PTE写作SWT题型有哪些高分技巧

今天羊驼给各位正在准备PTE考试的同学们带来了PTE考试中的SWT题型的例题解析：Illusion，今天这篇文章很有意思，讲的其实是我们社会当中经常容易发生的事情，甚至我们周围所有人都干的这件事情。这道题只有一段，如果是分段的话，每段可能都可以抓起信息，但一段抓核心词就比较难，所以一定要关注信号词，一些指示去寻找这篇文章重点的一些单词和句子。

一、PTE写作SWT例题的原文：

According to researchers, the invisibility cloak illusion stems from the belief that we are much more socially observant than the people around us. This means that, while we watch and wonder about other people as much as possible, we often think that people around us are less aware. This illusion occurs because, while we are fully aware of our own impressions and speculations about other people, we have no idea about what those other people are thinking unless they choose to share with us, something that rarely happens except in exceptional circumstances. To better understand what is happening, it is important to consider the groundbreaking research by Amos Tversky and Daniel Kahneman on cognitive biases. When people make judgments about other people in social situations, they often depend on specific biases such as the availability heuristic, i. e., that we attach more significance to thoughts that come to mind easily. This is why we consider thoughts about other people as being more important than thoughts about inanimate objects. And so, as we look around us, we tend to focus our thoughts on the people we see and what they happen to be doing. Which is why people-watching can be so addictive. What adds to the sense that we are relatively invisible to others is that people tend to be as discreet as possible about their people-watching. Just because other people aren't sharing their observations with us, it's easy to pretend that they are not as observant as we are. Of course, people may share their people-watching observations with anyone they happen to be with but, for the most part, that only applies to something remarkable enough to comment on. For most of us, what we are seeing tends to be extremely private and not to be shared with others.

二、PTE写作SWT例题的答案：

Considered the groundbreaking research on cognitive biases, the invisibility cloak illusion occurs because we have no idea about what those other people are thinking unless they choose to share with us, and people tend to focus on the others that they see and what they happen to be doing, so it's easy to pretend that they are not as observant as we are because people tend to be as discreet as possible about people-watching.

三、PTE写作SWT例题的翻译：

据研究人员称，隐形斗篷错觉源于这样一种信念，即我们比周围的人更善于观察社会。

According to researchers, the invisibility cloak illusion stems from the belief that we are much more socially observant than the people around us. 

这意味着，当我们尽可能多地观察和好奇他人时，我们常常认为周围的人没有意识到这一点。 

This means that, while we watch and wonder about other people as much as possible, we often think that people around us are less aware. 

产生这种错觉的原因是，当我们完全意识到自己对他人的印象和猜测时，我们不知道这些人在想什么，除非他们选择与我们分享，这种情况很少发生，除非在特殊情况下。

 This illusion occurs because, while we are fully aware of our own impressions and speculations about other people, we have no idea about what those other people are thinking unless they choose to share with us, something that rarely happens except in exceptional circumstances.

为了更好地理解正在发生的事情，考虑阿莫斯·特沃斯基(Amos Tversky)和丹尼尔·卡尼曼(Daniel Kahneman)关于认知偏见的开创性研究很重要。

To better understand what is happening, it is important to consider the groundbreaking research by Amos Tversky and Daniel Kahneman on cognitive biases. 

当人们在社交场合对他人做出判断时，他们往往依赖于特定的偏见，比如可得性启发式，也就是说，我们更重视那些容易出现在脑海中的想法。 

When people make judgments about other people in social situations, they often depend on specific biases such as the availability heuristic, i. e., that we attach more significance to thoughts that come to mind easily. 

这就是为什么我们认为对他人的思考比对无生命物体的思考更重要。 

This is why we consider thoughts about other people as being more important than thoughts about inanimate objects. 

所以，当我们环顾四周时，我们倾向于把注意力集中在我们看到的人和他们正在做的事情上。 

And so, as we look around us, we tend to focus our thoughts on the people we see and what they happen to be doing. 

这就是为什么观察人们会如此上瘾。 

Which is why people-watching can be so addictive. 

更让人觉得我们相对来说是不被别人注意到的是，人们在观察别人的时候往往会尽可能地谨慎。 

What adds to the sense that we are relatively invisible to others is that people tend to be as discreet as possible about their people-watching. 

仅仅因为其他人不与我们分享他们的观察结果，我们就很容易假装他们不像我们那样善于观察。

 Just because other people aren't sharing their observations with us, it's easy to pretend that they are not as observant as we are.

当然，人们可能会与任何碰巧在一起的人分享他们观察别人的观察结果，但在大多数情况下，这只适用于那些值得评论的事情。

Of course, people may share their people-watching observations with anyone they happen to be with but, for the most part, that only applies to something remarkable enough to comment on. 

对于我们大多数人来说，我们所看到的往往是非常私人的，不会与他人分享。 

For most of us, what we are seeing tends to be extremely private and not to be shared with others.

四、PTE写作SWT例题的解析：

第一部分：生难词积累

invisibility，看不见的，来自vision看见，visibility看得见的东西；来自动词observe，观察，那么observe它是一个形容词；illusion，幻觉、错觉，我们常常会有一种错觉，那这个错觉就用illusion这个单词；Cognitive biases, 认知偏见，认知偏见这四个字好像我都认识，但放在一块儿就有点不太认识了，我们得把它拆开来。什么叫偏见？我自认为某一件事情会发生，但是可能并不是真的。认知，认识和知道。我举个例子，比方说我现在坐在这里，我认为天可能就要下雨，但是其实它就是一种认知的偏见，因为我并没有根据逻辑推理，根据风速、湿度等预测，而是我觉得它就会下雨了；discscriptet, 谨慎的，周到的；impression，印象；Speculation，猜测猜想。

第二部分：原文解析

1、这道题只有一段，其实我觉得在SWT当中，如果是分段的话，每段可能都可以抓起信息，但在一段当中，去抓核心词就比较难，所以一定要关注信号词，一些指示去寻找这篇文章重点的一些单词和句子。首先开头according to researchers, 根据研究人员所研究出来的结果，The invisibility cloak illusion stems from Sam of，是来自于一种belief，一种信念。什么样的信念呢？We are muchmore socially observant than people around.我们比周围人更善于观察这个社会，这其实就是一种应认知的偏见。我们常常认为people run us less aware, 我们在观察别人，但是他们不知道被我观察，但是殊不知其实很有可能他也在观察着你，这是一种偏见。

2、这种Illusion，是源自于当别人没有告诉我他心里想什么的时候，可能我完全不知道他心里在想什么的。两个人研究了什么东西，Consider groundbreaking research on the Co BIS, 所以前面的这个东西，都是为了引出来这个观点，认知的偏见。And so, 又是一个信号词，When we as we look around us，当我们看向四周的时候，We tend to focus our thoughts on the people who see and what they happen to be doing, 就是我们会带着自己的这种认知去想我们周围的人，他们在看什么东西，他们在做什么样的事情。这也就是说很多时候我们容易去观察别人，我看到他走过来，他朝我笑了笑，有时候可能同一种笑容，对于不同的人的解读是不一样的，而这种解读就叫做认知偏见。

3、了解两点可以了，第一点讲的就是我们总是会观察别人。第二点就是我们在观察别人的时候，是会带着自己的偏见的，这种偏见是根据自己的想法，我认为他在干什么，事实上他到底是不是这么干？我并不知道，因为他并没有告诉我。所以整个这篇文章，在你的答案里面，一定要有cognitive bias, 认知偏见这个单词。然后还要讲到要去观察别人，people watching, 然后大概讲了这几个东西其实就可以。SWT并没有一个标准的答案，你只要把关键词和关键句子带到抄好，然后保证它们是一句话，用连接词连接在一起就可以了。
