在2015年1-7月的大作文考试中,各类大作文出现的规律与往年相似,主要仍旧以社会类和教育类为主,其次为科技类和环境保护类。具体类型和场次分布如下: 2015年雅思大作文类型分布 类型 | 次数 | 日期 | 社会发展 | 13 | 0110, 0117, 0207, 0212, 0321, 0411, 0430, 0521, 0606, 0613, 0627, 0704, 0725 | 教育 | 4 | 0228, 0314, 0418, 0516 | 科技信息 | 3 | 0214, 0328, 0509 | 犯罪 | 2 | 0425, 0618 | 环境保护 | 2 | 0129,0312 | 动物保护 | 1 | 0131 | 旅游 | 1 | 0530 | 媒体 | 1 | 0711 | 政府职能 | 1 | 0723 |
由于社会和教育这两个话题一直都是雅思大作文的热门话题,在下半年的备考中还是要多关注这两种类型的题目。政府,科技和传媒,就分别3-5次,这类话题比较少,主要是这类话题很容易成为其他话题的思路。预计下半年大作文话题会增加一些政府职能、媒体和传统文化类话题。教育和社会发展依旧是主导,预计还会出现十几次。 雅思大作文中大部分题目都是老题修改,原题很少,几乎只有5次不到,所以要注意背范文成功的几率就像中奖一样难,但是可以根据题目使用以前的观点。值得注意的是,今年上半年大作文考旧题目的周期变短了,例如4月25日的考试中考到了犯罪类题目“Young people who commit serious crimes, such as a rubbery or a violent attack should be punished in the same way as adults. To what extent do you agree or disagree?”,而在6月18日的考试中又考到非常相似的题目“In some countries, a high proportion of criminal acts are committed by teenagers. Why has this happened? What can be done to deal with this?”虽然考察的形式不一样,但基本考察的点是一样的。 大约35%的新题,所以更加要注意审题和观点如何运用恰当。不过大约30%的题目是比较简单的,也就是比较容易想到观点和论述。还有5%是比较抽象的题目,例如去年就考到了关于success的题目,今年还未出现比较难度比较大的题目,所以下半年很有可能会出现这类题目,但是数量不会多。 上半年的题目中有比较相似的题目,观点都可以借用。考生可以将上半年的题目当做练习,因为同一类型的题目中考察的点是非常相似的。以下是相似题目的分组归类: 第一组: Nowadays both scientists and tourists can go to remote natural environments such as the South Pole. Do you think the advantages of this development outweigh the disadvantages? (0129) Most countries believe that international tourism have harmful effects. Why do they think so? How to change their views? (0530) 第二组: Young people who commit serious crimes, such as a rubbery or a violent attack should be punished in the same way as adults. To what extent do you agree or disagree? (0425) In some countries, a high proportion of criminal acts are committed by teenagers. Why has this happened? What can be done to deal with this? (0618) 第三组: Some students take one year off between finishing school and going to university, in order to travel or to work. Do you think the advantages outweigh the disadvantages? (0228) It is suggested that all the young adults should undertake a period of unpaid work helping people in the community. Does it bring more benefits or drawbacks to the community and the youth? (0704) 第四组: The leaders or directors of organisations are often older people. But some people say that young people can also be a leader. Do you agree or disagree? (0110) Older people who need employment have to compete with younger people. What problems will be caused? And what are the solutions? (0411) 第五组: The use of mobile phone in certain places is just as antisocial as smoking. Do you think mobile should be banned like smoking? (0214) Some people think that the increasing use of computers and mobile phones for communication has had a negative effect on young people's reading and writing skills. To what extent do you agree or disagree? (0328) Developments of technology are causing environmental problems. Some people think the solution is that everyone accepts a simpler life, while others believe that technology can solve these problems. Discuss both views and give your opinion. (0509) 从这些题目中,我们可以看到,同一类型的题目都有一些观点可以通用,也就意味着,考生在准备某一类型的题目的时候,只要准备一些高频核心的考点就可以运用到“新题”中,例如科技类的题目核心的考点是科技带来的好处和危害,考生只要在每一方面多准备一些自己的观点,就可以运用在大部分关于科技的题目中了。 2015年1-7月雅思大作文题型 Argument | Agree or disagree | 9 | Discuss both views | 8 | Advantages outweigh the disadvantage | 5 | Report | Cause and solution; Effect and solution; Cause and effect | 6 |
议论文一直都在雅思大作文中占据主要的位置,其中以Agree or disagree类型的提问方式居多,说明文在1-7月中出现了6次,重在提出问题的解决办法。在前面总结的题目中可以看到,相似的题目在下一次出现的时候,很有可能会换成另外一种提问方式。依旧以4月25日和6月18日考到的犯罪类题目为例。两场题目都是与年轻人犯罪有关,不同的是4月25日提问的是agree or disagree,而6月18日提问的是cause and solution。这也就意味着,考生在准备某一类型的题目的时候,需要将这两种题型准备充分。 2015年下半年备考建议 从上半年的总结,我们可以看到雅思大作文出现“老题翻新”的情况还是非常高的,考生们可以着重准备每一类型题目中的核心话题,准备好自己的观点,并且要将多种题型的情况考虑进去。上半年考过的题目可以拿来当做练习,因为下半年中可能会出现相似但提问方式不一样的题目。
