积累雅思大作文教育类话题 朗阁雅思考试研究中心 这篇文章主要探讨大学教育学费应该由谁来支付的问题。这个话题其实是模凌两可的，两方面观点都可以展开去说，并不像之前的题目那样有个明显的倾向性。所以，这对于考生来说并不是一个太难的题目，正反两方面内容，分论点，论据都比较充足。 ?学校的责任与重点 ?Some people say university students should pay for their tuition fees. Some other say the government should pay for the tuition fees. What is your opinion? 在回答这个题目的时候，考生需要注意以下几点：1. 不要用现实社会现状来当做理由和论据。可能很多学生会说现在全世界大多数国家的大学学费是需要学生来支付的，这其中必有道理。其实，这个题目的目的就是让考生去表达出自己的想法，然后加以证明即可。2. 不要纠结government. 根据朗阁雅思考试研究中心专家们的经验，很多考生可能都会说到学费可以由大学拉赞助，以奖学金的形式支付给学生。这里考生把重点放到了政府和学生之外的第三方。这种讨论并没有错，只是有一些非常规，不太符合雅思的要求。一般的雅思话题都有两个完全的对立面。如果考生认为应该由第三方来解决的话，那么可以把这一条放在最后的结尾，当成一个建议来说，而不是放到主体段，否则会干扰考生的观点。3. 很多学生会想到很多贫穷的家庭付不起学费这个观点。这个观点看起来似乎合情合理，但其实不然。因为学生负担不起并不代表政府就有义务来支付。如果按照这个逻辑，那很多家庭买不起车，政府难道还要帮每个家庭买车吗？所以，这个论证的关键在于强调教育是基本权利的问题。 Pros: (Government) ?政府有责任和义务来支付学生的学费。教育是学生的基本权利，不应该有人因为金钱问题，支付不起学费而被剥夺接受教育的权利。无论如何，政府最重要的职责都 是带动社会发展与推进。在现今社会，科技逐渐成为一个国家经济，社会发展的重 要推动力。如何能够掌握这些先进科学技术知识就成为了政府职责的重中之重。显 然，培养各个领域的人才是掌握这些科技的重要手段和方法。所以，向大众提供教

在雅思写作的四大评分标准当中，连贯性与衔接性是其中的一项评分标准，连贯性与衔接性其中一方面就是用连接手段（即连接词）来实现的。连接词本身是非常繁琐的知识，在教授连接词时也会遇到很多困难，那么学连接词首先把连接词词性掌握并掌握各词性的用法，学连接词就简便得多。朗阁海外考试研究中心分析认为，连接词大体可分为四种词性：连词，副词，介词和短语，它们各自的用法又不一样。 连词 如but, and,后接句子，连接并列句时前面逗号可有可无。当然连词也可放句首，这一点在考官范文里有很多体现。 例：In the past, populations were partly regulated by frequent war and widespread disease, but in recent years the effects of those factors have been diminished. (并列句中的连词) 段落开始：But how should it be achieved ( 连词放句首) 介词 如before, despite：后接名词或动名词 例：Before talking about the essential role of death penalty, you have to think about the meaning, and the purpose, of any kind of punishment. 副词 副词连接并列句，前面用句号或分号，后面用逗号（当然，如果副词前用句号，那就是另起一句了，不称之为并列句） 例：In many places today, children start primary school at around the age of six or seven. However, because it is more likely now that both parents work, there is little opportunities for children to stay in their own home up to that age.( 副词另起一句) The crime rate is increasingly high; therefore, the government needs to enforce more laws to curb this situation. ( 副词在并列句中) 短语 如on the contrary, in addition：用法和副词用法完全一样 例：They feel this is one area of life where they have the right to make decisions for themselves. For that reason, it would seem that the best approach would be work by persuasion rather than compulsion. The government plays a crucial role in scientific research; on the other hand, private companies hold certain advantages in conducting scientific research. ( 短语在并列句中) 掌握连接词的四大词性及用法以后，连接词的教学和运用就容易展开。我们可以参看考官范文，看看各类关系的时候考官如何使用连接词，使文章凸显出来。 因果关系 根据词性及用法可归结于: because / since/ as / for, so (连词), because of/ due to / owing to/ as a result of (介词) for that reason/as a result/ therefore/ accordingly (短语和副词) 例：I think the amount of waste produced is also as a result of our tendency to use sth once and throw it away. （可代替词汇because of/ due to / owing to）
As the economy and technology develop at an incredible speed in today’s society, there are an increasing number of people believing that the most important problems affecting our society today could be solved within our lifetime. In my view, however, this is out of the question and the three most significant problems affecting the society, namely war, environmental destruction and disease, will still influence us and may not be entirely resolved forever. War is a problem afflicting humans since they took into being in the first place. Wars take place when different countries have conflicting benefits, which is unlikely to be eliminated as long as the boundaries between countries still exist. For instance, in the Middle East where water is extremely scarce, many countries are in conflict in contention for water resources. Since every country acts for the sake of its own benefit, it seems that people in the region are incapable of living together in harmony. Eternal world peace, therefore, is unlikely to be achieved in our lifetime. Environmental destruction emerged not long before but it is becoming increasingly severe and can not be ignored. With the large-scale utilization of fossil fuels and rapid development of industry, huge amounts of pollutants are being produced, contaminating the environment to a large degree. The disposal of these pollutants being a tough task, it is hardly possible that we can completely get rid of them within a short period of time. Furthermore, even if we can come up with optimal methods for dealing with these substances, there remains the problem that these methods may cost too much and obstruct the development of economy. Last but not least, the well-being of people around the world is threatened by a variety of diseases, ranging from AIDS to cancer, the cures for which have not been discovered yet. Diseases set off panics among humans, affect their normal life and leave people badly off with the high medical expenses. There are thousands of scientists devoting themselves to finding cure for diseases, but new types of diseases keep emerging and there is no eliminating all of them. In summary, the problems with the most significance today are going to be passed on to our offspring. To eliminate these problems thoroughly, there is still a long way to go.

2019年12月17日雅思大作文真题及范文 Task：Some people think getting old is entirely bad, but other people do think it’s much better for old people to live now than in the past. Please show your idea with explanation, examples and your knowledge. Sample answer： It has become a common phenomenon for people in a number of countries to enjoy an increasing life expectancy. While some people believe it is horrible just to imagine getting old , I think the situation has completely changed comparing to decades ago and now elderly people can lead a happy life. In some cases, the seniors do experience empty nest syndrome because their children are away from home. However, things are different nowadays. There are numerous residential homes with trained carers in a country and they have become a perfect place for the elderly to stay after retirement, where the elderly will not feel lonely and bored with the company of their peers. Another concern for numerous senior citizens is the health problem. In the past, without advanced medical science, the seniors tend to suffer from various kinds of diseases, which decrease their quality of life at great extent. By contrast, the medical science is developing at an amazing speed and this trend can at least delay the onset of some chronic conditions and with healthy body, the elderly can enjoy happier lives.
