2016SAT語(yǔ)法詞匯中的形近詞：一張表教你快速分清新
    2016新SAT考試首考（美國(guó)時(shí)間3月5日）已經(jīng)在北美完美落下帷幕，相信正在積極備戰(zhàn)新SAT考試的同學(xué)都非常迫切地想了解更多新SAT的動(dòng)態(tài)，下邊是新東方在線致贏SAT*郭潔老師為大家?guī)?lái)的文章，教大家用一張表快速分清新SAT語(yǔ)法詞匯中的形近詞。咱們先來(lái)看看新SAT官方指南中對(duì)單詞這塊的要求：
    The Writing and Language Test may includequestions asking you to distinguish between and among frequently confused words-words that have similar or identical sounds and/or similar spellings but that have different meanings and are used in different ways.
