           using (SPSite oSite=new SPSite("http://mysharepoint"))
       {
           using (SPWeb oWeb=oSite.RootWeb)
           {
               SPList oList = oWeb.Lists["Test"];
               SPListItem oSPListItem = oList.Items.Add();
               oSPListItem["Title"] = "Hello SharePoint";
               oSPListItem.Update();
           }
   
       }

4. You dont need to create a Custom Class for Custom Content Type
