高考

the national college entrance exam

3月3日，北京市新高考首次适应性测试开试。3日起，连续四天，5万余名考生“居家考试”。

Up to 50,000 students in the capital started a four-day dry run for the gaokao, the national college entrance exam, on Tuesday. All the students were taking the test at home.

考生获取试卷后，居家自我管理或在家长监督下完成测试，部分学校同时利用相关平台开启“云”监考，老师全程在线陪考。由于此次测试需要考生居家进行，家长成为了主要的“监考员”。

When the 150-minute test began, most students had a parent as their supervisor. Afterward, the examinees took photos of the answer sheets or scanned them.

今年是北京市实行新高考的第一个年度，高考科目将调整为“3+3”模式，即3门统考科目+3门自选科目。

统考科目（compulsory subjects）为语文、数学、英语三科，选考科目（optional subjects）可从物理、化学、生物、历史、地理、思想品德6科中任选3科。文理不分科。

The simulation consists of examinations for compulsory subjects — Chinese, mathematics and English — as well as for three optional subjects.

Starting this year, students in their last year of high school in Beijing have been required to take examinations in three optional subjects on a list of six — physics, chemistry, history, geography, biology and politics.

此次测试，前两天进行统考科目的测试；后两天为选考科目的测试。这一安排与新高考的科目考试时间安排完全一致。

2月28日上午，在国务院联防联控机构举行的新闻发布会上，教育部副部长翁铁慧表示，将通过研究判断疫情发展情况、组织专家评估等方式，认真研究今年高考实施方案，并及时向社会公布相关工作安排。

For the date this year, Weng Tiehui, vice-minister of education, said on Feb 28 that the ministry is closely evaluating the epidemic and its effect on the exam and will publish the schedule in due time.
