本文来自雅思作文网liuxue86.com《1-4月出新题方式总结》。 今年的题目已经考了1/3,出新题的方式我们可以观察出有下面四种:
A 改造老题(或者说出不是新题的新题):
这是剑桥今年用得最多的手段。原因?省钱。What else could it possibly be? 事实上,今年的“新题”有一半以上是这样出的,比如4月18的考题 If a product is good or meets people’s needs then people will buy it. Advertising is unnecessary and is no more than a form of entertainment. To what extent do you agree or disagree? 明显就是我的4月预测中的第7题 Advertising only boosts sales of products, but not the quality of products. Do you agree? 改造后的结果。再比如4月25的考题 Students learn more effectively through computers and the Internet than with teachers. To what extent do you agree? 当然就是对远程教育(distance learning)那道题的翻版。再比如关于国际援助的题目,比如environmental problems是不是可以通过individuals’ effort解决的题目;
B 对自身的重复:
比如2月28的Improving sports facilities is the best way to improve public health. What is your opinion? 和3月21的 It is more effective to promote healthy lifestyles than to cure the already ill in terms of improving the public health. What is your view? 就是一道题在一个月内换换形式再出一次。原因?还是省钱。
C 把口语题改成写作题:
去年下半年我已经明确提出雅思写作出现了把口语题目改成写作题目的倾向(去年10月-12月考的fashionable clothing,traditional games和charities都是这个倾向的体现)今年这个倾向仍然明显,比如3月7的Some people think music is just a form of entertainment while others think it plays more important roles. 原因?呵呵。
D 真正的新题:
这种新题,也只有这种新题,让我肃然起敬。可惜4个月里,我只看到一道这样出的新题,就是2009年全年的第一场考试(肯定不是巧合,如果你手里有一大堆小朋友已经吃过的糖果,只有一块糖果他们/她们从来没有吃过,你一定会把它放在一个纪念日给小朋友对吧?如果纪念日给的还是老糖果,小朋友们一定会说你是个不负责的叔叔/阿姨)我决定用蓝色字体向这道真正的新题致敬:
1 月10:Some people think the technology available to individuals today is increasing the gap between the rich and the poor. To what extent do you agree?
