2016年3月, 新 SAT 语法以崭新的形式(Writing and Language Test， 即写作语言测试)出现在Evidence-Based Reading and Writing 这部分里。要求考生在以段落为语境的基础上，不仅从文章的发展结构方面修改，而且从以书面英语为标准审查段落的语言方面修改。跟旧 SAT 不一样的是，新的 SAT 加入了一个全新的语法点--标点符号。其中逗号的考点是最常见的，那么今天我们来讨论一下逗号的用法。
1. 逗号：用于连接一个句子中的并列成分
例句：The main products of the district are wool,cotton, timber and tung-oil.
The little girl likes to sing, to dance, and toact.?
必记公式：a and b(两个名词短语平行不用逗号)
a, b,and c
a, b,c, and d

4. 逗号，用于状语从句、介词短语或分词短语后

"标点很要紧。如果一个人标点不大会用,说明他语言不够清楚。"这是叶圣陶先生曾经强调过的。标点是辅助文字记录语言的一套符号,是文章里不可缺少的组成部分。
