2015年11月SAT写作考题八大话题预测太傻SAT考试频道小编为考生们带来2015年11月SAT写作考题八大话题预测，供备考参考，希望大家能抽时间看一下，万一运气好就考到了呢?话题一：追求完美与严要求Prompt 1People often focus on "the details," those seemingly minor features and elements that often have major effects or consequences. Whether they are making ordinary, everyday decisions, analyzing historical events, or enjoying the plot of a novel, many people consider the details to be all-important. Others, however, argue that paying attention to details distracts people from the big picture—perceiving an idea, goal, or plan in its entirety.Assignment: Is it a disadvantage to pay attention to details?Prompt 2Many people believe that one must care very deeply about something in order to do it well. Passionate commitment, they argue, is a characteristic of every great achiever in history. But caring very deeply about something can cloud one’s judgment and make it difficult to think clearly. More can be accomplished, in fact, with cool detachment. It is usually those who remain emotionally detached from their tasks who achieve the most.Assignment: Is it better to care deeply about something or to remain emotionally detached?Prompt 3Many people wish that there were fewer limits on their behavior. They believe that rules—such as those imposed by parents, teachers, coaches, employers, and governments—prevent them from being successful in the activities they undertake. Other people believe that rules assist them in becoming successful in their endeavors. They claim that rules provide guidance and help define what is expected. They even say that having too much freedom can be a burden.Assignment: Do rules interfere with or aid in the pursuit of success?话题二：流行文化Prompt 1Popular culture refers to television shows, movies, books, musical selections, artworks, products, activities, and events that appeal to the interests and desires of large numbers of people. Popular culture tells us a lot about the people of a society. Some people may criticize popular culture or deny its influence on their lives, but one thing is clear: popular culture typically displays the ideas and principles that people value most.Assignment: Are the values of a society most clearly revealed in its popular culture?Prompt 2Our culture puts entirely too much emphasis on popular entertainment. Of course, we all need to be distracted occasionally, but if we spend a lot of time browsing our favorite websites, watching television, playing video games, or updating our social networking accounts, we are merely avoiding life’s more important realities. Moreover, none of these activities helps us develop any of the skills or acquire any of the knowledge we need to succeed in the real world.Assignment: Can popular entertainment offer us anything of value, or is it just a worthless distraction?Prompt 3Many colleges now offer courses in which students study television programs, comic books, magazines, advertising, and other aspects of popular culture. Critics complain that schools should not replace serious literature and history courses with such fluff. They claim that courses in popular culture present material that is trivial and inconsequential. But the study of popular culture can be just as important, demanding, and instructive as the study of traditional subjects.Assignment: Can the study of popular culture be as valuable as the study of traditional literary and historical subjects?Prompt 4Young people are highly influenced by popular culture. They attempt to define themselves on the basis of what they see on television, in newspapers and magazines, and in the movies. In fact, young people accept the values of popular culture astheir own, believing that those values are central to their personal development and social acceptance.Assignment: Is popular culture the strongest influence on a young person's identity?话题三：安于现状Prompt 1Most people think that contentment—being happy with the way things are—is the perfect state of affairs. After all, what could be better than being so satisfied with how things are that you don't want anything else? But contentment has disadvantages: if we are content with the way things are, we are not motivated to change things, to improve ourselves, or to do better. We must therefore always choose between being content and pushing ourselves to do better.Assignment: Does being content with the way things are prevent people from improving themselves and doing better?Prompt 2Many people believe that it is important to plan ahead and to work toward an accomplishment that may take years to achieve, even if doing so means giving up immediate pleasures and fun. To these people, the end result of such an achievement is worth making sacrifices for in the present. Others, though, believe that it is much more important to focus on enjoying the present because it is impossible to predict what will happen in the future and because life’s joyful moments are so rare.Assignment: Should people focus on enjoying the present moment instead of following a plan for future achievement?话题四：坚持与变化Prompt 1We have been taught since childhood that it is wrong to quit. We learn that quitting is impulsive and easy and that we should always endeavor to keep trying, even if it is difficult. But aren’t there certain times when quitting is the right thing to do? In those instances, it takes great courage, maturity, and self-awarenessto acknowledge that the plan we have chosen may need to be changed or that a new plan should be adopted.Assignment: Is quitting ever a good idea?Prompt 2Being unwilling to change is often seen as a limitation. For example, a common accusation people often make in arguments is that the other person refuses to even consider taking new positions on issues. But being consistent is not always a bad thing. In fact, firmly supporting a position or point of view shows that one is stable and constant and does not change one's position whenever circumstances change. This consistency is far more important than a willingness to adjust one's thinking.Assignment: Is it more important to remain consistent than to change one's mind when circumstances change?Prompt 3Some people emphasize that strong leaders never depart from their goal, plan, or vision and that such dedication is, in fact, a measure of their strength. Others would argue, however, that strong leaders are flexible. Strong leaders know when to admit they have made a mistake and when it is appropriate to change their goal or mission. This flexibility shows their strength and the extent of their wisdom.Assignment: Is flexibility the sign of a strong and wise leader?话题五：创新与模仿Prompt 1A colleague of the great scientist James Watson remarked that Watson was always “lounging around, arguing about problems instead of doing experiments.” He concluded that “there is more than one way of doing good science.” It was Watson’s form of idleness, the scientist went on to say, that allowed him to solve “the greatest of all biological problems: the discovery of the structure of DNA.” It is a point worth remembering in a society overly concerned with efficiency.Adapted from John C. Polanyi, “Understanding Discovery”Assignment: Do people accomplish more when they are allowed to do things in their own way?Prompt 2Too often, people—especially young people, who may not have settled on a firm identity yet—try to imitate others, because it is easier to do so than to develop their own unique individuality. They focus on trying to imitate what seems attractive or desirable in others. But imitating others is never a good idea: when we imitate others, all we do is harm our ability to develop our own individuality.Assignment: Is imitation of others always harmful?Prompt 3People generally prefer originality to imitation, which is often considered inferior and second-rate. However, we have learned most of what we know by imitating others. Mastering any skill or gaining any knowledge means that we must learn from those who have gone before us. In fact, it is not until we have imitated others and learned from them what there is to know that we can strike out on our own and maybe create something new.Assignment: Is it necessary for people to imitate others before they can become original and creative?话题六：科技两面性Technology promises to make our lives easier, freeing up time for leisure pursuits. But the rapid pace of technological innovation and the split second processing capabilities of computers that can work virtually nonstop have made all of us feel rushed. We have adopted the relentless pace of the very machines that were supposed to simplify our lives, with the result that, whether at work or play, people do not feel like their lives have changed for the better.Assignment: Do changes that make our lives easier not necessarily make them better?话题七：快速决定 v.s. 三思而后行Prompt 1In decision making, we usually follow a reasoned process: weighing pros and cons, talking things over with a friend, and drawing on our past actions and experiences. In snap judgments—decisions that we make on the spot, with no reflection beforehand —we do not follow such a methodical decision-making process. Everything tells usthat relying on snap judgments is unwise. We make such decisions, however, because they ultimately work out better than decisions to which we give a lot of thought.Assignment: Are snap judgments better than decisions to which people give a lot of thought?Prompt 2From the time we are very young, we are cautioned to think before we speak. That is good advice if it helps us word our thoughts more clearly. But reflecting on what we are going to say before we say it is not a good idea if doing so causes us to censor our true feelings because others might not like what we say. In fact, if we always worried about others' reactions before speaking, it is possible none of us would ever say what we truly mean.Assignment: Should we always think before we speak?话题八：合作与团队Prompt 1Many thoughtful people have said that cooperation brings out the best in people and leads to success in almost all endeavors. There is a limit, however, to the value of cooperative behavior, since such behavior may suppress people’s willingness to be creative and to stand out from the crowd. Too often, cooperating means going along with the group even if that is not necessarily the best way.Assignment: Does working with others lead to better results than acting as an individual?Prompt 2People who like to think of themselves as tough-minded and realistic tend to take it for granted that human nature is “selfish” and that life is a struggle in which only the fittest may survive. According to this view, the basic law by which people must live is the law of the jungle. The “fittest” are those people who can bring to the struggle superior force, superior cunning, and superior ruthlessness.Assignment: Do people have to be highly competitive in order to succeed?原文地址：/sat/news/2015/1104/20201.htmlSAT培训：/sat/。

雅思写作12个经典题第一篇：雅思写作12个经典题1环保：Environmental problems cannot be solved by one or a few countries.Instead, they should be solved with international effort.T o what extent do you agree or disagree?+1 many environmental problems are widespread that they can hardly be confined to one single country or region, such as oil spills and dust storms.It is crucial that these problems be solved with international efforts.Each country and person should be made aware of their unique role in environmental protection.+2 The second reason why international joint efforts are needed to solve environmental problems is that each country has its own weakness in environmental protection.For example, although industrialised countries possess advanced technology and more financial resources for environmental protection, some of them do not want to address the problem of emission-induced climate change because they are afraid that reducing industrial and vehicle carbon emissions will slow down their industrial production and make their people’s lives less comfortable or convenient.Thus, other nations and international organisations have their roles to play in ensuring that industrialised countries fulfil their environmental responsibilities.--1 involve many practical issues;different views on environmental problems;difficult to achieve international consensus;unwillingness to sacriface at the economic benefits…转折： the willingness to coperate with each other at least will put them on the right track to finding solutions.政府-城市：As the number of cars increases, more money has to be spenton the road system.Some people think that the government should pay for this.Others, however, think that car users should pay for the costs.Discuss both these views and give your own ernment:+1 collect the tax money from the public.It is its responsibility to build the roads for the usage of the public / The government should use part of its tax revenue to meet taxpayers’ needs for better road transport systems.+ 1 improving the infrastructure will contribute to the local economic development by attracting investment or bringing about business opportunties / Improving the road transport system is crucial to the economic growth of a country + 1 It helps the government to allocate valuable resources to different bureaus and the public.road users:1)the fund / financial aid/ grants/ appropriation/ from government is limited;collect tolls from road users as they benefit from the service directly / if the government does not have sufficient funds for the construction or expansion of the road.2)ensure the proper usage of the road/ the public transport service.if offer free service to the road users, leads to increasing amount of traffic;be misused;-----Combine two approaches / practice旅游：The tourist industry has been expanding in some countries and international tourism has benefited these countries.To what extent do you agree or disagree?Benefits1）promote economic development---the sales of tickets, airlines, retail industry, and hospitality industry contribute to local economy 2）spread cultural elements;3）urge the government to protect the cultural heritage and environmental protectionDrawbacks：1）misunderstanding may cause cultural conflicts and disputes 2)cause environmental problems due to litters thrown by crowds of visitors;damage to the natural views and cultural tourism attractions文化：Some people think that the government should financially support art programmes.T o what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?Benefits: 1)+ art education are highly appreciation by the public;be integral part of education system: improve aesthetic appreation;stimulate creativity and imagination2）+ be helpful to reduce stress level of the public;be benefical to the mental health of the general public3）+ music, as an expanding industry, is an important source of government’s revenue4）+ build national image;spread cultural elements;preserve cultural heritage/build national honor and belonging 5）+ enrich leisure time and add pleasing experience to life Drawbacks:1)_ be money consuming.For some developing countries where people are living in poverty, the government should fund public welfare, such as education and public health instead of art programs.2)Cause corruption in some government’s bureaus （对比题：Many countries spend a lot of money in art.Some people think investment in art is necessary, but others say money is better spent public services and facilities.Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.）艺术应该被投资比public services and facilities更值得投资让步public services and facilities投资很重要科技Nowadays, distance-learning programs have gained in popularity(those teaching programmes that involve the use of written materials, video, television and the Internet), but some people argue that courses can never be taken as good as those by attending a college or university in person.T o what extent do you agree or disagree?远程教育不如学校学习1)better learning environment at school help children be concentrated on their studies.They are likely to achieve better academic performance.2)Foster mental and physical development through communication with peers and teachers and comprehensive extra-curricular.3)Apart academic achievements, teachers will help the students form a good learning habit, build confidence, independent and be aware with their progress timely.Online： online learning offers convenience, flexibility,(灵活性)，a wider range of learning resources 犯罪Detailed description of crimes on newspaper and TV can have bad consequences on society, so this kind of information should be restricted限制in the media.To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?同意限制 1）indifferent2）have negative effects on children’s pschological health;youngsters are likely to imitate these offensive behaviours, in the mistaken belief that these offences do not have serious effects.Even worse, many young viewers even perceive criminalsas idols or role models and adopt violent means to settle their conflicts with other people./ It is sometimes feared that extensive media coverage of crime can cause a surge in copycat crimes.3）cause fears from the public / They are preoccupied with the idea that they are at a higher risk of victimisation./ The representation of crime in the media reminds people that dangers can strike at any time or location while life is tenuous.4）hurt the feeling of victims and their families / violate offenders’privacy5）This has an adverse impact on their quality of life.让步1)Despite the negative effect of media coverage of crime, it should not be censored.2)Representation of crime in the media can raise people’s awareness of self-defense and prevention.3)This is due to the fact that representation of crime in the media can raise people’s awa reness of self-defense and also remind them about prevention.Deter the potential criminals Provide first-hand information to the public----in light of these factors, in order to reduce the negative effects of crime reporting, we should curtail it in the media.媒体-广告Advertising discourages us from being different individuals and makes us look the same.Do you agree or disagree?Make us look the same V.S.do not make us look the same + associate products and social status /lifestyle;iphones;UNIQLO Some advertisements aim to persuade people that using the advertised products or services can make them healthier or better-looking Some other

proportion of older people is steadily increasing.Does this trend have positive or negative effects on society?老龄化的优势V.S.老龄化的劣势劣势：+ lack of labour force;be less competitive and innovative/ be

of customs of minority cultures;dialects —strengthen familiy ties;be helpful in raising grandchildren and share chorework for their adult children 教育It is generally believed that some people are born with certain talents, for instance sport or music, and others are not.However, it is sometimes claimed that any child can be taught to become a good sports person or musician.Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.Talents + the achievement made by the talents in certain fields can never be comparable by others;For example Mozart / Talents help some students to develop skills that allow them to become outstanding while morehard-working students never manage to reach a comparable level.+ many top talents have not received any formal training or guidance + ideas, inspirations are more crucial and valuable in all walks of life, such as art performance or sport field.An average child也可以+ everyone makes progress through guided practice and continuous teaching / we can find plenty of

depend on mental attitudes.Discuss both these views and give your own opinions.身体强健：+some believe that only the fittest and strongest participants can achieve success in sports competition.This belief is based on the understanding of sports as purely physical activities and the fact that the results of sports cometitions are often determined by the strength, speed, endurance, flexibility or balance that participants display.+ it is the objective comparisions of participants’ performance according to these criteria that make many sports competitions worthwhile and fair.This is particularly true of individual sports such as swimming, track and field and weightlifting.心态决定：_ stamina-based sports such as cross-country cycling and triathlon are so demanding that even participants in the best physical condition need strong willpower to carry themselves through the competition and win.Without enough preserverance,a competitor would give up beofre the end of the race.工作An increasing number of people change their careers and places of residence several times in their lives.Is this a positive or a negative trend?benefits + enrich life experience;add excitement and joys in life;/ are more

importance on whether the job suits their interests and talents Consider the salary that a job offers.动物 Some people think it is necessary to use animals for testing medicines or othe products intended for huamn use.Others, however, criticise this as animal cruelty.Discuss both of these views and give your own opinion.支持：+ scientists agree with the view that animals are irreplaceable in those scientific experiments which can develop new drugs and test the security of products.+ the main explanation is that animals bear a resemblance to humans in many aspects, such as cell structure.+ findings from animal testing can be used topredict human beings’ responses in similar circumstances, so researchers can decide whether the drug can be applied on human beings.反对--it is important to note that using humans to research is prohiibted by many countries because of on moral grounds.--Although we have reasons to believe that animal testing is necessary, it does not mean that we can deny animal right.--It is increasingly acknowledged that animals used in experiments normally suffer from pain and hurt, because animals abuse happens frequently.--It is also common knowledge that animals are sentinent beings and capable of feeling pain.第二篇：雅思写作真题雅思写作真题范文赏析：满分篇满分的雅思大作文到底有何神奇之处，因为作文要想得满分那是几率非常小的事，下面为大家分享的这篇雅思真题写作范文，既然是满分，那么一定有大家可借鉴之处了原题再现：You should spend about 40 minutes on this task.Write about the following topic:Successful sports professionals can earn a great deal more money than people in other important professions.Some people think this is fully justified while others think it is unfair.Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.Write at least 250 words.考官范文：As a result of constant media attention, sports professionals in my country have become stars and celebrities, and those at the top are paid huge salaries.Just like movie stars, they live extravagantlifestyles with huge houses and cars.Many people find their rewards unfair, especially when comparingthese super salaries with those of top surgeons or research scientists, or even leading politicians who have the responsibilityof governing the country.However, sports salaries are not determined by considering the contribution to society a person makes, or the level of responsibility he or she holds.Instead, they reflect the public popularity of sport in general and the level of public support that successful stars can generate.So the notion of ‘fairness’ is not the issue.Those who feel that sports stars’ salaries are justified might argu e that the number of professionals with real talent are very few, and the money is a recognition of the skills and dedication a person needs to be petition is constant and a player is tested every time they perform.in their relatively short career.The pressure from the media is intense and there is little privacy out of the spotlight.So all of thesefactors may justify the huge earnings.Personally, I think that the amount of money such sports stars make is more justified than the huge earnings of movie stars, but at the same time, it indicatesthat our society places more value on sport than on more essential professions and achievements.参考翻译：在媒体不断地推波助澜下，我国的许多职业运动员已成为了明星和名人。

剑桥雅思15 test2 写作task2
摘要：
1.问题背景和概述
2.论证支持观点的理由
3.反驳反对观点的理由
4.总结观点和结论
正文：
【提纲】
1.问题背景和概述
随着全球化的发展，越来越多的国际学生选择到国外留学。

在这个过程中，有一部分人认为留学生涯对个人的成长和发展有着极大的促进作用，而另一部分人则认为留学生涯所带来的负面影响不容忽视。

本文将就这一话题展开讨论，并阐述我个人观点。

2.论证支持观点的理由
首先，留学生涯有利于个人的成长和发展。

在全球范围内，不同国家的教育体系和教学方法都有所不同。

留学生在国外学习，可以接触到多元化的教育理念，拓宽自己的视野。

此外，在国外学习生活，学生还需要独立面对生活中的种种困难，如语言沟通、文化适应等。

这些经历有助于培养个人的独立思考能力和解决问题的能力，从而促进个人的成长。

3.反驳反对观点的理由
虽然留学生涯有很多优点，但也不能忽视它所带来的负面影响。

一方面，
留学费用高昂，很多家庭负担不起。

这导致一些学生为了支付学费和生活费而承受巨大的压力，甚至影响到他们的身心健康。

另一方面，留学生在国外生活，可能会遇到思念家人、朋友以及适应新环境的挑战，这些压力可能导致心理健康问题。

4.总结观点和结论
综上所述，留学生涯在很大程度上有助于个人的成长和发展。

尽管它也存在一定的负面影响，但通过合理安排和积极应对，这些问题是可以克服的。

A. Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay based on the picture below. You should start your essay with a brief description of the picture and then give your comments. Write your essay on Answer Sheet 1. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.In the picture above, two men shake hands with both saying “it‟s my fault”. We can infer that their cooperation will be continued and connections be closer after they acknowledge their mistakes actively. The inference is grounded in the following two points.Firstly, acknowledging our mistakes actively represents a kind of attitude which indicates that we have realized the mistakes and we will be responsible for it. Such an attitude can, to some extent, mitigate the consequences our mistakes have incurred. S econdly, when we say “sorry, it‟s my fault” to our partners or to the person involved with our mistakes, they will forget the harm or loss our mistakes bring them and will continue cooperation and connection with us because they regard that we can shoulder the responsibility. Otherwise, we will leave a bad impression on them.All in all, it is not embarrassed to acknowledge our mistakes. Instead, acknowledging our mistakes actively reflects our responsible attitude and can leave a good impressions on others.【高分表达】We can infer that their cooperation will be continued and connections be closer... 我们可以推断他们会继续合作，联系会更紧密……The inference is grounded in the following two points. 推断基于以下两点。

结尾段：总结上文，重申立场。

In recent years, the prevalence of computer games has exerted a significant effect on children’s life. As to whether they affect children negatively, there is an endless debate.Despite the fact that playing computer games is an effective way to relieve pressure, the problems associated with study and health cannot be neglected.Clearly, playing computer games is regarded as a main factor leading to poor academic performance. With the entertaining nature, computer games will easily distract children from their studious pursuits. With the passage of time, children will probably fall behind their peers in academic development. In addition, when children spend too much time playing computer games, they are less likely to participate in physical activities, which is one reason why many children suffer from obesity. As a result, these overweight children’s confidence may be undermined and their health may be negatively influence as well.Despite these disadvantages, the advantages can still not be ignored. First of all, the latest research shows that game-playing helps children to home their communication and interpersonal skills. In many cases, players work together in teams to achieve goals, competing against other players. Therefore, their social skills and teamwork spirit are put to the test. Also, computer games can have positive and therapeutic effects on players. Games provide an opportunity for children to decompress and tune out of strains and stresses of everyday life. Giving their time to rest is critical for emotional and mental well-being.In conclusion, it is not advisable for children to play computer games, for the reasons that it not only has a negative impact on their study, but also makes them lose confidence, although computer games provide a form of relaxation.题目类别政府提问方式A/D考试题目Some people think governments should focus on reducing environmental pollution and housing problems to help people prevent illness and disease. To what extent do you agree or disagree?分析：题目的类型属于单一观点的讨论。

2015年11月7日雅思阅读预测—外朗教育British Architecture 英国建筑2大家对于该篇文章有什么问题，请直接回复提问；作者或原创教师将第一时间解答。

28 woodAnd although the Anglo-Saxons had a sophisticated building style of their own, little sruvives to bear withness to their achievements as the vast majority of Anglo-Saxon buildings were made of wood.29 status and wealthIn a sense, the buildings of the 16th centrury were also governed by fitness for purpose-only now, the purpose was very different. In domestic architecture, in particular, buildings were used to display status and wealth.注意空格前成分represents与文中B段最后一句中display替换，所以答案是status and wealth。

30 expensive commodityThe rooms themselves tended to be bigger and lighter-as an expensive commodity, the use of great expanses of glass was in itself a statement of wealth.答案说的是glass是一种贵的东西，不是房间。

31 classicalWith the exception of Inigo Jones(1573-1652), whose confident handling of classical detail and proportion set him apart from all other architects of the period, most early 17th century buildings tended to take the innocent exuberance of late Tudor work one step further.31题，认真断下原文的句子，你会发现detail and proportion是一起的。

2015年11月14/15日托福听力预测---外朗教育1 history of technology.自行车。

先说了上节课说的骑车，然后说人力的horseless 的车子，就是自行车。

有题问教授觉得那个发明者怎么样。

说用蒸汽的机器太大太笨重，后来有石油之后改善。

（正题开始)然后讲一个人先发明了一个4轮子的东西，女生问：那不是很好嘛?老实说，不好，因为太笨重了（跟蒸汽机一样，有题），而且全用人力，人家会觉得主人太懒了（有题) 有争议。

后来改善成两个轮子的(还是人力没有踏板），但还是不行，在本地受欢迎，但是法国没人喜欢，因为只能再硬的地上而且太硬。

后来那个人很执着(有题），把它改成健身用品，还是不受欢迎，因为太重太贵。

2 一个男的说他在student center(不太确定是学校里的什么center)帮忙后才发现art相关的活动在学校这么受欢迎，他即将要带同学去NYC看展览，而且他室友的昼也在这个展览里展出，觉得很荣幸能认识这么厉害的人。

他想要在出发前的最后一刻提出一个改变，他觉得有一个由原来的货运火车废弃后改造的公园(High-Line)特别好（不确定是否有说到跟art有关），想带学生们去走这个公园（考题有考这个公园的特色，四选二）。

但是老师说不是所有人都想走这么远，如果男的带学生走High-Line，那想坐bus的学生也得有人带。

最后老师说她其实以前在NYC待过，虽然是很久以前的事，但应该还是知道相关地理方位（就是知道怎么带的意思），然后说她可以帮这个男的带学生坐bus3 大概是说Cowboy poetry的来由，就是一群cowboy累了一整天后聚在一起唱个小曲吟个诗，然后说这些诗的主题，大概就是每天干的那些活，happy啊，friendship什么的。

后来城市跨张占了cowboy的领域，这些诗歌里面有加了关于环境和评论的内容，后面说到cowboy poetry和ballad的关系。

并且cowboy poetry特别喜欢用奇怪的词。
