2018 年1月雅思写作总结及备考建议

Task 1

从以上小作文的题型分布来看，2018 年1月延续了2017年1月的考试风格，场考了非数据图表(2018：地图---2017：流程)。

所以非数据图表应该也会像2017 年一样被重视，基本上每个月都会考一场流程或者地图，烤鸭们在准备时应该要多关注这两种非数据图表。

备考建议 Preparation Tips

平时在练习时地图题以C9T1（小岛的变迁）为练习材料，流程图则以C12T8（地热能发电）和C10T4（三文鱼的生长过程）为练习材料。

数据图表类型覆盖的面比较广，基本上是每种图形轮流考了一遍，除了表格图，所以2月份场考试（2.1）的同学们要多关注表格图。

二月份剩余几场考试（2月3、10、24）的同学，建议这几种数据图表都要关注。

此外， 三场数据图表中，动态图和静态图的比例是1:2， 静态图偏多，因此平时练习时多以静态图为主。

Task 2

大作文就题型上来看， 跟2017年1月一样，观点类依然是最主要的题型 (2018：3场---2017：2场)， 所以考前这类题型应该要有至少三篇的准备和练习量，通过练习确定这类题型的写作重点及文章结构。

利弊类型也是跟2017年一样，都就考了一次， 其他几种题型都还没有考到，所以2月份的考试中同学们要重点关注一下论述类、报告类和混合类这几种题型。同时要通过练习来确定每种题型的写作要求和文章结构。

话题方面， 会生活类(2场)和教育类(1场)依然是重点，基本是每个月考试都会涉及到的话题，所以2分月份考试的同学在准备话题方面以这两个话题为主。

以下提供一些平时备考和练习的题目：

教育类

1. Some people think that the government should decide the subject for students to study in university. Others believe that students should be allowed to apply for the subject they prefer. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

2. Some people believe that children can learn effectively by watching TV and they should be encouraged to watch TV at home and school. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

3. Many people argue that in order to improve educational quality, high school students should be encouraged to make comments or even criticism on their teachers. Others think it will lead to loss of respect and discipline in the classroom. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

4. Children’s education is expensive. In some countries, the government pays some or all of the costs. Do the advantages outweigh its disadvantages?

媒介类（广告）

这类话题近几年尤其受雅思官方的青睐，每年都会考4-5场。平时要重点准备一些话题词汇，重点总结一下广告给大众生活带来的好处和弊端。

1. Researchers show that overeating is as harmful as smoking. Therefore, advertising for food products should be banned, in the same way as the cigarette advertising is banned in many countries. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

2. Today advertising can be seen everywhere in daily life. It has influenced what people think and has negative effects.  To what extent do you agree or disagree?

3. Nowadays consumers are faced with the advertisements from competitive companies. To what extent do you agree that consumers are influenced by advertisements? What measures should be taken to protect them?

4. Advertising discourages us from being different individuals by making us all want to be and to look the same. Do you agree or disagree?

环境类

这类话题几乎每年都会考到，但是2017年一场都没有考，所以2018年环境类话题也要格外留心。

1. The natural resources such as oil, forests and fresh water are being consumed at an alarming rate. What problems does it cause? How can we solve these problems?

2. Nuclear energy is the best source of power in meeting ever-increasing energy needs.  To what extent do you agree or disagree?

3.The international community should act immediately to ensure that all countries reduce the consumption of fossil fuels (e.g. gas and oil).  To what extent do you agree or disagree?

4. Some people think that private companies, rather than the government, should pay for cleaning up the environment. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

5. Some people think that the amount of noise people make have to be controlled strictly. Others say that people are free to make as much noise as they wish.Discuss both views and give your opinion.

6. 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?
