【雅思考官】1周雅思备考建议 聚焦雅思写作
IELTS Writing Task 2: the problem with 'difficult' language
A.雅思大作文:关于“高级”语言的问题
One of the main messages that I try to communicate in my lessons is that 'difficult' words and grammar are not the secret to a high score. You don't need to be Shakespeare to get band 7, 8 or 9!
In fact, 'difficult' language often has a negative effect on people's scores. Instead of impressing the examiner, the 'difficult' language may be unnatural, inappropriate, or just incorrect.
【翻译并解读】simon反复重申,高级词汇语法并不是雅思作文高分的秘诀。不是只有到了莎士比亚级别的用词水平才能拿下7分,8分乃至9分。不是说高级词汇语法用在写作上不好,问题是高回报意味着高风险。很多人的作文中的这些所谓的高级用法往往用得别扭,不当甚至错误,所以不但对拿下高分没有帮助,反而是祸害了整个文章。
Look at these examples from Sunday's lesson. I've underlined the words that I think the students hoped would impress the examiner.
看看下面2句得不偿失的炫技表达
1. If schools administered with any teachers, disorder and lawlessness would arise.
2. If uncensored commercials had been banned, the crime rate would be seized from rising.
All of the underlined 'difficult' words are either used wrongly or they seem strange in these contexts. It would be better to write the following versions:
这些词汇要么使用错误,要么与语境不搭!看看如果修改。
1. If schools were run without teachers, the behaviour of pupils would be much worse.
2. If violent commercials were banned, the crime rate would fall.
IELTS Writing Task 2: advice for different scores
B:对雅思写作不同目标分数的建议
Depending on what scores my students are aiming for, I give different advice.
If you are aiming for band 5, 5.5 or 6:
对目标是band 5, 5.5 or 6的烤鸭
You can reach band 6 with fairly 'easy' language if your essay structure is good, your ideas are relevant to the question topic, and you write at least 250 words. Look through the writing task 2 lessons on this website to learn how to write introductions, main paragraphs and conclusions, and work on writing short, simple sentences to express your ideas.
When people get band 5 or below, it is often because they don't finish their essays, they go off-topic, they have no idea about good essay structure, or they try to use 'difficult' language and therefore make lots of mistakes. For bands 5 to 6, keep your essays simple and clear.
【翻译并解读】想到6,只要使用相对简明的语言,合理的文章结构,观点不要跑题,字数复合要求。要学会基本的导入,主体,结论的写法,要学会尽量用简短明了的句子表达观点。
If you are aiming for band 7 or higher:
对目标是7+的烤鸭来说
First, you need to do everything that I mentioned above: you need relevant ideas, a good essay structure, and you must write at least 250 words.
But to reach the higher scores, your essays need more 'depth'. You need to explain your ideas in more detail, using a wider range of vocabulary. At this level,good essay structure is not enough, and memorised linking phrases won't help either. Your focus should be on real content.
【翻译并解读】首先,你需要做到上述所提到的一切,这是基础。之外,你的文章需要“深度”,你需要更详实地解释你的观点,使用更为丰富的词汇。在这个7+层面上,好的文章结构远远不够,记再多的连接词也是无济于事。你的着重点应该在于“有料”。
综上,如果把雅思写作看成是练武。那么像模板,高分词句等等一切外在的形式都是招式,而详实有见地的观点和逻辑周全的论证才是内功。祝雅思写作早日学有所成,祝早日与雅思分手。
雅思写作解题思路之资历重要还是社交技能重要
Some employers are giving more importance to people of good social skills, while others think good qualifications are more important. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.现提供本篇雅思写作解题思路供大家参考。
雅思写作解题思路之支持前者
Qualification equals ability to a large extent, and expertise generally determines the quality of service, e.g. doctors, programmers, engineers, etc.
Some may say a few people without qualification can also become useful talents. But to ensure the efficiency of recruitment, e.g. those held by large scale enterprises, conducting employment based on the qualifications of candidates is proven advisable, especially in the first round.
雅思写作解题思路之支持后者
In achieving many objectives, qualification cannot promise anything at all. For example, all managers have to be effective in communication and persuasion, which has little to do with their qualifications. Also, many job positions require excellent interpersonal skills, e.g. marketing, sales, business negotiation, etc. In those cases, degrees are virtually useless while experience bear much more weight.
Modern projects are often so complicated and challenging that instead of individual talents, excellent teamwork is more crucial. Therefore, knowing how to cooperate, i.e. a strong sense of cooperation is more helpful to both employees and companies.
雅思写作解题思路之更看重老人还是更看重年轻人
In some cultures elderly people are highly valued, while in some other cultures youth are more valued. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
支持前者
Old people are boasted of their experience and wisdom in handling complex situation. 公 司是否应该让老年员工退休以给年轻人机会 ;政府重要职位是否由年轻人担当好 不好 ; 老龄化社会利弊; 年轻人失业(老年人的优点就是年轻人的缺点 ); 政府 资助年轻人

Old people have encountered the twists and turns of life, and are hence more responsible and even-‐tempered (稳重的). Whereas, the younger generation is normally considered immature. 公司是否应该让老年员工退休以给年轻人机会;政府重要职位是否由 年轻人担当好不好 ;老龄化社会利弊 ;年轻人失 业(老年人的优点就是年轻人的 缺点 ); 政府资助年轻人
In many countries, the well-‐rounded welfare system has spoiled young people: the absence of living pressure leads to the immaturity of the youth (lack social responsibilities), resulting to prevalent adolescent misbehaviour, e.g. hatred to school, inadequate work skills, drinking under legal age, taking drugs, passive life attitude, and even anti-‐social behaviors such as
the riot in England last year. 公司是否应该让老年员工退休以给年轻人机会 ;年轻人
厌学; 年轻人失业(老年人的优点就是年轻人的缺点 ); 年轻人犯罪; 政府资助 年轻人;反社会行为
支持后者
Young people are more energetic and efficient, being able to take painstaking works of the society. In fact, the sound development of the younger generation can guarantee (确保) a
promising prospect (前景) of a country. 公司是否应该让老年员工退休以给年轻人机 会;政府重要职位是否由年轻人担当好不好; 政府资助年轻人

When it comes to the cost of employment, young people are more economical to companies, because to them, the opportunity of development far outweighs salaries. 公司 是否应该让老年员工退休以给年轻人机会 ;政府重要职位是否由年轻人担当好不 好; 政府资助年轻人
The ageing of society is a sticky issue: many governments had to up the retirement age because of the limited budget for pension, and entered a vicious circle (恶性循环), in which old people are forced to compete with the younger generation for the few openings, inevitably causing unemployment. 公司是否应该让老年员工退休以给年轻人机会; 老龄化社会利弊

雅思写作解题思路之人们过度消费对社会造成的影响
Nowadays, people like to throw away damaged things and buy new ones while people in the past would always reuse them by repair. To what extent do you agree or disagree that this is a negative trend?
支持正方 人们过度消费对社会造成的影响
The behaviour of throwing exhausts resources and triggers all sorts of pollution.
People with such habit are leading a wasteful life, which will result into unhealthy trend of life.
Those who keep buying will form a psychology of comparison and will even become shopping maniac.
The habit of reuse is environmentally friendly, and goes along with the idea of low carbon life.
As well as saving money, repairing improves people’s surviving skills.
A healthy mood of satisfaction can be maintained when one repairs a lot and makes only necessary purchase.
The habit of repeating consumption will probably attract sizeable social resources to production. If this became true, we would find ourselves in great difficulty, because repair
work would then be in short supply, and poor people would not be able to afford it, which would further induce an instable society.
