1. It is natural process of animal species to become extinct (e.g. dinosaurs, dodos etc.). There is no reason why people should stop happening this. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

Animal species disappear because of changes on the Earth that are caused either by nature or by human activities. While nothing can be done about nature, humans can help save many animal species from being extinct.

Extinction is a natural phenomenon. After all, more than 90 percent of all animal species that have ever lived on Earth are not alive today, and this has had nothing to do with human beings. Sometimes, a natural event, like a volcano eruption, can kill an entire species. It is interesting to know that dinosaurs were wiped out by an enormous asteroid impact on the planet around 66 million years ago, in the absence of humans. Animal extinctions may also be caused by natural occurrences such as climate heating or cooling or changes in sea levels. For example, after the ICE Ages, when the glaciers melted and the planet became warmer, many species died out because they could not live in a warmer climate. In these cases, it is indeed senseless for humans to try to intervene and stop them from happening.

Yet this does not mean that human activity is not at all responsible for animal extinction, especially in modern days. Given that it is a natural process of animal species to become extinct, humans have made it worse, and accelerated the extinction. A new study reveals that the famous extinction of Mauritian Dodo about 300 years ago began the moment Dutch sailors first encountered the bird on the island of Mauritius. As a matter of fact, many animal species have been lost due to the human role in habitat loss, environmental pollution, climate change, over-fishing, and over-hunting. Indeed, human activities have made the extinction of many animals take place long before the nature should have taken its course.

In conclusion, although it is natural process that many animal species have died out, now there are enough reasons to believe that human beings should (and could) take action to prevent animals from disappearing too soon.

The international committee should act immediately to ensure that all countries reduce fossil fuels, such as gas and oil. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

Today, unprecedented volatility in the price of feedstocks and concerns over global warming with its resulting consequences have spurred a radical change in human society --- cutting down the consumption of fossil energy on the global scope. However, little progress has been made so that it is time now for human society as a whole, if possible, to take immediate action before it is too late.

Admittedly, environmental issues resulted from the mass use of oil and gas are far beyond the reach of individual person or a country. With the combustion of oil and gas in industrial production comes huge amounts of carbon dioxide emissions, thereby resulting in the increase in global temperature. However, efforts made by one or two countries seem pale in comparison to current worse situation. Besides, the consumption of such energy is predicted to last no more than 100 years as both oil and gas are non-renewable energy. Therefore, it is necessary for whole human society to reach a consensus and immediately take concerted effort to search for economically viable and environmentally sound alternatives.

However, when it comes to evaluating all countries, it is far too difficult to play fair on the ground. The phase where each country stands makes a great difference on how well the mission can be accomplished and what can be done to achieve the final goal. Feasibility seems high in most developed countries as they either have already possessed advanced technology or stand poised on brink of the answer to the question. Unlike them, underdeveloped and developing countries have not seem so optimistic due to large population and low efficiency of energy utilization. Therefore, to enforce such an act --- immediately reducing the use of fossil fuels seems far too early for these countries and regions.

In conclusion, it is true that international community should take the role immediately in consideration of global environmental condition. Every country on this planet is obliged to actively participate into this, but it is impossible and more importantly it seem unfair for all countries to cut down the use of fossil fuels given the non-balanced development among different countries.

In some countries, the difference in age between parents and children is generally greater than it was in the past. Do you think the advantages of this trend outweigh the disadvantages?

The number of older parents is on the rise as people are waiting until their 30s and 40s to start having babies, which has widened the age gap between parents and their children. For the most part, the benefits of this trend outweigh the drawbacks.

The widened gap in age between parents and their children may bring about financial and emotional benefits. Parents who decide to have babies later in life may have climbed the corporate ladder, received promotions, and are therefore financially secure to raise children. With that financial security would come the emotional privilege. Older parents seem to be more stable, relaxed, and less stressed-out than their younger counterparts. Since older parents are more likely to have been settled down professionally, they are able to allow themselves to spend more time with their children.

However, the choice to put off having babies may have negative implications for both parents and children. For parents, it is physically challenging to raise a baby when they are, say, over forty years old. The delayed parenthood is quite unfair for the children too, because their parents probably will not be able to live long enough to see them grow up. Most importantly, when the parent-child age difference is 40 years or more, parents will very quickly become a burden to their children who are just starting their career as young adults. In this case, children might be forced to care for their older parents from a very young age.

For all these disadvantages, I still believe the greater parent-child age gap is a good thing, because it contributes to the economic and emotional well-being of children during the most important years of their growth. Meanwhile, with the improvement of medical technology and social pension system, the potential risks the older parents may experience and the burden they may give their children have been greatly reduced.

雅思写作5.5 都是因为假大空?

仔细分析原因是因为内容文不对题、开头冗长、言之无物,未能按照题目的要求进行描述、归纳或论述。那在写作中怎么才能处理掉“通篇内容空洞”这样的顽疾呢?今天就带你揭晓答案。

“内容”重要还是“语言”重要?

相信不少烤鸭都存在这样的误区:雅思是一门语言考试,所以雅思写作考的是语言,而不是内容。今天要告诉大家的是,这个想法绝对是错误的!

很多同学语言基础很不错,对单词和语法的掌握都很熟练,然而最后写作成绩却并不满意。这些文章缺乏实质性的内容。在雅思写作的评分标准中,第一项就是“写作任务的回应情况(Task Response)”,要求文章要有“清晰的观点、切题的论点、充分的论证”。也就是说,考官是非常重视文章的内容是否有逻辑且充实的,这会决定我们整篇文章分数的一个上限。

写作中的假、大、空

1、写作中的“假”内容

就是让读者看起来觉得很假,没有说服力的内容。有些同学为了节约备考的时间,背诵了一些万能的、语言表达非常好的论点论据,在文章中直接默写套用。这样的内容如果没有办法充分证明论点,或者语言和自己写的部分差距极大的话,很容易让读者看出来是背诵的内容。

这样问题的出现,主要是因为同学们对雅思写作要求不够了解。在上文中提到过,写作的评分不会只关注语言,内容的切题也是一个重要评分项。同学们会因被读者看出来的“背诵性内容”而扣分。

2、写作中的“大”论点

很多中国同学喜欢用看起来很宏大的一些论点,比如“体育能完善人格”,“艺术能陶冶情操”,但是用这样的论点进行论证有两点不好。

第一,“人格”和“情操”这种涵盖意思过广的中文名词没有非常精准的英文翻译,很多同学使用的词汇不能完全表达自己本来的意思。

第二,雅思大作文篇幅有限,一个论点下面的论证过程一般在50-70个单词之间,同学们没有办法在段篇幅内把这种包含意思很广的内容解释清楚。这都会影响读者对文章的理解,无法做到有效的沟通。

同学们爱用宏大论点的原因,也是大部分受之前写作习惯的影响。很多同学之前写作文习惯了“劈情操”,但是雅思作文是在“讲道理”,其实就是在短篇幅内,有效合理地证明自己的观点,道理讲得越清楚,越是好的文章。

3、写作中“空洞”的表达

空洞的表达就是缺乏有效且具体论证的内容。很多同学会在论据的部分出现很多无效的和重复性内容,也就是非常典型的“车轱辘话”。

如 “Watching television could enrich students’ general knowledge. The reason is that they spend a great deal of time seeing various programs, which makes them more knowledgeable about the world. For example, when a child watches television alone at home, he or she could have access to different information, thus having an encyclopedic knowledge about many things. ”

这位同学为了证明看电视可以丰富小孩知识,在这段论证过程写了三句话,而这三句话的意思是一模一样的,这么写从内容和语言方面都有问题。

1、从内容方面来说,后面的重复性内容不能被作为 evidence 来支撑前面的论点,没有说服力。

2、从语言方面,这段论证过程里面用到了 “the reasons is that…”, “for example” 等表示不同逻辑关系的连接词,但是文章中的 “the reasons is that…” 后面连接的不是愿意,“for example” 后面连接的也不是例子,这相当于连接词的选择和使用也有问题。

空洞的论证过程原因在于学生的积累不够以及没有具体化的意识。其实很多同学的复习不够充分,没有把该刷的话题刷过一遍,导致有些话题在考场上完全没有思路,只能把和主题有关的词汇和句型都堆砌在一起。还有些同学对很多话题的常识也缺乏一定的了解,比如建设基础设施 build infrastructure 的作用,很多同学只能想到“便民”,根本不知道基础设施对促进经济的极大作用,导致扩展不够,也只能用重复内容来凑。

此外,没有将内容具体化的意识和训练也会导致空洞的论证过程。比如刚才的那段文字,可以在很多内容上进行具体的细化展开。

如 “Watching television could enrich students’ general knowledge.(哪些知识) The reason is that they spend a great deal of time seeing various programs(哪些节目), which makes them more knowledgeable about the world. For example, when a child watches television alone at home, he or she could have access to different information(哪些信息), thus having an encyclopedic knowledge about many things. (哪些事情)”

如何开展“有效的论证”?

想要避免出现上述“假、大、空”的内容,需要同学们进行一段时间的备考和训练,准备工作中主要需要注意2个方面:

1、对话题的了解及相关素材的积累;

2、对论证过程的训练。

雅思大作文由多个话题构成,同学们可以根据以往考试题目将话题进行归类,如政府类、教育类、科技类等;然后按照不同的话题准备相关的常识和素材,确保拿到题目有话可说。

此外,论证的训练也是有必要的,同学们可以学习常见的论证方法,如因果论证、解释论证、假设论证等,在平日练习时加以应用,让考试中写出的文章充实有逻辑。
