Exams really cost a lot of money, especially since hotels turn into a seller’s market during exam periods and inevitably raise their prices. Many hotels have hiked their rates to such an extent that they might as well be publicly shamed on a lamppost.

Candidates are truly pitiable—most of them don’t even have stable jobs. The exams themselves are hard enough, and yet they still have to endure being exploited by these people.

Complimenting others is actually quite nice. Last night, the driver I had booked stood me up, and a taxi happened to come pick me up instead. I praised the driver for her excellent skills, and she ended up sharing a lot about her life with me.

The exam didn’t go so well, though. I messed up transferring and filling in the answer sheet. I had the correct answers calculated but didn’t write them down—so frustrating. It took me several minutes to calm down and focus on the essay section. For the first question, I had already finished writing but thought of adding more, only to exceed the word limit. It was really annoying. These little details still need more practice.

After the exam, I grabbed a shared bike and rode to Haina Plaza to find something to eat. Nothing really appealed to me, so after some thought, I ordered a KFC single meal. I asked the staff to verify my coupon, but she told me to do it myself on the app. Feeling a bit annoyed and considering my slow phone, I just left. At the station, I ended up eating the eggs I had in my bag and the mooncakes Huanhuan bought for me.

Huanhuan took me to eat sour soup fish noodles, and I was so hungry that I finished even the soup. We walked home and also had some big gluten skewers on the way. I told Huanhuan about an Indian movie I had watched part of on the bus today—Karma, and after we got home, we continued watching it. Her mom couldn’t stand the bloody scenes and went back to her own room. We stayed up very late before going to bed.

As I left the house, I overheard two kids talking. One of them said:

When I was little, I thought if a mouse got sick, it should take rat poison.

Exams are truly expensive, especially since hotels turn into a seller’s market whenever there’s an exam—price hikes are inevitable. Many hotels have raised their rates so much that they practically deserve to be publicly shamed on utility poles.

It’s tough for examinees too. Most of them don’t have stable jobs to begin with. The exams themselves are already hard enough, and on top of that, they have to endure being bled dry by these price-gougers.

Spending money but still not getting a decent place to stay is really frustrating.

在开始前，我想我们要先有一个共识，即备考面试也好，做其他事也一样，想要有一个好的结果，有俩点分成重要，一是慎始善终。慎始不一定善终，但不慎始一定不善终，你的开始几乎就注定了你的结果。刚开始时，你一定要冷静思考，仔细调查，根据你自身的情况，制定自己的计划，不要人云亦云，也不要只靠一腔热血，否则最后悔之晚矣。二是讲究“三方”。即方向要正确，方法要有效，方式要适宜。下面我从“三方”的角度谈谈自己对面试的理解以及如何备考面试。

一、方向——方向要正确

（一）以何种心态参加面试

我的笔试分数是第一，且比第二名高了5分。当我将消息告诉父母及妻子后，他们的第一判断是催我赶紧去报个培训班，起初我接收他们的观点，于是我开始调查面试培训班的教学流程和成果，想要找个适合自己的培训班，但随着我的调查，我发现培训班不适合我。

实事求是的说，现在的培训班是越来越贵，大多数人报的都是1对10甚至1对20的大班。哪怕老师水平再高，也无法根据你的具体情况，根据你二十年的积累，为你量身定做答题体系，最后无非就是去开个口，模拟一下场景，另外背一些材料和模板。让人最难过的是，你最后也许会发现，同样是报班，有钱人报的就是一对一或者一对二。他们的老师更好，他们能够有量身定做的指导，他们有更多的开口练习机会。最后自己挑灯夜读笔试第一，在面试时考虑到家庭负担，选择了普通班，结果却是功亏一篑。

现在面试的比重越来越高，笔试仅仅是敲门砖，只要进面，大家就是同一起跑线。如果你人云亦云地直接报班，那岂不是将命运交到了他人手上？我只能替你祈祷，你的对手都报的普通班，不然你就已经输了。当然，培训班不是无用的，是否报班要根据你的自身情况而定，简单来说，如果你连嘴都张不开，那就先去培训班张张嘴，但不用去太久。一定要给自己留出时间，有针对性地提高自己。

继续讲，准备面试的心态。在面试上，面试，只争第一，而且你要想方设法的超越别人，绝不能将命运的主动权交给他人！在内容上，不要畏畏缩缩，盲目认为别人给的都是好东西，一味地去记忆去背诵。而是要相信自己，要敢于亮剑，答出只属于你的内容。哪怕失败也不要灰心，因为只要你方向正确，那么你就没有失败，你永远在成功的路上。同时，你的风采和由内而外的自信，是培训班的人绝对没有的，越挫越勇，越战越强，你终将能够会当凌绝顶。

（二）面试的本质

只要你方向正确，那么你就没有失败，你永远在成功的路上。那么，什么是正确的方向？这就要思考另一个问题——面试的本质。或者说，面试，考察的到底是什么。考察你的表达是不是官方用语？考察你能否在2-3分钟之内提出国家政府怎么做的建议？考察你是否提前了解公务员的组织架构及办事流程？

我想，全都不是。选拔出来的公务员，不是用来说官话的，也不指望你是卧龙凤雏。国家想选拔的人，是要能够听党指挥，实实在在能干活的，能为人民服务的。

从公务员考试全过程（笔试+面试）的必要性、合理性、完整性来分析的话，或者说，笔试考察的是“才”。那么，面试考察的，就是“德”。问大家一个问题，“才”重要？还是“德”重要？如果这是一道面试题，培训班也许会说，两者都很重要。但我认为，是“德”更重要。因为落实到最后的工作上，技能都是可以快速培训的，况且公务员干的大多数不是专业的技术活，上手很快。但是，“德”，是你二三十年的修为和积累，是难以再改变的，“德”决定了你是否会为人民服务，决定了你能否为人民服务。浙江省公务员考试，笔试占40%，面试占60%。宁可当初遭受一些非议，浙江也要提高面试的比重。为什么？因为“德”比“才”更重要！“才”，为末。“德”，为本。

再反观一下现在的公考现状，面试培训班风靡，考生把自己最宝贵的“德”隐藏起来，却以套话空话，或是背诵的话来展现自己，实在是本末倒置。考官睁大了眼睛，看到的也都是带着面具的人，无奈只能凭着感觉，矮子里拔高个。但凡有个敢子亮剑的，将自己的“德”展现出来的,考官都会眼前一亮，终于等到你，还好我没放弃。这个也不能怪培训班，因为屁股决定脑袋，他不会告诉你“德”靠短期培训是没有用的。那么，考察的是“德”，什么是德？这个我学识浅薄，不敢妄言。只能从面试的角度，粗浅的谈谈德在面试中体现。简单的说，德是你看待事物、为人处世的态度和方法。或者说是你的三观。

落实到面试答题的表现形式上，概括为三点:表达、思维、三观。

表达流程是基础。设想如果你是考官，多数考生是培训班套路，观点、视角大同小异，安时候谁能表达流畅，让考官听的舒服，就是关键了。又或者说你很有自己的想法,但是说的支支吾吾，照样分不会高。这是从考官角度出发的，至少，你要让他听的舒服，不尴尬。在此之上，你流畅的表达所展现出来的自信，比起那些唯唯诺诺的考生，绝对是鹤立鸡群，所以说，表达流畅是前提，是基础。但就这第一笑，很多人就过不了，说到看都是被固化了思维，连话都不会说了。

思维合理是核心。想要在短时间内提高你思维的高度深度广度，那是天方夜谭，你能追求的，只有“合理”。你要把“理”说出来，让考官来研判你的思维，但你的理能不能“合”，这可真的不简单。想要合夺“理”，合夺“大道”,需要你在平日注重修行，下文详说。

三观共鸣得人心。政者，正也。想要成为公务员，前提是你的三观要“正”。在此基础上，如果你的答题能与考官三观共鸣，或者说“共情”，那你必是王者。但这个共情，是自然而然的，是由内而外的，切勿强求，否则弄巧成松。

二、方法——方法要有效

既然考察的是表达、思维、三观,在备考时，就要思考针对这三点行之有效的提高方法。

（一）如何表达流畅

1.多练，多开口

每次练习都当成面试。自己想象真实场景，就和练习行测一样，平时练习都要去计时，追求的就是实战。

2.创造式答题

不要被机构的材料所限制了，自己禁锢自己。除非你深入地了解并思考你背的材料，否则你很难真正地做到话学活用。如果你只是简单的记忆材料，那么你在考场上的答题方式就是回忆。回忆式答题有几个不可避免地缺陷：一是经常“额”“响”等停顿；二是你的眼睛会不自觉地往斜上方看；三是你会越来越紧张。你的停损，你的眼种，对面的考官会非常准确的捕捉到。既然你是背的，他也就给你个基本分了。我个人是“创造”式答题，我的大脑里没有任何案例和材料。这些案例和材料我早已化千无形，所有案例都是为我所用，而不是限制我的思维。我会根据题目的侧重点，讲案例中相对应的点来印证我的观点。让如我面试那关，排序是在下午偏靠后，全考场除我之外，都在看材料，背材料。我不仅没看，我直接就没带材料，我只带了白纸和笔，不想再去看任何案例。

3.扬长避短

说你擅长的、了解的内容。事物的背后都有规律可循，这些规律是相通的。你要去抚掘你了解的东西，这样你说起来才能头头是道。比如你的大学专业相关的知识，你工作领域的相关内容，你的兴趣爱好等等。平时答题时多往你熟悉的领域思考掘，这样你面试的时候才能游刃有余。但你的兴趣爱好，最好能给你带来一些能上台面的谈资。如果你天天微博刷八卦，看肥皂剧，那面试的时候自然词穷。让如我，我会每天阅读人民日报评论，除此之外，我对国际关系很感兴趣。平时我经常看沈逸老师和陈平老师的视频,而我面试时举的例子，常常会往国际关系、中美博弈上靠。因为我平时看的多，还都是大佬的言论，所以我讲的自然比背材料的同学更加深刻及形象生动。同时我的眼神语速语调和背材料的同学完全不同，这一点考官是很敏感的。

4.将物致知

格物，就是把物品放在一个个格子里。也就是你的思维要有条理，方能致知。你要研究出一套符合你思维习惯的答题体系，综合题怎么答，人际题怎么答，组织题怎么答，漫画题怎么答。每个题型，你脑子中都要有一个或两个的答题框架。这有这样，把工作做在前，你才能在面试时的极短时间内梳理好答题脉络，这个框架，不是培训班给你的模板，而是你自己探索制定的适合自己的思维框架。同时也不要自己把自己框死，要学会根据题目进行变化。

5.心态调整

多数人是面试唯唯诺诺，吵架重拳出击,归根结底是中国人往往擅长说教他人。你把自己当考生，那么面对考官的威庄，紧张在所难免。但是，你把自己当作老师，艳对面其他考官当成你求知若竭的学生呢?亦或者是把考官看成你的老婆，老公，孩子?选择一种你舒适的讲述心态,也许会对你的表达有所帮助。

（二）如何思维合理

1.何谓思维？

我以综合分析题为例，说一下我的答题体系。体系的设定，有两次飞跃和一个原则。两次飞跌:从感性认识到理性认识的飞跃，从理性认识到实践的飞跃。一个原则:辩证原则。一阴一阳之调道。第一次飞跃，从感性认识到理性认识的飞跃。从题干中，名言警句或者社会现象，提取出要论述的观点或者所发现的问题。随后举例论证或者辅以正反论证，来证明观点，说服对面的考官。你的观点不是夸夸其谈，一定要有依据，也就是有现实意义。比如我那年面试，“从善如登，从恶如崩”，我是以中美抗疫期间，中国和美国的不同做法所形成的不同局面，来解释这句话的现实意义。即第一次飞跃的两个要点:“言之有理”和“言之有物”。相比于第二次飞跃，其实第一次飞跃是更难的。因为他对你思维的深度高度广度的要求很高，有的人仅仅只能看到表面，有的人能看到本质。这个很难在短时间内提高，因为这是二三十年的积累。如果一个月时间就让你在原本落后的情况下超越他人，那面试也就失去意义了。我们无法提高思维的深度高度广度，但我们可以拓展思维的角度，“破题之法”。能让你在一筹莫展之时，快速找到突破口，至少有话可说。总的来说，有问题导向、原因导向、结果导向、目标导向四种思维角度，根据题目选择一至两种合适的且你擅长的。问题导向:这个现象背后存在什么问题。原因导向:领导人、古人为什么要说这句话。结果导向:一个行为会造成怎样的结果，来判断你是否赞同。目标导向:组织题你每一步要达到什么目标。第二次飞跃,从理性认识到实践的飞跃。你的观点要能指导实践,你的观点才有意义。但这第二次飞跃，一定要讲的切题，要讲出你的真情实感。我的第二次飞跃，基本都是讲个人的做法。因为讲国家讲政府，没有意义，我们不是卧龙风雏，讲不出一针见血切实可行的方案。所谓的国家政府媒体怎么做基本背的都是套路和模板千一律，没有意义。考官听到废话肯定是不舒服的,是减分的。而讲个人做法，或者为什么要这么做，会更有实际意义，也更能展现你的三观，你的“德”更能够引发三观共鸣。另外也是让答案更加立体，既高的上去，也低的下来。因为我的第一次飞跃往往是从大处切入的，所以我的第二次飞跃会立足在个人上。这里体系了一个思维原则，就是辩证中的“大”与“小”。比如“从善如登，从恶如崩”中我谈的是青年为什么要从善，我整个语境是在中美博弈的大环境下，所以我提出的做法，是不仅是要善个人，更是要从修身齐家平关下的角度去从善，以国家为己任，平关下不是去征服世界，而是做对的事让其他的国家自愿地来学习，比如自愿隔离和戴口罩所以每个人都可平关下，民族复兴需要我们每个人的努力。而青年作为民族的希望,更要树立这样的观念。有的题目谈具体的做法更好，有的题目做法显而易见，那就要谈为什么这么做。如果你不擅长讲国际关系，你的整套答题体系都会和我不一样。但这都没有关系，你只要答出你的亮点，同样没有问题。面试本就没有标准答案，个人的性格都不相同，回答的必然也都不相同。而我们要的就是去展示自己，而不是伪装自己。反观培训机构，他们给出的往往是“标准答案”你如果死记硬背的话，那就很遗憾了。

2.何为合理?

一阴一阳之谓道。所有事物都具有两面性，你的思维要学会辩证，这样你的回答才更客观、更理性，更能说服考官。例如“从善如登，从恶如崩”，除了“大与小”的思维，用“正与反”的思维同样有话可说。比如在这个纷繁复杂的社会，好与坏，善与恶无法截然二分，这就要求我们从善时要有自己的原则和辩识力。既不要好心办坏事，更不能不去辨别而做一个老好人，因为“多愿，德之贼也”。关于“从恶”，道德经中说“天下皆知美之为美，斯恶已;皆知善之为善，斯不善已”，恶存在的意义，就是让我们去发现善。所以当我们看到“从恶”之事尽管可能不能去阻止，但要“见不贤而内自省也”。第二次飞跃，阐述完如何做之后，增加你的辩证逻辑，篇幅不要长，不要喧宾夺主，只作为第一次飞跃的补充。这样你的整段论述会更加客观完整勇加符合一阴一阳之道。对于你的辩证逻辑是“正与反”还是“大与小”，或者两者都有，根据题目的侧重点以及你所擅长的内容而定。只要你有核心的思维逻辑,外在的表现形式是可以变化的，也是必须要变化的。正所谓“不可为典要，唯变所适”，我们只能也必须做到“持经达变”，才能以不变应万变,才能不管题目如何创新，我们都能从容面对。培训机构所谓的模板，所谓的“几要素”“几步法”等等，实在是舍本逐末，南辕北辙。我们要学习的，不是不变的模板。而是不变的内核，以及如何持经达变。

（三）如何三观共鸣

能做到表达流畅，思维合理，已经能进入面试第一样队了，但要成为王者，还需要“三观共鸣”。三观共鸣，需要你说的话，做的事要符合真正中国人的伦理。有两个要点，一是从实际出发，二是具有“东方智慧”。从实际出发，就是你的回答要符合实际，而不是纸上谈兵。试问如果你的答案在现实中根本无法操作，那么考官如简能感同身受，如何打心底地认同你呢?“东方智慧”，就是你的处事，你说的话，要妥当，要巧炒。外国人要就是要，不要就是不要但中国人要讲有不要的意思，不要中有要的意思。你要深刻的领会一阴一阳之调道的精神。另外一点，你在面试答题时，也要符合面试的规矩，哪怕你的做法在现实中的确效果好，但如果运个做法上不了合面，你也不能讲。

三、方式——方式要适宜

（一）多积累，修身

但这不是一两个月的事，这是你二三十年的积累。与其说是如何面试,不如说是如何做事，如何做人。面试具体的“木”与“法”，都是因人而异的,只是让你能更好地展现自己，仅此而已。核心是“道”，真正掌握道的人，对于仅会术和法的人，在面试上是降维打击，是碾庄。而这个“道”，需要你在日常生活中，学习，修行。推荐一些学习材料:

1. B站上，曾任强教授讲解的《易经》《道德经》《为官之道》《人际关系》教你做一个真正的，顶关立地的，外圆内方的，中国人。
2. B站上，中央电视合2019的《主持人大赛》》全中国最强面试选手，个个都是王者，不学他们学谁?半决赛和决赛我看了不下五遍。仔细揣摩他们的答题逻辑以及学习他们的答题秋态。
3. 公众号“人民日报评论”中的“睡前聊一会”板块看官媒如何点评最热时事。
4. B站上陈平老师和沈逸老师等专家的视频了解最新国际时事，让你的论证更有国际视野。

（二）多开口，多练

面试是一个思维加工和输出的过程。你平时看了再多书，听了再参视频,都只是输入。你必须把你获得的内容进行思考，再表达出去你才是完整地在学习面试。你可以去培训班练，但建议报小班，虽然贵一点，但能多开口。像我是自学的，因为我找不到一起练的人，我就买了一面镜子，自己录音，自己复盘。

做个总结，面试最重要的是做到“持经达变”，甚至你在考场上，也要会变。因为“时”不同，情况就不同，你就应该去造“时”地变化。一个考场30个人，你排序在前，和排序在后回答的时候，是不一样的。排序在前，考官听过的内容少，你的回答就可以偏全一些。排序在后，常规回答评委已经听出了萤，你的回答就要偏“精”。孔老夫子看完《易经》后发出了感慨，“时也，命也。”这个时，不是让你听关由命，而是说人要不断学习，不断提升自己。当你修行足够之时,上天自然会让你成为一名公职人员。现在有许多年轻人在b站上教面试,我建议大家谨慎地看，批判地看。我不打算在公开平合上讲面试题,因为这会输出太多价值观。我认识到自己年纪太轻，所学有限几年后回头看，我会觉得原来的观点很动稚和愚蠢。所以，我就与大家在私下交流，共同进步，就不公开发面试视频了。最后，还是这四个字，持经达变。国家需要的不是流水线上千篇一律的灵魂，而是一个个多样的，有独立思维且三观正的人。只有这些“德”“才”兼备的人汇聚在一起才能更好地建设国家。愿国泰民安，国富民强。

My habits have been quite poor lately—I often find myself mindlessly picking up my phone to scroll through videos on Bilibili or Douyin. This behavior wastes a lot of time and significantly harms both my eye health and my normal routine. I need to be more mindful. I believe this is achievable because I didn’t used to have this habit, and I’ve also realized that most of the time I spend watching these videos, I’m not even happy.

I need to cultivate awareness!

15:34 Finished Reviewing Mistakes

Sometimes I wonder whether recording these trivial daily details and mundane accounts is meaningless. But then I think again—these words are all traces of my existence, no matter how small or ordinary. Without them, I wouldn’t even remember what I did last Monday, what happened to me, or what emotional journey I went through. Perhaps one day, all of this will become my precious treasure, even if only I think so.

17:33 Played 3 Rounds of Plants vs. Zombies Hybrid Edition—Quite Stress-Relieving

Feeling a bit physically tired.

21:03 Back from a Walk

Sleep is the most important thing in life. Eating is too, but when you’re hungry, you can’t help but eat.

Today, I said to Huanhuan:

I was thinking—if we don’t have children in the future, what could replace the role of a child and become as strong a bond, something we’d strive for our entire lives?

I think shared ideals, building a career together, or pursuing interests could work.
Jeapo

Coincidentally, I came across an article titled Advice: Cultivate an “Output-Oriented” Hobby as Early as Possible, which further strengthened my thoughts.

22:35 Finished a Comprehensive Aptitude Test

Compared to the essay section, this really is just about copying from the material. The answers are all in the text—you just need to find them and reorganize them in the required format.

22:46 Added a rating Attribute

I added a rating attribute to my diary template to evaluate the importance and significance of each day. Unlike mood, sadness, pain, or happiness won’t affect the score—it’s solely meant to highlight the insights and reflections I’ve gained.

The rating ranges from 0 to 5, with rough numbers to avoid overthinking when filling it out. The rating is converted into icons before the day of the week—the higher the score, the darker the shading.

In short, growth earns a high score.

00:46 Finally Finished Debugging

Now I can use this data to analyze my long-term state. The later it gets, the more energetic I feel. Time to sleep.

Just finished debugging the code. There are always so many things to do in my own room—thinking about folding laundry, taking out the trash, what to eat for lunch… Before I knew it, a lot of time was wasted on these little tasks.

21:41 Finished a Vocational Aptitude Test

Scored in the top 35%. It was okay—still plenty of room for improvement.

This afternoon, I completed a set of “Comprehensive Application Ability” exercises, then cooked some rice and went grocery shopping in my pajama pants. Bought a lot of stuff: strawberries, choy sum, cabbage, tofu, and pork belly. Originally planned to make it last two days, but I got greedy and wanted to eat everything. Ended up not being able to finish it all by myself, so I called my brother over to share the meal.

My brother had to work overtime at noon and didn’t come over until 1 PM. I ate two bowls of rice at lunch and then three more bowls in the evening. Cooking for myself is terrifying—I always end up eating too much.

I was sluggish in the morning, fiddling with this and that, and before I knew it, the morning was gone. The printer keeps acting up a little—I’ll send it back and try a replacement.

Today, I worked through a set of practice tests. The Administrative Aptitude Test was manageable, but I still need more practice with summarization and synthesis for the Comprehensive Application Ability section. I should also familiarize myself with the basic formats of various writing styles. Tomorrow, I’ll tackle a few more test papers specifically to sharpen those skills.

I called home today to ask Mom how things were going. She said the land has been leased out, the cows have been sold, and the pigs are still a bit underpriced. Then my sister took Mom’s phone to talk to me—Ningning and Manman were as cheerful as ever. I noticed tears welling up in my sister’s eyes but didn’t press her about it at the time. Only after hanging up did I realize why. So, I wrote her a letter (letter_20250325201618.en), hoping it might bring her some comfort.

This noon, I stir-fried some Chinese toon, but it wasn’t particularly tasty. Instead, the toon aroma filled the entire room. After stir-frying it again, it turned out somewhat better.

Vocational aptitude tests differ slightly from administrative aptitude tests, with relatively simpler questions that allow sufficient time for completion. However, the simplicity of the questions presents two challenges:

1. Without additional practice or techniques, most scores will cluster around the average, yet only the top performer will be selected.
2. Carelessness and an inability to prioritize will inevitably lead to poor results.

Therefore, the key to success lies in the number of questions answered accurately within the limited time—speed and precision are crucial.
The Path to Victory

Here are some subtle yet effective techniques:

1. For paragraph sequencing questions, take a moment to calmly review for better accuracy.
2. When calculating dates involving years, always check for leap years.
3. For comparison questions, use hypothetical scenarios to simplify the analysis.
4. Pay close attention to whether the question requires a positive or negative answer—misreading is common. Tip: Circle “true” or “false” before answering.
5. For data analysis, always locate the relevant data first before calculating—otherwise, skip it.
6. The last question in data analysis often requires extensive computation; mark a random answer and move on temporarily.
7. For probability problems, categorization is a straightforward and effective method.
8. For complex problems, the substitution method is a viable approach.
9. Additional causes do not weaken an argument, but reversing causality can.
10. The compound growth rate formula: $R = r_1 \times r_2 + r_1 + r_2$.
11. Clarify the relationships between exports, imports, and proportions—otherwise, errors are inevitable.

Comprehensive Application Ability (Category A)

Material Processing

1. Mark paragraphs first to avoid missing details.
2. Skim the entire material to identify key sections and themes.
3. Review the introduction to see if it aids in answering questions.
4. Prioritize macro-level, standardized expressions.
5. Estimate the number of points and logic based on word count and paragraphs (~50 words per point).
6. Extract directly from the material—focus on standardized, recurring, and summarizing phrases, especially the first and last sentences.
7. Merge similar content; avoid splitting the same paragraph—summarize with a standardized term.
8. Use wavy lines for problems and straight lines for solutions.

Answering Strategies

1. Copy original wording to avoid misinterpretation.
2. If logic is unclear, extract by paragraph. Use action-oriented phrases (e.g., “strengthen,” “improve,” “provide,” “enhance”).
3. Solutions are often found directly in the material. Avoid over-detailing—stick to broad suggestions.
   Example: For low motivation—promote benefits, offer incentives, boost engagement.
4. Clarify the question’s context. Problems and solutions don’t always need one-to-one correspondence.
5. Manage time strictly—completing all questions is the priority.

Exam Techniques

1. Read instructions carefully to address all required points.
2. Consolidate overlapping points to avoid disorganization.
3. Follow formatting requirements (e.g., meeting minutes don’t need extra solutions).
4. For unreasonable demands in materials, explain rejection reasons.
5. For integrated tasks like briefings, group problems in one section and suggestions in another.
6. Analyze keywords (e.g., “achievements” refers to results—misreading leads to errors).

Example Questions

(202305) As a staff member of the G City Library’s Reader Services Department, propose improvement suggestions for the library’s public lectures based on Material 3 (35 points).

1. The question asks only for “improvement areas”—no need to detail problems.
2. Most suggestions are in the material—extract directly.

(202305) Draft a speech for Director Du’s agenda at the School-Library Collaboration Meeting, addressing issues and responsibilities to enhance cooperation (based on Material 4, 45 points).
Speech Template:
*“Distinguished guests, today’s theme is XX. The School-Library Collaboration Project aims to [purpose]. Currently, key issues include: [list prioritized problems]. To address these, responsibilities are outlined as follows:

• Library: [tasks].
• Schools: [tasks].
  Through this division, we aim to [expected outcome].”*

Preface and whatnot, adding an extra title can’t hurt.

I. Principles of Question Type and Word Count Allocation

(A) Short-Answer Questions (Summary/Policy Suggestions/Comprehensive Analysis)

1. 200-word question: Aim for 180-190 words (90%-95% of the required count).
2. 300-word question: Keep it between 270-285 words (90%-95%).
3. 400-word question: Target 360-380 words (90%-95%).
   • Key technique: Reserve 5%-10% flexibility to avoid point deductions for exceeding the word limit.

(B) Essay (Argumentative Writing)

1. 800-word requirement: Aim for 750-850 words (93%-106%).
2. 1000-word requirement: Keep it between 950-1050 words (95%-105%).
   • Core logic: Title + opening paragraph should account for 10%, each main argument paragraph for 25%, and the conclusion for 10%.

II. Dynamic Adjustment Strategy Matrix

(Table suggested)

III. Five-Step Method for Practical Control

1. Pre-structuring: Spend 5 minutes building a content framework, noting the expected word count for each section.
2. Keyword marking: Use ▲ to mark key scoring points, ensuring core content is prioritized.
3. Segmented writing: Check progress every 100 words (for short answers) or 200 words (for essays).
4. Compression technique: Use “verb-object structures” (e.g., “improve regulatory system” instead of “we need to establish a comprehensive regulatory system”).
5. Final calibration: Reserve 3 minutes to delete redundant adverbs and conjunctions (e.g., “的”, “了”).

IV. Handling Special Situations

1. Information overload in materials: Use the “key point merging method” to integrate similar items (e.g., combine 5 similar cases into “a certain region achieved Y results through X measures”).
2. Significant word count shortfall: Add “dimensional expansion” (supplement from different perspectives such as enterprises, the public, and the government).
3. Essay word count warning: Compress example arguments in advance, keeping each argument within 80 words.

V. Training and Improvement Plan

1. Create a “word count-content” conversion table: Record the word count required for different types of key points.
2. Challenge of sentence compression: Compress a 150-word paragraph to 100 words without losing the original meaning.
3. Implement modular writing: Fix templates for the opening and closing (each about 80 words), and dynamically adjust the middle paragraphs.

By following these strategies and techniques, candidates can better manage their word count, ensuring their answers are both concise and comprehensive, thereby maximizing their scores in the essay-based civil service examination. After mastering these techniques, it is recommended to engage in deliberate practice with 10 sets of past exam papers to gradually develop a muscle memory for word count.

梦到在参加一个活动，我有事起身准备走出会场。不料坐在我后面的人左腿往左伸得老长，支了我一个绊子，我一个踉跄就倒了下来。

于是我开始和他理论，企图说服他这是他的过错，并寻求旁人的佐证。

他也蛮横地急于证明自己并没有错，说：我的脚想放在哪儿就放在哪儿，这是我的自由。我听到自由这个词不由得愣了一下，因为我觉得这个词很神圣。

“但你的自由伤害、侵犯到了我，你应该为你的自由所造成的后果道歉，并在以后注意克制你的自由。”

……

我们就这样面红耳赤地争吵着，也没个结论。然后郭师傅就出面来帮我说话，突然郭师傅出现在我的梦里，我也便放弃了争吵。开始想郭师傅现在的处境如何，是否安好？过阵子再联系他吧。

08:41 开机

今天来到单位门口，看到三只狗，感觉很温馨的样子，想拍照给欢欢看。待我走进一些发现不对劲，疑似他们的儿子和它的妈妈屁股凑在一起，不对劲。我拐弯走进单位从另一个视角看到，果不其然，它们在交歡，而且还分不开了，似是六眼求助的望着我去帮它们一把。可我哪儿敢赌这个“似”，我现在这个处境被他们咬了三口那可是倒了大霉。不过他们还是有一家三口的模样，老的老，小的小，毛长的长，耳朵塌的塌。

11:14 忙了一上午，抽空做完一套试卷

懒得核对答案了，下午再核对吧。

快做完的时候，突然冒出一个想法：就是在位者、执政者，看到国家繁荣昌盛、百姓安居乐业。确实是会有一种自豪感与成就感的，如同策略游戏取得最终胜利一般。所以我们有理由相信，也完全相信“全心全意为人民服务”这句话的真情实感。

20:18 吃完饭、洗好碗

我弄炒饭是真的有一手，不管怎么做都很好吃。

23:03 晚安

看会儿书睡觉了，天天熬夜，天天都很困。

想学微观经济学、nano、lazyvim之类突然冒出的东西。还想去咸鱼捡一些电子垃圾来折腾，我今天可能是真的闲了。老毛病又犯了

17:40 整合了Obsidian启动Hugo的功能

又到饭点了，先学习一下申论。

21:38 想法

我应该去做测试工程师，因为我总是能发现各种系统的bug。包括去外面吃饭的时候，我也总能够遇到很少人能够遇到的事情，比如吃出纸巾、看到虫子头发之类的事情，不管是我自己挑的地方还是朋友带我去的地方。

23:36 时间不早了

晚上刷了刷历年真题，不免感慨现在的题目相比之前越来越难了。社会人拥有的平均知识在稳步上升，而幸福感却没有。
