2018年01月20日雅思大作文题目
Today advertising can be seen everywhere in daily life. It has influenced what people think is important and sometimes has negative effects on people’s life. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
这次雅思大作文考试是关于广告和我们思维方式之间的关系，这道题是2013年5月16日的原题重现。
广告话题，大家可以参考下面的观点：
Ø 广告可传递信息（informative)
Ø 广告鼓励人们消费，有利于社会经济发展 （advertising can boost economy by encouraging consumption)
Ø 而且设计美观，可以给我们的生活增添亮色，具有美学效果（well-designed advertisements have aesthetic values, making the world more beautiful)
Ø 广告往往夸大其辞（exaggerating），误导性强（misleading），从而让消费者上当受骗。
Ø 广告往往通过各种方式制造消费欲望，让消费者花钱购买很多不必要的商品（buy things they do not really need），从而引发一系列社会问题(social problems)。
Ø 广告往往显示社会差异，容易让人失去心理平衡。
本次考试要求大家讨论广告如何影响我们对“生活中什么是重要的”这一问题的思考，同时讨论这如何对我们的生活产生消极影响。因此，本题一定要切入讨论“生活中什么是重要的”，广告如何影响我们对这个问题的思考并由此给我们的生活带来什么样的负面作用。
可能很多同学没有认真阅读题目的前面部分，只将重点放在后半部分，只讨论广告的消极影响而不联系“生活中什么是重要的”，这样就很容易偏题。
那么，广告如何影响我们对“生活中什么是重要的”（what we think is important）这个问题的思考呢？我们知道广告在给我们提供商品信息的同时，也在无形中制造了我们的欲望，让我们养成消费的习惯，认为不停消费就是生活，但事实上，过分的消费主义让我们产生无休止的渴望，从而对自己的生活现状不满足，产生不幸福的感觉，同时还可能让我们为了满足物质需要而犯罪。因此，广告的确是必要的，但作为消费者，我们应与广告保持一定距离，避免被被广告洗脑而进行非理性消费。
1月20日雅思大作文范文解析：
Nowadays we cannot go anywhere without seeing advertisements of one kind or another. The penetration of advertising into our life has gone so far that sometimes we even feel amazed by its ubiquity. Advertising is, of course, very useful, informing us about what to buy, where to buy and how to buy, but it also has negative effects, especially by transforming what we regard as important in our life.
如今，我们到处都能看到这样或那样的广告。广告已经渗透到我们的生活中去了，有时我们甚至对它的无处不在感到惊讶。广告当然是非常有用的，它告诉我们该买什么，在哪里买，怎样买，但它也有负面影响，尤其是通过改变我们认为在生活中重要的东西。
解析：
（1）本段为开头段，通过论说广告的普遍性和无处不在来引入话题，然后提出广告的有用之处，并过渡到广告可能通过改变我们的思维方式来产生消极影响。
（2）penetration 渗透
（3）ubiquity 无处不在(n.)
（4）transform 改变
Surrounded by advertisements, we can easily be led to a belief that our life is all about buying things. This widespread consumerism can persuade us into buying many things we do not really need on the one hand, and make us less content withwhat we have on the other, and crave hopelessly for those unattainablecommodities. I still remember a few days ago when walking in front of a supermarket, I saw how a little girl, with her eyes glued to an advertising board,pestered her mother for the expensive toy on it that her mother apparently could not afford. Advertising, then, while providing us with useful commodities information, also creates the unwanted desire at our heart and makes us unhappy.
被广告所包围的我们，很容易就相信我们的生活就是买东西。这种广泛的消费主义一方面可以说服我们购买许多我们并不真正需要的东西，另一方面也让我们对自己拥有的东西不那么满意，而对那些无法得到的商品孜孜以求。我还记得几天前，当我走过超市门口，看到一个小女孩，眼睛盯着广告牌，缠着她妈妈买显然买不起的昂贵玩具。因此，广告在为我们提供有用的商品信息时，也在我们的心中制造了不必要的欲望，使我们不快乐。
解析：
（1）本段论述广告可能引起的消极后果之一：让我们深陷消费主义而不快乐。
（2）consumerism 消费主义
（3）persuade someone into... 劝某人做......
（4）be content with... 对......满意
（5）crave for... 渴望......
（6）unattainable 无法获得的
（7）glue to... 粘在......上
（8）pester for 缠着要......
（9）apparently 明显的(=obviously)
Meanwhile, lured by the promises of advertising, some people may choose to commit crimes, which then causes a lot of social problems. A student, for instance, may rob his classmate of an iPhone 8, for he has been told by advertising that iPhone 8 is superior to its previous versions. Likewise, an official may take bribery to buy an expensive house by the lake because the advertising says the luxury of living there is superb.
同时，在广告承诺的诱惑下，有些人可能会选择犯罪，这就造成了很多社会问题。例如，一个学生可能会抢劫他的同学的iPhone 8，因为他从广告中得知，iPhone 8比以前的版本优越。同样地，一位官员可能会接受贿赂，在湖边买一套昂贵的房子，因为广告上写着住在那里可以尽享奢华。
解析：
（1）本段写广告可能给我们造成的更严重的影响：让我们犯罪。
（2）lure 诱惑
（3）be superior to... 比......更好
（4）luxury 奢华
（5）superb 绝妙的；的
Seen in this light, advertising can affect our way of thinking about life and we, therefore, should be cautious about its negative influences while enjoying the benefits it brings us.
从这个角度看，广告会影响我们对生活的思考方式，因此，我们在享受广告给我们带来的好处的同时，也应该谨慎对待它的负面影响。
解析：
（1）结尾段，总结前文观点。
（2）seen in this light 从这个角度看
（3）cautious 谨慎小心的

2019年11月16日雅思大作文题目对孩子的成长，家庭内外的影响哪个更大？The family has a great influence on children’s development, but the influence from outside of the home plays a bigger part in children’s life. Discuss both these views and give your opinion.
雅思写作真题.jpg
解析&审题
本题与2013年6月15日的雅思考题是部分重合的，2013年6月15日要求比较家庭和媒体对孩子成长的影响，而本次没有限定为媒体，而是更为广泛，要求比较家庭内和家庭外对孩子成长的影响。
本文审题的核心是要比较家庭内和家庭外对孩子成长的影响。题目中明确提出的观点之一是“家庭外的影响更大”（bigger），而不是简单的“有人认为家庭对孩子成长有影响，其他人认为家庭外对孩子成长也有影响”。考生必须对这个“bigger”作出回应。我们无非可以采取如下几种回应策略：
1. 同意题目观点：家庭内外对孩子成长都产生影响，但家庭外对孩子成长影响更大。
2. 不同意题目观点：家庭内外对孩子成长都产生影响，但不能说家庭外的影响更大。
3. 辩证同意题目观点：家庭内外对孩子成长都产生影响，在某些问题上家庭内的影响大，但在另外一些问题上家庭外的影响更大。
本文采取第三种写作策略，认为在培养孩子积极情感方面，家庭内作用更大，但在培养孩子学习和社会交往能力方面，家庭外的作用更大。
以下请看唐老师的高分范文。
老师笔记
The emotional and social development of young children has a direct effect on their future overall development. At different stages in their life, children's development is under the influence of the family members at home as well as teachers, friends, and other factors outside of the home.
小孩子的情感和与人交往的发展直接影响着他们未来的全面发展。在生命的不同阶段，孩子的发展受到家庭成员以及家庭以外的老师、朋友等因素影响。
解析
（1） 本段引出话题并提出观点：不同阶段，孩子都受到来自家庭和家庭之外的影响。
（2） Overall 整体的
（3） Outside of the home 家庭之外
Family certainly plays a crucial role in children’s development, as family members are the first people that young children have regular contact with. Ensuring that children in the early years have their basic needs met can help them establish secure attachments, which is the cornerstone of their emotional development. Moreover, we will know how important a loving, nurturing home is to children by noting that many young law-breakers are from broken families. An emotionally deficient child may easily be led astray and get involved in antisocial crimes. At the same time, he/she will also find it hard to build healthy emotional relationship with others and therefore have to live in undesired seclusion.
无疑，家庭在孩子的发展中起着至关重要的作用，因为家庭成员是孩子经常接触的批人。确保年幼的孩子满足基本需要可以帮助他们建立安全的情感关系，这是他们情感发展的基石。此外，如果注意到许多年轻的违法者都来自破碎的家庭，我们就会知道，一个充满爱心、有教养的家对孩子们来说是多么重要。有情绪缺陷的孩子很容易被引入歧途，陷入反社会罪行。同时，他/她也会发现与他人建立健康的情感关系很困难，因此不得不生活在难受的孤独中。
解析
（1） 本段讨论家庭对小孩发展情感能力的作用。本段先从正面论述，然后从反面论述。
（2） Crucial 关键的
（3） Ensure 确保
（4） Cornerstone 基石；基础
（5） Law-breaker 违法者
（6） Deficient 有缺陷的
（7） To be led astray 被引入歧途
（8） To get involved in... 陷入......
（9） Live in seclusion 生活在孤独中
As children grow older, factors outside of home such as teachers, TV, friends, to name only a few, come into play and influence their life. As this is a time for children’s social and intellectual development, these factors become even more important than home. Children rely on their teachers in school for academic progress, their peer classmates for developing social and leadership skills, and various media for forming their world outlook. It is, indeed, reasonable to say that as they grow up, children are moving further and further away from the influence of their parents.
随着孩子年龄的增长，家庭以外的因素，如老师、电视、朋友等等，就会起作用并影响他们的生活。因为这时孩子们处于社会交往和智力发展期间，这些因素甚至比家更重要。孩子们依靠学校的老师来取得学业进步，依靠他们的同学来培养社交和领导技能，依靠各种媒体来形成世界观。的确，可以合理地说，随着孩子的成长，他们越来越远离父母的影响。
解析
（1） 本段讨论随着孩子年龄增大，家庭外的影响越来越重要。本段采用列举论证方法。
（2） To name only a few ......等等
（3） Intellectual 智力的
（4） Peer classmate 同龄的同学
（5） World outlook 世界观
To conclude, both parents at home and friends, teachers, and media outside play an important role in children’s development. The family has the greatest influence on children’s emotional development when they are young, and factors outside of home play a greater role in children’s intellectual and social development on their way to maturity.
总之，家庭内父母与家庭外朋友、老师以及媒体对孩子的发展都起着重要的作用。当孩子年幼时，家庭对他们的情感发展的影响，而在他们走向成熟的过程中，家庭以外的因素对儿童的智力和社会发展起着更大的作用。
解析
（1） 本段总结，并提出自己的观点。
（2） Maturity 成熟
