雅思考試的提問(wèn)方法和布局

作文是許多雅思考生心中永遠(yuǎn)的痛，凱德雅思提出“十篇作文搞定雅思六分”(以下稱“十篇”)幫助許多學(xué)生實(shí)現(xiàn)了有效率的提高寫作水平和分?jǐn)?shù)。

教學(xué)方法的革新永遠(yuǎn)是學(xué)生的福音，作為新穎的教學(xué)方法，“十篇”教學(xué)法的第一階 段是扎實(shí)基礎(chǔ)，通過(guò)專門的寫作詞匯整理學(xué)習(xí)，結(jié)構(gòu)、技巧、論證的方法掌握了解，和閱讀有效的范圍，每個(gè)學(xué)生都能夠得到長(zhǎng)足的進(jìn)步，當(dāng)然一切的前提是有效，所有的基礎(chǔ)工作都是建立在凱德教研組研究的基礎(chǔ)上，學(xué)生所學(xué)習(xí)的內(nèi)容都是最新最有效的部分，這種效率的工作讓不少學(xué)生克服了作文的病痛，取得了高分。

當(dāng)然，在正式練習(xí)寫作的階段，不同基礎(chǔ)的學(xué)生將在老師的指導(dǎo)下完成不同主題、不同篇幅的文章，這些文章都是經(jīng)過(guò)嚴(yán)格的篩選，由于每次考試的預(yù)測(cè)內(nèi)容不同，每個(gè)班級(jí)的學(xué)生拿到的文章甚至略有不同。通過(guò)典型性文章的寫作練習(xí)，也就是說(shuō)寫文章很有可能就是即將考到的文章，學(xué)生掌握每種文章的方法，也學(xué)習(xí)了舉一反三的能力，就能夠輕松應(yīng)對(duì)雅思作文考試。

那么2006年究竟考什么？學(xué)生要注意什么？在本篇中，我做一個(gè)大致的勾勒，具體考試內(nèi)容預(yù)測(cè)還要在每場(chǎng)考試之前。

不變應(yīng)萬(wàn)變 無(wú)招勝有招

先了解一下雅思寫作題目要求，IELTS寫作的題目一般分成兩部分：話題和提問(wèn)。

比如：Scientific and technological advances have produced many benefits as well as problems in our daily lives. However, most scientists in the world are no longer able to find the solutions of the problems they have created. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion. Give your reasons.

前兩句是話題，最后兩句是提問(wèn)。話題部分主要告訴考生寫作的內(nèi)容；而提問(wèn)部分則影響文章的結(jié)構(gòu)，不同的提問(wèn)方式會(huì)有不同的文章結(jié)構(gòu)，根據(jù)這些不同的提問(wèn)方法，一般的情況，我總結(jié)為以下的幾種，并且羅列了相應(yīng)的文章布局：

I.Discuss

Eg: 2005年7月9日

Some people think the government should pay for health care and education, but other people do not think it the government’s responsibility. Discuss both and give your opinion.

應(yīng)對(duì)文章布局：這種文章一般寫四段：首段表明不同的人有不同的觀點(diǎn)；正文段要寫兩段，一段寫正方，一段寫反方；結(jié)尾段總結(jié)一下并表明自己的觀點(diǎn)。

II. Advantages and Disadvantages

Eg: 2005年5月14日

Some school leavers go to travel or work for a period of time instead of going directly to university. What are the advantages and disadvantages for their studies?

應(yīng)對(duì)文章布局：這種文章一般也寫四段：首段表明既有好處

又有壞處；正文段分別說(shuō)明其好處和壞處；最后總結(jié)一下。

III. Agree or Disagree

Eg: 2005年6月25日

People think that the news media has influenced people’s lives nowadays, and it is a negative development. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

應(yīng)對(duì)文章布局：這種文章有兩種寫法：1。一邊倒的寫法；2。兩面寫(即同意的理由和不同意的理由)。

IV. Your Opinion

Eg: 2005年3月5日

Some academic subjects are useful for children’s future career while others such as music and sports are not so useful. What is your opinion. Give your reasons.

應(yīng)對(duì)文章布局：這種文章一般寫5段：首段表明觀點(diǎn)；正文段分3段分別舉出3個(gè)理由來(lái)證明自己的觀點(diǎn)；最后總結(jié)一下。

V. Problem, Reasons and Solutions

Eg: 2005年1月22日

Statistics suggest that nowadays an increasing number of crimes are committed by the young people. Explain the reasons for this and give solutions.

應(yīng)對(duì)文章布局：這種文章一般寫四段：首段分析現(xiàn)象；正文段分兩段交代造成這種現(xiàn)象的原因；最后給出2-3個(gè)解決方法。

這是雅思考試五種最基本需要了解的提問(wèn)方法類型，學(xué)生一定要學(xué)會(huì)判斷類型，再根據(jù)類型迅速反應(yīng)出相應(yīng)的文章布局和結(jié)構(gòu)。這個(gè)基礎(chǔ)是無(wú)論雅思考試如何變化，學(xué)生都必須了解的常識(shí)。

三種�？荚掝}


作文是許多雅思考生心中永遠(yuǎn)的痛，凱德雅思提出“十篇作文搞定雅思六分”(以下稱“十篇”)幫助許多學(xué)生實(shí)現(xiàn)了有效率的提高寫作水平和分?jǐn)?shù)。

教學(xué)方法的革新永遠(yuǎn)是學(xué)生的福音，作為新穎的教學(xué)方法，“十篇”教學(xué)法的第一階 段是扎實(shí)基礎(chǔ)，通過(guò)專門的寫作詞匯整理學(xué)習(xí)，結(jié)構(gòu)、技巧、論證的方法掌握了解，和閱讀有效的范圍，每個(gè)學(xué)生都能夠得到長(zhǎng)足的進(jìn)步，當(dāng)然一切的前提是有效，所有的基礎(chǔ)工作都是建立在凱德教研組研究的基礎(chǔ)上，學(xué)生所學(xué)習(xí)的內(nèi)容都是最新最有效的部分，這種效率的工作讓不少學(xué)生克服了作文的病痛，取得了高分。

當(dāng)然，在正式練習(xí)寫作的階段，不同基礎(chǔ)的學(xué)生將在老師的指導(dǎo)下完成不同主題、不同篇幅的文章，這些文章都是經(jīng)過(guò)嚴(yán)格的篩選，由于每次考試的預(yù)測(cè)內(nèi)容不同，每個(gè)班級(jí)的學(xué)生拿到的文章甚至略有不同。通過(guò)典型性文章的寫作練習(xí)，也就是說(shuō)寫文章很有可能就是即將考到的文章，學(xué)生掌握每種文章的方法，也學(xué)習(xí)了舉一反三的能力，就能夠輕松應(yīng)對(duì)雅思作文考試。

那么2006年究竟考什么？學(xué)生要注意什么？在本篇中，我做一個(gè)大致的勾勒，具體考試內(nèi)容預(yù)測(cè)還要在每場(chǎng)考試之前。

在說(shuō)完了寫作提問(wèn)部分的規(guī)律后，就該談一下話題部分的情況了。寫作部分雖然出題很靈活，但總結(jié)起來(lái)，有3種話題在考試中經(jīng)常出現(xiàn)，這里舉一些2005年的例子，希望學(xué)生重視這些題材和內(nèi)容：

事實(shí)上，以上三種話題幾乎已經(jīng)占據(jù)了全部考題的一半，其重要性實(shí)在不容忽視！而我們也看到了雖然是同一個(gè)話題，但是內(nèi)容卻差別很大，我們通過(guò)了解這些話題只能了解雅思的出題關(guān)注重點(diǎn)，那么我們平時(shí)在復(fù)習(xí)的時(shí)候就要關(guān)注積累相關(guān)的例證，因?yàn)?6年的變化趨勢(shì)是對(duì)于論據(jù)的要求明顯提高了。另外，一切文章圍繞一個(gè)主題，一些例證和語(yǔ)言組織方法是可以“一個(gè)中心，幾手準(zhǔn)備”的，也就是可以根據(jù)不同主題靈活的將已經(jīng)掌握的文章變成題目要求的文章，這種技巧在凱德雅思的課堂中會(huì)重點(diǎn)練習(xí)。

2006年作文命題要求改變

作文是許多雅思考生心中永遠(yuǎn)的痛，凱德雅思提出“十篇作文搞定雅思六分”(以下稱“十篇”)幫助許多學(xué)生實(shí)現(xiàn)了有效率的提高寫作水平和分?jǐn)?shù)。

教學(xué)方法的革新永遠(yuǎn)是學(xué)生的福音，作為新穎的教學(xué)方法，“十篇”教學(xué)法的第一階段是扎實(shí)基礎(chǔ)，通過(guò)專門的寫作詞匯整理學(xué)習(xí)，結(jié)構(gòu)、技巧、論證的方法掌握了解，和閱讀有效的范圍，每個(gè)學(xué)生都能夠得到長(zhǎng)足的進(jìn)步，當(dāng)然一切的前提是有效，所有的基礎(chǔ)工作都是建立在凱德教研組研究的基礎(chǔ)上，學(xué)生所學(xué)習(xí)的內(nèi)容都是最新最有效的部分，這種效率的工作讓不少學(xué)生克服了作文的病痛，取得了高分。

當(dāng)然，在正式練習(xí)寫作的階段，不同基礎(chǔ)的學(xué)生將在老師的指導(dǎo)下完成不同主題、不同篇幅的文章，這些文章都是經(jīng)過(guò)嚴(yán)格的篩選，由于每次考試的預(yù)測(cè)內(nèi)容不同，每個(gè)班級(jí)的學(xué)生拿到的文章甚至略有不同。通過(guò)典型性文章的寫作練習(xí)，也就是說(shuō)寫文章很有可能就是即將考到的文章，學(xué)生掌握每種文章的方法，也學(xué)習(xí)了舉一反三的能力，就能夠輕松應(yīng)對(duì)雅思作文考試。

那么2006年究竟考什么？學(xué)生要注意什么？在本篇中，我做一個(gè)大致的勾勒，具體考試內(nèi)容預(yù)測(cè)還要在每場(chǎng)考試之前。

2006年，在2005年評(píng)分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)不發(fā)生變化的情況下，雅思考試官方網(wǎng)站宣布了雅思寫作命題部分的新變化，其實(shí)，這種變化對(duì)我們考生來(lái)說(shuō)是一件好事情，它的事實(shí)上是把過(guò)去的命題原則進(jìn)行細(xì)化，使考生在準(zhǔn)備寫作考試的時(shí)候目標(biāo)更明確、觀點(diǎn)更清晰、論證更充分，援引官方網(wǎng)站的說(shuō)法，“進(jìn)行這些改變是為了讓考生進(jìn)一步明確我們希望他們寫什么�！�

1、 A類TASK1：從“描述”到“總結(jié)”與“對(duì)比”

2006年以前的命題只要求“描述”信息，2006年的命題原則中把“描述”這個(gè)詞給切分為兩部分，一個(gè)是總結(jié)重要趨勢(shì)中所反映的信息；第二是對(duì)比相關(guān)的數(shù)據(jù)，從而突出重要趨勢(shì)。我的意思是說(shuō)，描述信息“描述”過(guò)去都是很籠統(tǒng)的，現(xiàn)在細(xì)分為總結(jié)和對(duì)比兩部分。

2、 A類TASK2：“論點(diǎn)”+“例證”

2006年的命題要求的變化對(duì)總論點(diǎn)和分論點(diǎn)進(jìn)行論證的時(shí)候給出具體的理由和相關(guān)的例子，就是要求給出具體的理由。也就是說(shuō)，新的命題要求強(qiáng)調(diào)了原因或者理由作為論據(jù)的重要性。 變也不變、穩(wěn)操勝券。

2006年作文提問(wèn)、話題雙管齊下

I.“提問(wèn)”部分預(yù)測(cè)

這一部分大家可以放心，提問(wèn)的方式還是以上面所提到的5種方式為主，但在布局方面需要細(xì)化。

明確的講，正文部分是關(guān)鍵。根據(jù)雅思考試官方網(wǎng)站所公布的信息，A類TASK2更加強(qiáng)調(diào)了原因和理由作為論據(jù)的重要性。而原因和理由恰恰是寫在正文部分的。

換句話說(shuō)，從2006年開(kāi)始雅思寫作文章的正文就是由分論點(diǎn)和論據(jù)兩部分組成，而且分論點(diǎn)一般就是總論點(diǎn)的理由或原因，論據(jù)最好就是與自己的知識(shí)或經(jīng)歷相關(guān)的例子。其實(shí)，這樣的變化，考生們寫起作文來(lái)，目的性更明確，是件好事！

II.“話題”部分的預(yù)測(cè)

06年寫作話題部分應(yīng)該有兩種：1.舊題重考；2.新題再現(xiàn)

首先，同學(xué)們并不用過(guò)分懼怕新題。1。新題再現(xiàn)最常見(jiàn)的一種手法就是paraphrase，即用不同的表達(dá)方法表達(dá)同一個(gè)意思。比如2004年5月22日與2月14日的考題就是非常典型的例子，2005年6月25日與7月23日的題目也是如此(具體題目請(qǐng)見(jiàn)凱德所公布的機(jī)經(jīng))。2。新題的話題范圍有限。雅思考到現(xiàn)在新題很多，但其“話題”部分所涉及的內(nèi)容總是那幾個(gè)(見(jiàn)下面的分類)，因此，考生只要平時(shí)訓(xùn)練得當(dāng)，遇到新題照樣可以應(yīng)付自如。

此外，舊題重考的概率仍然很高。我們知道，最近雅思官方公布雅思出題所必須經(jīng)過(guò)的10道非常嚴(yán)密的步驟，這不僅保證了雅思試題的高質(zhì)量，也限制了雅思試題不可能更新很快。因此，2006年雅思寫作最可能的情況就是新題+舊題，并且舊題應(yīng)該占據(jù)較大的比例。

最后，話題部分雖然類型繁多，但還是有一定規(guī)律的，因此，這里給出10篇萬(wàn)能作文，考生若能靈活運(yùn)用，對(duì)考試是非常有幫助的！

1. 文化傳統(tǒng)類

Some people think that culture traditions may be destroyed when they are used as money-making attractions aimed to tourists. Others believe that it is the only way that traditions can be remained in the world. Discuss both and give your opinion.

2. 青少年犯罪問(wèn)題

Recent figures of crimes committed by young people are increasing in major cities throughout the world. Discuss the possible reasons and how to solve it?

3. 教育類(1)

In order to improve the quality of education, high school students should be encouraged to evaluate and criticize their teachers, but others think it will result in loss of respect and discipline in classroom. Discuss and give your opinion.

4. 科技類

Many employees may work at home with the modern technology. Some people claim that it can benefit only the workers, not the employers. Do you agree or disagree?

5.國(guó)家政策類

Some people think the government should pay for health care and education, but other people think it’s not government’s responsibility. Discuss both and give your opinion.

6. 社會(huì)問(wèn)題

Many people think that public libraries should only provide books to readers and shouldn’t waste their limited funds on expensive high-tech media, such as computer software, DVD or videos. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

7. 教育類(2)

Some teachers say students should be organized into group study. Others argue that students should be made to study alone. What’s your opinion?

8.冷門題(1)

Food can be cheaper if we use improved facilities and better machinery. However, some of the methods may be dangerous for human health, and have negative effects on local community. What’s your opinion?

9. 廣告類

Advertising is playing an important role in our modern society and we are confronted with various advertisements on a daily basis. Do the positive effects of advertising outweigh its negative effects? What is your opinion about modern advertising?

10.冷門題(2)

Some people say that the large amounts of money used in space research are not worthwhile. Instead, governments should make more efforts to improve the living conditions of humans on Earth. What is your opinion?

以上10篇作文主要是按照歷次雅思寫作題目所涉及的內(nèi)容分的，考生們?nèi)裟芘e一反三，那么作文部分就不用愁了。此外，這也是06年上半年重要的備考題，希望大家予以重視。
