SWT一直都是PTE考试的重中之重，由于PTE的交叉打分机制，SWT一定程度上也决定着阅读分数的高低。但因为机经命中率比较高，考生往往忽略了练习的重要性，背一遍机经就去考试了。考试的时候如果纯靠回忆，很容易在高度紧张的时候忘记，而且一旦题目稍有变化将会不知所措，大大影响作文成绩。所以在备考阶段，对每篇SWT真题进行透彻的学习和分析，才是正确的复习方法。
以下是高频考题 Benefits of honey 的分析，并附上高分参考答案。

According to Dr.Ron Fessenden, M D, M.P.H. the average Americanconsumes more than 150 pounds of refined sugar, plus an additional 62pounds of high fructose com syrup every year. Incomparison, we consume only around1.3 pounds of honey peryear on average in the U.S. According to new research, ifyou can switch outyour intake of refined sugar and use pure raw honey instead, the health benefits can beenormous.
What is raw honey?It’s a pure, unfiltered and unpasteurized sweetener made by bees from thenectar of flowers. Most of the honey consumed today is processed honey that'sbeen heated and filtered since it was gathered from the hive. Unlike processedhoney, raw honey does not get robbed of its incredible nutritional value and health powers. Itcan help with everything from low energy to sleepproblems to seasonal allergies. Switchingto raw honey may even help weight-loss effortswhen compared to diets containing sugar or high fructose corn syrup. I'mexcited to tell you more about one of my all-time favorite natural sweetenerstoday.
这篇文章的的段落感非常清晰，两个段落的讨论的主要内容很容易划分：第一段描述了美国人目前使用甜味剂的现状，由现状提出建议——天然蜂蜜更健康；第二段则具体解介绍什么是天然蜂蜜，以及它有什健康么功效。在写summary时，我们只需要按照内容的不同区块，把中心意思总结出来即可。
According to Dr.Ron Fessenden, M D, M.P.H. the average Americanconsumes more than 150 pounds of refined sugar, plus an additional 62pounds of high fructose com syrup every year.

解析：
这一段的前两句的内容主要描述现在美国人使用甜味剂的现状：精细糖是150镑，枫糖是62镑，而蜂蜜仅仅1.3镑。文章中用了很多数字来表示使用情况，然而在写summary的时候我们不需要把具体数据都涵盖，我们只需要总结出它想表达的观点即可：精细糖和枫糖的用量远远大于蜂蜜的用量。最后一句是作者由现状引出的观点：如果把对精细糖的摄取转换成对蜂蜜的摄取，健康好处很多。文章主干：... theaverage American consumes more than 150 pounds of refined sugar... highfructose com syrup every year... if you can switch out your intake of refinedsugar and use pure raw honey instead, the health benefits can be enormous. 把观点从主干中总结出来，并加入答案格式：While the average American consumes much morerefined sugar and high fructose com syrup than honey, the health benefits areenormous if you switch out your intake of refined sugar and use pure raw honeyinstead。
第二部分：
What is raw honey?It’s a pure, unfiltered and unpasteurized sweetener made by bees from thenectar of flowers. Most of the honey consumed today is processed honey that'sbeen heated and filtered since it was gathered from the hive. Unlike processedhoney, raw honey does not get robbed of its incredible nutritional value and health powers. Itcan help with everything from low energy to sleepproblems to seasonal allergies. Switchingto raw honey may even help weight-loss effortswhen compared to diets containing sugar or high fructose corn syrup.

解析：
第二段开头就用问句引出“天然蜂蜜”是什么的解释，文中用“天然”和“加工”的蜂蜜的对比来解释了什么“天然蜂蜜”的含义。在写summary时，我们只需要把“是什么”总结出来就好，不需要再对二者的对比多加赘述。随后，作者罗列了一些天然蜂蜜的好处，在写summary时，我们只需要把这些好处的关键词从句子里挑出来即可。文章主干：... raw honey does notget robbed of its incredible nutritional value and health powers... sleepproblem... seasonal allergies... weight-loss efforts。用because表示因果逻辑与前一部分的summary连起来，用“has”代替表达“not get robbed of”，得到：because raw honey has incredible nutritionalvalue and health powers, indicating its help with sleep problems, seasonalallergies and weight-loss efforts.
最后附上参考答案：
While the average American consumes much more refined sugar and high fructose comsyrup than honey, the health benefits are enormous if you switch out yourintake of refined sugar and use pure raw honey instead, because raw honey hasincredible nutritional value and health powers, indicating its help with sleepproblems, seasonal allergies and weight-loss efforts.
