雅思考生在备考雅思写作的过程中,需要对雅思写作的考题进行话题分类,并针对每类题目准备相应的解题方法和写作思路,积累不同话题的素材和词汇表达,进行限时训练,提高写作速度。
环境类
1. 环境和自然资源的保护
母题:Environmental problems are too big for individual countries and individual people to address. We have reached the stage where the only way to protect the environment is at an international level. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement? (040228, 040515, 110507
解题:采用让步的结构,承认题目观点及其合理性,不可否认,保护环境的确需要
国际合作,第一,一些全球性和世界性的环境问题,如全球变暖,臭氧层空洞,石油泄漏和海洋污染等,不仅影响了单个国家,而且对整个地球的环境都造成了影响,因此需要多个国家共同努力来解决;第二,在保护环境的过程中,通过联合多个国家来采取行动,我们可以引进其他国家先进的技术和设备,更好的解决一些区域性的环境问题。但是,这并不就是说咱们可以忽略个人和单个国家的作用。国际合作、企业、政府、个人,都可以为环境保护做出自己的努力。进一步论证个人观点,拓展段落。
子题:个人不能保护环境,只有政府和大公司才能,同意吗?个人能不能保护环境?很多人知道环境保护很重要,但是自己却不采取任何行动,这是为什么?
母题:Fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, natural gas, are used in many countries. But in some countries, the use of alternative sources of energy, including wind and solar power, are encouraged. Is this trend a positive or a negative development? (090530、
解题:这道题目问的是新型能源或可替代能源alternative energy的优缺点。优点:取之不尽用之不竭inexhaustible,可再生 renewable,更环保environmentally friendly,比较清洁干净clean;缺点:核能nuclear power可能会引发安全事故,核废料处理不易,水能hydropower会破坏生态环境upset the ecological balance, 太阳能solar power 蓄能困难,效率低,成本高,风能wind power不稳定,会产生次声波污染infrasonic wave等.

the same amount of pollution as cars. So some people think that we should discourage non-essential flights (such as for tourism, rather than to limit the use of cars. To what extent do you agree or disagree? (060325, 080405
解题:题目中的理由明显站不住脚,尽管飞机消耗的燃油比汽车要多,但是飞机的载客量和行驶的距离要远
大于汽车,因此先退一步承认题目观点,的确飞机消耗燃油要多,也会造成污染,然后再驳斥题目观点,说明
飞机被禁止的后果(旅游业,物流业将会受到巨大的影响。
子题:廉价航空是否应当被推广?飞机是20世纪最伟大的发明吗?应该空运水果蔬菜吗?坐飞机出行是否应该
被限制?汽车会带来哪些问题?是否应该限制私家车的使用?改善道路安全的唯一方式是更严厉的惩罚违章开车吗?
3. 垃圾问题
母题1:Many people say that we have developed into a “throw-away” culture, because we are filling up our environment with so many plastic bags and rubbish that we cannot fully dispose of. To what extent do you agree with this opinion and what measures can you recommend reducing this problem? (050806
母题2:Nowadays we are producing more and more rubbish. Why do you think this is happening? What can governments do to help reduce the amount of rubbish produced?
解题:这道题目咱们在备考时应该分析“一次性文化”或“浪费型文化”及垃圾问题产生的原因、后果和解决方法。原因:追求方便、卫生,过度使用塑料袋和一次性餐具等;过度消费和浪费,不健康的消费习惯和生活方式;缺乏
环保意识;缺乏垃圾处理的设施等。后果:破环环境,造成环境污染和健康隐患,即破坏水源、污染土地、污染
空气。解决方法:提高环保意识,学会分类回收垃圾,改变不健康的消费习惯和生活方式;政府制定规章制度来

This report from Stephen Evans: Falling ticket price and rising incomes are leading to rapid growth in global air travel.（导致国际航空业迅速发展的原因是机票价格的下降和收入水平的提升。）According to the British government, the number of British air passengers, for example, will more than double in the next quarter of a century（下一个25年）. Increases of such an order would mean much more aviation fuel（燃油）being burned and aviation fuel may be more harmful to the environment than other fuels because the resulting smoke is emitted at high altitudes（高海拔）. A group of scientists at the environmental research group, the Tyndall Centre, says that if Britain is to meet its overall target for cutting damaging emissions（减少有害气体排放）, other uses of fuel like for heating homes or driving cars would have to be cut dramatically. The British government wants the use of aviation fuel covered by international agreement on the environment. The difficulty for any individual government（任何政府）is that taxing fuel used at its own airports might push airlines to move their operations to competing airports in other countries. https://www.doczj.com/doc/cc1156072.html,/worldservice/learningenglish/newsenglish/witn/2005/09/050921_aviation.sh tml Calls to control low-cost flights（限制廉价航空） Cheap flights（廉价航空）on no frills airlines may not be a burden on our wallets but they will dearly cost the UK's environment（严重危害环境）, campaigners believe. Scientists predict that if carbon dioxide emissions continue to increase, global warming will bring higher annual temperatures and heavier rainfall（温室效应会带来更高的气温以及更大的降水）- with all the associated problems（相关的问题）. +将来时）it is . Agencies such as the Sustainable Development Commission (SDC) want our air tickets to reflect "the true cost of flying" to the environment. To green groups, this involves the aviation industry having to pay tax on the fuel（航空业应该为燃油使用赋税）it puts in planes.

雅思作文环境类作文
7月26日雅思写作解析与范文（环境话题） 题目：Some people think that environmental problems are too big for individuals to solve. Others, however, believe that these problems cannot be solved if individuals do not take actions. Discuss both views and give your own opinion. 解析： 环境话题是雅思考试每年的必考题，今年更是多次考到。这类话题主要涉及能源、资源和生态环境。7月26号这个题目也算是环境话题里的老题目了。前几年曾经多次出现这个题目。 保护环境当然是每个人的责任，只不过政府的责任更大。本文的主体段第一段是写得个人力量有限，主要靠政府的法律和行政权力（legal and administrative power），以及企业的财力和技术。举了几个例子，比如政府颁布法律（enact strict laws），惩罚排放污水（discharge waste water）的企业，开发新技术等等，这些都是个人力量无法做到的。 主体第二段写得是个人能够为保护环境做一些事情，依然采用举例论证，比如节约用水，减少开车。这些都是individuals能够做的事情，都能够节约资源，改进城市空气质量。这些素材在之前的环境类话题中也多次写到过。 最后一段进行总结。政府、个人，包括全社会的每一个成员都应该参与保护环境。 There is no doubt human society is faced with serious environmental problems and immediate measures should be taken to solve these problems. However, what role ordinary people should play in environmental protection is a topic of debate. Some people think that the power of the individual is too small and the solution to environmental problems lies with the government and large enterprises. If the government can use legal and administrative power to

雅思大作文范文：环境问题谁来解决 这篇文章是雅思大作文范文《环境问题谁来解决》，供大家阅读参考。认真研读一定的雅思范文及作文模板可以帮助我们检验自己的写作水平，并能很好地吸收和应用优秀范文里的优秀内容。 1.环境保护是谁的责任?考题给出的选项通常会有个人、公司、国家、国际合作等(例如04年5月15日，0-7年2月3日考题)。 2.怎样保护环境?考题通常会给出某个方案问其正确与否(如06年6月17日，08年6月14日考题)。 3.为什么人们明知环境正在被破坏却无动于衷例?(如08年9月13日A类议论文) 如果考前对以上三方面的雅思写作真题都思考过，相信本题一定会变的很简单，实际上只要把一些理由进行组合就可以了。由于考题的提问形式是“Discuss both views and give your own opinion. ”所以，既要讨论到个人能够采取何种行动解决一些环境问题，也要讨论为什么有些环境问题个人无法解决(即只有政府或公司才能解决)。 Sample Answer (274words)：
It is true that our tiny individual actions often seem insignificantcompared to the scale and complexity of global environmental problems such as pollution, deforestation and depletion of natural resources. But that does not relieve our duty as individuals to do as much as we can to deal with these problems。 Individual actions, small as they may be, can sometimes prove more effective than we realize. We can avoid driving the car, and take public transit, walk, or bicycle instead. This will reduce the use of fossil fuels and cut pollution. Saving energy at home, like turning on the air conditioner only when we have to, or turning water heater down a few degrees, is also ultimately good for the environment. Individual actions can also turn into united powers when, for example, the whole neighborhood is mobilized to participate in a local campaignto oppose environmentally damaging policies。 There are, however, obstacles that stand in the way of individual action towards environmental conservation. The first obstacle is the lack of professional knowledge needed to cope with serious environmental issues like soil erosion and salinity, which requires a significant amount of investigation and research. Another obstacle which makes individual action almost impossible is when an environmental emergency or
雅思写作考试论题讲解：环境保护中的个人力量 环保类： The environmental problem in the world can not be solved by ordinary people, and governments and large companies should be responsible for this problem. To what extent do you agree or disagree? 环境问题个人是无法解决的，只有企业和国家才能解决，是否同意? 作家立场：个人在环保中可以发挥不可替代的作用。 思路拓展： 国家企业环保的方式： 1. 国家可以采取环保政策，加强环保合作，分享环保经验。对于破坏环境的企业和个人加大处罚力度。 2. 企业，尤其是高度污染的企业(例如汽车厂，造纸厂，化工厂)，应该依赖高科技，减少对于环境的污染。例如，汽车生产企业可以研发和推广新型环保汽车，这些汽车具有小排量，低消耗，电瓶驱动等特征。 个人环保的方式： 1. 个人可以减少对于高科技产品的使用，具体来说，减少家用电器使用的频率。(例证：空调，热水器) 2. 个人可以培养环保的意识，珍惜自然资源，过简单生活。
具体而言，可以购买小排量汽车或者乘坐公共交通工具;周边游不是长途游等。(细节展开) 3. 个人可以参加环保组织，做环保志愿者，宣传环保，反对有害环境的政策的出台和推广。 原创语料库： 1. environmental pollution = environmental contamination n 环境污染 2. environmental issues = environmental problems n环境问题 3. various environment-related issues n 各种与环境相关的问题 4. live a simple life = choose a simpler lifestyle v 过简单生活 5. embark on simple lifestyle = opt for a simple lifestyle v选择简单生活 6. environmental conservation = environmental protection = environmental preservation n 环境保护 7. raise the environmental protection awareness amongst the general public v提高公众的环保意识 点评：raise = enhance = improve v 提高…… 点评：awareness = consciousness n 意识 8. take public transit = take public transport v 乘坐公共交通工具 9. foster water-wise lifestyle v 培养节水的生活方式
