It is necessary to use case for punctuation in small questions. But if it is the last line, you can only write punctuation marks in the same box in the last line, not in the first line.

1. Generally, there are the following punctuation marks that occupy case alone: comma, semicolon, colon, question mark, exclamation point, period, pause, etc.

Second, punctuation marks that need to occupy double spaces generally have the following types: dashes, ellipsis, quotation marks, book titles, brackets, etc.

Third, in normal writing, punctuation marks should occupy the case, which is the most basic format of writing. The same is true of the civil service examination.

Points for attention in punctuation in applied writing;

1. As for the number of words required in the essay test, the examiner will ignore the proportion of punctuation and spaces in the answer sheet and will not harshly pick out punctuation and spaces and calculate them separately. Therefore, no matter how many spaces and punctuation marks there are in the whole article, as long as the last word is within a limited line, even if it meets the word count requirements, it will not be deducted.

At the same time, if there are punctuation marks, your content and logic will be clearer, and it will be easier for examiners to find scoring points when correcting test papers.

2. In the process of marking papers, candidates can't see the grid, so candidates should pay more attention to whether the punctuation in the grid is consistent, so as to better ensure the neatness and consistency of the test papers.
