前几篇文章讲的都是根据一篇文章回答问题，今天我们来看一下如何根据两篇文章回答问题。

SAT的阅读有时会给出两篇文章，也就是一组对比文章，问题是有关这两篇文章的。在两篇文章之前，会给出相关信息。
大家要先阅读信息，再读文章。这些信息会包括文章背景、作者、目的等信息。两篇文章会有所不同，写作意图也不同。
读完这些信息后，再去浏览问题，不要先读文章，因为文章可能会很长。问题的顺序与文章的顺序基本相同，意味着第一篇文章的问题后才是第二篇文章的问题。
但是，在第二篇文章的问题后，会出现一些对比、比较两篇文章的分析和评价性问题。
总的来说，第一篇文章会有一个中心支持观点，而第二篇文章的观点会与之不同。但有时也会遇到两篇主题相似或完全不同的文章。
看到比较性问题，首先要做的就是总结两篇文章大意。例如，你可能会总结出：
Passage 1: Believes that religion is the source of major conflicts in the world
Passage 2: Discusses the benefits of sprituality and religious life
下面，我们就来看一下问题：
1."How would the author of passage 2 likely respond to the author of passage 1 in his claim that "religion was the source of wars in the 17th century?"
这一类型的问题基于对文章的推断。 在文章中找不到直接的答案。大家应根据第二篇文章坐着的态度选出正确答案。例如，第二篇文章作者的态度是 "pro-religion"，可能就会假设作者反对第一篇文章的观点。
2."Which of the following is a view expressed by both passages?"
这是SAT考试中比较典型的问题。要求考生比较这两篇文章，并找出共同点。因此大家就要找出两篇文章中作者都同意的观点。这不是推理性问题，因此不要根据自己的理解推断作者的想法，要根据文章得出答案。
3."Which of the following is a difference between passage one and two?"
这是典型的对比问题，找出两篇文章主要的不同点。这也是从文章中得出答案。
