题型介绍

该题型为写作部分的第1个题型。考生会看到一段文本，**答题时间10分钟，用一句话概括整篇文章，字数要求为 5 - 75 字，回答只被记录一次。**考试中，这一题型通常会有 2 - 3 个题目。

考试中 SWT 的作答时长是 10 分钟。SWT 是单独计时，提前结束并进入下一题，也不会给下一题更多的时间。所以建议不要心急，认真检查答案。

答题技巧

  1. SWT 其实是 PTE 中一个非常简单的题目。这个题有俩个核心技巧，一个是寻找关键点，第二个是怎样将这些关键点串成一句语法正确的话。

    • 在寻找关键点时，大家要注重做删减法，将例子，解释性的语句排除掉，从剩下的语句中找关键句。（例如: 11 February 2009 – Major athletic events around the globe – from the 2014 Sochi Olympics to an annual powerboat race in Norwegian fjords – are striving to neutralize their carbon footprint as part of a world-wide climate network, 中重要的内容只有 athletic events are striving to neutralize their carbon foot print.

    • 在关键点串连时，记得使用正确的连接词 (conjunctions)。切记仅仅使用模版化的...and...，作为连接词。这里也要注意，在WE中常见的 Transition Words, 例如However/Furthermore/In Addition, 在这一题里面不可以用，因为他们需要断句，而这道题的答案只能是一句话（例如however 就不是连接。I love my teacher, however I don’t wanna go to school. 就是语法错误的）

  2. 语法和拼写在这道题中也是非常重要的 （我丢分最明显的地方在这块！），只要哪怕错了一两个词语拼写或者单复数形式，你的这两项的分数就基本没有了。所以考虑到这道题的时间非常的充裕，可以一个一个词的矫正（从头开始，高亮一个词，仔细看拼写和单复数时态，确定OK，再继续看下一个词

  3. 如何筛选观点句？排除不要的句子，从剩下的观点句中选

    ❌表解释/举例的句子不要

    ❌直接引用的句子不要

    ❌疑问句不要（一般只是为了引出观点）

    ❌ 转折前的句子不要 (观点一般都在后半句转折后）

    ❌复杂的从句最好不要

致命错误检查清单

  • 必须只有一个逗号
  • 没有逗号粘连 Comma Splice（即用逗号连接两个完整的句子）
  • 拼写和语法没有错误
  • 字数在范围内（≤75）

常见连接词

（尽量不要出现重复的连接词！至少在猩际PTE模拟里重复连接词会导致扣分！）

    • and: Mary is very good at sports, and her mother is very proud of her

      ↑ 分号这个我还是尽量少用吧，感觉不太用的明白

    • although: Although / Though Mary is very popular among her classmates, her poor exam scores make her teachers worried.

    • **; for instance, ** (前面必须跟分号, 首字母必须小写)

练习案例

  • #1 2014 Olympics

    • Major athletic events around the globe are striving to neutralise their carbon footprint as part of a worldwide climate network, and they are the latest participants to join the network, but are particularly important for inspiring further global action on the environment, as this passion for excellence increasingly encompasses environmental performance, and that investment will be dedicated to improving transport infrastructure and offsetting greenhouse gas emissions.

  • #10 Australian Indigenous Food

    • In order to find its culinary identity, Australia looks to its indigenous ingredients, but proposing Australian native food as national symbols relies more upon their association with nature and geographic origins than on common usage, because of the reality that Australians do not eat indigenous food in significant quantities, and these native foods are not harvested or produced in sufficient quantities to be consumed as standard components of Australian diets.

  • #35 House Mice

    • House mice are ideal biomarkers or proxies of human settlements that can answer questions when there is a lack of artifacts, because they tend to stow and follow humans; for instance, researchers compared ancient mouse DNA with the modern one to find supporting theories of Australian mice originated from the British Isles, and they are expecting to conduct a project to track the migration of mice and other species.

  • #46 Office Environment

    • Research revealed that a company’s physical surroundings can play a critical role in impacting the performance of their employees, and employees can be more productive and less vulnerable to psychological or physical sickness when their offices have sufficient lighting and greenery, but some companies are not content simply to increase the health, productivity and contentment of their employees, because they consider an environment an essential ingredient for innovation.

  • #55 Plants Research

    • All the three major challenges humanity are facing today are closely related to plants, that serve as the conduit of energy into biosphere, because food, energy and climate change are all related to plants, and plant research is instrumental and significant, because none of these issues are independent of each other, thus if we need to build a sustainable future, then we need to apply the most advanced technologies available to study plant life.

  • #81 Wright Brothers

    • The Wright brothers started a successful small business by making bicycles, but they later realized their passion in making aircraft, while other people across the world are also trying to make the same idea come true, it wasn’t until the Wright brothers built their first prototype with a gasoline-powered motor and a wind tunnel to test their designs, and they focused their design on being able to control the aircraft once the pilot is airbrone.
