SAT阅读题练习

　　SAT阅读是SAT考试的重中之重，对于很多考生来说也是比较难以对付的，考生必须在70分钟的时间里阅读7—8篇字数不等的文章并回答67道问题，其难度和强度可想而知。因此我们要在平时加强SAT阅读练习，来看今天为你精选的一道SAT阅读试题。

　　Choose the word or set of words that, when inserted in the sentence, best fits the meaning of the sentence as a whole.

　　Ray was ------- gambler who had seldom gone a day without indulging his expensive habit.

　　A. an inveterate

　　B. a dubious

　　C. an occasional

　　D. a novice

　　E. an obnoxious

　　Correct Answer: A

　　Here's Why:

　　Choice (A) is correct. If this term were inserted into the sentence, the sentence would read “Ray was an inveterate gambler who had seldom gone a day without indulging in his expensive habit.” The term “inveterate” describes something that is established by a persistent habit. If Ray had &ldquo seldom gone a day” without gambling, one could certainly say that gambling was his persistent habit. Therefore, it makes sense to describe Ray as “an inveterate gambler.”

　　Difficulty: Medium

　　Question Type: Sentence Completions

　　SAT阅读一直以来都是SAT考试高分与否的决定性环节，如果细心对SAT的阅读作以剖析，再加上考生自己平时阅读量的积累，并辅之以适度得当的解题技巧和大量练习，SAT的阅读是有章可寻，有法可依的。
