Features: To better reflect the new assessment characteristics and requirements of the college entrance examination (Gaokao) under the new curriculum reform, to avoid blind sea-of-questions training before the exam, to improve preparation efficiency, and to provide candidates with novel and high-quality training questions, we have specially organized the writing of this series of books. This series strives to implement the new educational philosophy of "autonomy, cooperation, and exploration," focusing on the cultivation of abilities and qualities. Based on the new "Exam Syllabus," it centers on expanding thinking, emphasizes the integration of methods, and prioritizes the enhancement of abilities. It combines exam content, question-setting exploration, knowledge summarization, and ability improvement into scientifically efficient corresponding training.
The entire series is structured around key points, selects new materials, and includes new question types. The design of the training questions focuses on a gradient and pursues innovation. The series is written by subject, divided into nine volumes, with each volume decomposing knowledge according to the subject's characteristics into several training points. Questions are organized based on these points, forming sets, which are generally divided into three parts:
1. Basic Training: Focuses on the practice of fundamental knowledge and skills in the subject, emphasizing the understanding and mastery of knowledge, aiming to "build a knowledge platform."
2. Ability Training: Focuses on the practice of problem-solving methods and thinking skills, emphasizing the infusion of subject ideas, methods, and techniques.
3. Cluster Training: Based on the previous "point-specific" training, this part creates dense, stable clusters of questions that align with the structure of Gaokao questions. It aims to cultivate students' abilities in thinking transformation, transfer, and expansion, providing both substantial leaps in training and simulation effects.
Compared to similar Gaokao tutoring books, this series stands out for its originality, simplicity, and clarity. The questions are graded in difficulty, balancing fundamentals and comprehensiveness. Each training is systematic and well-organized, with separate sets forming a cohesive framework. As a result, it is expected to achieve a step-by-step, comprehensive improvement in learning outcomes.
According to the characteristics of the subject and the difficulty and volume of the questions, each set of questions is designed for 45 minutes, 60 minutes, 90 minutes, 100 minutes, or 120 minutes, and is bound in loose-leaf format for easy in-class testing or after-class practice. Each training set includes a special section titled "[Training Tips]" that concisely highlights key points, difficulties, key points, hot topics, introduces methods, and stimulates thinking.
Since its release, this series has garnered strong attention from readers and praise from educators and students alike, thanks to its distinctive and powerful presence, accurate guidance, solid and practical content, and scientific and innovative format. To better adapt to the times, implement the spirit of curriculum reform, and reflect Gaokao trends, we have revised the original version substantially based on the principles of "adjustment, enrichment, and enhancement." This has effectively elevated the quality of the book, making it an excellent 2005 Gaokao preparation companion.
