Features: To correctly guide teachers and students in their 2005 college entrance examination (Gaokao) general review, we have organized renowned senior and advanced-level teachers from across the country, as well as university professors, to compile this book. The compilers have long been engaged in question-setting and marking work and have worked in Gaokao guidance for many years, possessing rich teaching and examination experience. They have a keen ability to respond to Gaokao information and a unique expression style. Many of them are leading figures in their respective subjects in their provinces or cities. This book is strictly compiled according to the newly issued syllabi by the National Education Examination Center of China, staying true to the textbooks yet going beyond them, and integrating the latest trends of the 2005 Gaokao. It covers a wide range of content, making it highly beneficial for students preparing for the exam. This book is the supplementary review material for the 2005 Gaokao candidates using the new textbooks and syllabi.
For a long time, we have felt that during the general review stage, candidates urgently need a reference book that can:
- Solidify foundational knowledge while adapting to constant changes;
- Elevate their understanding, mastering problem-solving techniques and improving examination skills;
- Stay synchronized with the new trends, changes, and theories of the Gaokao.
To address this, under the specific guidance of the National Education Examination Center, we have organized renowned senior teachers from key high schools across the country to compile this book. The book has the following features:
1. Based on the new spirit of the newly issued syllabus, it integrates the latest characteristics of Gaokao question-setting in 2005, compiled on the foundation of summarizing and absorbing the experience of successful Gaokao review guidance.
2. It firmly grasps the key abilities and knowledge points of each subject in the Gaokao, highlighting key areas and resolving difficulties. It helps candidates understand and master a scientific and rational knowledge network, making it easy to store and retrieve information. Additionally, it proposes scientific and effective review suggestions, offering great reference value.
3. By deeply analyzing the characteristics of Gaokao question-setting in recent years (1997-2004), it summarizes the trends and patterns of question-setting, combining them with a large number of typical and innovative examples to broaden problem-solving perspectives, summarize techniques and methods, and enable candidates to truly achieve a comprehensive understanding and the ability to apply knowledge flexibly.
4. It provides specific guidance for the typical errors candidates often make in the Gaokao, helping them identify and fill gaps while consolidating existing knowledge, avoiding detours and backtracking during the general review.
5. The book does not rely on "ocean-like drills" (excessive practice), nor does it fill its content with complex exercises. Instead, it is a compilation of the wisdom and insights of the compiler team, sourced from four areas:
- Long-term teaching practice of the compilers;
- Outstanding works from major national newspapers and magazines;
- First-class achievements from local teaching research conferences and experience-sharing sessions;
- The crystallization of in-depth research by experts on Gaokao question-setting.
This book draws from the strengths of others, showcases ingenuity, targets key areas, and emphasizes practicality. The unit structure of the English subject is designed into the following sections:
