1. The format of the Chinese composition for the College Entrance Examination, when quoting famous quotes, should the quotation marks be placed in the second or third space?

The quotation marks should be placed in the third space.

There should be two blank spaces at the beginning of the college entrance examination composition, which is the basic format.

The following are other requirements for related punctuation marks:

1. Writing format on square manuscript paper

1. In manuscripts written in horizontal lines, periods , question mark, exclamation mark, comma, period, semicolon and colon all occupy one word position and are placed in the lower right corner of the end of the sentence. These seven symbols usually cannot be placed at the beginning of a line because these symbols indicate a pause in tone and should follow immediately at the end of a sentence. If the last space of a line is occupied by text, then the punctuation point must be placed in the lower right corner of the text.

2. Quotes, brackets, and the first half and second half of the book title each occupy one word. The first half of them can be placed at the beginning of a line, but it does not appear in At the end of a line, the second half does not appear at the beginning of a line.

3. Both dashes and ellipses occupy the position of two characters. They can be placed at the beginning or end of a line, but they cannot divide a symbol into two paragraphs. Connection numbers and spacer numbers generally occupy the same word position. The positions of these four symbols are written in the middle of the line.

4. Emphasis and proper names are marked below the words. 2. When writing a composition, are the double quotation marks and commas in the same cell?

Yes

In addition, the correct writing of punctuation marks on the composition paper is as follows:

(1) In horizontally written manuscripts, periods, question marks, exclamation marks, commas, pauses, semicolons and colons all occupy one word position and are placed in the lower right corner of the end of the sentence. Among them, periods, commas, The five types of period marks, including period, semicolon, and colon, are placed in the lower left corner of the next quarter; the two types of period marks, the question mark and the exclamation mark, are placed in the left half of the next half. But these seven symbols usually cannot be placed at the beginning of a line, because these symbols indicate a pause in tone and should follow immediately at the end of a sentence. If the last space of a line is occupied by text, then the punctuation point must be placed in the lower right corner of the text.

(2) Quotation marks, brackets, and the first half and the last half of the book title each occupy one word. The first half of them can be placed at the beginning of a line, but does not appear at the end of a line. Half does not appear at the beginning of a line. The way to occupy a grid is to write the first half in the right half of one-half of a grid, and the second half in the left half of one-half of a grid.

(3) A dash and an ellipsis each occupy two character positions and can be placed at the beginning or end of a line, but a symbol cannot be divided into two paragraphs. The six points of the ellipsis should be written evenly in the two squares, relatively compact. The two endpoints of the dash cannot intersect with the sides of the two grids, so they are relatively compact. When there is exactly one space left when writing an ellipsis or dash, do not divide the symbol into half of the previous line and half of the next line. If possible, try to remove or add words to stagger them in the remaining space. Connection numbers and spacer numbers generally occupy the same word position. The positions of these four symbols are written in the middle of the line.

(4) Emphasis and proper names are marked below the words. 3. What is the format of sentences with quotation marks in Chinese?

① Quotes. For example: The motto "fullness leads to loss, modesty benefits" has been circulating for at least two thousand years.

②Specific title. For example: During the National Day Golden Week, travel to Guilin.

③Special meaning (including negation, sarcasm, emphasis). For example: It would be better to have fewer such “smart people”.

When there are quotation marks inside quotation marks, use double quotation marks on the outer layer and single quotation marks on the inner layer. For example: He stood up and asked: "Teacher, what does the word 'organized' in 'methodically' mean?"

When quoting directly and completely, a colon is usually used before the quotation marks, and the period is placed within the quotation marks; indirectly , when quoting incompletely, the period is placed outside the quotation marks or the period is not used. When a sentence uses a question mark or exclamation mark at the end of a quotation, whether it is a direct or indirect quotation, the question mark or exclamation mark should be placed within the quotation marks.

For example: "What are you afraid of! The beauty of the sea is right here!" I said. (Put the exclamation mark inside)

Zhang Jiazhen of the Tang Dynasty said that it was "strangely made, and people don't know what it is doing."

(Indirect references are placed outside)
