisonment for life? We do not yet know with anything even approaching certainty whether the death penalty does or does not deter. The question is clearly empirical, and it is likely that sophisticated statistical techniques will eventually permit us an answer.
這里出現(xiàn)了likely，它屬于possibility signal words，所以我們可以預(yù)判作者對精密的統(tǒng)計技術(shù)的態(tài)度其實是懷疑的，所以下文應(yīng)該是往質(zhì)疑或駁斥的`角度寫下去。而后面的文字 All statistical arguments on the death penalty are, however, excruciatingly complex and misleading. 證明了我們的猜測。
筆者在本文對SAT閱讀詞匯中的語氣限定詞做了以下歸納總結(jié)：
