自1971年来所有的 AP Lit 小说数据

我们整理了这个 Google 表單，里面标注自1971年来所有在 AP Literature 中出现的小说：

学生可以自行在表单中排序看你想要的资讯，包含：

• 排序 Title A-Z，看有哪些书出现在历年考题中
• 排序 Total Z-A，看历年考题中最常出现的书有哪些
• 排序 Past 10 或 Past 5 Z-A，看过去 5-10 年的考题中最常出现的书有哪些
• 排序任何一个年份 Z-A，看该年的考题中出现了哪些书

---

有了这些数据，然后呢？这些清单可以怎样帮我？

1. 透过清单知道过去几年考了哪些书，多熟悉那几本书

从这个历年书籍总整理可以看出一个趋势，就是相同的书常常会出现下一年的 AP 考试又出现，所以在 2015-2019 年的书，你尤其要熟悉。

2. 透过清单知道有哪些书最常出现，多熟悉那几本书

从这个历年书籍总整理也可以看出有几本书跟几位作者常常会出现在 AP 考试中。 Invisible Man, Wuthering Heights, 跟 Great Expectations，以及 William ShakeSpeare, Charles Dickens, Henrik Ibsen, Henry James, 和 Margaret Atwood 的小说，你一定要熟悉。

3. 如果这些高频清单中出现了你不会的书，快利用考试前的有限时间赶快读它们。

AP 文学涵盖的书籍非常广，如果这些清单中出现了不少你不熟悉的书也是正常的。在考试前，希望你有时间能读这些书并作笔记，如果没空读整本书也可以读 Spark Notes里面的大意跟解析，让你不至于对这些书完全不了解。

4. 考前做官方或第三方的 AP 文学模考，了解这些小说会用什么形式出现在考试中。

如果你是Ivy-Way 的AP Literature 学生，你可以从老师手中拿到历年考题，如果你不是，你也可以跟你学校的AP Literature 老师询问有没有历年考题可以让你练习，从中你就可以知道考试的出题方式，以及你是否有办法回答关于这些小说的题目。

5. 如果你还是觉得考试很难，要尽早寻求帮助！

希望你不是在考试前一两个礼拜你才发现这个考试的难度超过你能负荷的！透过平时的练习，如果你发现AP Literature 有点困难了，你要尽早寻求帮助，这个帮助可以来自你学校的AP Literature 老师额外的课后辅导，可以透过你跟同学组study group 一起练习，如果你要有系统地准备考试，你也可以透过Ivy-Way 的AP Literature 老师的线上辅导，让你有足够时间准备，战胜这个考试。如果你需要我们带领你一起准备，你只要在我们的网站上填一份报名表就可以了！
