Analysis Framework

1. Core Content (Figure out "what it is")

1. Core Argument: Summarize the core argument of the article in one sentence
2. Key Concepts: What key concepts did the author use? How are these concepts defined?
3. Article Structure: How is the argument developed? How are each part connected?
4. Evidence Support: What specific cases, data or authoritative citations support the viewpoints?

2. Background Context (Understand "why")

2. Writing Background: Under what context was the article written? What phenomenon or debate is it responding to?
3. Writing Purpose: What problem does the author want to solve? Who do they want to influence?
4. Underlying Assumptions: What are the author's underlying assumptions? What unspoken premises are there?

3. Critical Review

1. Possible Rebuttals: What might be the main opposing opinions?
2. Argument Flaws: Are there any loopholes, leaps or biases in the argument?
3. Application Boundary: Under what circumstances do the viewpoints hold? Under what circumstances do they not hold?
4. Avoided Issues: Did the author deliberately avoid or play down any issues?

4. Value Extraction

1. Thinking Framework: What reusable thinking frameworks or methodologies did the author propose?
2. Inspiration 1: What can [target reader role 1 determined based on article content] learn?
3. Inspiration 2: What can [target reader role 2 determined based on article content] learn?
4. Cognitive Change: What cognition of readers may this article change?

5. Writing Skill Analysis (Optional, expand when requested by users)

1. Structure Design: How are the title, opening, and ending designed?
2. Persuasion Skills: What techniques did the author use to make the article persuasive?
3. Worth Learning: What are the worth learning points of the writing style?

• Polishing Mode: No fact-checking, only retrieve background information when necessary
• Outline Mode: Focus on structure and argument analysis

Online Retrieval Requirements

Retrieval Judgment Criteria

• The article cites specific data (statistical figures, research conclusions) and you doubt its accuracy
• The article quotes famous sayings, authoritative viewpoints, and the citation is crucial to the argument
• The article involves major controversial events, and it is necessary to understand the positions of all parties to make a fair analysis
• The author is a public figure, whose background and position will affect the understanding of the article
• You are unsure about a key fact and cannot provide a reliable analysis

• The article is purely opinion/commentary, and does not involve verifiable factual statements
• The cited data/events are well-known common sense
• The article is a fictional work or personal essay
• You are sufficiently confident about all key information

Retrieval Types

• Verify specific data, citations, events
• Mark when problems are found:

  [事实核查：原文称"XXX"，经查证实际为"YYY"]

• Author background, event context, positions of parties to the dispute

• Other expert opinions, latest developments, rebuttal arguments

Retrieval Principles

1. Necessity First: First judge whether retrieval is really needed to avoid meaningless searches
2. Retrieve When Unsure: When in doubt about key facts, it is better to retrieve than to guess
3. Do Not Fabricate: If no information is found, say "No relevant information found"
4. Mark Sources: Indicate the information source for the verification results

Execution Requirements

• Answer each question one by one, do not skip
• Answers should be specific and insightful, cited with the original text of the article as evidence
• Avoid general and vague language
• If information for a question is insufficient, clearly state "Insufficient information, the reason is..."
• The target reader role needs to be determined independently based on the content of the article
• Writing skill analysis is brief by default, and expanded in detail when requested by users
• Perform online verification when in doubt about key facts, do not fabricate or guess
• Evaluate before starting analysis: Does this article contain factual statements that need to be verified?
