剑桥雅思大作文启示录（剑8）

　　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，作为新东方写作老师，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8(4套)

　　C8T1

　　Some people think that parents should teach children how to be good members of society. Others, however, believe that school is the place to learn this.

　　Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

　　C8T2

　　Nowadays the way many people interact with each other has changed because of technology.

　　In what ways has technology affected the types of relationships people make?

　　Has this become a positive or negative development?

　　C8T3

　　Increasing the price of petrol is the best way to solve growing traffic and pollution problems.

　　To what extent do you agree or disagree?

　　What other measures do you think might be effective?

　　C8T4

　　In some countries the average weight of people is increasing and their levels of health and fitness are decreasing.

　　What do you think are the causes of these problems and what measures could be taken to solve them?

　　与剑7不同，剑8大作文的题干长度恢复到正常状态。但是剑8作文题目最大的特征体现在“综合”两个字上。比如(C8T2)In what ways has technology affected the types of relationships people make? Has this become a positive or negative development?，这就相当于report类型+agree类型。再比如

　　(C8T3)To what extent do you agree or disagree? What other measures do you think might be effective?，相当于考察agree类型+report类型中的solutions分析。所以要求考生对每种类型作文的结构“必须”非常熟悉，才能灵活地应用到这种综合类的作文。
