How to write a high-scoring historical composition
How to write a short paper on history exam? How can I get high marks? We can start from the following aspects. Examine the meaning of the topic, clarify the theme, organize the materials, and lay out the structure.

Examination means that after the candidates get the topic, they should read it carefully, make clear what the topic of the paper is about, make clear the direction of the materials given by the topic, and make clear the specific requirements for writing this paper. For example, the above topic is about the spread and exchange of Chinese and western civilizations, and the scope should be considered from both time and space. In addition to the general writing requirements, it is emphasized that the argument must be linked with Chinese and foreign historical facts.

After examining the meaning of the question, you should determine the theme of your writing. Because the topic appears in the form of materials, candidates can look at the materials from different angles and put forward different themes. The theme of the above paper can be: human civilization is jointly created by all nationalities in the world; Human civilization was jointly created by generations; Human civilizations complement each other, blend with each other, promote each other and so on. However, we should know that as a small paper with less than 1000 words, there can only be one theme, so we must make clear the theme of this paper to avoid rambling and ambiguity. On the topic selection, candidates should try to choose topics that are familiar to them and convenient for their writing.

Collating historical materials is to consider what historical materials to use and how to use them to organize writing after the theme is determined. Take the above-mentioned theme "human civilization is complementary, mutual blending and mutual promotion" as an example. The historical materials that can be sorted out include the fact that China's Tang Dynasty culture led the world and was eclectic, the historical facts of China's four great inventions, and the historical facts of the impact of modern industrial civilization on traditional agricultural civilization. Historical facts can come from my previous junior high school and my current senior three studies, and also from the accumulation of my usual reading. You should try to use materials that can explain your point of view and promote your argument.

After the above three things are done, candidates should not neglect to scrutinize the structure and wording of the whole article before writing. Check in advance how many paragraphs your article will be divided into, how the materials you choose are laid out, what words and phrases you use, etc. Wait until you are mature.

A good historical prose not only meets the requirements of the topic in writing and viewpoint, but also has the characteristics of clear viewpoint, combination of history and theory, strong logic of argument, concise writing and beautiful writing. These requirements determine that candidates must attach importance to the study of basic historical knowledge, master solid basic historical skills, cultivate their reading, analysis and writing skills, and make strategic plans. Candidates write in the specified time and space, which limits the time for candidates to think and conceive. To write a good paper in a short time, you must master writing skills, so that you can put pen to paper in writing.
