　　在学生平时的SAT写作练习中，澳际留学的老师们通过长期的观察与总结，发现了6类常见的问题，这是导致学生在考试中丢分的原因。英语的学习中存在很多固定搭配，适当地使用固定搭配(如固定短语)可以使文章表达流畅、到位，但是学生在SAT写作中使用的时候会出现错误，今天我们就来看SAT写作6类常见问题之二：固定搭配。

　　1、 Original: ...there is no deny that a university or college really offers us great enlightment for students future development and growth.

　　Revised: ... there is no denying that a university diploma really offers great opportunities for student&aposs personal growth.

　　there is no deny改为固定搭配there is no denying“不可否认”。原句中还存在表达不当的问题，应该是大学文凭给学生们的个人发展提供了很多机会。

　　2、Original: Modern technologies have improved today&aposs factories technology and brought pollutions to the minimum.

　　Revised: However, with the modern technology, air and noise pollution can be kept to a minimum.

　　“降到最低程度”是to a minimum。

　　3、Original: If you want to catch the pace of the rhythms of the modern world you had better get ready.

　　Revised: If you want to keep pace with the rhythms of the modern world, you had better get up early.

　　原句catch up with the pace的搭配是不对的，如果表述“和现在世界的快节奏同步”可以用keep pace with(与…同步)或catch up with(赶上…步伐)。

　　4、 Original: Every year, Lenovo spends a large amount of money to product environment without regret. By doing this, Lenovo makes a profit at the same time.

　　Revised: Every year Lenovo spends a large amount of money on environmental protection while at the same time makes a profit.

　　原句中动词spend的词组搭配不正确，spend可以表示“花费钱或时间”。常用的搭配有：spend money on sth./sb.表示“在某人或某事上花钱”;spend time with sb.表示“花时间和某人在一起”;spend time(in)doing sth. 表示“花时间做某事”等。另外，原句有些啰嗦，改后稿用while结构省略了一个句子，使句子更加简洁。

　　5、Original: The advertisement as the news inform us the current technologies of a country.

　　Revised: The ad informed us of the current technology, solar, available within that country.

　　“让某人得知什么消息或事情”，要用inform sb. of sth.,不能直接说inform sb. sth.。

　　6、Original: I do admire those people who trust their first intuition for their courage to follow what their hearts believe.

　　Revised: I do admire those people who trust their first impressions, for they have the courage to follow their hearts.

　　“跟着感觉走”的英语表达式follow one&aposs heart。

　　考生应在平时阅读范文或其他材料时，注意摘录一些固定搭配，表明他们的用途范围，并在SAT写作练习中留意固定搭配。当然，记忆一定要准确，特别要注意固定搭配中所使用的词性、词形等。
