2018年12月8日雅思大作文题目

Some people think that schools should group their pupils according to their academic abilities. Others believe that young people with different abilities should be educated together. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.  

解析&审题

虽然措辞方式稍微有变化，但本题与 2016年5月7日考题高度相仿。我们先看看那次考试的命题方式：

Some people think teaching children with different abilities together benefits everyone, but others think intelligent children should be taught separately and given special treatment. Discuss both views and give your own opinion. （2016/5/7）

题干的意思是：有些人认为不同能力的孩子在一起教，会对所有孩子都有好处，但其他人则认为聪明的孩子应该单独开小灶。本次题目则将2016年5月7日中的“ablilities”明确为“academic abilities”（学习方面的能力，大约就是学习成绩），但究其本质，这两次考试并无什么差异。

本次考题需要讨论的核心问题是：学习成绩不同的孩子应该分开教还是一起教？很明显，这是个教育类话题。

很多同学可能会觉得，好成绩的孩子应该在一起教，差成绩的同学在一起，这样的分班教育可能有好处，因为这样可以统一教学内容和教学进度，对每个学生的接受来说是很好的，事实上这种分班教学在中国很多学校都在实施。唐老师读书的时候，学校就有所谓快班和慢班，不同班级配备的老师不同，使用的教材也不同，教学进度也都不一样。但问题在于，如果成绩好的学生和成绩不好的学生在一起，也有很多好处：成绩不好的可以向好学生学习，因此也变得更好，而且也不会产生自卑感。与此同时，成绩好也不是教育的目标，教育的目的还在于教会孩子的领导能力，合作能力，与人相处的能力，而这些能力需要所有孩子一起接受教育才能获得的培养。于是，本题讨论的重点即由教育的方式转化为了教育的目的。事实上，教育类话题，很多都可以基于教育的目的来讨论。

01

As is often the case, students in the same school are often quite different in their academic development, but it is always a controversial issue whether students should be grouped in accordance with their academic abilities.

通常情况下，同一所学校的学生在学业发展上往往有很大的不同，但学生是否应该按照其学习能力来分班一直是个有争议的问题。

解析

（1） 开头段引出话题。由于本文采用“双边讨论”结构，因此本段仅仅提出问题，并没有明确给出自己的观点。

（2） as is often the case 通常情况下

（3） controversial 有争议的

（4） in accordance with 根据（= according to）

Giving special treatment to those highly intelligent pupils in school is sometimes really appropriate. For example, if an 11-year-old pupil is exceptionally good at maths and he is able to solve k 9 maths problems, it is truly stupid to put him in a k7 maths class. Since all these k7 maths problems are far too easy for him, he may not feel challenged at all and gradually lose his interest in maths. However, if he were grouped to learn maths together with older children, his academic potentials could be better developed. In fact, as far as the academic study is concerned at least, I believe it is beneficial to put students with similar academic abilities in the same class.  

对那些在学校里非常聪明的学生给予特殊的待遇有时是非常恰当的。例如，如果一个11岁的孩子非常擅长数学，能解决9年级数学问题，那么让他上7年级数学课真是太愚蠢了。因为所有这些7年级数学题对他来说太容易了，他可能一点也不觉得有挑战，会逐渐失去了对数学的兴趣。然而，如果把他分班到与年龄较大的孩子一起学习数学，他的学术潜力可能会得到更好的开发。事实上，至少就学习成绩而言，我认为把学习能力相近的学生安排在同一个班上是有好处的。

解析

（1）本段举例论述给成绩好的孩子特殊待遇的好处。本段使用了举例的论证方法。11岁孩子擅长数学→让他做简单的题会使他失去兴趣→让他和高年级孩子一起上课能让他的学业更好地发展→进一步指出不仅是学业，其它方面的才能也是这样的。

（2）is exceptionally good at… 在…极其擅长；exceptionally=exceedingly=extremely；烤鸭们有没有注意到其实有很多这样可以表示程度的副词可以代词very，要注意这些词的收集和灵活运用！

（3）lose interest in 失去对…的兴趣

（4）far too easy 太过容易

（5）假设句：if he were grouped…表对现在情况的假设（假设时不管前面是第几人称，谓语动词be一律用were，这是假设的标志，不要用错），后面主句用could，不能用can。

（6）academic potentials 学习潜能

Solving maths problems is not, however, the only reason why pupils go to school. As future leaders of the world, children should learn how to work out a problem in cooperation with different people. No matter how smart a person might be, he could not possibly succeed in solving a highly complex problem all by himself. Learning together with other children—even those intelligently average—provides an excellent context for pupils to develop their skills of leadership and spirit of teamwork. This is probably the reason why in the movie "Superman", Clark has to be working together with others as a newspaper man. Only in this way can the superhero understand human problems and then figure out the way to solve them.

然而，解决数学题并不是学生上学的原因。作为世界未来的领导人，儿童应该学会如何与不同的人合作解决问题。无论一个人多么聪明，他都不可能独自解决一个高度复杂的问题。与其他孩子一起学习，即使是那些智力平平的孩子，也能提供良好的环境，培养学生的领导能力和团队合作精神。这可能就是为什么在电影“超人”中，克拉克必须和其他人一起工作的原因。报刊业的人。只有这样，超级英雄才能理解人类的问题，然后找到解决问题的方法。

解析

（1）本段论述集体授课对孩子们发展的必要性：使他们学会合作。论证思路是解决数学问题并非孩子该习得的能力→再聪明的人也不能独自解决十分复杂的问题，而要通过与不同人合作→和其他孩子相处能锻炼领导能力和团队协作能力→举《超人》的例子，说明即使像是超人这样有超能力的人也需要与普通人合作→由此论证集体授课的好处。

（2）in cooperation with 与…合作

（3）no matter how + adj.不管有多么…

（4）succeed in doing sth. 成功做某事

（5）complex 复杂的

（6）intelligently average people 智力平平的人

（7）only in this way can… 只有这样才能…

（8）figure out 找到（解决办法）；想出

04

So academically children with different abilities should be taught separately because this could help maintain their interest in the subjects they are learning, yet when it comes to social skills, I do believe they could be better developed if all children—academically outstanding or not —sit in the same classroom.

因此，从学习上讲，能力不同的儿童应分开授课，因为这有助于保持他们对所学科目的兴趣，但在社交技能方面，我相信，如果所有孩子-无论学业与否-都坐在同一个教室，他们的社交技能就会得到更好的发展。

解析

（1）最后得出结论：从学习上看不同孩子应该分班上课，但在团队合作能力和领导能力的培养上应该集体上课。这种双边讨论的文章结尾一定要给出自己鲜明的观点。

（2）maintain interest in… 在…上保持兴趣

（3）when it comes to... 就......而言

（4）outstanding 的；杰出的
