Recommendation of postgraduate entrance examination outline ：
In 2020, the outline of the postgraduate entrance examination has been officially announced. I believe many candidates are very excited at this moment. In particular, this year is about two months earlier than previous years. We have always been worried about whether the new outline will undergo large-scale changes compared with last year's, and whether our previous review is effective. Now I can tell you definitely:
The English syllabus for postgraduate entrance examination in 2020, whether English 1 or English 2, has not changed in terms of question types and scores. Like last year, it has maintained its stability and regularity. It is good for everyone to arrange the review progress according to their own review plan. The following teacher will introduce the question type setting and specific changes listed in the syllabus that everyone cares about.

2、 Specific Changes in 2020 English Syllabus 1. The appearance of new sample questions and the addition of new real questions have not changed in recent years. This year, a new set of sample questions has suddenly been added. Please pay attention to it. I suggest you do this set of sample questions and analyze the characteristics of the questions. In addition, this year's outline also added a new set of real questions, which I believe also represents the direction of this year's proposition. 2. Changes in Appendix II (1) Appendix II Part II Adjustment The second part of Appendix II of the postgraduate entrance examination English syllabus lists the country names and other relevant information. This year's syllabus has adjusted the title: the original title is "Table of Some Countries (or Regions), Languages, Nationals and Nationalities", and the new syllabus is changed to "Names of Some Countries (or Regions) and Related Information. The specific contents of the fine adjustment are: 1) America is adjusted to the United States (of America)/America; 2) , Britain to the United Kingdom, (Great) Britain (2) New contents in Part II of Appendix II More than 30 countries and regions including Afghanistan were added. This part is almost the name of some countries and regions related to our "Belt and Road" policy. You should pay special attention to the changes in this part. The translation of place names may occur in the translation, and the topics related to cultural exchange and integration may also be examined in the writing, so please write down the contents of this part. (3) Adjustment of Part III of Appendix II The original title of Part III of Appendix II of this year's English syllabus is now changed to "names of continents and oceans"; America and American, Australia and Australian are deleted; The adjective Oceanic after Oceania is modified to Oceanian. (4) New Requirements for Vocabulary Sentence Understanding and Punctuation As we all know, in the past, the real topic of the postgraduate entrance examination focused more on the investigation of long and difficult sentences. What needs to be noted is that this year's English syllabus for postgraduate entrance examination reminds us that this year's exam will pay more attention to the examinees' understanding of short sentences, punctuation and grammatical knowledge such as subjunctive mood. In short, we will examine your foundation more carefully. Please pay attention to the understanding of details when preparing for the exam.
3、 Conclusion Through the above analysis, we believe that we have found that this year's English syllabus has not undergone qualitative changes, only some minor adjustments. I hope that in the next half year, we will take the new outline as the direction and rely on a solid foundation to strive for greater improvement. What we need to remind you is that the real question plays an irreplaceable role in the postgraduate entrance examination, because it is the crystallization of the wisdom of many propositioners. Therefore, we cannot simply treat the real question as a set of questions. On the contrary, we should carefully study it, analyze the ideas and trap setting methods of the propositioner, and strive to avoid detours when encountering similar questions next time. By the time of the entrance examination for graduate students, the real questions of the past 20 years should be carefully analyzed three or four times, and the new words and questions in the real questions must be thoroughly understood. Only by doing this, can we clearly know the intention of the proposer in the examination room, choose the correct answer he wants us to choose, and make English really become the chip for our success in the postgraduate entrance examination.
