随着出国留学热潮的继续涌动,出国留学人数日益飙升,尤其是考生们的考试水平的显著提升,都对剑桥考试委员会提出了挑战,导致他们不得不更加兢兢业业、绞尽脑汁、穷其心智地制造各种题目和题型来测试辛勤的烤鸭,所以特此,我也兢兢业业、绞尽脑汁、竭尽全力地为大家破解一下雅思大作文的秘密,让我们也学学孙子“知己知彼,百战不殆”。
剑7(4套)
C7T1
It is generally believed that some people are born with certain talents, for instance for sport or music, and others are not. However, it is sometimes claimed that any child can be taught to become a good sports person or musician.
Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
C7T2
Some people believe that there should be fixed punishments for each type of crime. Other, however, argue that the circumstances of an individual crime, and the motivation for committing it, should always be taken into account when deciding on the punishment.
Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
C7T3
As most people spend a major part of their adult life at work, job satisfaction is an important element of individual wellbeing.
What factors contribute to job satisfaction?
How realistic is the expectation of job satisfaction for all workers?
C7T4
Some people think that universities should provide graduates with the knowledge and skills needed in the workplace. Others think that the true function of a university should be to give access to knowledge for its own sake, regardless of whether the course is useful to an employer.
What, in your opinion, should be the main function of a university?
哇噻,先不说提干内容,我们一眼就发现剑7的写作题目都是的长题干(除了test3,题干虽短但是属于抽象类话题,也并不是容易操作的类型)。就不说单词的难易程度,光看句子的长度就足够吓到一些初来乍到的考生。但是,你若勇敢,恐惧就渺小,你若怯懦,恐惧就变得嚣张,所以孩子们,要淡定,仔细看看题干的关键词,你会发现,它只是多了一些“废话”,关键词还是一如既往地容易判断。
比如:
C7T1
It is generally believed that some people are born with certain talents, for instance for sport or music, and others are not. However, it is sometimes claimed that any child can be taught to become a good sports person or musician.(书后有考官满分范文)
C7T2
Some people believe that there should be fixed punishments for each type of crime. Other, however, argue that the circumstances of an individual crime, and the motivation for committing it, should always be taken into account when deciding on the punishment.
(1) A观点:虽然根据每种罪行来给予固定的刑罚简化了法律程序,但是它似乎太过于笼统而不够人性。
(2) B观点:考虑更多的因素比如犯罪环境和犯罪动机,对犯人和受害人的双方权利的尊重,也相对公正一些。但同时又会给司法程序带来比较大的麻烦,比如取证和量刑等方面。
(3)我的观点:根据具体犯罪环境和犯罪动机来确定刑罚的轻重虽然比较客观公正,但是就现行的司法程序来看,比较难以实行,不过从长远的角度来看,这些人性因素应该成为司法程序中的一个重要部分。
C7T4
Some people think that universities should provide graduates with the knowledge and skills needed in the workplace. Others think that the true function of a university should be to give access to knowledge for its own sake, regardless of whether the course is useful to an employer.
(1) 观点A:大学应该提供就业相关知识。大学不同于高中,是学生从校园迈向社会的过度阶段,也是大多数毕业生的就业准备期。
(2) 观点B:大学教育区别与高中的一个特征就是,大学是学习专业知识的高级阶段,而高中是教授基础知识,培养学习能力的初级阶段。但是不能不考虑知识对于学生未来的就业实际意义。
(3) 我的观点:大学不仅应该教授专业性的理论知识也应该辅以工作相关的就业技能,从而让毕业生能够顺利地融入社会生活当中。
C7T1 Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
C7T2 Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
毫无疑问,在谙熟agree类型的基础上,discuss类型仍然是考生们复习的重点。
C7T3 What factors contribute to job satisfaction?
How realistic is the expectation of job satisfaction for all workers?
此外,相对较少的report类型也应该作为考生的复习范围。还好report类型的结构相对简单,两种结构:
(1)主体一:reason1+solution1; 主体二:reason2+solution2;(主体三:reason3+solution3)
(2)主体一:reasons;主体二:solutions。
C7T4 What, in your opinion, should be the main function of a university?
开放性试题,打破常规的题型,以what来提问,给文章结构的类型带来了更多的可能性。与which类不同,“what”不需要拘泥于题干中已经给出的选项,也可以自己另辟蹊径寻找第三条出路。试题形式更加灵活,请考生们加以关注。(2014年8月9月份考察的题目,似乎说明了这个问题:)

With major cities continue growing, are there any problems to young people?
How to solve these problems?

To what extent do you think societies benefit from the contact and closer relationship with foreigners brought about by international business and tourism?
小结:
剑7大作文最明显的变化:
(1) 题干较长,增加了审题难度。
(2) 除常规题型外,强调了小众题型report及开放性试题。
