《剑12》北美首发深度解析之写作

剑12的新题中A类小作文和大作文的出题类型与以往剑桥练习有非常明显的变化趋势。我们能从其中四篇小作文和大作文中看出 -- A类小作文的变化是非数据类的练习增多(如:流程图&地图);A类大作文的题目趋势则更倾向于社会类话题。


A类小作文

我们能从过去的几本剑桥真题中看出数据类图表练习(如:饼图,线图,柱状图和表格图等)占据了更多比例。这些图的基本分类为静态图和动态图,其中动态图(有超过两个或两个以上时间的图表)的比例站多数。去年的剑11中小作文三个练习都为饼图。而剑12 则把相对较少的非数据类图和柱状图作为了重点(柱状图,地图,柱状图 &流程图)。进几次的考试当中也有很多学生反映考试中出现了流程图和地图,而且感觉这两种图的比较和描述会比数据类图要难。那我们下面来看一篇Henry老师来给大家写的sample小作文(流程图):


The process diagram demonstrates the main steps of generation of power by the utilization of geothermal energy.


The whole procedure consists of five main stages. First of all, it starts from the cold water, being pumped down to the space with a depth of 4.5 kilometers underground. Thereafter, the water from the previous step is pumped into the injection well before flowing through the geothermal zone, which is composed of hot rocks.


After passing the geothermal zone, the liquid is conveyed into the production well. Subsequently, the water is transported up to the condenser located on the ground by the hot water pump. Finally, after the condensing stage in the condenser, the liquid is transferred into steam, which powers the turbine, and with the power from the turbine, the generator produces electricity and then delivers it to the pylon.


In summary, the diagram depicts the process of electricity generation by geothermal energy through a series steps.


A类大作文

大作文相对于小作文来说是学生更加熟悉的写作种类了,大家在学校也经常会有相似的写作练习。但在雅思写作的8大话题中,剑 12把其所有的侧重点都放到了社会类话题中。 我们先来看下剑12 的四篇大作文真题题目:


-Some people believe that it is good to share as much information as possible in scientific research, business and the academic world. Others believe that some information is too important or too valuable to be shared freely. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.


-At the present time, the population of some countries includes a relatively large number of young adults, compared with the number of older people. Do the advantages of this situation outweigh the disadvantages?


-In a number of countries, some people think it is necessary to spend large sums of money on constructing new railway lines for very fast trains between cities. Others believe the money should be spent on improving existing public transport. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.


-Some people believe that allowing children to make their own choices on everyday matters (such as food, clothes and entertainment) is likely to result in a society of individuals who only think about their own wishes. Other people believe that it is important for children to make decisions about matters that affects them.


根据前几个月的实战真题回顾,其实我们的确能看到很多场考试的大作文话题都是围绕着社会类问题来出的。


比如:

6月17的A类考题:

-Should all large companies provide sports and social facilities for local communities?

6月24的A类考题:

-Many parents nowadays are giving a lot of pressure to their children. Why does this happen? Do you think it is a positive or negative development?


我们能从最近的几场考试中看出考官对社会类话题的热爱。老师也同样建议我们的考生多多练习社会类的话题。但大家也应该多练习关于教育和与政府有关的话题。下面我们来看下Henry老师给大家带来的另一篇真题。


At the present time, the population of some countries includes a relatively large number of young adults, compared with the number of older people. Do the advantages of this situation outweigh the disadvantages?


In modern world, it is quite common to see that the young people constitute a larger percentage in some countries which are getting “younger”. The opinions about this are deeply divided.


There are some benefits in this trend, one of which is that there is sufficient vitality if the younger generation account for a greater part in a country. Obviously, the young possess a great deal of energy, abundant creativity and gorgeous perspective. Especially for the young people who have just graduated from universities, after these talents start their career, they would seize the opportunities and achieve their capacities and skills, making considerable contribution to the whole society. Besides, in this world with an unprecedented development, the younger generation are usually unique with the creative and innovative minds, which are necessary in many cases. To a large extent, such minds as well as values have better adaptability so that they are more likely to be the master key to the development of the nation.


However, there are also some drawbacks in this tendency. One of the main concerns is the impulsiveness. With the acceleration of the pace of life, an increasing number of young people would live under high pressure. Some of these self-centered young people with weak anti-pressure ability but resentment might commit crimes without consideration, which is detrimental to society. In addition, compared with the elderly people, the younger generation lack experience in life, which proves to be a valuable treasure. As the old people could provide many constructive suggestions according to their decades’ experience, the young people could be prevented from making mistakes, thus getting back on the right track.


To sum up, the tendency that the young adults outnumber the elderly people does make contribution to the nation. If the precious knowledge and experience could be adopted from the old, the advantages of the younger generation could be enhanced considerably.
