In recent years, the propositional thinking of college entrance examination questions has changed from "knowledge view" to "ability view" and "realistic problem view" In other words, exams pay more and more attention to students' ability to solve practical problems by comprehensively applying basic knowledge. At the same time, many contents of political science textbooks are related to current politics and need to keep pace with the times. Current affairs politics often reflects the line, principles and policies of the party and the country. Therefore, it is natural and reasonable to combine the political examination questions of the college entrance examination with current affairs politics. Therefore, our usual political class teaching and our review of the college entrance examination political class must be closely related to current affairs and politics. Whether it is the teacher's teaching or the students' own learning, it is necessary to combine the basic knowledge in political textbooks with current affairs and politics for understanding, research and training. It is not only the focus of current affairs and politics, but also the focus of teaching materials, and it is often the focus of political propositions in the college entrance examination. For example, in the college entrance examination in Guangdong in 2008, question 40: Combined with the snowstorm, explain the relationship between respecting objective laws and giving full play to subjective initiative, and question 4 1: What is the impact of RMB appreciation on traditional processing trade enterprises in the Pearl River Delta? Nowadays, college entrance examination questions, whether political single-subject questions or comprehensive questions, involve a considerable part of major current affairs. Therefore, in the usual learning process, we must learn to use the principles we have learned to analyze and think about hot issues and constantly improve our ability. Combining what you have learned with hot issues of current politics is not only a hot review, but also a regular work. For example, China's hosting of the Olympic Games has fulfilled a century-old dream, and China athletes have made great efforts and made breakthroughs, which is a hot issue that can be examined from many aspects. In terms of political life, this Olympic Games is the one with the largest number of countries and regions in history. It can not only analyze the viewpoint that "peace and development are the two major themes of development in the present era", but also penetrate the theoretical knowledge that "the essence of current international competition is the competition of comprehensive national strength". In terms of economic life, hosting the Olympic Games can promote the development of the tertiary industry and the adjustment of industrial structure. In life and philosophy, we can analyze the principles of "things are constantly advancing", "the unity of progress and stumbling of development" and "the exertion of subjective initiative". In terms of cultural life, hosting the Olympic Games has promoted cultural exchanges between China and foreign countries. 2. Pay attention to major domestic current affairs and politics. Judging from the college entrance examination papers in recent years, more and more attention has been paid to the investigation of domestic hot issues, while less attention has been paid to international hot issues. But this does not mean that we should not pay attention to international hotspots. For example, the 26th question of politics in the 2008 college entrance examination is about Scientific Outlook on Development and a harmonious society. The 40th political question of the 2008 college entrance examination in Guangdong Province examines the problems related to the huge disaster brought by the ice and snow in the peak period of Spring Festival travel rush in 2008 to the south of China. Question 39 of the 2008 college entrance examination in Sichuan Province: Use the relevant knowledge of the international community to explain why the concept of sustainable development can be recognized by different countries. Therefore, in recent years, especially this year, we must pay serious attention to many major current events. For example, China successfully launched Shenzhou VII, China won a great victory in earthquake relief, the Third Plenary Session of the 17th Central Committee of China, and in-depth study on Scientific Outlook on Development, the global financial crisis, the G20 Summit and the three links across the Taiwan Straits. 3. Pay attention to the interrelation between current events. Every hot spot of current affairs is not isolated, and we can't truly understand and grasp it. Some hot issues reflect the same regularity. We can classify and integrate these current affairs hot spots, so as to guide many hot spots with a typical hot spot, such as the line, principles and policies of the party and the country. All these reflect the trend of social development and the fundamental interests of the people, and can command many current political hotspots. To learn them, we should not only know their content itself, but also know their background, reasons, significance and influence. 4. Don't ignore the persistent hot spots that have been concerned for many years. For example, Question 38 of Politics in Tianjin College Entrance Examination in 2008: Combined with the second document, this paper analyzes why "the development and progress of China cannot be separated from the world, and the prosperity and stability of the world cannot be separated from China". 2008 Hainan province college entrance examination political questions 26; Why did the central budget in 2008 fully reflect the core of Scientific Outlook on Development? Tianjin college entrance examination comprehensive article in 2008 Question 39: Analyze China's food supply and demand situation and how to ensure China's food security by using contradiction analysis method. Wait, these issues are persistent hot spots that have been concerned for many years. Therefore, we should not only pay attention to the current political hot spots closely combined with the teaching materials this year, but also pay attention to those persistent hot spots that have a long-term effect on our living environment and the national economy and people's livelihood. For example, Scientific Outlook on Development, social harmony, "agriculture, countryside and farmers", rejuvenating the country through science and education and sustainable development strategy, economic restructuring, economic globalization, green GDP, humanistic spirit, scientific spirit, civic awareness, national opening-up policy, national unity, national sovereignty, food safety, production safety, etc., have been hot spots for many years, and are the "frequent test sites" in the college entrance examination, but the angle of entering the questions is changing every year. Pay more attention to these hot spots and pay attention to the current affairs background of these persistent hot spots when reviewing. 5. Hot issues of current politics can be objective issues of "asking more questions with one material" or subjective issues of examining the same issue from multiple angles and levels. For example, the question 16- 17 in the 2008 college entrance examination in Hainan Province is an objective question of "multiple questions with one material". For example, the 40th question of the 2008 Guangdong College Entrance Examination is a subjective question that examines the same question from multiple angles and levels. 6. Hot issues of current politics can be directly cut in or indirectly cut in. Directly cut in, that is, directly put forward the key points and focus issues that people pay attention to, directly take these issues as the carrier and object of examination, and directly examine the understanding and mastery of candidates. For example, the question 1-7 in the 2008 Guangdong college entrance examination political questions is directly cut. It is not easy to detect knowledge points by cutting into the test center indirectly, which generally reflects the intention of the proposer comprehensively and indirectly. Because political science pays more attention to the cultivation of students' basic theoretical literacy, and pays more attention to the cultivation of students' ability to integrate theory with practice and solve practical problems. Therefore, in addition to directly raising major current issues, proponents often indirectly choose deeper topics to examine students' ability to analyze practical problems with what they have learned. Second, the preparation strategy of current political hotspots 1, to consolidate the discipline foundation and improve the ability to mobilize and use knowledge. New curriculum standards, new textbooks and new college entrance examination are not without basic knowledge, nor are they without knowledge system. It's not that you don't need basic knowledge to investigate current political hot issues. So in the review of hot issues, we must always remember the basic knowledge, and never engage in hot issues without basic knowledge. It is necessary to carefully study the examination scope and the examination scope of the main knowledge specified in the examination instructions, master the relevant basic knowledge and main knowledge, master the context of relevant knowledge, and clarify the scope and conditions of application of knowledge. The understanding of key knowledge must be accurate, and it is forbidden to be specious and have a little knowledge. At the same time, it is necessary to solve the systematic problem of knowledge, build a knowledge network and establish a subject knowledge system according to the internal relationship of knowledge. We understand and master knowledge in the system, which can improve the efficiency of mastering knowledge and deepen our understanding of knowledge. Only in this way can we lay a solid knowledge foundation for analyzing and answering practical and hot issues. Mobilizing knowledge refers to the ability to quickly and accurately link the received information with the relevant knowledge content on the basis of obtaining and interpreting the test information, and it is the choice and extraction of reserved knowledge by candidates according to the test information and requirements. The ability to mobilize and use knowledge, that is, the ability to reorganize and transfer knowledge. Only by consolidating the discipline foundation, especially mastering the main knowledge and key knowledge, and grasping the overall framework and internal relations of knowledge, can we mobilize and use knowledge accurately and flexibly. 2. Pay attention to current political hotspots, strengthen training in a targeted manner, and improve the application ability of integrating theory with practice. The information used in the college entrance examination proposition is often a hot topic of current politics. The college entrance examination proposition does not avoid hot issues, and often takes major social hot issues as the theme, requiring candidates to apply what they have learned, analyze and solve problems. Our analysis of hot issues is mainly to guide students to improve their ability to mobilize knowledge, judge, explain, explore, ask questions and analyze and solve problems. It is not necessary for our teacher to make a systematic and comprehensive analysis of every hot issue, nor is it necessary to cover everything. We can provide students with materials for their own analysis and discussion, or let them find materials for their own exploration and discussion. To adhere to the combination of universality and particularity, we should not only analyze the hot spots in a general sense and draw general conclusions, but also analyze them in combination with specific materials to realize the transfer of knowledge and the improvement of ability. Hot issues don't need us to memorize. The key is to learn to analyze and think. By reviewing hot topics, we can reduce the strangeness of college entrance examination questions, thus reducing students' psychological pressure and enhancing their self-confidence. In the process of reviewing hot issues, we must pay attention to improving our ability, develop the habit of analyzing and thinking, and master the methods of analyzing hot issues. For hot issues, the general procedure for our analysis and thinking is: (1) Carefully examine the questions, including the examination materials and setting questions. It is necessary to find out how many layers of meaning the material has and understand the general idea of each layer; It is necessary to summarize the implied views from each layer of materials in combination with the examination materials; It is necessary to comprehensively summarize the central ideas revealed by various materials; It is necessary to understand the internal relationship between materials; Pay special attention to the title, the first and last sentences and punctuation. When asking questions, we should grasp the key words, head words and determiners; It is necessary to clarify the scope of knowledge required by the topic; It is necessary to understand the specific requirements of setting questions, including the aspects, angles and scope of answering questions. (2) determine the argument and conceive. According to the central viewpoints and arguments of the materials, we should recall the relevant theoretical knowledge in textbooks and current politics, analyze the specific requirements of screening questions, and determine the theoretical knowledge to be used in answering questions; You should conceive in your mind before you start writing, make clear the main points and levels of the answer, and ensure clarity. (3) Carefully organize the answers and accurately express the basic theories; It is necessary to organically combine basic theories with materials, guide materials with theories, and explain theories with materials; The analysis of materials should grasp the essence; Attention should be paid to the combination of analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, and theory and practice. We should take the review of current political hotspots as a means, use the thinking method of combining analysis and synthesis, and use our existing knowledge to comprehensively interpret hot issues, so as to improve our ability and consolidate our knowledge. 3. Strengthen analysis and synthesis, and improve the ability to answer hot issues of current politics. In general, multiple-choice questions on current politics directly take the content of current politics as the breakthrough point, and design topics and options around these topics. These questions directly serve as the carrier or object of the test questions, and directly examine the understanding and mastery of the candidates. When answering questions, candidates should carefully examine the questions, make clear the meaning of the questions and the stipulation of the meaning of the questions, find out whether each option itself is correct, and then link it with the meaning of the questions, distinguish personality from personality, possibility and necessity, and choose the options that match the meaning of the questions. Subjective questions about current politics generally need to be answered in combination with materials, which requires candidates to carefully read the background materials given by the questions in the process of answering questions, and at the same time, associate the knowledge points that may be involved and assessed in the textbook, broaden their thinking, and pay attention to analyzing and evaluating this current political material from multiple angles and levels. Some political questions will also use charts to examine candidates' reading ability, logical thinking ability, analytical ability, comprehensive ability, text organization and expression ability. To answer this question, we should first look at the chart materials, including topics, charts and notes. The title is often the summary of the whole chart, which specifies the direction of material discussion and is the central meaning of the material. It has a finishing touch on our exams and answers, especially to help candidates answer the contents reflected in the chart. All the charts want to illustrate one thing, some truths and principles by comparison. Therefore, the key to reviewing charts is to find problems, changes and gaps from comparison. What needs special reminder is that some candidates tend to ignore the marks when reviewing drawings, which is very unfavorable for reading charts correctly. Annotations are an organic part of graphic discussion questions, and are usually necessary supplements and extensions of graphic information. Only when the titles, charts and notes are considered together can we correctly understand the ideas expressed in the materials and answer the questions easily. It is worth noting that the essay topics are: ① "What does the material reflect" and "How does the material reflect the relevant truth", and the answer requirements of the two questions are different. The former is from individual to general, and the latter is from general to individual. "What does the material reflect?" If the materials given only reflect the truth from a single angle, it is good to tell the truth when answering. It is particularly important to point out that when you ask "What is truth" for complex materials from multiple angles, you usually need to briefly explain the relevant truth in combination with the corresponding materials. "How does the material reflect the relevant truth" requires that the relevant truth reflected by the material should be answered in combination with the corresponding material, and it is not possible to simply list the truth without listing the material. (2) "What phenomena are reflected by several materials (truth * * *)" and "What phenomena are reflected by several materials (truth)", the answer requirements of these two questions are completely different. The former requires several materials to be summarized together, while the latter requires that each material must be explained separately; (3) "How does the material reflect the relevant truth" and "What should we do according to the material?" The requirements of these two questions are fundamentally different and cannot be confused. Most of the political essay questions are "the materials are outside the book and the opinions are in the book", but there are also very few answers hidden in the materials. To master the answering skills of current political questions skillfully and flexibly, it is necessary to practice more, summarize more, grasp the law, and make practice make perfect. To do a good job in political subjective issues, especially the hot issues of current politics, we should do "one deduction and three combinations": we should closely follow the requirements of the topic, combine teaching materials, combine materials and combine current politics. 4. Grasp the direction correctly and choose the review materials. Every year, the political college entrance examination involves a wide range of hot topics, and the angle and method of giving questions are also very flexible. At present, there are many kinds of current affairs review materials, which make students dazzled and confused. This requires our teachers to guide students to carefully screen, strictly check and choose an ideal material as a review reference. When selecting materials, we should pay attention to the following aspects: (1) Try to choose books published by official publishing houses, and the quality of such books can generally be guaranteed. (2) The data should not be too thick. Students don't have that much time, and there is no need to spend too much time to understand the background materials of current politics. The key is to learn the methods of analysis and thinking. (3) The data should be targeted and timely. Review before the political exam in senior three still needs to "return to books and stick to the test sites". Therefore, the selected review materials should also reflect this requirement, and the teaching of basic knowledge and skills should be scientific and enlightening. (4) The requirement of the political college entrance examination for current affairs and politics is "major current events at home and abroad during the year", which requires us to buy review materials.

Two.

1 cultivate a sense of the times

First of all, through daily attention, cultivate your sense of the times, that is, have a basic understanding of your own times.

What kind of era do you live in, the best or the worst? What are the basic characteristics of this era? What kind of reform is most needed in this era? What is the biggest problem? These will be reflected in current affairs news, not one or two, but daily current affairs news. The best way to understand a society is to observe what the media reports every day, what happens in this society every day and what people pay attention to. By continuously paying attention to current news, we can cultivate our sense of the times, integrate ourselves into this era, and grasp the basic context of this society from a macro perspective.

What is the purpose of cultivating a sense of the times? Is to make your article have a sense of the times. Knowing what era you are in, your topic, your language, your viewpoint, your position and judgment, you will stick to this era, reflect this era, integrate into this era, have the taste and temperature of this era, and will not be divorced from this era.

2 cultivate critical thinking

Secondly, paying attention to current news is to cultivate one's critical thinking.

Watching news is not only watching news, but also forming one's own views on news while paying attention to it. When you watch the news, you will naturally have such a consciousness: if I were asked to comment on this matter, what would I say? When watching every news, in fact, the subconscious will have their own judgments, and they are silently commenting. For example, when you see the incident of Deng Yujiao, you will naturally have your own opinion. Pay attention to the Qinghai earthquake, and you will have a judgment on the disaster in your heart. With constant attention, we will gradually develop critical thinking and critical thinking mode. Yes, I have the impulse to express myself. Write it out. Congratulations, you finally started.

3 cultivate the awareness of contact with current events

Thirdly, paying attention to current affairs news can cultivate your sense of current affairs connection.

Writing a commentary on current affairs is often not just a piece of news, but a test of a person's ability to connect different news, to find connections from seemingly unrelated news, to think of another news a month ago from today's news, and to highlight a point in comparison. From this to that, I said it backwards. I quoted a series of similar news to combine comments and enhance the persuasiveness of my views.

For example, in April of 20 10, I wrote an editorial for www.zhlzw.com Beijing News, entitled "Why the small social security reform has aroused great public concern". News from the beginning: China's protocol reform has new measures. In the future, China leaders' visits will simplify the arrangement of sending-off activities organized by embassies and consulates abroad, and will no longer organize overseas Chinese to meet them at the airport. Seeing this news, I remembered that there were similar reforms in 2003. The reform at that time was that "China leaders will not hold farewell ceremonies when they leave their posts and return to Beijing." Through consulting the data, it is found that this reform has been going on. From 65438 to 0978, the venue of the welcoming ceremony for foreign guests to visit China was changed from the airport to the Great Hall of the People Square, and no mass welcome was organized. Since the 1980s, leaders have generally stopped holding thank-you banquets when visiting China. Because you pay attention to current news, linking these reforms will make your comments have a strong sense of history.

I also noticed another news of President Hu Jintao's visit to the United States that day. During the talks, Hu Jintao and Obama also observed a minute's silence for the miners who died in the recent coal mine accidents in the United States and China, respectively. I said in my article that mourning for the victims is also a ceremony, which is consistent with the value orientation of "canceling farewell" in protocol reform. The minor reform of protocol has aroused great concern, which contains the public's recognition of people-oriented politics. Even a small change in details can touch the heartstrings of the public's yearning for people-oriented politics.

When writing this article, I also remembered some negative news. That is, the welcome atmosphere when local leaders travel is very popular. No matter how hot the weather is, let the pupils dress up, hold flowers to welcome them, and shout slogans to set off the prestige of the leaders. I will use this news in my comments to argue from the opposite side that "reduce the red tape of greeting from local leaders and lead the trip to reduce the disturbance to the people." In this way, the article will be full and the argument will be strong.

Also, continuous and habitual attention to current events will make your articles closer to reality and your views more realistic. The editor-in-chief of a media review told me that I don't like to ask experts to write reviews now. Why? Experts write professional articles because they focus on a certain problem for a long time, which is very professional, authoritative and in-depth. However, due to insufficient attention to current affairs, it is impossible to combine cognition with news well, and writing current affairs comments like academic papers is seriously divorced from reality. The articles written by many experts are full of abstract reasoning and lack the habit of combining his reasoning with the news he usually pays attention to, so they have no realistic penetration and persuasion. Such an article is simply not suitable for publication in the current affairs commentary section.
