[Epoch Times, July 28, 2021](The Epoch Times reporter Lin Zixin reported from Taipei, Taiwan) The final university test will be held from July 28 to 30, and the first day will be 3 subjects including physics, chemistry, and biology. According to the National Teachers’ Association, this year’s physics test questions have been taken from life to life, and the syllabus has many experimental topics, and the overall difficulty is relatively difficult; there are many chemistry current affairs questions, and the difficulty is comparable to last year; and the biology test questions are innovative and combine current events, but the overall difficulty of the test questions has increased . Regarding the physics exam, the physics teacher group in Taipei’s high school stated that the physics calculation questions are as high as 60%, and some of the exam questions are not approachable and require repeated reading, which is the most difficult in the past five years.
According to the statistics of the University Examination Center, there are 40,919 applicants for the test this year. The number of candidates refers to the lowest level since the 91 academic year. In terms of the number of applicants, there are 19,590 candidates for physics and 20,000 for chemistry. There were 565 candidates for the examination and 14,547 candidates for the biology department.
Regarding the physics exam, the whole church stated that the test questions are taken into life, including baseball flying, earthquake warning, the principle of electromagnetic induction of the leisure card, nuclear power plant nuclear safety accident, the principle of hot air balloon flight at the Taiwan International Hot Air Balloon Carnival, etc., with news and Life topics are included in the topic, emphasizing basic concepts of physics. The whole church said that this experiment has more subjects than in previous years, including resonance air column, current balance, water wave tank, metal specific heat measurement, photoelectric effect and other experiments. Next year, the test is divided into subjects. It is recommended that candidates pay attention to the subject of the syllabus experiment.
From the analysis of the whole topic, the whole church stated that the materials for physics propositions are diverse, with the syllabus learning content as the main proposition axis, and the chapter allocation is in line with the syllabus hours. To get a high score, candidates still need to be familiar with the textbook, be able to think and digest, and the difficulty of the entire question is estimated to be difficult for the candidates.
The senior high school physics teacher group in Taipei City also analyzed that the 110th year was the last time to refer to the exam questions. The teachers who prepared the questions very carefully designed a lot of questions that require in-depth thinking and hands-on calculations, which are extremely challenging for students. Candidates must be very familiar with the content and concepts of high school physics textbooks in order to be able to score. The characteristics of this test question are sufficient physical depth, a large amount of calculation, and a slightly higher difficulty in sorting, which is beneficial to students with strong calculation skills.
As for the chemistry exam, the whole church pointed out that there are many current affairs questions, and there are also many organic chemistry-related questions. It continues the recent years of academic and finger-based examinations, but it is not difficult to solve the questions as long as they have the ability to integrate. The overall test questions are both traditional and newly created, without complicated calculations, and the difficulty is about the same as last year. The high school chemistry teacher group in Taipei pointed out that the proportion of scientific inquiry questions (25%) is similar to last year, which helps students make inferences and apply concepts. There are few questions related to chemistry experiments, and it is expected that the proportion of experimental questions will be increased in the future to encourage normal high school chemistry experiment classes, and to guide students to become familiar with experimental skills and to think logically.
In the biological examination section, the whole church stated that the high proportion of current affairs questions and the innovative examination questions, the large amount of text and the high proportion of charts, made the entire examination question more difficult. The test questions are also discriminative, and students need to have the literacy skills such as text reading and chart interpretation to get a high score. The whole church also mentioned that some of the options in the exam questions are not the content of the syllabus, such as: Question 15 Option C amniocentesis, Option D chorionic sampling; Option D Key species, Option E, year-to-year fluctuations in Question 35, etc. Tsunami’s doubts.
