领会阅读文章题目的技巧
做对题关键就是要快速领悟题目中的信息，归类题目类型，找出关键信息，下面来看下具体步骤。
1. 根据题目关键词来判断题型
新SAT阅读题型分为9大类，考生要根据题目中的关键词来判断，如果是细节题和词汇题就看定位区间那几句，如果是目的题就是考定位区间附近的观点句，主旨题和双篇题就是考文章在关键位置的那些观点句。
2. 通过题型来定位原文
判断出题目类型之后就要能否解题的关键首先是定位，定位分为行号定位、定位词定位和关键句定位。有行号的题目比如细节题、目的题、词汇题等可以直接到原文，找到这些对应的句子，在句子附近根据逻辑找到答案即可。
3. 找出关键信息
考生要迅速找出题干中关键词或者逻辑词，所以也需要快速搜索出这些信息。一般导向性介词(about, toward)后面的名词可以帮助定位或解题，比较重要。
排除错误选项的技巧
由于对新SAT原文句子改写非常多，大部分正确选项都非常抽象，所以对错误选项的排除技巧至关重要。
那么一般我们认为错误选项都是文章中没有提到的信息或者是表达错误的意思这样的选项都可以直接排除。没提及有时候不太好排除，一般可以通过原文中没有这个逻辑或者逻辑都对不上，来排除。如果是对于表达错误观点的选项就需要大家在理解文章题目的基础上在进行排除。
解决阅读词汇的技巧
词汇是解决阅读考试的关键，缺少词汇很难完全理解题目以及文章的意思，更难说要去解答题目了，下面我们就来主要针对词汇部分为大家介绍解决新SAT阅读词汇的技巧。
1. 关注词性转化后意思
词性改变之后词义也会梗着发生改变比如动词变成形容词后意思发生改变，remark除了“评述，评论”的意思之外，还有一个意思是“注意到/察觉”，所以remarkable的意思才会是“值得注意的，不同寻常的”。同学们在记忆单词时如果能够多加了解，深度挖掘，就能轻而易举地记下来了。
2.总结多义词的常考词义
新SAT阅读的一大特色就是考察常考单词的多义，以observe这个词为例，其基本意思有四种：看到，观察; 遵守，奉;庆祝;评论，评说。虽然这四个词义在SAT的文章中都有体现，但目前考查最多的却是第4种意思，尤其是在题干和选项当中出现时。
3.重视形近意异的词汇
这里形近意异的词汇也是新SAT阅读所喜欢的一种考察方式，比如disinterested(公正无私的，不偏不倚的)—uninterested(不感兴趣的，漠不关心的)，两者非常相像，但是意思却相差很多，所以这一类词汇也是大家备考的关键。
书单推荐
一般来说，一个月一本小说，1-2本杂志，是*的阅读进度。
下面是进阶SAT高级阅读的一些参考书目。根据年级和文章主题的不同整理了这些书目，包括文学、科学和社会科学等。其中还包含一些历史文献，主要针对SAT两大主题：美国建国文献和国际*演讲。
阅读原版书籍，从自己最感兴趣的书籍、杂志和报纸入手。确保熟悉美国建国文献和国际*演讲，因为SAT很多阅读测试的篇章都来自这些领域。
