I think = I believe = I hold the opinion that = my view is 说明文一般描述的是关于社会现象或者问题，包括了或者是一个趋势的优点或者是缺点，这类文章通常都是以描述为主，基于事实描述，比较客观，不代有任何的特殊性。就是一般我们这个社会都能够接受的论点。 议论文一般针对的是题目中的一个话题 (some people think)，以及部分人对这个话题的想法(some people think, while others believe, 有些人认为。。。当另外一些人认为)，然后要求你是不是同意或者是发表你自己的看法（I think this is correct/true; I disagree with this）。这类题目通常会在题目中引述一个观点，然后要求你针对那个观点，进行写作。议论文比较基于主观事实描述，一般来说，文章的主体是以为什么而展开，，作者需要通过解释，论证从而达到一个比较合理的能够具有说服力的一个层次。作者要展开自己的想法，并要通过论证，让读者认为你所写的是正确的，合理的。 议论文通常只有两种问法： To what extent do you agree or disagree??

雅思写作大作文审题攻略 雅思写作大作文，要想取得高分，就需要做好审题工作。然而，雅思写作大作文的题目要怎么审呢?下面就和大家分享雅思写作大作文审题攻略，希望能够帮助到大家，来欣赏一下吧。 雅思写作大作文审题攻略 雅思写作审题第一步是通读。 通常考生的习惯是，拿到作文先看一下小作文考什么图，再看一下大作文考什么题，然后开始动手写小作文。其实就这么看一下，你知道了今天考的是什么类别，什么主题，就已经把通读的工作做好了。在一边写小作文的时候，你的大脑无意中其实已经开始酝酿大作文了。 第二步是细读。 当小作文完成，考生正式开始进入大作文的时候，你需要再仔仔细细把题目读一次，并且要去找一下题目中的关键词，有没有限定词/句，有没有绝对词。所谓限定词，就是把题目的主题限定在一定范围内的词。比如：The incidence of violence/crimes for young people is increasing. Give possible reasons and recommendations of punishment and measures to the situation., 这个题目中youth就是一个关键词，全文必须围绕青少年来分析
其犯罪原因和惩罚方案，有的学生写到了失业率高，找不到工作，没有钱负担生活，所以去犯罪。 这个理由用于成年人的犯罪是很好，但大多数的青少年还在学习阶段，还没工作，自然谈不上失业的压力。所以写这个话题，如果我们从家庭和学校的环境，以及媒体的影响这几个方面去着手会更切题。所谓绝对词，就是all, best, only, the most等词汇，题目中出现这样词汇，考生是很容易提出反驳的。比如Some people think economic development is the only way to measure the success of a government. To what extend do you agree or disagree. 经济的发展确实是衡量一个政府是否成功的重要标志，我们可以写一到两个段落来说明经济的重要性，然后再写一个让步段，来反驳ONLY这个词，可以提出教育的普及，社会福利等方面也不可忽视，这样*就更全面。 第三步——列提纲。 这是所有写作老师都反复强调，而学生却总不愿意去做的一件事。不愿意列提纲的理由是大家总觉得40分钟时间宝贵，恨不得从第一秒就开始拼命写。但是，没有整理好思路，一边想一边写的结果是更加浪费时间，而且段落的发展越到后面越混乱。 在列提纲之初，肯定是先要brainstorming，问题是很多考生brainstorming完了就以为自己审完了题目。其实brainstorming 出来的很多点是有重复或者有因果关系的，如果以这些重复或有
历年雅思写作高频题目汇总与分析 雅思写作有题库，又称为机经，在雅思培训界包括对众多雅思考生来说并不是什么新鲜事。话说机经这个概念也是最早从美国研究生考试之一的GRE考试中借鉴过来，并广泛应用到各大出国类考试当中的。即便对于刚刚涉足雅思领域的考生们，在网上下载一份近十多年来的每场雅思考试的作文题目并不是什么困难的事情。每当考试前，众多雅思届的大神们就根据以往所总结的出题规律，对机经范围加以压缩，从而形成小范围的机经预测，所预测的写作题目数量也是从十几道到几十道题目不等。但是，一直以来，这种雅思写作机经的小范围预测对于考生来说，效果并不是很好，甚至有些不尽如人意。仔细分析，其原因有三。首先，机经的数量非常庞大，有几百道题目，就算准备时间再充分的学生，也不可能将每个题目，甚至说大多数的题目都一一进行准备。而就算小范围的预测，往往也是数十道题目。而且，范围越小的预测往往离考试时间越接近。这就说明了在实际操作过程中，考生并没有可能将所有的题目都准备完。而大多数考生面对写作机经的做法更多的是准备一小部分，碰碰运气，看最终能否压中题目。所以，效果自然不好。其次，现在雅思写作的新题数量非常多，所以根据机经来预测题目的可靠度和可信度大打折扣。其实，雅思官方已经意识到了中国学生通过机经来走捷径的形式，所以在考试中加入了很多新题，从而避免对那些没有准备机经的学生造成不公平。最后，很多时候，就算雅思官方用的是旧题，但只要对一些关键词稍作修改，考生所需要写的内容就必须做出适当的改变，否则就会有跑题的危险。比如说广告的影响和广告对孩子的影响肯定不可能是同样的分论点，同样的例子。如果考生一看题目类似，在些许的激动之下，套用了机经范文的内容的话，就会偏题，分数自然会偏低。 那么，在这样的情况下，是不是说整理机经就没有用了？往年的考题对现在的雅思考生来说是不是就没有任何的参考价值了呢？答案当然是否定的。雅思话题基本上已经涵盖了人们生活的方方面面，即使再出新题，也是寻求一个新的角度而已，并不太可能（当然肯定会有）出现完全崭新的话题和题目。那么我们该如何对待旧题呢？仔细的分析历年考题，我们会发现完全相同的题目并不是很多，可以说非常有限。有很多类似的题目，可能在某个点，某个面上有类似的内容，但总有一些内容是不一样的。研究机经的最重要的目的就是将这些题目的相同点找出来，构成我们的高频题目。所谓的新题，其思路也不过是在这些高频题目的思

雅思写作大作文题目类型介绍 雅思写作大作文题目类型6大类介绍一文说明了雅思大作文的6种按照写作目的来分的作文类型。下面就和大家分享雅思写作大作文题目类型6大类介绍，希望能够帮助到大家，来欣赏一下吧。 雅思写作大作文题目类型6大类介绍 *是雅思大作文写作的六大基本题型的介绍。烤鸭们需要先对这几个基本题型进行了解，因为只有知道了雅思大作文写作的基本题型才能在准备的过程中有重点的分别准备，那么雅思大作文等都有哪些基本题型呢? 1.foragainst,或者是advantagedisadvantage 2.discussion 3.to what extent do you agree or disagree 4.causeeffect 5.problemsolution 6parecontrast
在这6个20XX年雅思大作文写作基本题型中，第六种很少考到,4和5被国内叫做report,实际上这两种是分开的.第一种foragainst现在雅思考试中也比较少考,最多的是2和3。 以上6种essay,每种都有自己的一套结构和写法,所以指望说所谓的"万能模板"来搞定雅思写作有些不大现实，但是还是有些雅思大作文的写作模板可以借鉴。. 这里就简单举causeeffect这类的essay来当例子,说说这样的essay,具体某一个body paragraph怎么写. 首先,你要有个topic sentence,接下来,在causeeffect这样的一对逻辑关系中,你要做的就是把一个一个cause和effect用逻辑关系链接起来.注意每个causeeffect的组合中的effect都可以变成下一对组合中的cause.) 例如: no investment in rural areas-poverty-go to city to find job opportunities-the increase of population in cities-demand for transportation-more vehicles-more exhausts-more air pollution-more diseases related to air pollution-death rate increase-lift expectancy decrease. 这样就是个完整的链条了
