考研政治大题答题技巧

普遍适用规则:

在掌握知识量基本相同的情况下,答题技巧的不同可能使总分相差10到20分。政治的考研试卷中大题的分值占百分之六十,而实际上大题也是技巧性最强的题型。下面向大家介绍大题答题四步曲:第一步:仔细审题。找出本题目是关于哪个学科的哪个章节,在草稿纸上写下此章节内所有可能与本题有联系的基本概念及原理。大多数题目是跨章节,甚至跨学科的,要注意思维的发散性。

第二步:解释每一个概念并写出原理的基本内容。如果自己写出的相关概念太多,则视试卷留出的空白捡重要的写,解释概念和原理一般不要超过本题答题空间的二分之一。什么?

太多了?不要怕,答多不扣分。但要注意答题时每个概念和原理要作为一段,字迹要工整清晰。好了,本题目分数的一半你已经拿到了,下面进行第三步。

第三步:联系实际。如果本题是论述题,则根据本题联系实际中的一些现象,给出评价;如果本题是材料题,则材料就是实际,指出材料中的一些问题,也就是将材料用你学过的关于政治的术语再复述一遍。这部分一定要有,而且要作为一个段落,如果字迹工整的话,即使这一段答得驴头不对马嘴,至少也有两分。第四步:总结。这一部分是绝对送分的,但也要有技巧。要将其作为一个段落,如果此题是论述题,则将整个题目再复述一遍,不要忘了在前面加上一个所以;如果此题是材料题,则提倡材料中好的做法,批评材料中坏的做法。

如果答大题时你能熟练地按上面的四步做,大题方面你至少可以比相同水平的其他人多得n分,不信?试用历史唯物主义的有关原理说明"以德治国"与"以法治国"的关系及其重要意义(2002年政治重中之重)。首先仔细读题目,题目中已经告诉我们是用马哲中的历史唯物主义的几章的原理,而以法治国和以德治国是邓论中的内容,因此要考虑将两个学科结合起来答题。表面上看题目中有两个基本概念以法治国和以德治国,联系到马哲,以德治国便是是道德问题,是上层建筑;以法治国便是法制问题。如此以来,此题需要答的基本概念和原理有:道德,法制,以德治国,以法治国,上层建筑,道德与法制的关系,以法治国和以德治国的关系。然后联系实际,这一步没关系,只要稍微写两句而且字迹工整便不失大格。最后总结,好像这里把题目重抄一遍不顺口,其实只要稍微一改便行:要把以法治国和以德治国相结合。

下面我们看一下标准答案:

1)历史唯物主义认为道德与法制既有联系又有区别,二者的区别表现在:道德的概念;法制的概念;道德与法制的关系。

2)历史唯物主义又认为,社会的经济基础决定上层建筑的产生、性质和变化;上层建筑反作用于经济基础。社会主义的法律和道德是社会主义上层建筑的重要组成部分,它对经济基础的发展有重大意义。

3)以法治国和以德治国又是相辅相成,不可分割的。以法治国的概念;以德治国的概念;以法治国和以德治国的关系。

4)把以德治国和以法治国紧密的结合起来,是建设有中国特色的社会主义的要求,也是社会主义市场经济的要求。

怎么样,是不是感到大题的简单了?上面是我总结的几条关于政治考研的技巧,如果你能真正掌握它,不好意思,你的政治考研分数再也没有希望低于70分了。

论述题:

第一步:仔细审题。

建议考生找出本题目是关于哪个科学的哪个章节,在草稿纸上写下此章节内所有可能与本题有联系的基本概念及原理。大多数题目是跨章节,甚至跨学科的,要注意思维的发散性。第二步:解释每一个概念并写出原理的基本内容。

如果自己写出的相关概念太多,建议视试卷留出的空白捡重要的写,解释概念和原理一般不要超过本题答题空间的二分之一。什么?太多了?不要怕,答多了不扣分。但考生要注意答题时每个概念和原理要作为一段,字迹要工整清晰。好了,本题目分数的一半你已经拿到了,下面进行第三步。

第三步:联系实际。

如果本题是论述题,建议考生根据本题联系实际中的一些现象,给出评价,如果本题是材料题,则材料就是实际,指出材料中的一些问题,也就是将材料用你学过的关于政治的术语再复述一遍。这部分一定有要有,而且要作为一个段落,字迹工整。

AtfirstNewtonpatientlyansweredobjectionswithfurtherexplanations,butwhentheseproducedonlymorenegativeresponses,hefinallybecameirritatedandvowedhewouldneverpublishagain,eventhreateningtogiveupscientificinvestigationaltogether.Severalyearslater,andonlythroughthetirelesseffortsoftheastronomerEdmundHalley,Newtonwaspersuadedtoputtogethertheresultsofhisworkonthelawsofmotion,whichbecamethegreatPrincipia.
