SAT I 的 Writing 部分要求写 1 篇文章，时间为 25 分钟，依据试题要求，写出一篇完整的议论文。 要求学生用铅笔在纸上完成(自动铅笔、HB、2B 铅笔均可)，不需要另加标题。SAT I 的 Writing 的字数没有硬性规定，但作文的篇幅约有一张半 A4 纸的大小。全部写满一般要用400 至 500 个英语单词。
因此，如何在25分钟内写出一篇篇幅较长而又令人印象深刻的内容呢?

2009年10月SAT写作真题：
Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below. (2009.10)
Good news is, for the most part, no news. It is not sufficiently compelling or important to make leading stories and front pages in the media, certainly not as often as bad news. Bad news sells, or so it seems from the books, newspapers, and television reports that fill our lives. But in this endless focus on the bad, the media present a distorted view of the world.
Adapted from Richard B.McKenzie, The Paradox of Progress: Can American Regain Their Confidence in a Prosperous Future?
Assignment: Do books, newspapers, and other media focus too much on bad news? Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observations.

1. 题目翻译：
在大多数情况下，最好的新闻就是没有新闻。在媒体上成为头条或者头版新闻不总是那样有吸引力或者重要，特别是坏消息经常是这样的。坏消息才有卖点，或者从我们生活中的书籍、报纸、电视上看来是这样。但是在不停关注在坏事上时，媒体给我们展现了一个扭曲的时间观。
题目：书籍、报纸和其他媒体太过注重坏消息了吗?
2. 审题关键词：media, bad news
3. 论证分析-各段核心提纲：
正：Bad news always makes the front page.
反：Actually, it depends on which media it is. For example, tabloids focus more on entertainment news.
补：The obligation of media is informing people of what is happening around the world.
