新SAT的目标之一是减少生冷词汇，专门考察词汇的 Sentence Completion 取消了，取而代之的是passage-based 对语境词汇的考察。“经典词汇”，恰恰是那些在不同语境中有细微含义上区别的词汇。很难通过纯粹的背单词解决，一定要靠阅读，尤其是精读泛读结合的经典阅读来解决。不过，先集中学习一下，然后再通过精读泛读巩固也是个可行的方法。但是，集中学习也要有方法，背List效果最差，好的方法是借助词根词缀学习, 外加大量从经典作品中抽取的例句。

新SAT要求的文献阅读，里面经典词随处可见。(这些文献的另一个语言特点是长难句)。

From Federalist Paper I (chosen at random)

To the People of the State of New York:

AFTER an unequivocal experience of the inefficiency of the subsisting federal government, you are called upon to deliberate on a new Constitution for the United States of America. The subject speaks its own importance; comprehendingin its consequences nothing less than the existence of the union, the safety and welfare of the parts of which it is composed, the fate of an empire in many respects the most interesting in the world. It has been frequently remarked that it seems to have been reserved to the people of this country, by their conduct and example, to decide the important question, whether societies of men are really capable or not of establishing good government from reflection and choice, or whether they are forever destined to depend for their political constitutions on accident and force. If there be any truth in the remark, the crisis at which we are arrived may with propriety be regarded as the era in which that decision is to be made; and a wrong election of the part we shall act may, in this view, deserve to be considered as the general misfortune of mankind.

This idea will add the inducements of philanthropy to those of patriotism, to heighten the solicitude which all considerate and good men must feel for the event. Happy will it be if our choice should be directed by a judicious estimate of our true interests, unperplexed and unbiased by considerations not connected with the public good. But this is a thing more ardently to be wished than seriously to be expected. The plan offered to our deliberations affects too many particular interests, innovates upon too many local institutions, not to involve in its discussion a variety of objects foreign to its merits, and of views, passions and prejudices little favorable to the discovery of truth.

Among the most formidable of the obstacles which the new Constitution will have to encounter may readily be distinguished the obvious interest of a certain class of men in every State to resist all changes which may hazard a diminution of the power, emolument, and consequence of the offices they hold under the State establishments; and the perverted ambition of another class of men, who will either hope to aggrandize themselves by the confusions of their country, or will flatter themselves with fairer prospects of elevation from the subdivision of the empire into several partial confederacies than from its union under one government.

想要攻克新SAT阅读考试，在平时应该多注重文章的阅读，了解词汇，还要注意词汇的多义。
