1. Document Overview | 文档概述
The document is the official Cambridge Mark Scheme for 9709/11 Paper 1 Pure Mathematics 1, May/June 2021. It covers every question on the paper and states the marks available for each correct method, step, or answer. The total is 75 marks, and the file is 17 pages.
该文档是剑桥官方发布的 9709/11 Paper 1 Pure Mathematics 1 2021 年 5/6 月考季评分标准。它覆盖试卷中的每一道题，并说明每个正确方法、步骤或答案可得多少分。全卷满分 75 分，文件共 17 页。
The Mark Scheme is a public document, not a secret. Cambridge publishes it so that teachers and candidates can understand how marks are allocated. Used properly, it becomes a powerful revision tool, not just an answer key.
评分标准是公开文件，并非秘密。剑桥发布它，是为了让教师和考生理解分数如何分配。使用得当，它就是强大的复习工具，而不仅仅是答案册。
For 9709 Paper 1, the content includes quadratics, functions, coordinate geometry, circular measure, trigonometry, vectors, series, differentiation, and integration. The Mark Scheme reflects the specific skills tested in these topics.
9709 Paper 1 的内容包括二次函数、函数、坐标几何、弧度制、三角学、向量、数列、微分和积分。评分标准体现的就是这些主题中具体考查的技能。
2. Why the Mark Scheme Matters | 为什么评分标准至关重要
The Mark Scheme shows the exact number of marks for each stage of a solution. It also shows which methods are acceptable and which are not. This helps you understand where marks are won and where they are lost.
评分标准显示解题每个阶段的确切分值，也说明哪些方法可接受、哪些不可接受。这能帮助你理解分数从哪里获得、又从哪里失去。
Many students only check the final answer after a past paper. That is a weak revision habit. The real value comes from comparing your written solution with the Mark Scheme line by line, especially the M and A marks.
很多学生做完真题只核对最终答案，这是低效的复习习惯。真正的价值在于把你的书写过程与评分标准逐行比较，尤其是 M 分和 A 分。
The 2021 Mark Scheme also includes guidance notes for examiners. These notes explain special cases, equivalent answers, and how to apply follow-through marks. Reading them helps you think like an examiner.
2021 年评分标准还包含给阅卷官的指导说明。这些说明解释特殊情况、等价答案以及如何应用后续给分。阅读它们能帮助你像阅卷官一样思考。
3. The Three Generic Marking Principles | 三条通用评分原则
Cambridge International sets out three fundamental marking principles. Principle 1: marks must be awarded according to the specific content and skills stated in the Mark Scheme. Examiners cannot invent their own criteria.
剑桥国际制定了三条根本性评分规则。原则一：分数必须依据评分标准中明确列出的具体内容和技能要求给出。阅卷官不能自行发明评分标准。
Principle 2: all marks are integers. There are no half marks and no decimal marks. A mark is either awarded or not awarded.
原则二：所有分数均为整数，不给半分，也不给小数分。分数要么给，要么不给。
Principle 3: positive marking. Correct work earns marks, while wrong or omitted work does not deduct marks. There is no negative marking in 9709.
原则三：正向给分。答对给分，答错或遗漏不扣分。9709 没有倒扣分机制。
These three principles have a direct effect on exam strategy. If you are unsure about a question, you should still write down a sensible attempt. A blank answer can never earn marks, but a written method might earn M marks.
这三条原则直接影响考试策略。如果对某题不确定，你仍然应该写出合理尝试。空白答案永远不可能得分，但写出的方法可能拿到 M 分。
4. Positive Marking and Exam Strategy | 正向给分与考试策略
Positive marking means you should never leave a question blank. Write the relevant formula, set up an equation, or start a valid method. Even if you cannot finish, you may still earn method marks.
正向给分意味着永远不要留空。写出相关公式、列出方程，或开始一个有效方法。即使无法完成，也可能拿到方法分。
For example, in a differentiation question, writing the correct derivative rule may earn M1 even if your algebra later goes wrong. In a trigonometry question, using the correct identity may earn M1 even if the final angle is incorrect.
例如，在微分题中，写出正确的求导规则，即使后面代数出错，也可能拿到 M1。在三角题中，使用正确的恒等式，即使最终角度错误，也可能拿到 M1。
Positive marking also means that one mistake early in a question does not automatically destroy all later marks. If the Mark Scheme allows follow-through, later M and A marks may still be available.
正向给分还意味着，题目早期的一个错误不会自动毁掉后面所有分数。如果评分标准允许后续给分，后面的 M 分和 A 分仍可能获得。
However, positive marking is not a reason to be careless. You still need to show clear working, use correct notation, and give the required precision. Marks are awarded for what examiners can see.
但正向给分不是粗心的理由。你仍需要展示清晰过程、使用正确符号，并给出所需精度。阅卷官只能为你写出来的内容给分。
5. Mark Scheme Structure: M, A, B and Code Words | 评分标准结构：M分、A分、B分与代码词
The 9709 Mark Scheme uses a short code system. The most common codes are M, A, and B. Understanding these codes is essential for effective revision.
9709 评分标准使用简短的代码系统。最常见的代码是 M、A、B。理解这些代码对高效复习至关重要。
M stands for Method mark. It is awarded for using a correct method, even if the final answer is wrong. A stands for Accuracy mark. It is awarded for a correct answer or a correct intermediate value, usually dependent on a previous M mark. B stands for an independent mark, awarded for a correct answer or statement without needing a method.
M 代表 Method mark，方法分。即使最终答案错误，只要方法正确也能获得。A 代表 Accuracy mark，准确分。它针对正确答案或正确的中间值给分，通常依赖前面的 M 分。B 代表独立分，针对正确答案或陈述给分，不需要依赖方法。
| Code | 代码 | Meaning | 含义 | Example | 示例 |
|---|---|---|
| M1 | Method mark | 方法分 | Using a correct formula or rule | 使用正确公式或规则 |
| A1 | Accuracy mark | 准确分 | Correct value after correct method | 正确方法后得到正确值 |
| B1 | Independent mark | 独立分 | Correct statement or answer | 正确陈述或答案 |
| DM1 | Dependent method mark | 依赖方法分 | Only awarded if previous M mark earned | 只有前面 M 分获得才给 |
| FT | Follow through | 后续给分 | Allow an earlier error to be carried forward | 允许前面错误带入后续 |
| CAO | Correct answer only | 仅正确答案 | No alternative answer accepted | 不接受其他答案 |
| OE | Or equivalent | 或等价形式 | Any equivalent form is accepted | 任何等价形式均可 |
| AG | Answer given | 已给答案 | You must show full working | 必须展示完整过程 |
| WWW | Without wrong working | 无错误过程 | Correct answer must not follow wrong steps | 正确答案前不能有错误步骤 |
| ISW | Ignore subsequent working | 忽略后续过程 | After a correct answer, later wrong work is ignored | 答案正确后，后续错误不扣分 |
| SC | Special case | 特殊情况 | A specific alternative receives marks | 特定替代方法给分 |
| SOI | Seen or implied | 看到或隐含 | The mark can be given if the idea is visible | 只要思路可见即可给分 |
These codes tell you exactly what examiners are looking for. When you mark your own work, write the code next to each line. This trains you to see your solution through the examiner's eyes.
这些代码准确告诉阅卷官在找什么。自我批改时，在每一步旁边写下代码。这样能训练你从阅卷官视角审视自己的解答。
6. M Marks vs A Marks in Practice | M分与A分的实际区别
M marks are for method. If you choose the correct method but make an arithmetic slip, you can still earn M marks. A marks are for accuracy. They are usually awarded only if the method is correct or allowed by follow-through.
M 分针对方法。如果你选择正确方法但出现算术失误，仍可获得 M 分。A 分针对准确性，通常只有在方法正确或允许后续给分时才给。
For example, in solving a quadratic equation, setting the equation to zero may earn M1. Correctly factorising or using the formula may earn another M1. The final correct roots may earn A1. If the final roots are wrong, the M marks may
