雅思写作可谓是有难度的写作,如果我们不好好的准备的话,相信这对很多人来说又是一个难关。因为我们经历了四六级的考试,经历了考研英语的测试,我们最终才会走上考雅思的道路。当然雅思写作和别的都不一样,是有一定的难度的。所以,按照下面的方法备考,才是最完美的。

  Step1:了解背景信息

  学生要根据题干信息扩大范围进行适当联想,然后再根据核心话题来扣住题目回答问题。

  比如真题(2013.11.09):

  The environment problems facing today's world are so great that there is little ordinary people can do to improve the situation. Government and large companies should be responsible for reducing the amount of damage being done to the environment. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

  根据上题题干中给出的background information背景信息扩大范围进行适当联想:环境问题非常严重,个别普通人已经无力改善。当下环境问题有全球变暖、酸雨、能源短缺、土地荒漠化、物种加速灭绝、垃圾成灾、有毒化学品污染等众多方面。然后再根据核心话题,围绕“政府和大公司应该负责减少环境污染”这个话题来写整篇文章。政府和大公司财力充足可以高效改善问题;政府和大公司有责任弥补为提高GDP而造成的环境污染;但是个人也可以从小事做起积少成多。

  Step2:确定文章写法

  1. 折中式:

  写法特点:适当让步,讨论正反两面。

  适合人群:对于英文基础一般的学生来说,折中式更加客观,也容易写够字数,而且剑桥真题写作答案也都是折中式。

  对应考题举例:

  In some countries young people are encouraged to work or travel for a year between finishing high school and starting university studies. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages for young people who decide to do this.

  People are surrounded by advertising and there is an increasing effect on our lives. Do you think the positive effects outweigh the negative effects?

  2. 一边倒:

  写法特点:直陈观点,只说正面或反面。

  适合人群:对于英文功底特别好的学生来说,完全支持或者完全反对的一边倒可以让文章更加充实更加犀利。

  对应考题举例:

  Some people think women should be allowed to join the army, the navy and the air force just like men. What is your opinion?

  Some people think that police officers carrying guns will increase the violent crime rate. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

  考生可以根据自己的观点,自行选择折中或者一边倒的方法。

  Step3:组织文章结构

  1. Argument(辩论类):

  辩论类题目占到所有题目的75%-85%,出题目的是让考生辩论观点或权衡利弊,并且考察学生是否能够自圆其说提供充分论据。

  典型提问方式:Discuss both (these) views and give your own opinion. (To what extent) Do you agree or disagree? (To what extent) Do you think the advantages/ benefits outweigh the disadvantages/ drawbacks? What is your opinion/ view?/ What do you think?

  文章结构应如何组织:可以写成折中式,也可以写成一边倒。在折中式结构中,开头段可以用2-4句话介绍背景信息,讨论话题,改写题目,陈述观点;主体段可以论述你所倾向的那一方,提供第一第二第三个分论点,并且给出对应的详细解释;让步段论述自己不太倾向的那一方,提供一个或两个分论点,再反驳不合理之处;结尾段用2-3句话总结观点,重申分论点。在一边倒结构中,开头段可以用2-4句话介绍背景信息,讨论话题,改写题目,陈述观点;主体段可以论述你所倾向的那一方,提供第一第二第三个分论点,并且给出对应的详细解释;无需让步段直接用结尾段总结观点,重申分论点。
