Expert Commentary:
2017 National Volume I continued to adopt the new material essay question type with a clear writing task. The composition material originated from a set of continuous reports by CCTV in May, and the necessary adjustments and refinements were made when proposing the questions in order to make the candidates' thinking more focused and in-depth.
The question is to make great efforts in the selection of materials, and in the formulation of writing requirements, the material, content and context of the question are repeatedly considered, reflecting the theme of the times intuitively and strategically, and conveying values positively and skillfully. The intention is far-reaching but avoids being vague, adheres to the student-oriented, grounded, lively, and has a strong sense of the times. As a clear instruction, "present the China you know", candidates are encouraged to start from what they know, what they have learned and what they feel, and in grasping the grand topic, to narrate sensibly, to think rationally, to speak freely, and to "tell a good story about China"; and candidates are guided to use the Chinese dream to promote the dream of youth, to care about the reality of the country and the reform and development of the country, and to be concerned about the development of the country. The company is also concerned about the reality of the country and the reform and development of the country, to show their ideals and beliefs, state of mind and comprehensive quality.
"Presenting the China you know" requires a broad perspective, and the twelve "key words of China" are the candidates' grip, while "choosing two or three key words from them" fully respects the candidates' personal wishes. This treatment is conducive to triggering the candidates' personal wishes. This treatment is conducive to triggering the candidates' desire to write and their true feelings, as well as the refinement, actualization and concretization of the role of ideological education and value leadership. These key words with the combination of a large degree of freedom. Such as by the "Great Wall" "Peking Opera" to talk about the ancient civilization of traditional China, by the "high-speed rail" "mobile payment "to talk about modern and open high-tech China, by the "Chinese food" "square dance" to talk about fun China or passionate China, by the "*** enjoy bike " and "mobile payment" to talk about the vibrant fashion China or the Internet China where new things are emerging. In addition, you can also juxtapose the traditional national treasure "Peking Opera" with the popular "Square Dance", and juxtapose the long-cultured "Chinese cuisine" with the grim reality of "food safety". Food safety" the grim reality of the hook, but also the ancient "Great Wall" and the current "Belt and Road" in contrast to each other, each other invention ...... All of these are possible to write a good article. Each keyword is a microcosm of China and a characterization of China, and there is a rich tension and overlapping discursive space between them, but also **** with the composition of a diverse and three-dimensional China.
The proposition does not limit the imagination of the candidates while leading the values, but on the contrary encourages creativity in the combination of keywords, leaving a lot of space for the play of critical thinking. Such as the "beautiful countryside" to write in the old urbanization of the ills and "retain nostalgia" necessary, from the "pandas" extended to the animal protection and even ecological protection of the urgency of the borrowed "Air pollution" "food safety" discusses the harm of excessive pursuit of GDP and the call for innovation, coordination, green, openness, **** enjoy the "five development concepts". Candidates can face up to the problems in the development, face up to the contradictions in the progress, see the potential crisis, with a high degree of awareness of the danger of saving for a rainy day, for the cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics to make suggestions, add bricks and mortar.
This question is extremely broad space of intention, not only taking into account the candidates of different levels and different regions, but also taking into account the writing strengths of different candidates. In the process of the intention of the line of writing, so that the key words to form an organic correlation is not difficult; but to make a new, creative and even unexpected and reasonable combination of key words, and can thus write a good article is not so easy.
The writing requirement, "Write an article to help foreign youth understand China" is also the core of the proposition. It is both a "task-driven" instruction and a "specific discursive" context. Here, "foreign young people" as the object of writing presupposition belongs to generalization. Candidates can imagine themselves speaking eloquently to the whole group, or they can presuppose a certain foreign youth or a certain type of foreign youth to talk to. Good writing should be targeted to a pre-determined audience, seeking *** knowledge and even paying attention to discourse strategies. "Read and understand" can be understood as from ignorance to preliminary understanding, but also from incomplete to more comprehensive understanding, and how to understand and implement the "help" is related to the type of predetermined readers, but also affects the depth of the idea, the difficulty of writing.
In addition, the proposition requires a clear style, but does not limit the style of writing, as long as you can "present your understanding of China", and can "help foreign young people to read and understand China", expository, narrative, and even illustration, lyrical type of style are available! You are free to choose as long as your writing reflects the characteristics of the chosen genre.
Through the above efforts, this question not only provides candidates with a huge writing space, but also effectively prevents the set composition, which greatly improves the differentiation and effectiveness of the test.
