1. Algebraic Brackets and Sign Errors | 代数括号与符号错误
When expanding (x – 3)², a frequent mistake was writing x² – 9, completely missing the -6x term. The correct expansion must use (a – b)² = a² – 2ab + b².
展开 (x – 3)² 时，一个常见错误是直接写成 x² – 9，完全遗漏了 -6x 项。正确的展开必须利用 (a – b)² = a² – 2ab + b²。
Similarly, multiplying out brackets like -2(x – 4) often led to -2x – 8 instead of -2x + 8, because the negative sign was not distributed correctly across the entire bracket.
同样，展开 -2(x – 4) 时常误写成 -2x – 8，而正确答案应为 -2x + 8，原因在于负号未能正确地分配到括号中的每一项。
2. Quadratic Inequalities Misconceptions | 二次不等式的误解
Many learners treated x² > 4 as simply x > 2, forgetting the critical part x < -2. The correct solution set for x² > 4 is x < -2 or x > 2, which is best found by sketching the parabola y = x² – 4.
许多学生将 x² > 4 简单处理为 x > 2，忘记了关键部分 x < -2。x² > 4 的正确解集是 x < -2 或 x > 2，最好通过绘制抛物线 y = x² – 4 来得出。
Another regular error occurred when multiplying or dividing an inequality by a negative number, where the direction of the inequality sign must be reversed. For instance, solving -2x < 8 requires dividing by -2, giving x > -4.
另一个常见错误发生在对不等式乘以或除以负数时，不等式符号的方向必须反转。例如，解 -2x < 8 需要两边除以 -2，得到 x > -4。
3. Function Notation and Domain Confusion | 函数记法与定义域混淆
Stating f(x) = √x and then saying f(-4) is 2 or treating it as a real-valued function without restricting the domain to x ≥ 0 was a typical slip. Domain must always be considered when involving square roots or fractions.
给定 f(x) = √x，却写出 f(-4) = 2 或将之视为实值函数而未将定义域限制为 x ≥ 0，这是典型的疏忽。涉及平方根或分式时，必须始终考虑定义域。
In composite functions, students frequently evaluated gf(x) as f(g(x)) instead of g(f(x)). Remember, gf(x) means apply f first, then g. Carefully reading the order is essential.
在复合函数中，学生经常将 gf(x) 错误地计算为 f(g(x))，而非 g(f(x))。请记住，gf(x) 表示先作用 f，再作用 g。仔细阅读运算顺序至关重要。
4. Surds and Rationalising Errors | 根式与有理化错误
A classic mistake was simplifying √(a² + b²) as a + b. For example, √(3² + 4²) = √25 = 5, but it is not 3 + 4. The square root of a sum is not the sum of the square roots.
一个经典错误是将 √(a² + b²) 化简为 a + b。例如，√(3² + 4²) = √25 = 5，而不是 3 + 4。和的平方根并不等于平方根的和。
When rationalising a denominator like 1/(√a + √b), many pupils only multiplied by √a – √b in the numerator but forgot to multiply the denominator by the conjugate. The correct step is (√a – √b)/(a – b).
在对分母进行有理化，例如 1/(√a + √b) 时，许多学生只在分子乘了共轭式 √a – √b，却忘记分母也需乘以共轭式。正确的步骤是 (√a – √b)/(a – b)。
5. Trigonometric Equation Solutions | 三角方程的解
When solving sin θ = 0.5 for 0° ≤ θ ≤ 360°, only giving θ = 30° was a major omission. The other solution in the given range, θ = 150° (since sin (180° – θ) = sin θ), was frequently missed. Always use the CAST diagram or sine graph.
在 0° ≤ θ ≤ 360° 范围内解 sin θ = 0.5 时，只给出 θ = 30° 是一个重大遗漏。常漏掉该区间内的另一个解 θ = 150°（因为 sin(180° – θ) = sin θ）。务必使用 CAST 图或正弦曲线。
Another error involved trigonometric identities: writing sin (A + B) = sin A + sin B. The correct compound angle formula is sin A cos B + cos A sin B, and misapplying it cost marks.
另一个错误涉及三角恒等式：将 sin (A + B) 写成 sin A + sin B。正确的和角公式是 sin A cos B + cos A sin B，误用会失分。
6. Logarithmic and Exponential Mishandling | 对数与指数的误用
One of the most widespread mistakes was believing log (A + B) = log A + log B. The correct law is log (AB) = log A + log B. Applying this incorrectly led to wrong solutions in equations.
最普遍的错误之一是认为 log (A + B) = log A + log B。正确的对数是 log (AB) = log A + log B。错误地应用该法则导致方程求解错误。
When solving 2ˣ = 5, candidates often took logs incorrectly or forgot to divide by log 2. The correct method is x = log 5 / log 2, which can be computed directly.
解方程 2ˣ = 5 时，考生经常取对数出错或忘记除以 log 2。正确的方法是 x = log 5 / log 2，可直接计算。
7. Differentiation of Fractional and Negative Powers | 分数及负指数的微分
Differentiating √x as 1/(√x) or forgetting to change the power was a recurrent fault. Write √x = x^½, then d/dx (x^½) = ½ x⁻½ = 1/(2√x).
误将 √x 的导数写作 1/(√x) 或忘记改变指数，是反复出现的错误。应先将 √x 写成 x^½，然后 d/dx (x^½) = ½ x⁻½ = 1/(2√x)。
Similarly, with 1/x³ = x⁻³, many wrote d/dx (x⁻³) as -3x⁻⁴ but made sign mistakes. The derivative is -3x⁻⁴, which is -3/x⁴. Always bring power down and subtract one from exponent.
类似地，对于 1/x³ = x⁻³，许多人写作 d/dx (x⁻³) = -3x⁻⁴ 时出现符号错误。导数是 -3x⁻⁴，即 -3/x⁴。永远记住将指数下移并减去 1。
8. Integration: Constant of Integration and Limits | 积分：积分常数与上下限
In indefinite integration, losing the ‘+ c’ term was a mark-losing habit. For example, ∫ 6x² dx = 2x³ + c. Never omit the constant of integration.
在不定积分中，遗漏 ‘+ c’ 项是失分习惯。例如，∫ 6x² dx = 2x³ + c。切勿省略积分常数。
When evaluating definite integrals, sign errors when substituting the lower limit were common. For ∫₁² (4x³) dx = [x⁴]₁² = 16 – 1 = 15, but some erroneously computed 16 + 1 or ignored the lower limit.
计算定积分时，代入下限时常出现符号错误。例如 ∫₁² (4x³) dx = [x⁴]₁² = 16 – 1 = 15，但有人错误地算成 16 + 1 或忽略了下限。
9. Coordinate Geometry: Equation of a Line | 坐标几何：直线方程
Mixing up gradient formulas and incorrectly finding the midpoint as (x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁ – y₂)/2 instead of (x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁ + y₂)/2 was a slip. The midpoint is the average of coordinates, not a difference.
混淆斜率公式，并错误地认为中点坐标为 (x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁ – y₂)/2，而非 (x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁ + y₂)/2。中点是坐标的平均值，而非差值。
Another typical error was using the form y = mx + c but substituting a point incorrectly to find c, often resulting in an intercept that does not satisfy the line’s conditions.
另一个典型错误是使用 y = mx + c 形式时，代入点求 c 发生错误，导致截距不满足直线条件。
10. Binomial Expansion Validity | 二项式展开的有效性
When expanding (1 + bx)ⁿ, students often forgot to state the condition for validity, |bx| < 1. Omitting this restriction when the question explicitly asked for it lost a mark.
在展开 (1 + bx)ⁿ 时，学生常常忘记给出有效性条件 |bx| < 1。当题目明确要求此条件时，遗漏它将丢失分数。
Furthermore, misapplying the formula n(n-1)/2! etc., with negative or fractional n, was common. The expansion for (1 + x)⁻¹ must use the correct binomial coefficient: ¹C₁ = 1, ²C₂ etc. are not used; instead use n(n-1)/2!.
此外，当 n 为负数或分数时，误用公式 n(n-1)/2! 等的情况很常见。(1 + x)⁻¹ 的展开必须使用正确的二项系数：不是组合数，而是 n(n-1)/2! 形式的系数。
11. Vectors: Position vs Direction | 向量：位置向量与方向向量
Confusing the position vector of a point with the direction vector of a line was a costly mistake. The direction vector for the line AB is given by b – a, where a and b are position vectors of points A and B.
混淆点的位置向量与直线的方向向量是一个代价高昂的错误。直线 AB 的方向向量是 b – a，其中 a 和 b 分别是点 A 和 B 的位置向量。
In parallelism questions, some stated that two vectors are parallel if one is a multiple of the other, but then wrote a = b instead of a = λb. Always include the scalar multiplier λ.
在平行问题中，有人知道两向量平行需满足一个向量是另一个的倍数，却写成 a = b 而不是 a = λb。务必包含标量倍数 λ。
12. Graph Sketching and Transformations | 图像绘制与变换
Sketches often lacked key features such as intercepts, asymptotes, or correct end behaviour. For example, drawing y = 1/x with the curve crossing the axes, or not showing the horizontal asymptote y = 0.
绘制的图像常常缺少关键特征，如截距、渐近线或正确的末端走势。例如，绘制 y = 1/x 时曲线穿过了坐标轴，或者没有显示水平渐近线 y = 0。
Transformations were frequently applied in the wrong order. For y = 2f(x – 3), many shifted first and stretched second, but the correct interpretation is a translation by 3 to the right, then a vertical stretch by factor 2.
图像变换经常被以错误的顺序应用。对于 y = 2f(x – 3)，许多人先伸缩再平移，但正确的理解是先向右平移 3 个单位，然后再进行竖向拉伸，倍数为 2。
