2016年5月28日雅思写作预测解析

自16年1月起至现在，我们的小作文主要考了线图、柱图、表格和饼图，除了在16年1月30日当天考察了地图题的历史变迁题，在接下来着两个月中，没有再出现过地图题，而流程图更是从15年12月5日考察了烤鸭们对橄榄油的生产过程描述之后，在接下来的这几个月中再也没出现，所以在5月28日雅思考试中，需要特别注意的首先是这两个题型。当然，对其他的常规图表题也不能掉以轻心。

 

很多童鞋们把这两个题型看作是一种“饿狼传说”，在考场中碰到流程图和地图题简直想立刻离场下次重来，但是，从实际给分情况上来讲，反而是碰到流程图与地图题，童鞋们更容易拿高分。地图题作为一个很可能出现的题型，解题思路其实很清晰。一般最常出现的是历史变迁题，另一种选址比较题大家可以参照剑5里面的第3套题。这边给大家带来的是一道比较难的一张图的历史变迁题，按照时间的规律来解题。

Chorleywood is a village near London whose population has increased steadily since the middle of the nineteenth century. The map below shows the development of the village.  

例文：

The map illustrates the development of a village called Chorleywood over four main periods between 1868 and 1994.

From 1868 to 1883, the village of Chorleywood only covered a small area near a main road. Chorleywood Park and Golf Course is now located close to this area. Over the next period (1883 to 1922), the village expanded southwards along the main road and more than doubled in land area. In 1909, a railway line was built crossing the village of Chorleywood. The village then grew along the railway line to the east and west until 1970. In 1970, a motorway was built to the east of the village. The last period (1970 to 1994) saw further development of Chorleywood taking place around motorway intersections with the railway line and a main road.

It is clear that the village of Chorleywood grew significantly as the transport infrastructure developed between 1868 and 1994.

 

而Process diagram，即流程图的出现几率也是很高的，因为已经很长时间都没有考到了。常规的流程图对大家来说其实并不陌生，比如剑桥中常见的水泥的生产过程，蚕宝宝的生命周期和丝绸的生产过程。但对于多图的流程图，同学们就有些无从下手。我们来以一题砖块的生产过程为例。

The illustrations below show how bricks are manufactured. 

Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

如图，这道流程图并不似常见的流畅图只有两幅图，主体段大家可以一幅图一段，如以往的水泥的生产过程一段，混凝土的生产过程一段。这幅图我们可以如何来将主体段分段呢？我们来看一下例文。

 

例文：

The process by which bricks are manufactured for the building industry can be outlined in seven consecutive steps. 

First the raw material, clay, which was just below the surface of soil in certain clay-rich areas has to be dug up by a digger. Then the lumps of clay are placed on a metal grid in order to break up the big chunks of clay into much smaller areas, which fall through the metal grid onto a roller, whose motion further segregates the bits of clay. Sand and water are added to make a homogenous mixture, which is then either formed in moulds or cut into brick-shaped pieces by means of a wire cutter. 

Those fresh bricks are then kept in a drying oven for at least 24 and a maximum of 48 hours, several dozens if not hundreds of bricks at a time. The dried bricks are then transferred to a so-called kiln, another type of high temperature oven. First they are kept at a moderate temperature of 200 ℃-1300℃. This process is followed by cooling down the finished bricks for 48 to 72 hours in a cooling chamber.

Once the bricks have cooled down and have become hard, they get packaged and delivered to their final destination-a building site or storage.

 

处理流程图的过程中，大家记住三个步骤：

一、确定材料：clay

二、确定工具：digger

三、根据工具工具确定动词：dig（为了避免写成说明书，请使用被动语态）

例句：

First the raw material, clay, which was just below the surface of soil in certain clay-rich areas has to be dug up by a digger. 

这是流程图三步骤在经过美化后的例句，大家可以进行仿写。

 

 

在16年的考试中，出现了广告媒体、犯罪、政府、文化、环境类等话题。多以辩论型（Do you agree or disagree/ Discuss both views and give your own opinion/Advantages outweigh disadvantage）为主，混合型（主观与客观问题结合）题型也两次出现在3月5日与3月31日。报告类题型（客观：原因与解决方案）的题型也在4月21日以一道环境类题型出现了。但从这半年的题目看出，老题的出现频率很高。5月28日的考试中可以多关注文化与犯罪类的旧题，辩论型为主。

例如，文化类中关于时尚的话题。从时装及其他消费品时尚的流行可以看出人类之间互相模仿的倾向。

The tendency of human beings to copy one another is shown in the popularity of fashion in clothing and other consumer goods. 

To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Agree：

1.消费者在电视广告(TV commercials)或者在时尚杂志里(fashion magazines)看到明星的穿着和用品，希望自己有类似的生活方式(lead similar lifestyles)

2.同事、朋友、同学们

3.为追求时尚花费过多(overspend on fashion)(sacrifice comfort or even health for fashion)

Disagree：

1.时尚趋势变化迅速(fashion trends change rapidly)

2.新的时尚趋势具有创新性(are creative or innovative)(want to look innovative)

3.不追随时尚趋势，才变成了缺乏创造力与原创力的标志(becomes a sign of lack of creativity and originality)

 

以及犯罪类，1月14日（青少年犯罪）之后就没出现过，比较经典的是犯罪的惩罚手段以教育和培训为好还是监禁更好的话题。例如：

Some people think that education and training are more effective ways to deal with criminals than sending them to prison.

To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Agree：

（Education & Training）

1.改造计划增加他们的自信与自尊（rehabitation increase their self-confidence and self-respect） 

2.为他们提供一技之长（equip offenders with skills to earn a living） 

Disagree：

(Imprisonment)

1.防止他们在服刑期间继续犯罪 (prevent them from committing further crimes outside prison for the education of the prison term)

2.为罪行感到悔恨(cause many of them to feel remorseful for their criminal acts)

3.有明显的震慑作用 (The threat of imprisonment is a powerful deterrent against future crime)
