为什么建议维州中学生至少选择一门VCE科学（化学、生物、物理）学科？主要原因有两点：首先，很多大学专业都要求学生学习这三门科学其中之一，如果没有选科学则会丧失进入某些专业的机会；其次，这三门科学都是VCE中的“加分学科”，如果成绩出色，可以使学生的ATAR更具有竞争力。
Why is it recommended that middle school students in Victoria choose at least one VCE science subject (Chemistry, Biology, or Physics)? There are two main reasons: firstly, many university programs require students to have studied one of these three sciences. Without choosing a science subject, students may miss out on the opportunity to enter certain programs. Secondly, these three sciences are 'bonus subjects' in the VCE. If students achieve excellent results, it can make their ATAR more competitive.
以这些热门大学专业举例，皆需要学生在VCE科学Units3&4达到25分以上：
For example, these popular university programs all require students to achieve a score of 25 or above in VCE Science Units 3&4:
墨尔本大学 科学学士：如果没有同时选择中数和高数，则必修生物、化学或物理
莫纳什大学 工程学士：必修化学或物理
莫纳什大学 药学学士：必修化学
墨尔本大学 口腔科学学士：必修生物或化学
墨尔本大学 生物医药学士：必修化学
VCE化学是报考大学医科的必修科目，相信大家对此已经不陌生。同时，很多就读医药学院的学生也反馈，如果学了VCE生物，大一便会轻松许多。因此，“化学+生物”这个组合绝对是向往医疗健康领域就业的学生们的首选。
VCE Chemistry is a prerequisite subject for medical schools. Many medical students also reflect that the first year of study have been much easier becuase they had taken VCE Biology. Therefore, the combination of Chemistry + Biology is definitely a good choice for students who wish to pursue a career in the healthcare / biomedicine.

化学
Chemistry
1
选科理由
Why Chemistry?
化学通常被视为中心科学，它与物理、数学、生物学和医学联系在一起, 成为许多职业的必学科目，比如医学工作者、科学家等；
Chemistry is linked to physics, mathematics, biology and medicine, and is an essential subject for many careers, such as medical practitioners, scientists etc.
VCE 化学帮助学生探索事物的表象与本质；对化学复杂性和多样性的理解有助于学生将化学知识与其他科学知识相关联、建立思维导图;
VCE Chemistry helps students to explore the appearance and nature of things; an understanding of the complexity and diversity of chemistry helps students to relate their knowledge of chemistry to other sciences and to build a mindmap;
VCE化学是VCE考试中加分力度最大的科学学科，通常可以加3-4分。
VCE Chemistry is a scale-up subject.

学习难点
Difficulties
化学的学习设计涵盖了许多高难度的概念，被视为最难的 VCE 科目之一；同时，它也是要求最高的科目之一。
The Chemistry Study Design covers many difficult concepts, it is considered one of the most difficult VCE subjects; at the same time, it is one of the most demanding.
化学是一门很难掌握的学科，因为它既需要理解概念、又需要懂得如何演算。
Chemistry is a difficult subject to master because it requires both an understanding of concepts and an understanding of how to do the calculations.
新的重要概念学习起来非常耗时，因此学习方法和时间管理技巧在这门学科的学习中变得至关重要。
New key concepts can be very time-consuming to learn, so learning methods and time management skills are crucial in the study.
生物
Biology
1
选科理由
Why Biology?
生物学是对生物的研究，深入了解过去和现在的自然世界；如果你对这个领域兴趣浓厚，那么这可能是适合你学习的科目。
Biology is the study of living things and provides insight into the natural world, past and present; if you have a strong interest in this area then this could be the right subject for you to study.
在VCE 生物学学习的过程中，学生将学习如何将理论知识和实践应用相结合，这是他们在未来的与科学相关的学习和工作中所必备的良好基础和重要技能。
During the course of their VCE Biology studies, students will learn how to combine theoretical knowledge with practical application, which is a good foundation and important skill they will need for their future science-related studies and work.
VCE生物是VCE考试中的加分科目(0-1分)，如果你未来想在大学里学习与医药健康相关的专业，有VCE生物的基础将让你的大学学习变得相对轻松。
VCE Biology is a scale-up subject. If you want to study a science-related subject at university in the future, having a foundation in VCE Biology will make your university studies relatively easy.
有些学校允许学生跳过生物1&2的学习，在 11 年级直接学习生物3 & 4，为学生在这门学科节省了一年的学习时间。而生物1&2的某些关键知识的掌握会非常有利于学生学习生物3 & 4，在高考中取得好的成绩。
Some schools allow students to skip Biology Unit 1 & 2 and study Biology Unit 3 & 4 directly in Year 11, saving students a year of study in this subject. The mastery of certain key knowledge in Biology 1 & 2 will be very beneficial to students studying Biology 3 & 4 and achieving good results in VCE exams.

学习难点
Difficulties
大多数学生对 VCE 生物的学习存在一个误解，他们认为生物学起来很容易，只要死记硬背就可以了。事实上，生物学确实有很多科学术语和知识点需要记忆，而如何把这些术语和知识点融会贯通地运用到真正的考题中也同样重要。所以，如何记笔记，以及清楚了解需要记忆的知识点是什么，就成为学好VCE生物的关键所在。
Most students have a misconception that studying Biology for VCE is easy and that memorisation is all that is required. In fact, biology does have a lot of scientific terms and points to memorise, and it is equally important to know how to apply these terms and points in a coherent way to real exam questions. Therefore, taking notes and knowing exactly what you need to memorise is key to learning VCE Biology well.
物理
Physics
1
选科理由
Why Physics?
VCE物理可以使学生发展和扩展一系列科学探究技能，包括实践实验、研究、分析能力、解决问题的能力以及沟通技能。
Physics allows students to develop and extend a range of scientific inquiry skills, including practical experimentation, research, analytical skills, problem-solving, and communication skills. This prepares students for a variety of academic and professional fields.
学生将探讨塑造物理学的重要思想，如相对论和量子物理，并学习应用这些概念来解释和量化从原子到宏观尺度的现象。
Students explore significant ideas that have shaped physics, such as relativity and quantum physics, and learn to apply these concepts to explain and quantify phenomena on both subatomic and macroscopic scales.
物理是VCE考试中的加分科目(1-2分)，如果你未来想在大学里学习工程相关的专业，有VCE物理的基础将让你的大学学习变得相对轻松。
VCE Physics is a scale-up subject. If you want to study engineeringt at university in the future, having a foundation in VCE Physics will make your university studies relatively easy.

学习难点
Difficulties
VCE物理对学生的数学能力有一定的要求。学生需要扎实的数学基础才能成功掌握和应用物理概念，这对于数学薄弱的学生来说可能是一个挑战。
VCE Physics is heavily dependent on mathematical skills. Students need a strong foundation in mathematics to successfully grasp and apply physics concepts, which can be challenging for those who struggle with math.
VCE物理需要学生对复杂的理论，如量子物理和相对论，有充分理解和应用能力，需要高度的抽象思维和解决问题的能力。
Understanding and applying complex theories, such as quantum physics and relativity, can be difficult and require a high level of abstract thinking and problem-solving abilities.
