與大家相對(duì)比較擅長的聽力、閱讀部分一樣,寫作部分也有著屬于它的規(guī)律和套路,而這樣的規(guī)律可以從往年真題中總結(jié)得出。本文中,朗閣海外考試研究中心的老師將帶各位烤鴨們對(duì) 2022 年雅思寫作的考情進(jìn)行回顧分析。
小作文考情回顧與預(yù)測(cè)
首先,朗閣海外考試研究中心的老師為大家來盤點(diǎn)一下今年小作文部分各項(xiàng)題型的出現(xiàn)頻率。
而從類型上來看,不難發(fā)現(xiàn):
根據(jù)所繪制出來的圖表,不難得出以下幾個(gè)結(jié)論:
1. 數(shù)據(jù)類圖表在小作文的考察中仍是主流,但圖畫題的考察不容小覷
在 2022 年的考試中,流程圖出現(xiàn)了 6 次,地圖出現(xiàn)了 7 次。所以,考生們千萬別抱著“如果遇到流程或者地圖,那我就重來”的僥幸心理了。幸運(yùn)的是,難度系數(shù)不大。所以,烤鴨們一定要記得圖畫年年有的特點(diǎn)。所以,考生們?cè)诮酉聛淼?2023 年的考試中,一定不要小覷圖畫題的威力。
此處,朗閣海外考試中心的老師帶大家看一則流程圖,一睹考試風(fēng)采。
The chart below shows the process of making soft cheese.
Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.
以下,附上一篇朗閣海外考試研究中心的老師的原創(chuàng)范文。
The flow chart illustrates the process of manufacturing soft cheese. The entire process consists of five stages. In the first step, milk, the primary raw ingredient required for cheese production, is mixed evenly with a proportionate amount of water. The mixture then undergoes the cooling process, which is held at the constant temperature of 5°C for two hours. As soon as the cooling phase is complete, salt is added to the cooled, diluted milk, before the mixture is left to ferment for two hours at the temperature of 35°C.
To rid the mixture of the excessive amount of water content present, evaporation kicks in where the intermediate product is then heated to 100°C for eight hours long, during which period water escapes in the form of steam. Afterwards, the dried resulting product is then subject to an eight-hour cooling process that takes place at 5°C. Finally, the filter is used to separate waste water – evidently by-product in the production process – from soft cheese.
To sum up, it’s important to note that there are varying requirements of the temperature and duration in each of stages involved in the manufacturing of soft cheese.
除了以上提到的流程圖和地圖題外,數(shù)據(jù)類圖表今年依舊延續(xù)著其主流考題地位。特別值得注意的是柱狀圖,達(dá)到了將近 1/3 的出題概率。所以,朗閣海外考試研究中心的老師建議:考生們?cè)?2023 年的小作文的準(zhǔn)備中,仍然應(yīng)該以 bar chart 為核心,多寫多練。
2. 靜態(tài)圖的考察比率大幅度上升,不容小覷
2022年動(dòng)態(tài)圖仍然占據(jù)了壓倒性的優(yōu)勢(shì),靜態(tài)圖的考察比重大幅上升。對(duì)雅思寫作小作文相對(duì)比較了解的考生們都知道,動(dòng)態(tài)圖的寫作相對(duì)更加容易,因?yàn)樘茁犯鼜?qiáng),數(shù)據(jù)的分析模式、寫作的句式更強(qiáng)。而靜態(tài)圖,不論是從數(shù)據(jù)分析上,還是句子表達(dá)上,難度系數(shù)都更大一些。這無疑,給了那些只準(zhǔn)備動(dòng)態(tài)表達(dá)方式的考生們重重一擊。所以,在接下來的考試中,考生們不僅要照常關(guān)注動(dòng)態(tài)圖的數(shù)據(jù)分析和表達(dá)方式,對(duì)于靜態(tài)圖的數(shù)據(jù)分析和表達(dá)也要給予應(yīng)有的關(guān)注。朗閣海外考試中心的老師建議:2023 年的雅思寫作考試勢(shì)必會(huì)延續(xù)此項(xiàng)趨勢(shì)。
以下,朗閣海外考試研究中心的老師為大家附上一道柱狀圖。
The bar chart below shows the percentage of boys and girls in Australia who participated in various sports activities in 2000.
以下,附上一篇朗閣海外考試研究中心的老師的原創(chuàng)范文。
The bar chart depicts Australian children’s involvement in six types of sports activities in 2000.
It can be seen from the chart that there were substantial differences in the proportion of boys and girls in different sports. The greatest gender difference was in football, where the participation rate was almost 20 times higher in boys than in girls. (20% vs 1%). meanwhile, boys were more interested in basketball and tennis than girls. 12% of boys were keen on basketball while only 5% of girls liked this sport. Also 12% of participants in tennis were boys and only 8% were girls. However, netball and swimming were dominated by girls.13% of girls played netball after school while only 3% of girls took part in this sport. Similarly, swimming was an after-school recreation for 15% of girls compared with only 5% of boys. Interestingly, boys and girls participated almost equally in cricket, approximately more than 10% of both genders chose cricket as a leisure activity after school.
Overall, boys and girls in Australia had clearly different preference for afterschool sports activities and the overall participation rate was higher among boys than among girls.
大作文考情回顧與預(yù)測(cè)
1. 仍然以議論文為主,報(bào)告類文章出現(xiàn)頻率較去年有所提升
2022年的雅思考試中,report考察有6次。除此之外,絕大多數(shù)題目都是圍繞argumentation 辯論類的文章進(jìn)行。所以說,辯證性思維能力是雅思寫作考察的重中之重,即分析一個(gè)現(xiàn)象帶來的利弊權(quán)衡,兩個(gè)對(duì)立觀點(diǎn)的討論,是否同意一個(gè)觀點(diǎn)或者態(tài)度,并說明原因。
更詳細(xì)來看, To what extent do you agree or disagree?這種類型的考察更是占到了半壁江山(26次,超過一半之多)。無論是argumentation中的哪一種類型,考生們都需要注意:1. 要有清晰的立場(chǎng);2. 要給出切題的論點(diǎn);3. 包含reasoning & exemplification在內(nèi)的論證手法。
此處,朗閣海外考試研究中心的老師帶大家一起看一道考題,感受一下以上三點(diǎn)的運(yùn)用。
It is more important for the government to spend money on promoting the healthy lifestyle to prevent illness rather than on the treatment of people who are really ill. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
附上朗閣海外考試研究中心的老師的原創(chuàng)范文,供大家參考。
Unprecedented emphasis nowadays is laid on healthy lifestyles which are conducive to keeping fit. However, once a person is seized by illness, prompt and effective treatment is indispensable. A healthy lifestyle is, therefore, equal in significance to timely medical treatment.
A healthy lifestyle is a key preventative strategy for ailments or severe illnesses. Once someone falls ill, he or she will suffer physically, psychologically and financially; meanwhile the financial burden of the government will surge in terms of medical subsidies. Consequently, the government should commit itself to promoting healthy lifestyles, which will enhance the wellbeing of the whole society. A typical example of this is that the government has allocated funds to equip each neighborhood and village with gymnastic equipment where people, regardless of their age, prefer to have body-building exercises. Similarly, the pandemic H1N1 which triggers panic is actually preventable and controllable so that the government adopts a range of feasible resolutions including public service advertisement, publicity campaigns to raise people’s health awareness and inform them of how to avoid getting infected.
Of equal importance is the government’s expenditure on medical care for those with genuine sickness. Although a variety of preventative measures have been taken, getting sick is somehow inevitable. However, medical care may seem extravagant and inaccessible for those who are money disadvantaged, in which case, government subsidy is needed urgently. Moreover, the government spending money on the treatment of those who do fall ill will undoubtedly enhance people’ sense of security as well as their overall sense of wellbeing so vital for social stability. Therefore, the government should take the initiative to helping those who are really ill in terms of financial support.
Expenditure on encouraging people to have a healthy lifestyle is by no means more important than that on offering financial support to those with real illness and the government should accordingly budget rational amount of money for both.
2. 話題上,類別不變,內(nèi)容更具體化生活化
從全年來看,雅思寫作大作文話題依舊沿用了以往幾年考試中高頻出現(xiàn)的社會(huì)類、政府類、教育類和科技類的相關(guān)話題。但今年的考題難度頗高。
社會(huì)類話題 2022.12.24
What factor is the most important for building a perfect society? What should be done to achieve this goal?
教育類話題 2022.12.17
Some people think that there could be more benefits to society if more people
study business than history. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
政府類話題 2022.03.26
The housing shortage in big cities can cause severe social consequences. Some
people think only government action can solve this problem. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
工作類話題 2022.11.05
Some people think that men and women have different qualities. Therefore, some certain jobs are suitable for men and some jobs are suitable for women. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
環(huán)境類話題 2022.07.23
More and more people move from the countryside to big cities. Does this development bring more advantages or disadvantages to the environment?
科技類話題 2022.09.24
Some people think that robots are very important to human’s future development, while others think they are dangerous and have negative effects on society. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
3. 類似題目重復(fù)出現(xiàn),舊題頻出,2016-2021老題年重復(fù)率高
“新瓶裝舊酒”的現(xiàn)象在今年的雅思寫作中依然屢見不鮮,因?yàn)橛幸话胍陨系念}目都是重復(fù)舊題或者舊題新出。重復(fù)的老題橫跨2011-2021年度,其中重復(fù)率較高的是2016年-2021年。比如:
22.01.15=21.11.06
Social media enable people to keep in touch with each other and learn about news events. Do advantages outweigh disadvantages?
22.02.19=21.04.03
Many people no longer read newspapers or watch TV programmes to get news. Instead, they get news about the world from the Internet. Do you think it is positive or negative development?
22.04.16=19.10.12
More and more people are using computers and electronic devices to access information, so there is no need for printed books, magazines, and newspapers. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
總而言之,2022年的雅思寫作考試在難度上穩(wěn)中有升。在2023年接下來的雅思寫作備戰(zhàn)中,考生們要更加注意平時(shí)的積累。只要這樣,才能在雅思的考試中百戰(zhàn)而無不勝。
