2016年4月雅思写作小范围预测

4月份同样需要把握好主流话题的观点罗列和论点拓展方式。主流话题如：教育和科技 应该是重中之重(因为3月的考题中并没有涉及)。对4月参加考试的烤鸭们，我建议大家每两天精读一个话题库中的一篇范文，并且积累好高频话题当中常用的固定搭配和思路，从容面对常规出题套路。

当然学有余力的同学，可以在掌握好主流话题论点论据的基础上，关注一些低频话题，如 环保问题、家庭生活(尤其是两代人思维差异的代沟问题)、全球化 等。

附上精读范文一篇：

 

范文：

The rapid growth of emerging economies has fuelled controversy over how to define successful countries. Regarding the distinguishing features of successful countries, people might have some shared opinion but they do not reach any agreement. I think that besides economic development, other factors should be taken into consideration.

 

Firstly, social welfare is a significant factor, which has relevance to people’s satisfaction with life. There is ample evidence that in many developing countries, poor people do not benefit from economic growth, which is reflected in the widening gap between haves and have-nots. National wealth is not distributed evenly, and the health service and the education system are underfunded. Because of the ever-increase cost of living, people are not satisfied with their living standards, while the escalating class conflict(阶级矛盾) can threaten social cohesion. It is also important to realize that the economic progress of some countries is achieved at environment’s expense. Industrialization leads to exploitation of natural resources, destroying the environment and causing severe pollution.

 

Considering these factors, economic growth should not be regarded as the main criterion for measuring a country’s success. There is a growing recognition that a successful country should ensure the fair distribution of wealth so citizens’ needs can be satisfied. People are able to acquire necessities such as food, housing, education , medical care and so forth at affordable prices. In deciding whether a country is livable , it is also important to consider air quality, access to clean water , waste disposal, sewage management and transport infrastructures. In addition, we must take into account the issue of whether or not the economic development is sustainable, namely, whether the country can conserve resources for future generations.

 

In brief, it is premature to equate wealth with success. Living standards and sustainable development are among those factors that can be taken into consideration when a country’s success is evaluated.
