MAP还考写作？揭开 MAP 写作的真面目！

　　MAP 还考写作？揭开 MAP 写作的真面目！提到 MAP 考试，大家首先想到的科目是 Math（数学）Reading（英语阅读）Language usage（英语语言运用）和 Science（科学），甚至在很多关于 MAP 的考试介绍文字中都没有见到“写作”的影子。似乎写作在 MAP 中的江湖地位不太重要。

　　实际上，很多国内外的国际学校，例如鼎石，在考试当天会给考生安排一场写作测试，检验考试的写作功底，作为录取的参考。MAP 的写作考试的话题通常也是议论文型的让考生谈自己考点的题目，但这和托福考试的议论文题目有明显的区别。

　　托福考试一般是让考生对某个客观的话题进行论述，比如你同不同意玩电脑游戏浪费时间这个观点？MAP 的写作一般是让考生谈自己的主观选择。比如，我们来看几道 MAP考试的真题。

　　If you could have one superpower, what would it be and why? If your mother wants to take you on a trip, but you want to stay at home and play with your friends, what should you choose?

　　如果你想拥有一种超能力，你希望是什么能力，为什么？如果妈妈想带你出去旅游，但你想留在家里和朋友玩儿，你打算怎么做？

　　从题目中不难看出，考试方要让考生做出自己主观的选择，所以这里除了考查英语语言的写作能力以外，还要从考生的选择中评判考生的某种能力或者个性特点，比如想象力，同理心等。

　　所以考生在进行作文的内容构思时，要慎重考虑。从语言的角度，根据之前学生交的作文，总结一些常见的语法错误。各位同学争取在写作中先规避常见语法错误的发生。
