Time: the preliminary contest will be held on the second Saturday of March every year; The rematch is held on the second Saturday of April every year. The finals will be held in July;

Another way to enter the finals: sign up for the China Cup Winter Camp (held on June 5438+ 10 every year, and the first prize can directly enter the China Cup National Individual Finals).

How difficult is the China Cup?

All domestic cups come from non-governmental organizations. The value of a cup depends on the gold content of the test questions and the formality of the holding form. From these two aspects, the China Cup can be said to be the benchmark in the industry.

Several major events popular in China are: Hope Cup, China Cup and Spring Festival Cup. Among them, the Hope Cup is a popular competition, with low test difficulty, and more people can participate and win prizes according to regional awards. Around the beginning of 2003, the Spring Festival Cup was in full swing, and the first prize was in hand, which swept all over Beijing. Now the momentum of the North China Cup is the same, and the test questions are similar to the Spring Festival Cup, covering all the knowledge points, which is very classic. The test questions are not completely difficult, but very clever. People who can really understand can not only broaden their horizons, but also greatly help middle school science study. In contrast, the Japanese Arithmetic Olympiad (most of the questions were provided by China) made many Chinese Cup players depressed, because many questions had nowhere to start, and they were related to the review direction, so I won't repeat them one by one.

How to prepare for China Cup?

First of all, from the time point of view, the latest preparation time is the summer vacation from five to six. This means that before September, I already had some basic knowledge of Olympiad, such as sum and difference, sum times, difference times, age, planting trees, chickens and rabbits, profit and loss, trip engineering, percentage, number theory, geometry, drawers and so on.

So what review ideas do 20 10 junior high school students have before the middle cup exam?

Summer vacation is a node. First of all, we should systematically review the knowledge points of the fifth grade and before in the summer vacation to find loopholes. For example: number puzzle, congruence in number theory, various types of pigeon hole principle, etc. (involving the difficulty of the China Cup preliminary round); Special review in autumn: explain the knowledge of cup inspection and the difficulty of cup rematch inspection, and do practical exercises in winter vacation. In this way, if the previous topics are clarified, it will be reasonable for China to win the cup.

Revealing the learning method of dark horse

Some people don't understand: My baby has been learning Olympic Mathematics for almost four years. Why is the problem of Olympic Mathematics still a mess? Why did the neighbor win the first prize of China Cup after only studying for one year?

There must be an opportunity here. I'm just saying what most of these dark horses can do.

Please remember: those who have not studied for a long time but have made great achievements will make sure that they will understand a lesson after listening to it and solve a problem after finishing it.

I am very curious to ask a mother in Niu Wa if I can tell her the secret of getting such good grades in one year. She said: "I will go to class with him, and I will ask him to come back and tell me topics that I don't think he understands." I kept all the test papers, and later I asked him to tell me the previous questions again, so that he would know everything he had learned. "
