SAT考试中我们所说的英语修辞指的是作者的一种说话技巧，是一种更广泛，更有积极意义的说话技巧。即“the study of writing or speaking.”在SAT考试中对修辞方面主要考察学生对修辞法在文章结构和发展中作用的理解。下面我们就一起来看看SAT阅读修辞题例题分析的详细内容。

二.例题分析
例题1
She'd met lots of crazy musicians, but no one like Clayton. He was as obsessed as the others, but he had a quirky sense of humor, a slow ironic counterpoint to his own beliefs. And he didn't look quite like anyone else. He wore his hair parted dangerously near the middle and combed it in little ripples like Cab Calloway , though sometimes he let it fly up a bit at the ends in deference to the campus pressure for Afros. His caramel-colored skin darkened to toffee under fluorescent light but sometimes took on a golden sheen, especially in the vertical shafts of sunlight that poured into his favorite practice room where she'd often peek in on him-an uncanny complexion, as if the shades swirled just under the surface.
Virginia's friends gave her advice on how to get him. "You two can play hot duets together," they giggled.
题目：As contrasted with the language in the opening paragraph, the advice offered by Virginia's friends (2nd paragraph) functions primarily to
答案：break the mood of abstracted musing(打破出神的沉思).
分析：考到了第二段的功能，这就会用到广义修辞的思考方法。如果，大家认可作者对于文章的谋篇布局，段落安排等都是广义修辞，那么我们先来思考一下在小说的写作过程中，作者可能会让小说的主人公陷入梦境或者沉思。当被问到第二段，也就是V的朋友所说的话起到什么作用的时候，我们第一步先来思考，第一段的V在做什么呢?很明显，她在出神，在想象。试想，在平时，同学A在安静地思考一道题，同学B过来拍了A一巴掌，A就停止了思考，那么这一巴掌的作用就使得A回到现实。

例题2
The first attempt to learn more about Venus was to analyze its upper atmosphere using spectroscopic methods. In size and mass, Venus is almost the equal of Earth, and its gravitational field is only slightly weaker than ours, so that logically it might be expected to have the same kind of atmosphere—but this is emphatically not so.
问题：The statement ("In size . . . so") functions primarily to.
答案：dismiss a plausible supposition(这句话用来否决一个看似可信的观点)。
分析：这道题目考到了一个句子的修辞功能，在这个句子中出现了逻辑词but用来跟前文形成contrast逻辑，也就是跟前文的理论形成对比用来强调but后面的内容。
