Growth in air travel harms environment(飞行增多危害环境) Climate change experts from the Tyndall Climate Research Centre in Britain have said urgent action（紧急行动）is needed to curb the rapid growth in air travel（抑制飞行的快速增长）if the government is to meet its commitments（实现承诺）on tackling global warming（处理温室效应）. 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/d815524772.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.

Crime 类范文 犯罪类 There are an increasing number of juvenile delinquents. What are the causes of this phenomenon? 只分析一个方面（产生原因），写成5段式 开头段（不少于4句） In this day and age, the incidence of juvenile offenses has been growing at an alarming rate. Today, the sheer number of juvenile offenders has reached staggering proportions. A recent survey conducted by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences revealed that one out of four crimes today was carried out by minors. Hence, it is imperative that we pinpoint the causes of this disturbing phenomenon. 主体段1（不少于4句） In the first place, many instance of juvenile delinquency have been attributed to the violent or pornographic content of some TV shows and video games. Now we are facing a proliferation of blood and guts and nudity on TV, the computer and the Internet. Many youngsters, especially boys, get addicted to such scenes. Lacking the capacity to distinguish between right and wrong, they develop criminal tendencies. 主体段2（不少于4句） In the second place, parental neglect and domestic violence play a pivotal role in the increase of youth crimes. Today there are an ever-growing number of dysfunctional families. The children raised in such families tend to be afflicted with constant fear. In the end, they develop a hatred for society and other individuals. 主体段3（不少于4句） In the third place, there is a definite correlation between the increase of juvenile crime rate and the rise of adult crime rate in society. The more adult crimes, the higher the probability of youngsters falling prey to adult offenders. Many youths are tempted by evil adults into committing crimes. And some others are victims of adult offenses and become criminals themselves to get their revenge on society. 结尾段（不少于2句） In sum, many factors contribute to the surge of juvenile delinquency. It is crucial that we take vigorous measures to tackle these problems and ensure that the future or our nation—that is, the youngsters, have a more promising future ahead of them. Crime 类8分范文 Some people think the media should not report details of crimes to the public. To what extent do you agree or disagree? 一边倒写法=写完全同意或者完全不同意：五段式 开头段（不少于4句） With the crime rate hovering at high level, the print media as well as the electronic media dedicate large proportions of their space or airtime to detailed crime coverage. Whether the media should present detailed accounts of crimes has triggered spirited debate. Many assert that the news media should stop giving details of crimes. Speaking for myself, I totally agree with their views. 表示同意可以替换成approve of /wholeheartedly support/ cannot agree with their view more/ consent to/ am for 不同意可以替换成disagree with/ am against/ am opposed to / object to/ disapprove of/ cannot go along with 主体段1（不少于4句） In the first place, given the mercenary motives behind most detailed crime coverage, it is imperative that we discourage such coverage. The principal purpose of reporter covering criminal acts is to boost newspaper circulations or television ratings; much detailed crime coverage is biased or exaggerated. It only serves to leave a multitude of citizens constantly fearful about crime. 主体段2（不少于4句） In the second place, detailed reports of crimes by the press afford the potential criminals very useful learning materials. Reporting crimes in graphic detail helps those who are in the process of plan some criminal act to perfect their plans. Drawing on the well-documented crime stories in the media, would-be criminals learn how to avoid the mistakes in their crime. And this may aggravate the already soaring crime rate. 主体段3（不少于4句） In the third place, detailed reports of heinous crimes may traumatize the victims of the reported crimes. The reporters rarely consult the victims before they describe details of horrific crimes to the public. Hence, such reports become nothing more than an attempt to satisfy the curiosity of some base minds. Without
雅思听力 section 2高分策略详解 Section2的场景仍以社会生活场景为主，如旅游(traveling),校园生活(campus life) ，银行 (banking) 场景，其中尤以旅游场景最为常见。 熟悉场景词汇是把握原文信息的关键，所以在准备考试时应该先 解决词汇问题。雅思考试不同于托福，后者的听力题都是选择题，而前 者有很大一部分题是要求拼写单词的，即不光要听得到考点，还要准确 地拼写下来。以 traveling 场景为例，关于旅行服饰中的词汇步 行靴 (walking boots) 、夹克衫 (jacket), 旅行装备中的急救箱 (first-aid kit) 、手电筒 (torch), 交通工具中的四轮驱动 (four- wheel drive) ，旅游目的地中的热带雨林 (rain forest) 、乡村(village) 、瀑布 (waterfall) 等都应该会拼写。 校园生活场景不同于 Section3 、4 中的教育 (Education) 场景，前者偏重于生活方面，而后者侧重于学术(academic) 方面，关于教育场景会在 Scetion3 、4 的讲解中分析。校园生活场景包括校园设施(facilities) 、规矩 (rules) 、新生报到 (orientation) 等一系列较生活化的相关话题。如一个顾问(counselor) 给大家介绍该校的协助支持中心 (supporting center), 内容涉及如何申请奖学金 (scholarship) 和津贴 (grants), 如何与导师联系等等。拿刚刚结束的5月14号考试为例， Section 2 第 19 题 dinging room ----inexpensive(the prices are quite reasonable) ，就是该场景的体现。 又如，银行 (banking) 场景，主要是考如何开帐户 (open an account), 开什么帐户 ( 一般是学生帐户 (student account), 只有在获得银行允许 (permission from bank) 的情况下，才能够透支(overdraft), 并且还要支付一定的利息 (interest) 。同样， 5 月 14 号Section 2 中 18 题关于 bank 每天开放的次数 -- open twice 。以上所举的场景相关词汇考生都应该熟练掌握。 雅思听力 Section2 题型及技巧
雅思听力真题分类解析 雅思听力对于许多同学来说是比较难的一部分，相对来说题型也比较多。下面是小编给大家整理的雅思听力真题分类解析，大家可以作为了解。 雅思听力题型分类之选择题： 题量：10道题以上，容易出现在s2和s3部分;难度较高 题型特点： 1.审题压力大：有单选题和多选题，单词量多，阅读速度要求高 2.错误选项干扰大：对听句子的反应速度要求高 3.题目和正确选项会出现同义替换 题目可能已经给出句子的前半部分，考生需在选项中选择一个较好答案完成这个句子。题目也可能是一个完整的问题，考生需在选项中选择一个较好的答案作答。考生需要从三个可供选择的答案A、B、或C选择一个较好的答案或句子结尾。 选择题这种题型中考生都比较熟悉，所以可能对于考生来说算是相对比较容易备考及应的一种题型。但是要记住切忌大意，因为雅思考测的是学生的英语应用能力，所以考试内容的广度及深度都要远远高于内其他类英语考。在雅思听力中的选择题有区别于传统听力考的一些特征。雅思听力的选择题更加注重细节的考察，在section 3和section 4部分听力所涉及的场景内容更加专业。 雅思听力题型分类之填空题： 题量：20道题以上，容易出现在s1和s4部分，是听力中的要点题型，难度中等
出题特点： 1.单词拼写一般是低难度，比如：月份，星期、旅游景点，但是对于书写格式要求严格 2.题目会出现同义替换，需要积累一定同意替换词汇 3.所听即所得：答案会直接在听力中给出 4.先答案后题目：在个别填空题中会先出现答案，然后再出现题目中的信息 考生先阅读一组句子，这些句子对听力材料中部分或者全部内容进行了总结。考生需使用听力材料中的信息对每个句子的空格以简短的方式进行填空作答。题目的指示中会对字数要求进行限定，通常为不超过三个单词和/或一个数字。考生所用的单词应该是直接从听力材料中所听到的单词。如果考生填写了超过问题指示中所要求的字数，即使所填的内容中包含正确的答案，也会被扣分。缩写的单词不会被作为考的内容。带有连字符的单词按照一个单词计算。 雅思听力填空题有单句填空和摘要填空两种。这类题型因为给出一定的信息，所以对考生来说是相对来说比较简单的一类题。同内英语考相同，建议考生在听听力之前，留意句子关键词，并根据空格前后内容猜测并判断空格处要填入部分的词性或所担当的成分。切记不要超过三个单词和/或一个数字，要仔细阅读题目的指示再作答。 雅思听力题型分类之匹配题： 题量：4-8题左右;常出现在section2和section3中，难度较高 题型特点： 1.审题压力大：选项较多时对于阅读速度有要求 2.听题节奏快，干扰多，容易抓不到答案

They think that we should dress what we like and feel comfortable. Do you agree or disagree? 解析: 支持追随潮流(following fashion)的观点： ? 时装是自我表达( a means of self-expression)的一种休现，表现人的性格和喜好(reflect one's personality or likes)，让人们在生活巾体验不同角色(allow people to try on many roles in life)，同时便世界更加丰富多彩(diversity and variety of the world in which we live); ? 新时代的时尚(fashion in the new era)并不一定意味着高消费，也并非一定穿某种款式的衣服才算时尚;
? 时装源于生活(root in daily life),反映生活趋势(reflect that life)，充分考虑了消费者的需求C consider consumer demand)，不像人们想的那样肤浅(not as superficial as some people think) 反对追随潮流(following fashion )的观点： ? 潮流变化太快，盲目追求潮流(follow fashion blindly)是浪费时间和金钱; ? 失去了自己的喜好和判断(dwell too much on what others think); ? 鼓励人们将衣服和地位、社会阶层还有财富联系在一起(associate clothing with status, social class and wealth),这是一种歧视。 范文 Fashion refers to a style of clothing worn by most people of a country.

雅思听力高分详解 第一节雅思听力概述 第二节雅思听力十大场景 第三节雅思听力题型及解题技巧大解密 前言 雅思听力十大场景 主场景一租房 只有“安居”才能“乐业”，当广大的烤鸭朋友们踏上异乡土地的时候，寻找适合自己居住的房子就成了头等大事，这也是为什么租房场景在雅思考试中如此重要的原因。现在就陪同大家一起在英语国家租房。 租房场景一般出现在section1 部分，它经常在三类人之间展开对话，他们分别是房屋中介代理商，房东及房客。 9 分场景词汇 1）Campus 校园（出国留学住在校园里是很多学生和家长的首选但可惜国外的大学宿舍数量有限，所以很多同学就不得不选择校外租房了。） 2）homestay 寄宿家庭(初到一个国家这是一种很好的居住方式，有利于了解当地的风土人情，对语言学习也会有巨大的帮助，便于以最快的时间融入西方社会) 3）homestay family 寄宿家庭（一般来说房东一家都很热情，但西方人都会遵守my house,my rule.这样的方针。所以同学们一定要遵守房东的规定，切不可擅自行动） 4）flat/apartment（这是最常见的一类房屋。每一间公寓都是一桩建筑中的独立单位(unit). 国内的高楼次繗皆比，但国外的居民楼却很少见高层。） 5）roommate---roomie 室友 6）house 国外的主流住宅 7）garden 花园一些租房的同学会强烈要求房东家有花园，美丽的花园是英国人的挚爱。 花园里一般都点缀着假山，古树，花坛，流水，石径，鸟语花香，日影斑驳。 8）yard 后院 9）garage 车库
