之前新加坡教育网与大家分享了最后阶段复习O-Level生物的小贴士，本期继续为大家带来O-Level历史的tips!
As promised，干货来啦——关于O-Level历史的复习技巧
第一部分：SBQ (材料阅读)
1, ALWAYS address the overarching question at the start of the sources
2.同主题的整套SBQ对比分析：
很多SBQ题换汤不换药，用类似的sources，也需要类似的套路去分析。所以如果手头资料有限，可以把关于同一个topic的所有的sources放在一起，然后把题也放在一起，看这套题的问题如果放在另外一套source的背景下怎么回答。非常有用的sourceanalysis练习!
3.整理standard phrasing：
(a)对于inference questions (what can youlearn from the source/ what is the message/purpuse of the source):
通常答案有一个固定的架构：
I. Provenance(determines the slant and perspective)+ command verb (to convince, criticise,condemn, justify, credit, praise, discredit, mock...)
II. +Audience(congress, government, public),
III. + Message(eg, North Korea started the war/Stalin’s five year plan brough negative socialimpacts etc).
(b)要准确掌握message或者SBQ的考点 ingeneral:
强烈推荐整理总结SBQ章节的contentious point, (eg, Who was the winner in the CubanMissile crisis and who was responsible for starting the crisis; who started theKorean war; was the Nazi rule beneficial/harmful in various aspects in German;Was Stalin’s rule beneficial/harmful in various aspects in Soviet Union)
然后整理相关的课本evidence来support each side ofthe argument.
这个可以帮助你迅速认清source的出发点和argument并且用正确的课内知识back up
***对于essay section也超级有用!
Example 1: Korean War Perspectives
Analysis 1:Who started it? (Which player?)
首先要搞清楚Korean War的主要参与者(player)：North Korea (DPRK), South Korea (ROK), USA, USSR,China (PRC)
不同的player对这个问题有不同的perspective：DPRK blamed ROK; ROK, USA blamed DPRK; …
需要大概了解support 这些不同perspective不同claim的理由：
(a)ROK blamed DPRK: DPRK initiated/triggered the warby invading ROK in June 1950; (*motivation: national unification under Kim’scommunist banner and authority; personal ambition and power)
(b) PRC’s part in the start of the war: enabler—thoughnot direct causation(PRC did not initiate or provide the impetuses forthe war), it certainlyprovidedsupport for DPRK. (* extra knowledge: DPRK soldiers gainedexperience fighting alongside the Chinese against the Japanese as well asChiang Kai-Shek’s Kuomingtang forces during the Chinese Civil War.)
(c)USSR’s role: giving acquiescenceto Kim Il Sung’s request to invade the South, despite being reluctant initially(Kim asked thrice before Stalin permitted). Also providedmilitary supplies(expertise, weaponsetc) to DPRK in the lead-up to the offensive.
(d) ROK: no directcausality. Did notinitiate or trigger the war (being invaded by DPRK instead—a historical fact/contextual knowledge toprove DPRK’s claim that ROK started the war unreliable). ***(extra)However,had theintention to start the war (Syngman Rhee asked USA for permissionbut was refused) and Rhee’s intention/desire to unify the Korea peninsula underhis government had responsibility in determining themotivations for War (i.e. unification).
(e)USA: no intention and thusno direct responsibility for starting the war, because USA waswary of provoking Soviet response (possible nuclear confrontation)
第二部分：SEQ; Essay
(小作文)
You win the time, youwin the game——手速很重要!一定要争取写完!
1. 不要背书然后反刍
一定要分析清楚题目!看标准答案或找老师consult，把题目按(a) topicand (b)command word分类，找到题目的规律，才能提高答题效率，每一句话都回答问题。
2. 自己总结evaluation (那种argumentative essay最后辩证分析的段落，可以自己写然后找老师改, 或者用现有标准答案里写的好的，使你的文章脱颖而出)然后背下来，考试的时候才能下笔如有神。
3. (with caution)听老师的押题建议/看其他学校prelim的出题trend总结出出题高频chapters，多准备一下出题概率高chapters。
