1. Algebraic Simplification | 代数化简
A typical question asks you to simplify an expression such as 3a + 5b − 2a + 7b. Group the like terms carefully: 3a − 2a = a, and 5b + 7b = 12b, so the final answer is a + 12b. Never combine unlike terms, such as a and b, because they represent different unknown quantities.
典型题目要求化简表达式，例如 3a + 5b − 2a + 7b。小心合并同类项：3a − 2a = a，5b + 7b = 12b，最终答案是 a + 12b。切勿把不同类项（如 a 和 b）合并，因为它们代表不同的未知量。
When expanding brackets like 4(3x − 2), multiply the term outside by each term inside: 4 × 3x = 12x and 4 × (−2) = −8, giving 12x − 8. Watch for negative signs, especially when a minus sits in front of the bracket, e.g. −2(5 − y) = −10 + 2y.
遇到如 4(3x − 2) 的扩号展开，将外面的项乘进括号内每一项：4 × 3x = 12x，4 × (−2) = −8，得到 12x − 8。特别注意负号，例如 −2(5 − y) = −10 + 2y，符号要变号。
2. Solving Linear Equations | 解一元一次方程
For an equation like 5x + 4 = 2x + 19, aim to isolate the variable on one side. Subtract 2x from both sides to get 3x + 4 = 19. Then subtract 4: 3x = 15. Finally divide by 3 to find x = 5. Always substitute your answer back into the original equation to check it works.
解如 5x + 4 = 2x + 19 的方程，目标是把变量隔离到方程一边。两边同减 2x 得 3x + 4 = 19，再减 4 得 3x = 15，最后除以 3 得到 x = 5。务必将答案代回原方程检验。
If the equation contains brackets, expand them first. For instance, 3(x + 2) = 2(x − 1) + 8 becomes 3x + 6 = 2x − 2 + 8, then 3x + 6 = 2x + 6, subtract 2x from both sides to get x + 6 = 6, so x = 0. Many students lose marks by forgetting to multiply every term inside the bracket.
若方程含括号，先展开。例如 3(x + 2) = 2(x − 1) + 8 展开得 3x + 6 = 2x − 2 + 8，即 3x + 6 = 2x + 6，两边减 2x 得 x + 6 = 6，所以 x = 0。很多同学忘记括号内每一项都要乘上系数而丢分。
3. Ratio and Proportional Reasoning | 比与比例推理
Sharing an amount in a given ratio often appears. If you share £120 between Amy and Ben in the ratio 3:5, first add the parts: 3 + 5 = 8. One part is £120 ÷ 8 = £15. Amy gets 3 × £15 = £45 and Ben gets 5 × £15 = £75.
按给定比例分配金额是常见题。若将 120 英镑按 3:5 分给 Amy 和 Ben，先加总份数：3 + 5 = 8。一份为 120 ÷ 8 = 15 英镑。Amy 得 3 × 15 = 45 英镑，Ben 得 5 × 15 = 75 英镑。
When a map scale is given as 1:25000, a length of 4 cm on the map represents 4 × 25000 = 100 000 cm in reality. Convert to metres: 100 000 cm ÷ 100 = 1000 m, or 1 km. Keep units consistent and show your conversion steps clearly to avoid errors.
若地图比例尺为 1:25000，图上 4 cm 表示实际 4 × 25000 = 100 000 cm。转换为米：100 000 cm ÷ 100 = 1000 m，即 1 km。保持单位一致，并清晰写出转换步骤以避免错误。
4. Direct and Inverse Proportion | 正比例与反比例
If y is directly proportional to x, you can write y = kx. Given that y = 24 when x = 6, find k: k = 24 ÷ 6 = 4, so the formula is y = 4x. Then use it to find y when x = 10: y = 4 × 10 = 40.
若 y 与 x 成正比，可写成 y = kx。已知 x = 6 时 y = 24，求 k：k = 24 ÷ 6 = 4，因此公式为 y = 4x。当 x = 10 时，y = 4 × 10 = 40。
In inverse proportion, y = k/x. If y = 8 when x = 3, then k = 8 × 3 = 24. For x = 4, y = 24 ÷ 4 = 6. CCEA questions often test whether you can find k first, then apply the formula to a new value.
反比例关系写成 y = k/x。若 x = 3 时 y = 8，则 k = 8 × 3 = 24。当 x = 4 时，y = 24 ÷ 4 = 6。CCEA 考题经常检验你是否能先求常数 k，再把公式用于新数值。
5. Angles in Triangles and Parallel Lines | 三角形内角与平行线中的角
You are often asked to find missing angles using basic angle facts. In any triangle, the sum of interior angles is 180°. If two angles are 65° and 50°, the third is 180° − (65° + 50°) = 65°.
常要用基本角度规律求缺失角。任意三角形内角和为 180°。若已知两角为 65° 和 50°，第三个角为 180° − (65° + 50°) = 65°。
With parallel lines, look for alternate angles (Z‑shape) that are equal, corresponding angles (F‑shape) that are equal, and co‑interior angles (C‑shape) that sum to 180°. Labelling the diagram and writing a short reason for each step will help you secure full marks.
平行线情形中，注意内错角（Z 型）相等，同位角（F 型）相等，同旁内角（C 型）和为 180°。在图上标注并每一步写明理由，有助于拿下全部分数。
6. Area and Perimeter of Compound Shapes | 组合图形的面积与周长
To find the area of a compound shape, split it into rectangles and triangles. Work out each sub‑area separately and sum them. For a shape formed by a rectangle of 8 m by 5 m attached to a triangle of base 8 m and height 3 m, the rectangle area is 8 × 5 = 40 m², the triangle area is ½ × 8 × 3 = 12 m², total area = 52 m².
求组合图形面积时，将其分割成矩形和三角形。分别计算每个子面积再求和。如一个由 8 m × 5 m 矩形与底 8 m、高 3 m 三角形组成的图形，矩形面积 8 × 5 = 40 m²，三角形面积 ½ × 8 × 3 = 12 m²，总面积 = 52 m²。
Perimeter requires adding all outer edge lengths. Be careful not to include internal dividing lines. If a side length is missing, use known parallel lengths to work it out. Always include units (cm, m, etc.) in your final answer.
周长则需要把所有外边长度相加。注意不要包含内部分割线。若有边长缺失，利用已知的平行边长推算。最终答案一定要带单位（cm、m 等）。
7. Volume and Surface Area of Prisms | 棱柱的体积与表面积
Volume of a prism = area of cross‑section × length. For a triangular prism whose cross‑section is a triangle with base 6 cm and height 4 cm, the cross‑sectional area = ½ × 6 × 4 = 12 cm². If the length is 10 cm, volume = 12 × 10 = 120 cm³.
棱柱体积 = 横截面积 × 长度。对于横截面是底 6 cm、高 4 cm 三角形的三棱柱，横截面积 = ½ × 6 × 4 = 12 cm²。若长度为 10 cm，则体积 = 12 × 10 = 120 cm³。
Surface area sums the areas of all faces. For the same prism, the two triangular faces each have area 12 cm², and the three rectangular faces have areas worked out from the triangle sides. Draw a net if it helps you visualise every face.
表面积是所有面的面积之和。同一个棱柱，两个三角形面各为 12 cm²，三个矩形面的面积根据三角形的边长求得。若有必要可画展开图帮助想象每个面。
8. Averages and Range | 平均数与极差
Given a data set: 7, 9, 12, 7, 5, 8, find the mean by adding all values (7+9+12+7+5+8 = 48) and dividing by the number of items (48 ÷ 6 = 8). The median is the middle value when ordered: 5, 7, 7, 8, 9, 12. With six numbers, the median is halfway between 7 and 8, so 7.5.
给出一组数据：7, 9, 12, 7, 5, 8，求平均数：所有值相加（48）除以项数（6）得 8。中位数是将数据排序后（5, 7, 7, 8, 9, 12）取中间值。六个数据，中位数是第 3 和第 4 个数的平均值，即 (7+8)/2 = 7.5。
Mode is the most frequent number: here it is 7. Range is the difference between largest and smallest: 12 − 5 = 7. Comparing two data sets using both mean and range is common on CCEA papers.
众数是出现次数最多的数：这里是 7。极差是最大值减最小值：12 − 5 = 7。CCEA 试卷常要求用平均数与极差比较两组数据。
9. Probability of Combined Events | 组合事件的概率
When rolling a fair six‑sided die and flipping a coin, list all outcomes systematically. The probability of an even number and heads is found by identifying favourable outcomes: (2, H), (4, H), (6, H) — 3 outcomes out of 12 total, so P = 3/12 = 1/4.
当掷一枚质地均匀的六面骰子并抛一枚硬币时，系统列出所有结果。偶数且正面的概率：有利结果有 (2, H), (4, H), (6, H) — 3 个，总共有 12 个结果，因此 P = 3/12 = 1/4。
For two independent events, you can multiply probabilities: P(even and heads) = P(even) × P(heads) = 3/6 × 1/2 = 3/12 = 1/4. Understanding when to add and when to multiply is essential.
对于两个独立事件，可将概率相乘：P(偶数且正面) = P(偶数) × P(正面) = 3/6 × 1/2 = 3/12 = 1/4。理解何时相加、何时相乘至关重要。
10. Straight Line Graphs | 直线图像
Questions often ask you to plot the graph of y = 2x − 3 by completing a table of values. For x values from −2 to 2, substitute into the equation: when x = −2, y = 2(−2) − 3 = −7; when x = 0, y = −3; when x = 2, y = 1. Plot these points and draw a straight line through them.
常考题目要求通过填表画出 y = 2x − 3 的图像。取 x 从 −2 到 2，代入方程：x = −2 时，y = −7；x = 0 时，y = −3；x = 2 时，y = 1。描点后连成一条直线。
The gradient (m) tells you how steep the line is; here m = 2 means for every 1 unit right, go up 2 units. The y‑intercept (c) is where the line crosses the y‑axis; here c = −3. Being able to read m and c from y = mx + c is a key skill.
斜率 (m) 表示直线的倾斜程度；此处 m = 2 表示每向右 1 个单位，向上 2 个单位。y 轴截距 (c) 是直线与 y 轴的交点纵坐标；此处 c = −3。能从 y = mx + c 读出 m 和 c 是一项关键技能。
11. Pythagoras’ Theorem | 勾股定理
In a right‑angled triangle, a² + b² = c², where c is the hypotenuse. To find the length of the hypotenuse when the shorter sides are 6 cm and 8 cm: c² = 6² + 8² = 36 + 64 = 100, so c = √100 = 10 cm.
在直角三角形中，a² + b² = c²，其中 c 为斜边。当两直角边分别为 6 cm 和 8 cm 时，求斜边长：c² = 6² + 8² = 36 + 64 = 100，所以 c = √100 = 10 cm。
To find a shorter side, rearrange: a² = c² − b². If the hypotenuse is 13 cm and one leg is 5 cm, then a² = 13² − 5² = 169 − 25 = 144, so a = √144 = 12 cm. Always identify the hypotenuse first to avoid mislabelling.
求直角边则要移项：a² = c² − b²。若斜边为 13 cm，一直角边为 5 cm，则 a² = 13² − 5² = 169 − 25 = 144，因此 a = √144 = 12 cm。务必先确定斜边，以免标错。
12. Financial Literacy: Percentages and Interest | 财务素养：百分数与利息
A typical question gives a camera priced at £240 with a 15% discount. Find the discount amount: 15% of 240 = 0.15 × 240 = £36. The sale price is 240 − 36 = £204. Alternatively, you can multiply by 0.85 directly: 240 × 0.85 = £204.
典型题目如一台相机原价 240 英镑，打 15% 折扣。折扣金额：240 的 15% = 0.15 × 240 = 36 英镑。售价为 240 − 36 = 204 英镑。也可直接乘 0.85：240 × 0.85 = 204 英镑。
For compound interest, use the formula Total = P(1 + r/100)ⁿ. If £500 is invested at 3% per annum for 2 years, Total = 500 × (1.03)² = 500 × 1.0609 = £530.45. Simple interest would give £500 + (500 × 0.03 × 2) = £530. Read the question carefully to know which method to apply.
复利问题使用公式 总额 = P(1 + r/100)ⁿ。若 500 英镑以 3% 年利率投资 2 年，总额 = 500 × (1.03)² = 500 × 1.0609 = 530.45 英镑。单利则为 500 + (500 × 0.03 × 2) = 530 英镑。仔细读题确定用哪种方法。
