STEP是什么考试？

Sixth Term Examination Paper（STEP）是由剑桥大学招生考试委员会组织的大学入学测试。它通常作为英国几所高等院校，包括剑桥大学、帝国理工学院、伦敦大学学院、华威大学等院校的数学、计算机等相关专业录取必要条件之一。

Question 2

This was a popular question and candidates in general achieved good marks. Mostcandidates approached part (i) with reasonable confidence and followed the question’sintended path of separating variables and integrating directly. Of these, the majority failedto consider the integral of1xasln|x|.This was entirely understandable for work on C1 as thequestion specifies that it lies entirely in the first quadrant. Whileln⁡(xy)was okay to dealwith in the case where bothxandywere negative, it would be good for candidates to beclear about the way in which the modulus function is being dealt with here.

Around 1 in 5 candidates took the alternate route of differentiating the given answer toshow that it fitted the differential equation in the question. Unfortunately, not only is thismuch more demanding work, but almost all such attempts failed to realise the need tocheck the initial condition x = y = 1 as part of the solution. Candidates should be clear aboutthe distinction between “show” and “verify” in such questions.

In part (ii), the sketching of two fairly straightforward functions caused unexpecteddifficulties when it came to putting them together suitably on the same diagram; it wasimportant to show that the two curves intersect twice and many sketches failed to havethem crossing more than once, if at all. This made the subsequent reasoning and sketchofC1 very awkward. Even for those who got this far entirely successfully, it was a commonproblem to find the sketch of C1 drawn without the helpful guidance supplied within thequestion and any results arising from correct working to date. In particular, it was importantfor candidates to demonstrate the symmetry in the line y = x and the restrictions providedby the lines x + y = 2 and x + y = 4, all of which really should have appeared on the diagram.

Many attempts petered out by the time of part (iii), and very few candidates attempted toconsider a graphical method (directly analogous to the method promoted in part (ii)) toshow that the curve of C2 was constrained by the line x + y = –2. By the time they came todraw this second solution to the original differential equation, many candidates hadforgotten either or both of the given bits of information; namely, that there was symmetryin y = x and that C2 existed only in the 3rd-quadrant. Many candidates just assumedthat C2 was the reflection of C1.

Candidates should be advised not to attempt to sketch curves by plotting points, as wasseen in a number of cases. Instead, the information established in earlier parts of thequestion should be used to ensure that the key points are marked and that the shape iscorrect.
