SAT閱讀的文章大體來說可以分為文學類文章(literature)和信息類文章(informational)，按照出現比例來看，信息類(科學/社科/歷史類)文章4篇，文學類文章1篇，因此，了解信息類文章的考察方法對我們提高閱讀分數來說至關重要。

信息類文章在閱讀的過程中或以表達新觀點並與老觀點形成對比為意圖，或以to persuade or convince readers為意圖，或以解釋科學理論發展為意圖，或以評論社會現象等等為意圖。

雖然信息類文章的意圖各異，但是作者的意圖，驅動著文章的發展，也決定了文章的行文結構，所以在新SAT閱讀的informational 文章中，作者意圖以及行文結構是常見考點。

B) a description of a recorded event to its likely cause.

C) the use of ice core samples to a new method of measuring sulfates.

D) the use of radiocarbon dating to an examination of volcanic glass.

此外作者在表達文章的意圖/目的的過程中，需要運用rhetoric(修辭)來推動文章的發展。何為rhetoric?簡單來說，就是運用特定的詞語或者語言結構使得文章的信息更讓讀者印象深刻。

狹義的修辭，在新SAT考試中，體現在對文章修辭手法的分析，比如說排比，並列等結構。

廣義上的修辭，簡單來說，就是語境使詞語發生了意義的臨時改變。在新SAT考試中，體現在words in context的考查。

例4：Official Guide Test 1 Passage 4

That excuse shall not serve you, Madam. As you know from your own experience, and there are facts that prove it, the daughters of educated men have always done their thinking from hand to mouth; not under green lamps at study tables in the cloisters of secluded colleges. They have thought while they stirred the pot, while they rocked the cradle. It was thus that they won us the right to our brand-new sixpence.

這裡的sixpence，不能理解為六便士，而應該理解為機會。在文章的語境中，sixpence的意思發生了臨時改變，產生了更深層的修辭意義，這便是修辭。考查語境對單詞意思所產生的修辭影響，是SAT考試的重點。
