SAT备考知识点推荐： SAT文法知识点第27期

一、标点符号

1. 含义：

句中的标点符号使用要规范。

2. 类型：

(1)句号和引号符号

3. 用法

句号

(1)连接两个独立句。

①独立句：包含简单句(有一套完成的主语、谓语和宾语的句子)和主从句(有一个主句+一个或多个从句的句子)。

例句1: Tom is a student. He studies SAT.

解析：本句中两个独立的简单句，与句号搭配。

例句2: Tom is a student. He studies SAT, which is accepted by most US universities.

解析：本句的句号连接了一个简单句和一个主从句，其中从句由which引导。

(2)句号与分号的区别

①助动词在主语前，用问号。

1)助动词：can, could, may, might, shall, should, will, would, am, is, are, was, were

例句3: Can you keep the door open?

解析：本句的助动词can在主语you前面，所以用问号。

②助动词在主语后，用句号。

例句4: You can keep the door open.

解析：本句的助动词can在主语you后面，所以用句号。

引号

(1)引用句子，前与逗号搭配。

例句4: He asked, “What went wrong?”

解析：引用的是问句what went wrong，所以前面与逗号搭配。

(2)引用短语，前无需加逗号。

例句5: Defining the meaning of “happiness” is a perplexing proposition.

解析：本句中引用的是单词happiness，所以无需加逗号。
