写作小贴士
针对此类地图题,需提醒大家注意的是不能放过对其“细节内容”进行捕捉与描述,具体如下:第一、仔细观察并figure out图例注解所代表的具体含义(辨别每个图中都“有”何物体);第二、注意此类题目的考点,具体而言,莫过于there be句式的运用、passive voice和active voice的结合使用以及方位词语的使用;第三、呈现body paragraph(s)时,首先将第一张图上所示物体客观地描述出来,对接下的一张亦或是几张图描述时,要与之前所描述过的图进行对比。

【2012年6月9日考试寄语】
时至今日,小作文无论是Bar Chart,Line Graph,Table,还是Pie Chart,拼图亦或是Map都有考察,Flow Chart/Diagram依旧神龙见首不见尾,来去无影踪!常言道:心急吃不了热豆腐(More haste, less speed!)还得继续with a trite remark:革命尚未成功,同志仍需努力!只要“敌军”尚未露面,我们就不可放松警惕,要时刻做好迎敌的准备,不要相信神马预测,都只是浮云而已!只要用心练习好每一类题目,脚踏实地,一步一个脚印儿,并时刻铭记:Chance favors the prepared mind!考分必将如你所愿,因为我只相信一点一滴的量变(industrious),终将成就你质变的辉煌(illustrious)!
Writing Task Two
A类考试题目
Some people argue that the government should set up a fund to provide money for the arts, while others maintain that the money ought to be used for the public health and education.
Discuss both views and give your own opinion?
题目翻译
有些人认为政府应该建立基金支持艺术事业的发展,而另外一些人则认为这些钱应用于发展公共医疗和教育事业。
讨论这两种看法并给出你的观点?
题目关键词
government; set up a fund; the arts; the public health; education
写作小贴士
此类题目是典型的argumentative essay双边类的写法,这类问法在剑桥系列丛书五册到八册中共出现过九次,建议此类文章分为四段来写,body paragraphs分为两段展开,首先,第二段可以写政府set up a fund to provide money发展艺术事业的诸多benefits,比如:To begin with, the arts make money, to be specific, arts organizations create jobs, spur local economy, and generate tax revenues. Then, the arts attract tourists, for a primary reason for travel is to experience the cultural offerings of other areas. The arts bring people to town and keep then there much longer. Last but not least, the arts provide a high rate of return on public investment. The arts strengthen a community in many ways. One investment can reap many rewards 。其次,第三段可以写利用这些钱发展public health和education的种种reasons,for example, in the first place, spending money on the public health is critical to reducing health care costs and improving health in one country and it is the heart and soul of public health and is crucial in preventing and managing disease as well. In the second place, these funds will also go to screening that is crucial in catching the infection early so people can stay healthy for as long as possible. In the next place, to remain competitive, the nation must increase the number of college graduates. Cutting the spending on education would put college out of reach for many low-income students。最后,在文章收尾处present your own viewpoint。以上观点仅供参考(brainstorming),在具体写作过程中酌情使用!
