第二篇:雅思寫作真題
雅思寫作真題范文賞析:滿分篇
滿分的雅思大作文到底有何神奇之處,因為作文要想得滿分那是幾率非常小的事,下面為大家分享的這篇雅思真題寫作范文,既然是滿分,那么一定有大家可借鑒之處了
原題再現:
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 comparing these 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 argue 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 successful.Competition 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.參考翻譯:
在媒體不斷地推波助瀾下,我國的許多職業運動員已成為了明星和名人。那些頂尖的運動員收入頗豐。像一些電影明星一樣,他(她)們也是香車豪宅,生活極為奢華。
許多人覺得與那些掙高薪的頂級外科醫生,從事研究的科學家或有管理國家責任的高官相比,他(她)們的回報極為不公。然而,運動員的薪水并不是由一個人對社會所做出的貢獻或者其責任水平所決定。相反,它們反映的是從整體上來說體育運動在大眾中的普及性以及那些成功的體育明星對促進公眾對運動的支持所做出的貢獻。所以,“公平”的概念并不是問題關鍵之所在。
那些認為體育明星拿高薪無可厚非的人爭辯說那些有天賦的體育運動員實屬鳳毛麟角,高薪是對他(她)們嫻熟技能和通往成功之路所付出努力的承認。競爭持續不斷,運動員在他(她)們相對較短的運動生涯中迎接每次檢驗。來自于媒體的壓力令人窒息,而且他(她)們必須生活在鎂光燈下,沒有隱私。這一切都證明了他(她)們高薪得之無愧。在我個人看來,比起電影明星的高薪,體育明星的高薪更受之無愧。但與此同時,該現象也顯得出我們的社會更關注體育而非其它一些更重要的領域和成就。

雅思寫作真題解析
雅思大作文在分析題目時,不能只看到其表面意思,與此同時解到題目所涉及的是哪一類話題也是特別重要的一環,題目中是否有一些關鍵詞需要格外注意以及對于這道題目所能想到的一些觀點論證都要引起注意。本篇雅思培訓,文都國際教育老師將和大家一起探討兩道典型的教育類話題。
As part of education, students should spend a period of time studying and living in a different country to learn its language and culture.To what extent do you agree or disagree?
審題:
題目翻譯:作為教育的一部分,學生應該要花一段時間去海外學習和生活來學習當地的語言和文化。你在多大程度上同意或者不同意?
能力考查:這個教育類話題是同意不同意的考試指令,考查考生對于考官所呈現的社會現象或所表達的觀點是否能夠清晰地給出自己的想法并加以有效論證。一般來講,碰到這種指令,理論上是可以寫完全支持或者反對的,但是還是建議大家盡量嘗試用折中的寫法,即部分同意部分反對。這種一分為二的思考方式可以在考場上幫助你快速想出觀點并進行有效作答,另外這種答題模式也不太會發生偏題的情況。
框架構造:Partly agree
1.開頭段(用于引出題目背景,并且表明自己的態度)
2.論證出國學習和生活對于學習語言和文化的重要性
3.但是,反面論證這種做法對于部分學生是不現實的 4.結尾(再次重申自己的觀點,并且可以給出自己的建議)
Sample answer:
Going abroad for further study has become more of a trend as large numbers of students participate in international language tests, such as IELTS or TOEFL.Some academics advocate that an experience of learning in foreign countries is a necessary part of education for language betterment and language acquisition.As for me, however, such practice should be considered with discretion.Admittedly, studying and living in another country can be an effective way to achieve the mentioned purposes.Compared with second-hand experience, living in the native environment can provide students with many opportunities to use the language to communicate with local people.Such language ability can make them be more competitive in the future job market.Meanwhile, living experiences can help students to have a deep insight into local life, including history, culture as well as religious belief.However, it would be unrealistic if all students are encouraged to participate in it.First of all, considering students themselves, those who lack learning and adaptive ability may find it hard to integrate into local life and 文都國際教育官方網站:http://www.tmdps.cn/
文都國際教育官方網站:http://www.tmdps.cn/
sometimes they will feel disappointed or even depressed because of culture shocks and language barriers.Tuition fees and life expenses can beanother problem.Different from rich students, those who come from working-class families or needy families cannot afford such a big cost to study overseas.For example, studying in UK for one year may cost one student nearly 300 thousand, which is far from affordability.To sum up, an experience of studying and living overseas can help students to speak good language and understand the local culture well.However, it is not a practical way for most ordinary families unless they make full preparations.思路分析:
Introduction:
Going abroad for further study has become more of a trend as large numbers of students participate in international language tests, such as IELTS or TOEFL.(用最熟悉的事件引出背景)Some academics advocate that an experience of learning in foreign countries is a necessary part of education for language betterment and language acquisition.(對于題目的改寫)As for me, however, such practice should be considered with discretion.(在段落的最后,用一句話表明出自己的觀點)
Body 1:
主題句:Admittedly, studying and living in another country can be an effective way to achieve the mentioned purposes.(其中mentioned purposes指的是題目中的掌握語言和文化,為了避免重復,改用其他方式來表達)
支撐論點部分:Compared with second-hand experience,(用了對比論證手法,強調國外生活與學習的好處)living in the native environment can provide students with many opportunities to use the language to communicate with local people.Such language ability can make them be more competitive in the future job market.(凸顯對于語言的好處,使用了因果論證來說明語言的重要性)Meanwhile,(論點之間的連接詞)living experiences can help students to have a deep insight into local life, including history, culture as well as religious belief.(論證了對于文化的幫助,使用including來舉出文化的一些典型表現)。
Body 2:
主題句:However, it would be unrealistic if all students are encouraged to participate in it.(用however轉折連接詞引出與上段不同的看法,指出了一部分特殊的學生不利于海外學習,這樣就體現出了邏輯上的縝密)
支撐論點部分:
① First of all, considering students themselves, those who lack learning and adaptive ability may find it hard to integrate into local life and sometimes they will feel disappointed or even depressed because of culture shocks and language barriers.(個論點,指出語言能力差的學生不適合出國學習,使用的是因果論證)
② Tuition fees and life expenses can be another problem.Different from rich students, those who come from working-class families or needy families cannot afford such a big cost to study overseas.For example, 文都國際教育官方網站:http://www.tmdps.cn/
文都國際教育官方網站:http://www.tmdps.cn/
studying in UK for one year may cost one student nearly 300 thousand, which is far from affordability.(第二個分論點,指出家庭經濟條件不好的學生也不適合出國學習,用for example引出了典型的舉例論證)
Conclusion:
To sum up,(段落結尾常見連接詞)an experience of studying and living overseas can help students to speak good language and understand the local culture well.However, it is not a practical way for most ordinary families unless they make full preparations.(個人觀點的重述加上適當的建議)
Some people think children should obey the rules their parents and teachers set and listen to them, but others think less control will help children to deal with their own future life.Discuss both views and give your own opinion.審題:
題目翻譯:有些人認為小孩子需要遵守和聽從父母和老師指定的規則。然而另外一些人則認為對小孩少一點的限制會有利于他們更好的處理和解決未來生活中的問題。討論兩個觀點并且給出你個人的看法。
能力考查:這個教育類話題是雙邊討論的考試指令,考查學生是否能對于考官所呈現的兩個觀點進行有效的論證及對比。這個題目中一般都會有標志性詞眼,例如some people believe…, while others think…。就這類題目的答題要點來說,我們會建議四段式結構,包括開頭引入,兩個觀點的分別論證及結尾段給出你自己的看法。
題目關鍵詞:rules, parents, teachers
框架構造:
1.開頭段(用于引出兩個觀點所爭論的內容)
2.論證個論點的合理性,即小孩子需要遵守和聽從父母和老師指定的規則
3.論證第二個觀點的合理性,即對小孩少一點的限制會有利于他們更好的處理和解決未來生活中的問題
4.結尾段(給出個人觀點)

第四篇:歷年四級寫作真題
專四輔導之便條寫作
(一)便條的寫作
便條是一種簡單的書信形式。要求考生仔細閱讀和分析所給的情景,確定便條所涉及的內容,如寫便條者與便條接收者的身份、兩者之間的關系及情景的正式程度等。
便條的特點在于內容簡短,大多是臨時性的詢問、留言、通知、要求等。與正規書信相比,便條的語言更為口語化,比如要通知某事只需這樣開頭:Just a line to tell you that...而無須像正規書信那樣This is to inform you that...開頭。有急事需要告訴別人而又不能面談時,就可以寫便條,如請假條、留言條等。一般不寫地址,與普通書信基本相同。結尾時也無需要結尾禮詞,只需要寫上便條者姓名。
便條的日期通常寫在右上角,一般只要寫上星期幾,也可以寫明上午、下午的具體時間;日常應用中,寫上幾月幾日的也很普遍。但一般不寫年份,因為便條的內容多半是當日或近日內要辦的事情。
便條具有用途廣泛、形式簡單、文字要求不十分嚴格的特點。
基本寫作格式
便條內容和類型不盡相同,可以靈活變通。但必須包括以下四個基本要素; 1)Date:便條日期2)Salutation:稱呼3)Body:正文 4)Signature:署名
注意事項
1.詞句簡潔,盡量避免應酬語和敬詞 2.切忌內容空洞、言不達意。分類舉例
1)請假(Asking for Leave)
例1 Directions: You are about to write a Business Leave Note of about 100 words.Please describe the information clearly.1)the reason you ask for the leave 2)the time and how long you will leave
Aug.22nd Secretary Li, I’m sorry to apply for ten days’ leave from the Aug.23rd to sept.3rd instant.As I have to leave with the time is urgent.My father now in the hospital is badly ill.I have to go to see him and take care of him for a few days.You know I’m the only child in my family.Of course I will show you the telegram about my father’s illness which is received from my mother to support my application.As concern as the missed lessons during my absence, I promise I will do my best to catch them on after I come back to the campus.Wish for your allowance.Yours respectfully,××× 本文是一封請假條,一般我們要向上級或老師請假,通常用的是ask for leave這個短語,請三天假可寫作:ask for three days’ leave;因病請假則是ask for sick leave.leave在這里是名詞用法,文中用的短語是apply for意為“申請”,含有更加鄭重的意味,常用于下級對上級或晚輩對長輩的書面語中,“Only child”意為“獨生子女”相應的,“獨生女”譯作“only daughter”而“獨生子”譯作“only son”.As concern as后面跟名詞性結構,意為“涉及到,至于”與Concerning同義,兩者可以互換。
例2 Directions: Your father is seriously ill, and you want to go back home.Write a note to the secretary and it should include 1)the cause for leaving;2)the days: from 16th to 21st;3)Catch on the lesson after returning school.July 5th Dear Miss Huang, My sister called me last night, and she said that my father is dangerously ill.I beg to apply for seven days’ leave of absence from 16th to 21st instant, in order that I can see my beloved father.I should be much obliged if you would grant me my application.As regards the lessons to be missed during my absence, I will do my best to make up for them as soon as I get back from home.Sincerely yours,××× I should be much obliged if you would...是一種客套語,表示“……,我當不勝感激。”“補課”的英文是to make up for the lessons。2)約請(Invitation)Directions: You have a ticket to the Russian National Ballet Troupe, which is visiting and you want to give it to your friend Alice.Write a note to her and say: 1)the time of the show, 2)the place where you will wait for her.Sunday Dear Alice, Here is a piece of good news for you.The Russian National Ballet Troupe, which is now on a visit in Beijing, will give a performance in the Beijing Grand Theater tomorrow evening.I am sure that you will be happy to watch it.Here I leave you an admission card.The performance will begin at seven o’clock sharp.I will wait for you at the theater entrance.Please let me know whether you are prevented from coming or not.××× 約朋友一起去看戲,可是朋友不在家,只好留下票子和一張便條,但又怕朋友來不了,所以在便條最后特地寫上“如果你來不了,告訴我一聲”(Please let me know whether you are prevented from coming)3)道歉(Apology)
人非圣賢,孰能無過。在社會交往中,人們常常會出現一些疏忽、過失等。如果發生此類事情,就會給對方帶來麻煩和不便。為了避免誤解,不影響感情,在這種情況下,應寫信給對方予以解釋,以請求諒解。此類信要寫得及時,態度要誠懇,用詞需謙遜。一般在信一開始就向對方表示歉意或內疚,然后說明原因并提出補救的辦法。
例1 Directions: You have missed a date of your friend, now you have to write a letter for appologization in about 100 words.May 20th Dear Lily, I am sorry I missed seeing you yesterday.I know that you must have been disappointed.I also feel worried and anxious in my heart.The fact is that my manager at the last moment asked me to prepare a urgent plan while I could not get to a phone to call you and yesterday I have worked late until about 8:30 p.m.I am terribly sorry.However, I would like to ask you out this weekend to make up for yesterday.Please give me a chance and I am waiting for your reply.××× 臨時有事未能赴約,一定要把事情解釋清楚并真誠的道歉,最好能有彌補(to make up),邀請對方周末再碰頭(I would like to ask you out this weekend)注意句子you must have been disappointed中情態動詞的用法:情態動詞+完成時態,表示過去行為。這句話應該理解為“你當時一定感到很失望”。
例2 Directions: You have received a invitation from your friend, but you have already had some guests in your house.Please express the reason you can’t go clearly in about 100 words.6.April Dear Lucy, I do apologize for having to send this letter about Saturday night.When I accepted your invitation, I simply forgot that Saturday was a holiday and that my own guests were not leaving until Sunday morning.It is difficult for me to make a choice.Though I also wonder to meet you very much.I could not very well go out by myself and leave the guests at my home.I hope you know how sorry I am not to be with you this Saturday.Should I make a visit to you in my other spare time? Thank you very much.××× 自己家里有客人,自然不方便再接受別人邀請去做客所以可以明正言順的表示拒絕或可另約時間。英文要強調謂語動詞,可以加上助動詞,例如:I do apologize for being late.例3 Directions: You are already have a date with your friend but suddenly have another thing to do and you have to tell your friend that you can’t go.Express your reason clearly in about 100 words.Monday 9:00 am Dear Jane, I am sorry to tell you that I won’t be able to come this afternoon because I have to go to the airport at 2:00 p.m.to meet an overseas visitor from Australia.I really have kept our date in my mind all these days, however, I received my boss’s e-mail this morning, he asked me to go to the airport to meet one of his friends from abroad, it’s urgent and I must go.Please forgive me.Would you please ring me up to make another time? Many thanks.××× 因有事而不能赴約,只能另約時間(to make或to fix another time)。英國人一般把“打電話”說成to ring somebody up,還可以說 to give somebody a ring,不要錯以為別人要送你個戒指。美國人通常說to call somebody。與別人已經定好的約會卻臨時不能赴約時,應說明原因并誠懇地道歉,以期獲得別人的諒解。4)借物(Borrowing)Directions: You are going to write a note for borrowing sth.Please describe these information clearly 1)the thing you ask 2)what you are going to do with it 3)how long will you take it.Tuesday Dear Xiao Wang, I wonder if I could borrow your electronic dictionary for a few days.Now I am translating some important articles.There are many new words which I have to look up the dictionary usually.I just have a paper dictionary but of course it’s not as convenient as the electronic one, which has a bad effect upon my velocity of my translating.So I think your electronic dictionary is more suitable for me to complete my work.I promise that I must be very careful of your dictionary and make no damage done on it.Thank you very much!
Yours ever,××× 字典是我們日常生活中常用的學習工具,但千萬不能從字面上認為“查字典”就是“check the dictionary”,而應該用“look up”這個固定短語來表達。“影響……”有一個很地道的短語。“have effect upon/on”,如果是積極影響就在have和effect之間加a good,反之,就加“a bad”其他的形容詞例如great,remarkable也可以用來修飾effect,此詞在這里是名詞。5)回復友人問候(Reply for Regards)Directions: You have just had an operation, and received a note of regards from your friend Jenny.Now please write a reply to her to tell her your current situation.Jan.8th.Dear Jenny, Thanks for your letter of sympathy I received the day before yesterday.The operation on my leg was a wonderful success.You know I had been suffering a lot from my leg since my childhood.The operation removed the cause of trouble.It is quite worth having the operation.I am daily recovering from my illness.I’m confident I will soon be in the office again after proper treatment.Thank you for kind wishes.My best wishes to all your family
××× 這是對好友問候便條的回復。形式簡單,內容明了。過去完成進行時“I had been suffering…my childhood”表示動作從過去一直持續到現在。便條寫作中的語言表達:
中國人與西方人看問題的方法的確在許多方面存在著差異,而且這種差異的的確確在束縛著中國學生,成為他們英文寫作中的攔路虎,使他們不能準確而簡潔地表達思想。
比如寫下面一則便條,因母親突然生病,周末你不能和湯姆去跳舞了,你找了舞跳得很好的時黛來代替你,并表示抱歉。
July 6
Dear Tom,I am sorry to inform you that I won't be able to go to dance with you this weekend.My mother is suddenly taken ill.In order not to disappoint you,I have asked Shi Dai to take my place.She is a better dancer,I think.
My regrets.
Joe 從便條中可看出,英語表達先“果”—I won't be able to go to dance with you this weekend后“因”—my mother is suddenly taken ill,即所謂“先果后因”。
一般來說,在單個句子中,英語句子也是先中心,也就是將主要思想、結果放在句首,放在主句里表達;而漢語正相反,一般為后中心,主要的觀點、信息往往放在句末。如:He had to stay at home yesterday because he was ill.(因為他病了,昨天他不得不呆在家里。)
Tragedies can be written in literature since there is tragedy in life.(生活中既然有悲劇,文學作品就可以寫悲劇。)
所以說,大學生用英文寫作時,要按照英美人的思維模式進行思考,避免寫出中國式的英語。

2010年Should College Students Hire Cleaners Buying or Borrowing Books?
Books are close friends of humanity.They can arm us with knowledge and information we need to make success of life.Through books we can obtain skills and techniques for survival and development.Through books we can enlighten our spirits and live a fuller life.There are generally two ways in which we can access to books: borrowing or buying.While millions are borrowing books, I still think buying them best suits me and gives me the greatest enjoyment.Admittedly, there are a few merits for borrowing books.For one thing, borrowing books can save us huge amounts of money.And of course, with the money saved we can do other more worthy things.And also, as we borrow books from the library and friends, we normally have deadline to finish them, and consequently we can read more books in a limited time.And we can, above all, better our efficiency of our reading, just as a famous Chinese saying goes, “books can not be read unless borrowed.”
However, some advantages for buying books are more obvious and compelling.One of them, definitely not shared by the choice of borrowing books, is the abundance of freedom that buying books can offer us.Since we can keep the books as long as we wish, we can read as much as we want.Another strength of owing books is that we can take whatever notes on the margin of the pages of the books.And finally, the process of selecting and keeping books can be a great fun that borrowing books can by no means offer.While borrowing books can, to some extent, quench our thirst for knowledge, buying books gives us greater pleasure of selecting and keeping the best of the world treasure.Can we think of any thing else more delightful and rewarding?
