Patrick 考試經驗分享(test-taking tips)

有人提出先寫task2再寫task1.這種說法聽起來好像很新穎,其實是在回避考試的不

確定性,與先寫task1再寫task2的做法沒有本質的優(yōu)劣之分,那么到底應該如何決定寫作 順序呢

根據(jù)我參加雅思考試的經驗以及學生的反饋,在拿到考卷以后,不管一個人心理素質多好, 絕對沒有人只會看一道題就開始寫作.任何考生都一定會本能的現(xiàn)把兩道題都很快的看一遍 再開始寫其中的一道題.同學們很快地看完兩道題目以后,如果確實覺得task2地題目自己 準備地很充分,有信心在40分鐘左右寫出一篇自己滿意地議論文,那么就應該先寫task2, 因為task2占總分地60%.但是如果看完兩道題之后,你覺得task2地題目自己準備得不 充分或者一時想不出足夠得內容,那么我強烈建議大家先寫task1.這是因為task1的結尾 段往往需要從圖表中總結出深層的關系,這個task1結尾段深層關系對評分是很重要的.而 task2的結尾段,與一些老師所持的觀點相反,除了“discuss both views and give your own opinion”這一類題型之外,其他題型的結尾段只起概括上下文作用,在實際評分中并不是那 么重要.因為考官在評閱大家的task2結尾段時,一般都清楚多數(shù)同學寫這一段的時候時間 已經時第58分鐘甚至59分50秒了,所以考官知道task2的結尾段時無法準確反映一個考 生的寫作水平的,評分的時候互放松對結尾段的要求,而重點打擊開頭段和主體段.第二講 十大全真版本范文,詞匯與模板

一、Education 類

Some people think students should be allowed to evaluate their teachers' job

performance.Others believe that will lead to loss of respect and discipline.Discuss and give your own opinion.開頭段(不少于4句)

In this day and age, it is standard practice for business executive to fill out

performance-evaluation forms to give their assessment of their subordinates' work.But when it comes to the evaluation of school teachers' job performance by their students, people hold divergent views.Some argue that students should be allowed to do so.Others contend that disrespect and indiscipline will ensue if students evaluate their teachers work.Personally, I believe both these two views have some merit.主體段1(不少于5句)

Granted, there could be some possible drawbacks to students evaluating their teachers' work.First, if not well-managed, evaluation by the students may be completely worthless or even misleading.It is manifest that not all students would give their evaluation responsibly and some students may make mean comments.Secondly, some students criticize their teacher not because their teachers have a slack attitude about their job.Rather they do so because they dislike or even despise schooling.主體段2(不少于7句)

However, encouraging students to evaluate their teacher can bring about more boons.In the first place, it is an effective means of motivating the teachers to improve their lectures.Teachers have to keep adjusting their teaching to measure up to the expectations of the student.In the second place, regular input affords the teacher objective and balanced ideas about their own performance.Without such feedback, it is hard for the teacher to have accurate assessment of their own teaching.In the third place, a measure of

students' autonomy can make the student better prepared for their adult life.The student becomes better at decision-making and critical thinking.結尾段(不少于3句)

In the final analysis, I concede that enabling the student to evaluate their teachers'

performance might have some potential drawback.However, by averaging out student's appraisal and encourage them to evaluate responsibly can eliminate the downside of this practice.On balance, I am convinced that allowing students to evaluate their teachers is in the best interests of students, teachers, school administrators, and the society as a whole.Education類8分范文

Children who grow up in families without large amounts of money are better prepared to deal with problems in their adult life than children who are brought up by wealthy parents.Do you agree or disagree 題目點評:這道題目是IELTS writing task2當中比較少見的“看著容易寫好太難”的題目(很 多IELTS作文題目看起來很難,寫好卻不一定特別難).首先要注意到區(qū)別“families without large amounts of money” 和“poor families” 這兩個概念的差異,前者不僅僅指“l(fā)ow-income families” 還包括“middle-income families”, 所以題目的意思和一些同學概括的“窮人的孩子 早當家不同”;另外一個誤區(qū)在于因為這道題目和中國的文化比較貼近,很多同學會舉過多 的簡單生活事例但是忽略了推理,論證缺乏深度.從論點上看,考慮到多數(shù)考生更熟悉中國 的國情,肯定是totally agree 更好寫,布什的內閣里面現(xiàn)在也有拉洋板兒出生的(不過美 國的富豪的孩子當中牛人還是出了不少,四十三位總統(tǒng)里面也有大量的富家子弟,從整體上 看西方有錢的家長更舍得讓自己的孩子經歷風雨).既然觀點寫一邊倒,那么結果當然就是 五段式――開頭段轉述題目+主旨句,主體段1講一般家庭的孩子比富家孩子有更強的心 理承受能力,主體段2講一般家庭的孩子有更強的獨立性,主體段3講普通家庭的家長對 小孩的要求往往更嚴格,幾位段總結上三層意思.Thesis statement 和 topic sentences(范 文里用橫線標明)

關鍵詞:income gaps 指收入差距 income inequality 指收入不均 intergenerational 兩代 人之間的 turn the table 是個idiom, 有點像中文說的“打翻身仗” offspring 孩子

counterpart 相對應的人(或事務)meritocratic society 說白了就是“憑本事吃飯的社會” self-restraint 自制能力 infancy 嬰兒期 frugality 勤儉 financial strains 說白了就是缺錢, 名詞 well-off/affluent(adj)/ well-to-do/ well heeled/ wealthy 自己管理自己,名詞 initiative 主動性 well-acquainted 對某事很熟悉,mitigate緩解,要說解決問題,雅思里面詞匯也特 多 tackle/ address/ solve resolve grapple with /combat 再加題目里面的 deal with,大家挑 著用啦

It is widely accepted that we have been living in a “the rich get richer whereas the poor get poorer” age in terms of income gaps within a generation.However, to this day, there has been no consensus yet over the extent to which income inequality is intergenerational.Some contend that the offspring of low-income and middle-income parents can largely grow up manifest better problem-solving abilities during adulthood than their high-income family counterparts thereby turning the table socially and financially.Personally, I believe this is generally the case in any meritocratic society.(Thesis statement)

First and foremost, children raised in household not in possession of a good fortune are conditioned early on in their lives to exercise self-control and self-restraint.These

individuals learn from their infancy onward that not everything they crave will become theirs instantaneously.Every so often their wishes go beyond their parents' means and they have to come to terms with the resulting sense of frustration or rejection.Throughout the childhood and early adulthood years they are tempered by the repeated experiences of parents' denial of their requests and frugality is inculcated into their minds as a virtue.Consequently these children, for the most part, are apt to interpret scrimping and saving, emotional uneasiness, not infrequent financial strains and menial first jobs as an integral part of life rather than a devastating ordeal.Hence they end up being better able to

manage stress in their adult years and less likely to panic or get daunted when problems occur.Further, children brought up by parents of low or middle economic status often grow up to be physically, mentally and professionally more independent than children brought up by affluent parents.It goes without saying that children whose parents are not particularly well-off are more likely than children of affluent households to know how to get the most out of a modest allowance, if they ever get such a thing at all.To the former group of

children most desirable things in life have to be “earned”—that is, more often than not they must put forth great effort before their desire is fulfilled.On the other hand, busy, low or medium salaried parents translate into more autonomy and initiative on the children's part.This originally disadvantaged group becomes spontaneous and handy through crafting toy on their own, resourceful by cooking their own meals, tactful with coaxing their parents into buying them gifts, intelligent thanks to the absence of private tutors, savvy in doing summer jobs, and above all, unrelenting in pursuing their dreams.Lastly, non-wealthy parents typically have higher and more definite aspiration for their children than well-to-do parents.Well-acquainted with all the disadvantages a meager or fair-to-middling bank account generates, many non-wealthy parents pin their hopes on their children to get their

families upwardly mobile.These adults mostly have high behavioral, educational and(subsequently)occupational expectations for their children.As a result, they cannot afford to be permissive parents.Spoiling their offspring rotten is the last thing they care to do and they are always ready to discipline their children when they misbehave.They keep tabs on their children's grades at school and do not spare the rod when their offspring do not measure up academically.The odds of children raised in such rigorous environments having good problem-solving skills are apparently better than children raised otherwise.To conclude, the chief determinant of individuals' problem-solving skills is not the amount of money their parents can amass when they are little.Rather, hands-on experience in comprehending, analyzing, resolving, mitigating or circumventing problems is more

essential to the cultivation of problem-solving abilities.Hence, I am convinced that families without great wealth are more advantageous to the development of individual capacity to tackle problems.Education 類詞匯

最后用最近寫的一篇短文作為教育類話題的結束,短文基本概括了我在這個階段對于好的教 育標準的理解.There is no unanimous consensus yet on what constitutes a sound teaching methodology.However, in the new millennium, it is arguable that fine schooling, be it primary-level, secondary-level or tertiary-level, has four common characteristics:(1)Advantageous education encourages the student to think independently and critically, and empowers the student to evaluate the teacher's performance openly, as opposed to force-feeds students and renders them capable only of spitting back predigested ideas;(2)genuinely beneficial educational institutions aim to produce graduates with integrity.They not only inculcate knowledge, they instill moral values an principle as well;(3)Education should recognize the correlation and interaction between varied disciplines and adopts a multi-disciplinary curriculum;(4)In a healthy and stimulating educational environment, the imparting of theoretical knowledge is invariably synthesized with the cultivation of practical，employable skills;(5)Schools should not be segregated on any grounds, racial, gender or intellectual.二、Technology & media 類

科技類2/26 people today can perform the everyday tasks such as shopping, banking or even business transactions, without meeting others face-to-face.What effects will this phenomenon have on individuals and society as a whole

開頭段(不少于3+1句)The interactivity of the Internet and the mobile phone has enabled a multitude of people to purchase their desired items or pay their phone bills without stepping out of their offices or homes.And many others can even register for tests or sign contracts online.This sweeping trend of going about everyday business in the virtual world has triggered a marked decline in face-to-face contact between people.Thus, it is essential that we identify the implication of this trend on both individuals and society as a whole.英文里表達”從事“一件事情 go about/ conduct/ perform 表示影響可以替換的單詞: Implication /repercussions, impact, influence

主體段1(不少于1+6句)The impact of this phenomenon on individuals is profound.First, Individual efficiency in business transaction and banking will be greatly enhanced.And those who dread shopping are spared the chore of browsing around in shops.Secondly, the increasingly sedentary lifestyle will engender a higher incidence of ailment.More overweight people means more patients suffering from cardiovascular diseases such as vein hardening, diabetes and hypertension.Thirdly, the absence of face-to-face contact may induce distrust between business partners.An inherent sense of disbelief is apt to ruin a telecommunicated negotiation when negotiators can only see videos of each other transmitted via the Internet.表示”提高,增進“, enhance boost 要表達”產生“的意思,后面是好的結果,用bring about 后 面是不好的結果用engender 后面是抽象名詞比如心理活動,用 induce 破壞undermine, jeopardize, endanger, ruin, wreck ,havoc on, spoil, devastate

主體段2(不少于1+6句)This trend also has widespread repercussions on society as a whole.In the first place, the burgeoning e-commerce will, doubtless, boost corporate efficiency immeasurably.And higher efficiency means more earnings and less costs for businesses.In the second place, online fraud, be it banking or trading, retail or wholesale, is sure to abound in the cyberspace.We must search for practicable and effectual means of curbing it.In the third place, the proliferation of e-commerce may exacerbate man's overdependence on technology.And that can render our lives unspontaneous and our tempo of life too fast and furious.讓…進一步惡化 aggravate exacerbate worsen

結尾段(不少于2句)In sum, there is no denying that the virtual world is exerting influence on our lives in various ways.It is a key that we take advantage of the upside of this trend and in the meantime mitigate its downside as much as possible.消極的影響 baneful influence/ pernicious influence 積極的影響 beneficial influence/ advantageous influence 深遠的影響 profound influence

Many people work at home using modern technology today.Some people think only workers benefit from it, not the employers.To what extend do you agree or disagree 折衷式,四段式,大負小正

Progressions in telecommunications technology have enabled the practice of

telecommuting.Which means worker can conduct their assigned tasks without have to commute back and forth to work regularly.This emerging working pattern has profound implication on our work and life.Some assert that only workers, not the employers, can be beneficiaries of telecommuting.Personally, I think their view has both merit and demerit.Granted, telecommuting can bring about numerous benefits to the employees.To begin with, employees do not have to live with the constant fear that their boss may look over their shoulder, as their work is supervised from far away and in more laissez faire fashions.There is no need for them to get super well-groomed and they can ”slack off“ a bit when the work-induced stress is too intense to bear.Furthermore, telecommuting can spare workers the everyday chore of traveling back and forth to work.And this, in turn, helps them to cut down on costs of bus fare, fuel or extravagant work clothes.Yet on the other hand, it would be erroneous if we fail to acknowledge that employers can profit from telecommuting, too.In the first place, less constraint, less peer pressure at work, no office politics and more flexible schedules can boost employee morale and enhance productivity.Empirical evidence abounds in this respect that more occupational freedom can, more often than not, lead to stronger vocational motivation and more innovative ideas.In the second place, telecommuting is an economical option for the employer.A telecommuting work force can help business-owners substantially curtail the overhead costs, such as the costs of rent and utilities.Thirdly, the fact that workers can telecommute via the worldwide communications network allows employer to recruit

people from remote locations or even half way around the globe.This markedly augments the labor pool of businesses.To conclude, I concede that telecommuting can bring about a variety of boons to employees.However, it would be unjustifiable if we overlooked the advantages

telecommuting can spawn on the employers' side.On balance, I am convinced that we should strive to seek out the most effective approach to exploit this win-win situation.8分范文媒體類

媒體類 We can get knowledge from news.But some people think we should not trust the journalists.What do you think are the important qualities that a journalist should have 題目要求分析現(xiàn)象的一個方面, 寫成5段式

開頭段3+1: paraphrase the topic + thesis statement(轉述題目+主旨句)轉述題目(不少于3句)

In the information era, news plays a crucial role in our work, leisure as well as family life.It informs us about the current world affairs and affords us knowledge, entertainment and conversation pieces.On the other hand, the credibility of news and journalists is a highly controversial issue.Hence, it is essential that we determine the most important qualities of a trustworthy journalist.主體段第一段 1+3: topic sentence+3 supporting sentence(主題句+3句論證)

(主題句)First and foremost, a trustworthy journalist must be an individual with honesty and integrity.(論證主題句3句)In this day and age, there are a host of temptations to lure the reporter into fabricating stories, when confronted with such temptations, only professionals with high moral values can adhere to their code of ethics.Hence, the

courage to always pursue and expose the truths about newsworthy events is really crucial to a journalist.主體段第二段 1+3 topic sentence+3 supporting sentence(主題句+3句論證)

(主題句)Secondly, determination and tenacity distinguish fine journalists from mediocre ones.(論證主題句3句)In today's world, regarded as the conscience of society, a great many journalists find it increasingly difficult for them to come up with factual news stories.It is not unusual that a journalist receives severe warnings or even death threats from gang members or business tycoons when they set out to trace crimes and business scandals.Hence, it takes immense determination and perseverance to be a genuinely dependable journalist.主體段第三段 1+3 :topic sentence+3 supporting sentence(主題句+3句論證)

(主題句)Lastly, a trustworthy journalist must be able to present keen observations on the covered events.(論證主題句3句)To produce truly instructive coverage, a reporter must possess the capacity to analyze and synthesize the information he/she gathers.This requires penetrating insights and outstanding analytical skills.Only when an individual meets such requirements can he/she create in-depth coverage of events.結尾段2句

媒體類 Some people contend that advertising only has positive impact on society.To what extend do you agree or disagree with their views 折衷式寫法,四段式

開頭段,(不少于4句)

Advertising has become one of the most pervasive industries in present-day society.Today, vast billboards have turned into an indispensable part of our cityscape.Moreover, the proliferation of TV commercial, website ad banner and flyer also exerts profound

influence on our lives.Some argue that advertising has only beneficial impact on our lives.Personally, I think their view has both merit and demerit.主體段1(小的方面,不少于5句)

Granted, advertising may carry some drawbacks.First and foremost, email spamming could fill up your email box in no time.And many of the junk emails would get your PC infected with viruses, worm or Trojan horses.Furthermore, today a considerable

proportion of advertisements may be fabricated.They convey misleading information that defrauds people of their money.表示利與弊的英文:Advantages and disadvantages / strengths and weaknesses/ the upside and downside/ pros and cons/ boons and banes.主體段2(大的方面,不少于7句)

However, the boons advertising can bring about to our lives far outweigh its

disadvantages.In the first place, advertisements get us well-informed about the latest products.They help us narrow down the choice on our shopping lists and make shopping more cost-effective and less time-consuming.In the second place, elaborate

advertisements can be a true art form.There can be no denying that genuinely creative ads can brighter up our lives immensely.Last but not least, non-profit advertising in the print as well as the electronic media can motivate people to contribute to our society.With the help of such ads, charities and environmental conservationists can raise enough funding for the poor and environmental preservation.結尾段(不少于三句)

In the final analysis, I concede that advertising does not come without some banes.However, the pro of advertising far outweigh its cons.On balance, I am convinced that we should do is to get this industry better-regulated and ensure that this industry can afford us even more blessing in years to come.Technology & media 詞匯

三、Tourism 類 范文 International tourism has become the biggest industry in the world.Some people think it cause tension between people from different culture.Others thing it leads to understanding between countries.To what extend do you agree or disagree

International tourism has been consolidating its status as the foremost export industry in the world.A recent study conducted by the World Tourism Organization(WTO)reveal that international tourism accounted for approximately 11 percent of the world export of goods and services.Yet when it comes to whether this burgeoning industry is a blessing or a curse in terms of international relations, people hold divergent views.Some people argue that it promotes understanding between countries while others contend that it only breed discord.Personally, I think both their views have merit.Granted, international tourism makes for communication between the tourists and local communities.In the first place, it affords tourists opportunities to experience a foreign culture firsthand.Touring another country is a multi-sensory experience(tourists can see, hear, touch or even smell the exotic things at the destination spots)and it is much more interactive than just peering through a TV or PC screen at another culture.In the second place, the empirical knowledge gained during an overseas journey can help eliminate many of the stereotype tourists have been believing in about the host country.For

instance, a brief sojourn in Saudi Arabia can surely bring a Christian into the realization that not all Muslims are terrorists.On the contrary, most of them are nurturing parents and loving siblings who have strong religious convictions distinct from Christianity.In the third place, international tourism substantially boosts the economy of the recipient country.It generates employment opportunities in retail, hospitality and transportation sectors and augments the tax revenue of the local government.These economic boons can enhance the vitality of the local communities and help build trust between nations.Nonetheless, international tourism may also create tension between the tourists and

residents in tour destination.To begin with the influx of tourists may be an intrusion upon the lives of many local inhabitants.Tourism is a manifestation of the human desire for variety and for exploration.The majority of international tourists on guided tours value the local for mere photo opportunities and think of everything they see, such as indigenous costumes and accessories worn by the natives, in terms of souvenir potential.Moreover, tourists' sense of superiority, in extreme instances, engenders tourist vandalism and even sexual exploitation, which are utterly disruptive to the local community.Then, the co modification of indigenous heritage makes everything seem fake to the international tourists.Here in Asia it is not unusual that scared rituals are deprived of their spiritual dimensions and the aggressive local vendors leave the tourists apprehensive.Next, international backpackers can be very vulnerable to fraud, mugging or even terrorist attacks due to their unfamiliarity with the destination spots.Lastly, colossal touring populations between countries may severely undermine biodiversity and ecological equilibrium.It is manifest that the trail of non-biodegradable litter international tourists leave behind them and the colossal amounts of fossil fuel consumed in transportation constitute grave environmental hazards to tourist destinations and beyond.In the final analysis, I concede that international tourism produces opportunities for different nations to communicate and understand their common humanity.However, it may also result in conflict between countries.On balance, I am convinced that we should encourage mutual sympathy and respect between the tourists and the local denizens and in the meantime promote more culturally-sensitive sustainable tourism.Tourism類詞匯

四、Government 類

范文

政府類 Some people think scientific research should be carried out and controlled by the government instead of private companies.To what extent do you agree or disagree The advancement of modern sciences has spawned a host of boons in our lives.It is no exaggeration that human life has been fundamentally revolutionized by the physical, chemical, biological, environmental or astronomical discoveries and creations over the past few decades.Yet when it comes to who should play the central role in conducting scientific research, people hold divergent views.Some contend that it is the government, rather than the private firms, who should carry out and regulate scientific research.Personally, I think their view has both merit and demerit.Grandly, the government has a crucial role to play in scientific research.First, corporations are, entities in constant pursuit of maximum profit at the lowest possible cost.As a

consequence, corporate scientific research, if left unfettered, often compromise ethics for the sake of shareholder wealth.Only the government has the regulatory and enforcement power to ensure that scientific research does not sacrifice public interests for private gains.Secondly, government coordination can help optimize the economic resources allocated to scientific research.Contemporary scientific research often requires colossal amounts of money and substantial researching manpower.Government supervision makes for effective collaboration and healthy competition between companies, warns the privates firms about the potential perils of ill-conceived projects and set priorities—in terms of societal interests.Nonetheless, it is manifest that corporate scientific research also holds many inherent advantages.To begin with, given the profit-pursuing nature of business, corporate

research typically has well-defined guidelines and objectives for every mission.Unlike government projects that have to weigh and balance competing interests, company research is almost always focused, well-scheduled, well-budgeted, and result-oriented.Secondly, due to the profitability of company research, corporate professionals performing scientific research mostly find themselves better rewarded financially than researchers working for government projects.And this fact, in turn, renders these professionals more motivated in their laboratories.Lastly, private firms are more meritocratic and less likely to be plagued with the bureaucracy characterizing many government agencies.Therefore, corporate research is often more efficient and more productive than its governmental counterpart.In the final analysis, I concede that government direction can crown scientific research with an ethical compass.Nevertheless, corporate companies hold definite advantages over the government in scientific research with respect to efficiency and productivity.On balance, I am convinced that it should be the private firms who perform scientific research whereas government scrutiny can ensure that these companies are aware of the ethical stakes involved and do not lose sight of the public interests while pursuing their goals.Government 類詞匯

Some people think animal experimentation should be stopped because it is cruel.Others think it is necessary for the development of science.Discuss both view and give your own opinion.Animals were friend of foes of humanity at different times of the human history.In modern times, experiments upon animals have long been a breeding ground for spirited debate.Some animal right activists argue that we should ban animal experiments altogether because putting animals through experimentation is unjustifiable on moral grounds.Yet some other people contend that the advancement of science necessitates animal testing.Personally, I believe both their views have merit and demerit.Granted, empirical evidence suggests that many animal experiments are performed

callously without any attention to the discomfort or pain that laboratory mammals endure.First and foremost, improper confinement of test animals such as locking them up in cramped cages is inhumane.It can gravely disrupt natural biological functions of the test animal.Further, the effects of vaccination and vivisection conducted on live mammals can be chilling.They may, in some case, even constitute sheer torture of live animals.However, from a more pragmatic perspective, evidence bounds that animal subjects are still an indispensable part at this point.In the first place, it is manifest that drug

experimentation on live mammals is far more effective than experimentation on bacteria or on other lower species in testing drug safety.Drugs that have severe potential side effects on Homo sapiens must be tested by pharmaceutical companies on live mammals first to ascertain their toxicity.In the second place, in space research, live animals are still the only practical alternative to humans in testing living creature reaction to outer-space experience on a flight not considered to be sufficiently safe for human astronauts.Lastly, lab research about the behavioral tendencies of chimpanzees, gorillas and other members of the primate group is also necessary.It produces outcomes consistently advancing anthropological and genetic studies.To conclude, I concede that experiments upon animals may induce suffering to the test animals.However, I am convinced that there are no feasible alternatives to this

methodology at the current stage of scientific development.On balance, I think that we should allow animals testing to be continued but at the same time we use techniques such as anesthetic to minimize the pain of the test animal.Animals 類詞匯

六、Language & culture 類

范文

語言類 some people think the advantages of the spread of English in the world outweigh its disadvantages.To what extent do you agree or disagree

In the contemporary world, the English language is prevalent in the international political, economic and cultural scenes.Apart from that, it has consolidated its status as the most-studied instrument of communication in hundreds of thousands of educational

institutions.The dominance of English has been a breeding ground for spirited debate not just within the linguistic academic, but also in the press as well as the general public.As I see it, the boons brought about by the spread of English far outweigh the banes.Granted, the proliferation of English does not come without drawbacks.First, it renders a host of indigenous languages obsolete.According to a study conducted by UNESCO，over 200 ethnic languages went extinct in 2004, primarily due to the linguistic assimilation of ethnic minorities into the English language.These languages had crystallized and conveyed unique indigenous traditions, rites, rituals and mores and their extinction

constituted an anthropological disaster.Secondly, the encroachments of English erode the cultural identity of other races.The prevalence of English has a chilling effect on the purity of other languages and it can aggravate the sense of cultural inferiority among the non-native speakers of English.However, the proliferation of English can generate even more benefits.To begin with, English as a global lingual Franca facilitates cross-cultural communication.Today, eight in every ten international conferences designate English as their chief working language;and ninety-eight percent leading scientific journals in the world are published in English or have an English version.Further, the extensive use of a common language has a unifying effect on people who do not speak the same mother tongue.Language barriers naturally engender a measure of distrust or alienation while a shared language makes for a sense of belonging and sympathy.Lastly, the expansion of English also enables people whose native tongue is not English to appreciate the English-speaking cultures more efficiently and more fully.It is manifest that many English-speaking cultures are among the richest and most dynamic cultures in the world.English learners have surely found themselves in an advantageous position in terms of life-enrichment as they can the English literature in the original language, can comprehend Hollywood blockbusters without having to read the minute subtitles and do not rely exclusively upon body language while touring English-speaking destinations anymore.In sum, I concede that the linguistic dominance of English has created some adverse effects on the world cultures.Nonetheless, its spread has produced even more blessings to our lives.On balance, I am convinced that we should sustain the extensive use of English as global language while at the same time do our utmost to honor and preserve other distinct languages and culture.Language & culture 類8分范文

Cultural diversity 文化多元化 national unity and cohesion 國家的凝聚力

disintegration(noun)瓦解 be culturally assimilated into(移民)成為其目的國文化的有機部 分 Successive immigration waves in preceding centuries have rendered numerous countries multi-racial.Over the process, the issue of massive acculturation had been cast into sharp relief.Hence the intense controversy over immigrants' attitudes is toward the recipient culture.Some contend that immigrants should not just cloister themselves in separate minority, but accept the culture of their host countries as their own.Personally, I think this view has both merit and demerit.On the one hand, it is manifest that adjusting themselves to the local culture and mores is vital to the survival, self-sufficiency and success of the internationally-relocated.Fist and foremost, ready availability of the very kinds of food, shelter, clothing and transportation that they were once so used to in their home countries is largely non-existent in their

immigration destinations.Their dietary, dressing, dwelling and transportational preference must be substantially altered to fit into new material environments.Secondly, it is highly improbable that a new immigrant's academic excellence or occupational prowess can get recognized fully if his/her conduct and values are deemed ”foreign“ by his/her teachers, classmates, or supervisors and colleagues.Behavioral, linguistic and conceptual

adaptation to the mainstream culture of the host country ensures that he/she can grow

and prosper academically or professionally.In addition, immigrants' acculturation is key to the national unity and cohesion of their host countries.History has proven repeatedly that multi-racial countries consisting of ethno-centric groups clinging indiscriminately and insensibly to their own values and convictions could rarely avert the fate of disintegration.Yet on the other hand, there can exist disadvantages or perils if immigrants desert their own cultural identities altogether.In the first place, they would suffer severe identity crises if they abandon their own cultural characteristics, which help them validate and re-affirm themselves.And the dreadful sense of rootlessness, insecurity and disorientation, in turn, produces frustration about the transculturation process, depression or the undesired

eventual return to one's home country.In the second place, the voluntary abandonment of their native cultures erodes their affinity for their countries of origin.When attachment to the culture of their home countries is gone, their motherland would be little more than just a geographical proper name to them.Lastly, multi-ethnicity can serve to enrich a nation's culture immensely and total rejection of immigrants' native cultures only undermines the inherent cultural diversity of multi-ethnic nations.Consider the quintessential immigration country—the US, which is often dubbed”tossed salad“ for its marvelous cultural heterogeneity.What if Jewish Americans ceased to commemorate Hanukkah, Italian American restaurateurs removed pastas from their menus and Irish Americans were indifferent to the observance of Saint Patrick's Day

To conclude, I concede that it is in the best interests of the immigrants to get culturally assimilated into their host country.However, it would be a shame if they just turn their backs on their ancestral cultures.Thus, on balance, immigrants ought to make every effort to acclimatize themselves to their host culture;but nevertheless, they should also love, honor and cherish their own cultural backgrounds, which in large characterize themselves.Language & Culture 必備詞匯

范文

發(fā)展類(建筑物)Many old buildings are protected by law because they are part of a nation 's history.However, some people think they should be destroyed to make way for new ones because people need houses and offices.To what extent do you agree or disagree

In this day and age, historic buildings still abound in many metropolises where new office complexes and residential developments proliferate.Whereas nearly everyone agrees in principle that historic buildings carry cultural, educational or artistic value, when it comes to the competing interests of preserving historic buildings and constructing new ones, people hold divergent views.Some assert that old buildings should be torn down to create ample room for new constructions.Personally, I think their view has both merit and demerit.Granted, the development of modern cities, both in population size and in functionality, necessitates the removal of certain existing structures whose history can often be traced back to centuries ago.In the first place, new constructions must be proposed and carried out to accommodate the markedly-increasing urban population.Given that almost all the present-day cities are already packed with places of residence, commerce and recreation and the land available for new housing developments is increasingly scarce, some historic buildings must be demolished to make room for more compact, high-rise constructions.Secondly, the fast-paced automated and digitized modern city life has rendered some unremarkable old buildings redundant.Even if we renovated or remodeled these old structures to meet the requirements of contemporary urban life that is best characterized by its dynamism and convenience, the utility of retrofitted old building s would still pale compared to that of the modern buildings tailored-made for modern functions.Nevertheless, there are other considerations that should be given precedence over the utilitarian value of historic buildings.First and foremost, some historic buildings uniquely represent specific historical events or figure.If such structures were all razed, accurate representation of the corresponding events and figures would be out of the question.Further, some historic buildings possess exceptional esthetic value and mere replication or documentation can by no means demonstrate the superior craftsmanship in them as

vividly.Additionally, many historic vernacular dwellings embody the distinctive lifestyle of ethnic minority groups.It would be an ethnological catastrophe if all these dwellings were knocked down for the sake of current urban needs.In the final analysis, I concede that the demolition of some historic buildings is inevitable in the process of urban development.However, it would be erroneous and imprudent if we fail to acknowledge that some old buildings are too significant historically, esthetically or ethnologically to dismantle.On balance, I am convinced that urban advancement and the preservation of significant historic buildings are not necessarily mutually exclusive and urban developers must not indiscriminately meet modern needs at the expense of the historic buildings that have notable historical, esthetic or ethnological value.發(fā)展類8分范文

發(fā)展類(城鄉(xiāng)差距)In many countries, good schools and medical facilities are available only in cities.Some people think new teachers and doctors should work in rural areas for a few years.But some others think everyone should be free to choose where they work.Discuss and give your own opinion.開頭段至少寫3+1

In this day and age, it can be generally observed that the disparity between cities and the country has been aggravated by relentless urbanization.With respect to educational and medical facilities, a yawning gap has emerged between those in cities and rural ones.This manifest chasm has prompted some to suggest that teachers and doctors fresh out of university work in the country for a few years.Yet many are opposed to this view on the grounds that it infringes upon individual freedom to choose where they work.Personally, I think both these two views have merit and demerit.主體段第一段1+4

Granted, assigning new teachers and doctors to the countryside may create certain

benefits.To begin with, this practice can help foster a strong sense of obligation in many teachers and doctors.They can experience first-hand how the rural residents are held

back by the out-molded teaching and medical facilities and this, in turn, can inspire a host of professionals to commit themselves to the alleviation of this disturbing situation.Moreover, the inferior living and working conditions in the country can temper many of these young professionals' soul.They are very likely to be more tenacious and

determined and hence more successful than their urban counterparts in later careers.主體段第二段1+6

However, there are even more drawbacks that this practice can engender.In the first

place, many young teachers and doctors will fell unmotivated or frustrated if they are sent to rural areas against their own will.They may have a hard time getting accustomed to the shabby housing and primitive facilities and slack off at work.In the second place, if new teachers and doctors are coerced to work in the countryside, a considerable proportion of them may find it daunting when it comes time for them to relocate to cities after a few years in the country.They will feel intense occupational stress when they cannot operate efficiently equipment much more advanced than the devices they are used to back in the country school or hospital.Last but not least, given the inferiority of new teachers and doctors will lead to unsatisfactory job performance in rural school and clinics.We really cannot expect fresh recruits to work wonders with outdated tools.結尾段

In the final analysis, I concede that sending teachers and doctors fresh out of college to the countryside may produce specific advantages.However, if we enforce this

indiscriminately, that will surely generate even more banes.On balance, I am convinced that we should optimize our workforce and honor the individual freedom in determining where they work.發(fā)展類(交通問題)Some people think stricter punishment for driving offenders is the only effective way to improve safety on the roads.To what extent do you agree or disagree 轉述題目,至少寫3句

With the car ownership soaring in China, the issue of traffic accidents has been thrown into sharp relief.According to recent research conducted by China's ministry of

transportation, the annual incidence of traffic accidents is nearly three times as high as the corresponding figure a decade ago.Many people have been alarmed by this trend and assert that imposing stiffer punishment on the perpetrators is the only way to curb this disturbing phenomenon.Personally, I believe their view has both merit and demerit.其中主旨句模板詞匯可以替換成:Personally, from my own perspective, in my view, as I see it, as far as I am concerned, speaking for myself

culprits.;thus, pedestrian offenses such as jaywalking must be effectively checked as will.(二級分論點2)Secondly, if people who are regularly behind the wheel are not awakened to the horrific consequences traffic offenses may breed, they will take advantage of every loophole in sight.(論證二級分論點2)If people who are regularly abide by the traffic law solely out of fear for punishment, when a surveillance camera is out order or the traffic police fail to keep tabs on a specific section of a freeway, all hell will break loose.(二級分論 點3)Lastly, strict punishment of disorderly conduct does not guarantee infallible detection of driving offenses.(論證二級分論點3)Without sophisticated traffic-offense detectors and a capable traffic police force, traffic laws, no matter how draconian, would be lax enough for hardened reckless drivers to disregard.結尾段,3句

In the final analysis, I concede that harsh penalty on driving offenders constitutes an

effective way to deter irresponsible driving behavior.However, the rampant driving offense cannot be curbed by stiffer punishment of driving offenders along.On balance, I am convinced that we must take a more integrated approach to this modern-day scourge.發(fā)展類常用詞匯 Development

It is clear that the differences between various countries are becoming less

evident.In this day and age, all over the world, people can see the same movies，fashions, brands and TV programs.To what extent do you think the advantages of this phenomenon outweigh its disadvantages

In this day and age, like a host of other developing countries, China is increasingly westernized and numerous Chinese cities are increasingly cosmopolitan.The breaking down of trade barriers has generated a plethora of foreign entertainment productions on the market.The sweeping trend of cultural homogenization, or more precisely, cultural westernization, has disturbed and alarmed many.Personally, I also believe that the disadvantages of cultural globalization far outweigh its advantages.Granted, global cultural homogeneity has immensely enriched the lives of the denizens in developing countries.Now Hollywood blockbusters typically get their first screening in China within a couple of days after their American premiere and youths in China can

download singles topping billboard charts from Internet without having to scout around in a CD store.Enhanced TV connectivity affords Chinese viewer chances to see primetime American TV shows.This ease of access to a multitude of foreign amusements has really brightened up the lives of many.However, the global cultural sameness can engender far more banes.In the first place, it severely undermines the cultural diversity in the world.Nowhere is the decline of cultural diversity more manifest than with the youngsters.Today, in Chinese metropolises, it is a common sight that twenty-something stroll down the billboard-lined sidewalks, sporting Nike sweatshirts and Adidas sneakers, with Motorola cell phones toted in their hands and Apple's iPod clipped on their belts.And it is equally commonplace that adolescents, whose hair is dyed yellow or purple, don their baggy outfits and bust moves to hip-pop music.All these seem just so pretentious for a culture that valued modesty, humility and moderation for over three thousand years.In the second place, indiscriminate embracing of the American popular culture diminishes the sense of pride and dignity of

developing-country peoples.Traditions, rites, rituals, mores and the language of culture are all unifying forces of a nation and the decline of them erodes the national identity and national pride of a country.Lastly, cultural westernization breeds massive unemployment in entertainment, publishing, and design industries of developing countries.The

inundation by foreign products drives local businesses out of the market and renders vast numbers of professionals jobless.To sum up, the on-going cultural globalization is far more detrimental than it is beneficial.It is , in essence, the process of the Western culture(primarily the American culture)

dominating, eroding and replacing the indigenous cultures in other geographical regions.Unless people in developing countries make a conscious effort to preserve and uphold their cultural identity, their fascinating cultural heritage will be jeopardized permanently.Globalization 類常用詞匯

industrial consumption has been shooting up since the end of World War II.(二級分論點)Secondly, the deterioration of the Earth's ecosystem also contributes to this disturbing situation.The rampant practice of deforestation has engendered massive soil erosion and multitude of chemical works, sewage disposal and textile factories discharge their toxic waste into streams, rivers or lakes.(二級分論點)Thirdly, the overexploitation water resources also plays a pivotal role in water scarcity.Awareness of the significance of

water conservation is weak or non-existent on household, community and national levels.主體段2(不少于7句)Given the severity of the water crisis, we have no alternative but to take vigorous measures to address the situation.To begin with, controlling the drastic

increase of world population is paramount importance.It is imperative that other populous nations learned from China's success in curbing its population surge over the past two decades and introduce more effective birth control methods.Further, the concept of

sustainable development ought to be spread in the international community.Any form of over tapping natural resources must be strictly prohibited.Lastly, mankind must strive to find alternative source of fresh water.For instance, both glacial melt water and desalinated salt water hold huge potential as vast sources of water.結尾段(不少于2句)To summarize, causes of the shortage of fresh water are multiple.Birth-control measures, promotion of sustainable development and research about alternative water resources are all effective ways to alleviate this modern-day scourge.環(huán)境類8分范文

With the crime rate hovering at high level, the print media as well as the electronic media dedicate large proportions of their space or airtime to detailed crime coverage.Whether the media should present detailed accounts of crimes has triggered spirited debate.Many assert that the news media should stop giving details of crimes.Speaking for myself, I totally agree with their views.表示同意可以替換成 approve of /wholeheartedly support/ cannot agree with their view more/ consent to/ am for

In the first place, given the mercenary motives behind most detailed crime coverage, it is imperative that we discourage such coverage.The principal purpose of reporter covering criminal acts is to boost newspaper circulations or television ratings;much detailed crime coverage is biased or exaggerated.It only serves to leave a multitude of citizens constantly fearful about crime.主體段2(不少于4句)

In the second place, detailed reports of crimes by the press afford the potential criminals very useful learning materials.Reporting crimes in graphic detail helps those who are in the process of plan some criminal act to perfect their plans.Drawing on the

well-documented crime stories in the media, would-be criminals learn how to avoid the mistakes in their crime.And this may aggravate the already soaring crime rate.主體段3(不少于4句)

In the third place, detailed reports of heinous crimes may traumatize the victims of the reported crimes.The reporters rarely consult the victims before they describe details of horrific crimes to the public.Hence, such reports become nothing more than an attempt to satisfy the curiosity of some base minds.Without the victims' consent, graphic accounts of crimes may become nightmares to them.結尾段(不少于2句)

In sum, detailed crime coverage in the media undermines our lives in several ways.I am convinced if such reports continue to go uncontrolled, it will exert even more baneful influence on individuals, communities and societies.Crime 類常用詞匯

The line graph illustrates how the number of people using a London underground station fluctuates over the course of 16 hours(6am to 10pm).As we can see from the graph, at 6am the number of people at the station stands at only 100.The number shoots up over the next two hours, peaking at 400 at 8am.Then the number descends drastically for two hours, bottoming out at 180 at 10am.The period between 10o'clock and 12o'clock witnesses a moderate growth in the number of people in the station, with the number reaching 280 at midday.Numbers in the following two hours stabilize at just under 300 people.Then the number plummets to only 100 from 2pm to 4pm.Then the next two hours see a dramatic rise again, with 6pm registering 380 people.After 6pm, the number dips again, reaching the lowest point of 130 at 8pm.The period from 8pm to 10pm experiences a slight rise, but then the number of people declines again from 180 at 9pm to 135 at 10pm.This line graph clearly demonstrates that rush hours in the early morning and the early evening are periods when the station is used by the most people.范文2

The diagram illustrates in four stages the recovery of the forests in Yellowstone National Park after a devastating forest fire.In the first picture, while the old forests still exist, they drop bad wood to the soil under them, which renders the soil more fertile.Then lightning and fire strike, destroying the forests completely.And the growth of new forests starts right at this point.The second picture demonstrates that in the first 50 years after the devastating fire, saplings grow in build while descend in overall number.In the next two centuries, the young trees continue to thrive in Yellowstone, because of the fertile soil and the ample sunlight.Then, three hundred years after the fire, the number of trees decline to roughly the same as the old forests.These five pictures show us that it takes as long as three centuries for a destroyed forest

to fully recover.Further, they vividly explain to us the natural law of ”survival of the fittest".The number of trees that a region can support is not limitless, which means the forests on earth will not be an inexhaustible resource.祝大家都能取得雅思作文好成績!

第三篇：環(huán)球雅思少兒英語

環(huán)球雅思少兒英語

一、項目前景：

隨著全球經濟一體化的進程，教育觀念全球化的趨勢也日益凸顯，西方的文化教育正在尋找著新的切合點。英語早已經成為億萬人民最向往掌握的語言工具，每一位家長都希望自己的孩子從呀呀學語時就能開始學習英語，在中國擁有近數(shù)以億計的英語學習者，人們學習英語的年齡已經從七十年代的高中生發(fā)展到了四五歲，幼兒園就上起培訓學校。在業(yè)內，機構風生水起，英語培訓逐漸呈現(xiàn)出多元化和細致化。

1、市場機會最好。兒童英語的早期培訓是最高端的教育，其教學難度及重要性都是最高的。但現(xiàn)時的英語培訓機構卻往往把早期教育與低水平培訓等同起來，從而使教學質量相當不理想。由于低水平重復競爭激烈，從而嚴重阻礙了該市場的良性發(fā)展，致使巨大的市場潛能難以得到充分的釋放。這一現(xiàn)狀表面上看是風險、是缺憾、是挑戰(zhàn)，但對于富有前瞻性戰(zhàn)略眼光的機構來說卻是機遇、是動力、是財富。更為那些有志于在教育領域大展宏圖的實力機構提供了廣闊的市場發(fā)展空間。

2、統(tǒng)計數(shù)據(jù)表明：1.在全國中等收入的家庭中，年人均教育支出的52%要用于英語培訓，而舞蹈藝術只占20%、奧林匹克占11%、其它總計占17%；2.在一個中等規(guī)模、經濟發(fā)展一般的城市中3-6歲學前兒童有近3萬人，7-12歲小學生約5萬人，年人均業(yè)余教育支出約為3000元，其中90%以上家庭需要少兒英語培訓；

因此，少兒英語培訓市場是一個潛力極其巨大的市場。

二、英語教育現(xiàn)狀

兒童英語教學是從小學英語教育的內容延展而來的，也就是我們常說的：一個老師、一本教材、一塊黑板。單調的教學模式，填鴨式的教學內容，以應試為最終目的教學出發(fā)點，囊括了少兒英語教育模式的典型特征，幾乎完全將英語語言教育帶入了“啞語”的盲區(qū)，可悲地是，目前仍然有不少的教育機構在延承這種模式。

三、環(huán)球雅思學校介紹及教學優(yōu)勢

環(huán)球雅思創(chuàng)于1997年，2001年成立環(huán)球雅思學校，2006年9月獲得軟銀賽富數(shù)億投資組成環(huán)球天下教育科技集團Global Education & Technology Group, 擁有在56個城市從事外語培訓的連鎖學校、60所環(huán)球雅思少兒英語連鎖學校環(huán)球天下教育集團每年培訓學員超過30萬，擁有教職員工近1萬人，年營收數(shù)億，名符其實的中國培訓領軍教育集團。

作為國內最大的連鎖外語培訓機構，被評為全國十大知名學校，連續(xù)多年榮膺中國最具影響力培訓集團稱號，為中國民辦教育創(chuàng)新做出巨大貢獻。2005年9月受到教育部部長和陳香梅科教文獎的表彰。2007-2008連續(xù)獲得中國十大優(yōu)秀特許品牌，首批通過ISO9001認證的教育機構。

環(huán)球青少兒英語是目前國內唯一一家與三大世界圖書出版社進行合作的公司，2009年與麥克米倫攜手共同引進Twist and Shout教材，標志著環(huán)球青少兒英語走向新的開始，環(huán)球青少兒英語” 為中國青少兒提供集少兒英語學習和智商、情商開發(fā)為一體的全方位學習解決方案。孩子在學習過程中，不僅全面提升了英語聽說讀寫綜合能力，同時培養(yǎng)了孩子行為、科學、邏輯、語言、情感和創(chuàng)新等“六大智慧”：

行為智慧：

培養(yǎng)孩子認知自己的意志行為、潛意識行為、娛樂消遣行為、運動動作無意識行為； 科學智慧：

培養(yǎng)孩子的精確思維和模糊思維能力，幫助孩子建立從自然科學到科學技術的認知體系，培養(yǎng)孩子對科學認知的正確態(tài)度；

邏輯智慧：

培養(yǎng)孩子的概念思維、命題思維、推理思維、歸納思維和類比思維，全面提升孩子的邏輯思維能力；

語言智慧：

培養(yǎng)孩子語言組織、表達能力和主觀能動性，實現(xiàn)第二母語學習的嵌入，使孩子具備雙語思維和表現(xiàn)能力。

情感智慧：

培養(yǎng)孩子認識和妥善管理自身情緒，實現(xiàn)自我激勵，具備認知他人情緒和人際關系管理的能力，全面開發(fā)孩子“情商”；

創(chuàng)新智慧：

培養(yǎng)孩子創(chuàng)造發(fā)明智慧，讓孩子的無規(guī)律性思維轉化為科學創(chuàng)新思維。讓思想與行為同步，造就創(chuàng)新型人才

環(huán)球率先使用新型教學方法，并引進完善的教學體系:1.全球領先電子互動教學，全面開發(fā)少兒智能.2.美國青少兒同步課程，培育國際創(chuàng)造型人才.3.同步網絡自學課堂，創(chuàng)造家庭、自主學習.4.計算機國際標準評測，實時追蹤學習成效.5.國際著名出版社獨家定制教學體系.

第四篇：杭州環(huán)球雅思培訓中心雅思寫作三大誤區(qū)

杭州環(huán)球雅思培訓中心雅思寫作三大誤區(qū)

在備考雅思作文部分時，考生都喜歡在臨近考試的前面一點時間著手準備，準備的無外乎就是在考前背幾個作文模板或者作文范文。其實這種考前臨時加急復習的方法不會對雅思寫作有實質性的提分效果。

杭州環(huán)球雅思培訓中心專業(yè)致力于雅思考試培訓事業(yè)，對于雅思考試的每一環(huán)節(jié)可以說是了如指掌，希望通過總結雅思寫作的幾大誤區(qū)，烤鴨們可以從中獲益。

誤區(qū)一：言論偏激，另類思維

雅思寫作中言之有物很重要，找出論證觀點的例子和理由是整篇文章的支撐點。但是很多雅思考生在進行雅思寫作的時候，經常會出現(xiàn)一些極端的觀點，比如，在談到養(yǎng)寵物是有利還是有弊時，一些考生甚至會以“養(yǎng)寵物好，因為寵物很好吃”作為理由，假使這想法是真實的，那么依據(jù)呢？支持這觀點的依據(jù)和例子??其實，在雅思考試中，理由并沒有標準，只要能言之有物，言之有理，就是一個很好的觀點。可很多考生只是據(jù)理自居，不能夠給出事實依據(jù)，那么言論自然也就泛泛了，此外，再加上觀點過于偏激，自然也就事倍功半了。

所以，考生們在寫作文章時，要學會避免偏激，極端的言論，即使這些所謂大家心知肚明的事情，如果過于偏激還是不要寫為妙。

那么在平時準備寫作依據(jù)時，要記住有依據(jù)并非要指名道姓，“劍橋”后面的范文并沒有幾篇是特別具體的，那么什么樣的依據(jù)算是例子呢?記住，只要是論點范圍下的都算，比如，題目：出生后什么對人的個性和發(fā)展重要?分論點一：教育，那么論據(jù)可為胎教、幼兒教育、中學教育、大學教學、社會教育??這些都算例子。但如果你的分論點是“幼兒教育”，那么如果在論據(jù)中著重論述“教育”，而不是“幼兒教育”下的諸如幼兒園師資、設施、課程設置之類的，則論據(jù)就被認為過于泛泛，而不具說服力了。

誤區(qū)二：依賴模板，思維定式

對于寫作基礎差的考生在準備雅思寫作時的第一反應就是模板!套用模板!背記模板!只單純想靠模板得到高分。雖然雅思考官曾明確指出過，模板是可以接受的，但是沒有任何創(chuàng)造性的生搬硬造卻是不可取的，換言之，萬能模板是不存在的。甚至有同學曾統(tǒng)計劍3-7中所有的寫作范文里使用頻率最高的詞匯和句型并組織了一篇模板去參加考試，結果可想而知。

其實雅思寫作考察的是一個學生的話題理解能力，語言組織和運用能力，我們要學會做語言的主人，而不是成為語言的奴隸，如果不能將將語言轉化為我們的工具去抒發(fā)自己內心真實的想法，僅僅靠死套模板的說話，那么溝通也會變得舉步維艱。因此，如果我們能夠與考官坦誠相待時，相信也會贏得考官的信賴。

誤區(qū)三：僅想投機取巧，努力學習太少

對于中國的教育，中國人向來比較重視應試，當然也喜歡在應試中掌握投機取巧的方法。為了達到目標，實現(xiàn)理想，如果有捷徑誰不想去試試呢?但是對于寫作來說，想要單純的靠

投機取巧來達成高分，難!

在杭州環(huán)球雅思寫作課程的課堂中，對于不同文章的結構，老師可以分析得淋漓盡致，對于寫作的詞匯、句型、段落，還有內容的講解都可以做到有聲有色，這些都是老師們研究的成果與心血，也是諸位考生在考試中可以投的可以取的“機”和“巧”，但是這個妙手又并不是完全可以復制。所以，當很多考生在參與培訓后，卻發(fā)現(xiàn)自己還是一如既往的無從下筆，這是為什么?是老師的原因嗎?也許有些，但是更多的時候，我們是不是要問問自己，到底對于寫作，我付出了多少?

如果自己課后不多去總結，不去練習，那么再多的經驗技巧都等于白紙一張。所以，想要投機取巧還得肚子有貨。

第五篇：5.0環(huán)球雅思寫作筆記

議論文寫作概述

1字數(shù)和時間要求

字數(shù)要求250以上，太短肯定會被扣分，所以，不管寫得怎么樣，先要滿足字數(shù)要求。只要你寫得對，寫得好，字數(shù)越多越好，越能得高分。但由于時間限制，寫300字就已經算寫得很多了。但是，如果只是為了湊字數(shù)，把不相關的內容扯進文章里，而且語法錯誤很多，反而會被扣分，因此不如集中精力把要求的250字寫好。寫的時候要盡量寫滿。練習時，要用考試紙練習，對自己字的大小、疏密有大概的了解，知道寫到哪里字數(shù)大概多少，在考試時就可以不用擔心這方面，可以安心寫文章了。我考前復印了大約20份，把104—122都寫了一遍在上面，考試的時候很從容。

兩篇一共60分鐘，建議議論文用40分鐘。在最開始練習的時候，可以不受時間的限制，兩三個小時寫完一篇也可以。但應不斷提高速度，在考試前達到時間的要求。萬一考試題目不在機經里也不用慌張了，因為有了平時練習的功底。也許沒有預先寫好并且背好的那么好，但至少也能達到六分。

2命題形式

（1）對立觀點式

兩個事物或兩個觀點，讓你任選其一。在試題中占30%。如：

who should be responsible for children’s education, the school or the parents? give your opinion and tell the reasons.(2)

一個事物或一個觀點，讓你支持或反對。試題中常有do you agree or disagree的字樣。在試題中占50%。如：

some people believe that children should engage in educational pursuits in their spare time, otherwise they are wasting their time.do you agree or disagree?

（3）論說式

描述一個現(xiàn)象，讓你說明原因或給出解決方法等。占20%。如：

how should a student choose the future career ,whose opinions and what kind of information he/she considers in making the decision？ give the reasons.也可以分成兩大類，即將第一和第二統(tǒng)稱為辯論式，這兩類寫法基本上是相同的：五段論式、對稱式等。建議用能用對稱式的都用對稱式。根據(jù)經驗，相同水平的文章，對稱式的分數(shù)普遍高于五段論式。（以后再說具體寫法）

3寫作格式

雅思作文不要求寫標題。注意分段。

（1）傳統(tǒng)式

每段的第一行向右縮進去一點，與寫中文文章類似。

（2）現(xiàn)代式

每段的第一行不向右縮進，但段與段之間空一行。

建議用現(xiàn)代式，看起來更舒服，但千萬不能忘了空行。

4評分標準

（1）審題

看文章是否切題，是否回答了題目所要求的問題。

（2）結構

分幾段？先寫什么,后寫什么？

（3）內容

要說出理由支持觀點，注意多讀多背，多積累素材，這樣在考試時就不怕沒話說了。

（4）語言

首先要正確，沒有語法錯誤。其次要優(yōu)美。用詞要多樣化，如“重要”在文章三個地方出現(xiàn)，最好用不同的詞表示：important, significant, vital, crucial等。平時多做這方面的練習，對擴展你的詞匯量很有幫助。我就是這么做的，雖然沒有背單詞，可是還是積累了不少的單詞，而且能夠活學活用。對口語也有好處啊。另外，要使用復雜的詞

句子方面。要寫復雜的句子，即多寫長句，應占全文的60%。另外注意句式多變，使用盡可能多的句式。

四方面，最重要的是結構和語言。

雅思寫作并不考察考生的思想，并不是要知道考生對具體某一個社會問題有何種高明的見解，主要考的只是考生的語言技能。

總結一下，針對考試。

別忘了準備試卷紙，多復印幾份。

準備寫作模版，背下來。至少5個吧，五段論式，對稱式，論說式，都要準備，以適應不同類型的題目。模版以后再說。

認真審題，千萬注意題目具體要求。字體不要太大----顯得沒文化，也不要太小----看不清，而且寫了很多，但看起來不多，很吃虧，保持每行大約10個字。字跡要工整，給考官個好印象。我的習慣是先寫task 2,因為先寫task 1心里不踏實，寫不好。況且task 2的重要性高于task 1太多了，寫不完很要命的。根據(jù)個人的習慣和愛好吧。不管怎樣，抓緊時間，不要前松后緊，以免造成自己過于緊張
