IGCSE 生物操卷
这是一份按 Cambridge IGCSE Biology 0610 Paper 4 卷制编写的原创模拟卷:6 题结构题、24 个部分、80 分、1 小时 15 分。题目全部原创,并非历届试题或官方评卷参考。
这份卷是什么? 6 题结构题、24 个部分、80 分、1 小时 15 分,按 Cambridge IGCSE Biology 0610 Paper 4(Extended Theory)卷制编写,占整个科目 50%。
适合谁操? 准备 2026–2028 年考 IGCSE 生物 Extended 的考生;也可作中四至中五校内试前的章节总复习。
要操几耐? 一次过限时 75 分钟完成,之后用答案卷逐点对分,再只重做失分部分。
最易失分位? 计算题只写答案不写算式;解释题只写关键词而没有连成因果;单位漏写(dm3 min-1、g h-1)。
和 Paper 2 有何分别? Paper 2 是 40 题四选一选择题;Paper 4 全部是结构题和长答,要自己写出定义、计算步骤和因果解释。

答案卷有评分准则吗?
有。每个部分列出可得分点与分数,计算题另有完整算式,方便家长逐点对分。
可以用计算机吗?
可以。Paper 4 允许使用计算机,但所有计算步骤仍须写出,否则不获步骤分。
为何三语页面的题目都是英文?
因为 IGCSE 生物卷面本身是英文;中文页只翻译标题、说明与常见失分位,题目保持原语言以免影响操练。
