Scientists believe that eating fast food is harmful to one’s health. Some people think that education can help them change that bad habit. Others, however, argue that education does not work.Discuss both these views and give your own opinion. 科学家认为吃快餐有害健康，有人认为教育可以帮助人们改变这个不良习惯，有人认为教育不起作用，讨论两种观点。(2010年12月11日雅思考试题目) 【名师点评】讨论两种观点，可以使用第一人称口吻，也可以使用第三人称口吻。【作家立场】保障健康饮食，教育是起到一定的积极作用，但是，健康饮食不能仅仅依靠教育。 【思路拓展】 ①青少年是快餐的主要消费者，快餐含有过多的糖分、脂肪、热量，长期食用有害健康。所以，青少年应该成为教育的主体。 ②为了减少快餐对于消费者的不良影响，除了教育以外，政府也该承担责任。例如，美国政府已经限制肯德基捆绑销售儿童套餐的商业行为。 【范文赏析】 【首段】背景介绍+ 作家立场 So prevailing are the fast foods that some teenagers are in the habit eating junk foods nearly every week. From the perspective of some
nutritionists, too much intake of sugar, calorie and fat is undoubtedly health-threatening, for fast food, in most cases, is low in nutritional value. People differ greatly in their views as to how to foster wholesome dietary habit. As I see it, educating the public about the dangers of unhealthy eating, regulating baneful sales and food advertisements to children and lowering the price of healthy foods should be used together to help people keep fit. 【二段】 Granted, one effective way to promote a healthy diet is to educate people about the potential risks of unhealthy diet. Modern people might opt for healthier meals and snacks if they are taught that fast foods are high in salt, fat and sugar. To illustrate, I myself changed my unwholesome eating habits after watching television programs on how to preserve health. Also, while it is of great significance to educate adult eater, schoolchildren should be main target for education because they are not only in their formative years but also the regular eaters of fast foods. 【三段】 In addition to education, other ways to promote healthy eating are not far to seek. First, methods should be adopted to strictly censor those

2020 年雅思写作语料库：科技时代传统教育是否还有 价值 考试真题（2020 年 9 月 12 日）： Some people think that students at schools and universities learn far more from teachers than from other resources(the Internet or television). To what extent do you agree or disagree? 有人认为：对于其他的学习渠道，例如网络教育或者电视教育，学生在学校和大学能够和老师学习更多，是否认同 类似题目】： Some people think that computers and the Internet are more important for a child's education than going to school. But others believe that schools and teachers are essential for children to learn effectively. Discuss both views and give your own opinion. 有人认为计算机和互联网对于孩子的教育比去学校有效，有认为老师和学校对于孩子的高效学习更加重要，讨论两种观点 ? 薛鹏点评】： 如果雅思备考仅练习一篇文章，本题首选，关于网络教育和课堂 教育的比较，每年必考。练习本篇，教育类话题融会贯通。 薛鹏感言】： 我是如何做出预测的：对 20 年考试题库的整理、分类、考频统计。归类考题类型、核心母题、边缘考题。无论考试如何变化，我相信热题恒热、遗漏太久、必然回补。网络教育和课堂教育每年的考频 1-2 次，必然会考，意料之中。仅仅，不知你是否还信赖小鹏哥：惯性阅
Some people believe that students should study in groups. Others think that they should study alone. What are the benefits of studying in groups and studying alone? Which way is more effective? 有人认为学生们应该小组学习，有人认为学生们应该自己学习，小组学习和自己学习利好各在哪里，你认为何种方式有效? 【思路拓展】 小组学习的利好： 1. 小组讨论，集思广益，例证展开：小组讨论数学题的解题思路，小组讨论作文的头脑风暴。 2. 有良好的学习氛围，可以帮助缺乏自律性的孩子们专注于学习，提高学习效率。 3. 有效的方式结实新朋友，锻炼人的口才，交流能力以及团队精神。 自己学习的利好： 1. 培养了自己的独立思考以及解决问题的能力，学习上不会对他人产生过度的依赖。 2. 小组学习更加容易培养人的分析性思维，理性思维和辩证思维的能力。 点评：论据支持可以学习历史和哲学，以及中学生学习国际新闻 【作者立场】
小组学习和自己学习各有优势，选择应该由个人做出，我过去常常一个人学习，虽然可以独立思考，但是未能感知小组讨论和交流的乐趣，因此，有机会，我更加渴望小组学习。 点评：主题观点是模仿雅思考官男女分校的范文 【原创语料库】 1. group study 小组学习 2. to study with a group of fellow classmates 和同龄人一起学习 拓展：a group of fellow classmates = peers 同龄人 3. focus on self-improvement 专注于自我提高 4. zero in on academic study = concentrate on learning专注学习(写作亮点) 5. a great many self-leaner 很多的自学者 6. achieve academic success 取得学习的成功 7. enhance the efficiency of learning 提高学习效率 8. face-to-face communication could …… 面对面交流可以…… 9. positive interaction w ith …… 和…… 积极的互动

In some countries，the role of a mother differs in some ways from the role of a father. Why do you think these differences exist? How might parental roles develop in the future? 在一些国家，父母在教育孩子中扮演的角色，和很多方面，是不同的，为何存在这种差异，在未来父母的角色会有哪些变化? 【名师点评】 新题出现，恒热教育，谈及父母对于孩子成长中影响差异的原因，展望父母在孩子未来成长中作用的不同，不属分析问题解决问题话题，考察头脑风暴，写作有一定难度。 预测题目中的寒门贵子还是将门虎子，是否所有的父母都应该学习育儿课程，和本场考试都有交集。 【思路拓展】 男性比较理性和阳刚，女性比较感性和温柔，因此，他们对于孩子成长的影响自然不同，一般而言，孩子会从爸爸身上学到坚毅和勇敢，会从妈妈身上学会善良和孝道。骨血相连，血浓于水，无论父母，对于孩子的教育和引导都是积极的善意的。爸爸努力赚钱，是为孩子赢一个成长环境，妈妈努力育儿，是让孩子明辨是非、行为规范。 教育这个词的本源是说将一个人从一种蒙昧的无知的状态中引导出来，教育应该涉及道德教育、性格培养、学术教育等。
教育不能颠覆：道德教育和性格培养应该优先于学术成长，先重品质和品行，后重成绩和选择。如果可以畅想未来，父爱如山，为人父，应该树立标杆，让孩子学会志存高远，不懈奋斗。母爱如水，为人母，应该树立标杆，让孩子学会海纳百川，清澈纯净。 【范文赏析】 【首段】背景介绍+ 写作目的 Parents are the initial teachers of their children, thereby, their speeches and behaviors, to a larger extent, exert a subtle influence on children’s character-training and future development. The impacts that parents impose on their kids might differ greatly due to various reasons. This essay aims to explore where the differences lie in and how parental roles will change in the future. 【解析】 1. Their speeches and behaviors, to a larger extent, exert a subtle influence on children’s character-training and future development. 父母的言行举止，在很大程度上，对于孩子的性格培养和未来发展有潜移默化的影响。
1月30日雅思大作文解析—雅思写作培训【郑州新东方】 写作话题 In some cities, the government has tried to reduce traffic. For instance, they imposed a congestion tax during rush hour. Do you think this development is positive or negative? 在一些城市，政府试图缓解交通压力，例如，征收高峰期通行费，你认为有力还是有弊?(2016年1月30日) 【作家立场】我支持司机们应当支付一定的费用，取得“城市高峰通行许可证”，才能在高峰期间上路。 思路拓展 司机付费的利好：①这种做法可以有效地缓解交通拥堵的压力，同时，这可以有效地缓解空气污染和噪音污染。②这种做法可以节省职场人士上下班的交通时间。 司机付费的弊端：①即使是每天付少量费用，也会增加司机经济的压力，但是，我想反驳的是：等候的时间的油料消耗可能比支付的交通通行费更高。范文赏析 【首段】背景介绍+ 作家立场 Going through the rush hours is a tiresome business. The prevalence of various public transport has led to severe traffic
congestion，especially during the rush hours. Being stuck in the long queues of vehicles seems to be a big headache for many city dwellers. Personally speaking, it is about time governments adopted effective measures, drivers should be charged when they need to drive out in a heavy traffic, which will exert a really positive impact on reducing the serious traffic conditions. 【二段】第一次支持作家立场 For a start, paying some permission fees could decrease the incidence of going through the busy traffic. To be more specific, some drivers would be unwilling to drive their cars in order to save money when they have no urgent things. Hence，this will mitigate the pressure of heavy traffic congestion. Further, the decreasing number of cars will also purify the air and reduce the noise. As a result, the living quality of the whole city will be greatly optimized, citizens will enjoy a cleaner environment. 【三段】第二次支持作家立场 This debate reminds me of my own city. Our city government has fewer policies in terms of tackling the pressure of traffic congestion, which negatively influences people’s normal work. The large amount of release of exhaust gas has deteriorated the environment. Even worse, long time wait will ruin the drivers’moods. Consequently, some people

Giving Examples Writers may give specific examples as evidence to support their general claims or arguments. Examples can also be used to help the reader or listener understand unfamiliar or difficult concepts, and they tend to be easier to remember. For this reason, they are often used in teaching. Finally, students may be required to give examples in their work to demonstrate that they have understood a complex problem or concept. Many paragraphs in academic writing show development from general statements to specific details or examples. In most paragraphs, therefore, examples usually come after a more general statement, as in the short extract below. Many words can often acquire a more narrow meaning over time, or may come to be chiefly used in one special sense. A classic example of this practice is the word doctor. There were doctors (i.e., learned men) in theology, law, and many other fields beside medicine, but nowadays when we send for the doctor we mean a member of only one profession. Examples as the main information in a sentence: For example / instance, the word doctor used to mean a learned man. For example, Smith and Jones (2004) conducted a series of semi-structured interviews in ...... By way of illustration, Smith (2003) shows how the data for ..... A classic / well-known example of this is ....... An example of this is the study carried out by Smith (2004) in which ....... X is a good example / illustration of ....... X illustrates this point / shows this point clearly. This can be illustrated briefly by ....... Young people begin smoking for a variety of reasons. They may, for example, be influenced by their peers, or they may see their parents as role models. The evidence of X can be clearly seen in the case of..… Another example of what is meant by X is ...... Diseases that can result at least in part from stress include arthritis, asthma, migrane, headaches and ulcers. Examples as additional information in a sentence Young people begin smoking for a variety of reasons, such as pressure from peers and the role model of parents. Pavlov found that if some other stimulus, for example the ringing of a bell, preceded the food, the dog would start salivating. In Paris, Gassendi kept in close contact with many other prominent scholars such as Kepler, Galileo, Hobbes, and Descartes. The prices of resources, such as copper, iron ore, oil, coal and aluminium, have declined in real terms over the past 20 years. Many diseases can result at least in part from stress, including: arthritis, asthma, migrane, headaches and ulcers.
