AP人文地理怎么复习 考点比例告诉你不能“偏心”复习

对于母语非英语的AP考生来说，AP人文地理的难度主要集中在词汇、理解、总结、写作。在这4个难点里，词汇又是基础中的基础。接下来我们就进一步讲讲AP人文地理的复习建议与必背词汇。

AP人文地理学什么？

AP的人文地理将内容基础分为了7个主要话题：

1.      地理：基础概念及技巧学习

2.      人口与移民

3.      文化特征及发展过程

4.      政治和组织

5.      农业、生产以及乡村土地利用情况

6.      经济发展及工业化进展

7.      城市以及城市地区土地利用情况

AP人文地理内容等同于大学内容的入门基础概念级别，所以对于有申请社科类专业的学员来说学习APHuman Geography就等同于获得了先行了解大学课程结构，更加了解人文地理课程中概括广阔的社会类、经济类、政治类以及综合性问题以及更加重要的培养全面的分析能力和逻辑思维。

AP人文地理考试特点

在人文地理的考试中我们有75题选择题，通过定义类、应用类以及数据类问题主要测试学员快速的辨别能力，另外我们还有书面表达题，测试学员将地理定义带入到真实事件及问题中的能力，以及是否具备良好的写作能力能够清楚表达自己的观点。同时涉及大量需要分析和总结。

总结来说AP人文地理是一门知识内容较为基础但是考核内容非常具体的科目，就好比课上提出的概念是一个框架，如何搭建成问题中需要的回答需要学员去思考。

在考试中地理的每个话题内容都是按照一定比例出现的，以第一单元“基础概念”为例，内容比例为5%-10%左右，剩下的6个单元都是13%-17%的内容比例，也就是暗示我们考生复习时不能“偏心”任何一科，需要面面俱到。
