2018年7月19日雅思写作考试回忆及解析 TASK 1 The chart shows the average class size in 6 countries in 2006, and compare them with world average class size. (Word counts: 156) The bar chart illustrates how the average number of students in primary school and lower secondary school classes varied in 6 different countries in the year 2006 and the figure for the global average. It is apparent that on average, the approximately 23 students constitute a class globally both for both types of schools. Overall, lower secondary schools had larger class size than primary schools, except the UK. The average class sizes in South Korea, Japan and the UK ware much larger than the world average. South Korea had the largest class size, with around 32 and 29 students for primary school and lower secondary school respectively. The pattern was similar in Japan and the UK, but with smaller class sizes, at about 27 students. The rest of the six countries had fairly similar number of students in a class to that of the global average. The figure ranged from 22 to 24 in Mexico, Denmark and Iceland. TASK 2 题目类别：生活类 提问方式：混合提问类 考试题目： These days, an increasing number of people in many cities know little about their neighbors and do not have a sense of community. What do you think are the causes and what solutions can you suggest? (Word count： 457) The significant rises of the population, fast paced life, crime rate and dependency on technology in the urban areas make more people become unacquainted and unfriendly to their neighbours. However, there are measures that can be taken to alleviate this issue. In today’s technology dependent era, people are mostly busy with their own work. Major streets in the cities are filled with busy people walking fast to reach their office or business place. They are even busy talking to their office colleagues and family members over the phone. After they return home late evening, they watch television, use computers and the Internet or spend time with family members. They scarcely have any time to socialise with neighbours. In some scenarios, people do not even know who live next door in city areas. These are the everyday scenarios in the cities where social interactions could be rarely seen as individuals have no time to socialise and much focused on their own work or personal interests. Again, the rampant acceleration of crimes in the urban community makes individual become unnecessarily cautious and suspicious about other people, especially with the people they meet for the very first time. Even trusting their own neighbourhood would be tough for them as they are in constant fear of being harmed. As a result inhabitants of cities tend to become isolated as they are afraid to mingle because of undeveloped acquaintance. Unlike rural areas, where comparatively fewer people live together, city areas are highly populated and it is not unlikely that several thousands of people live in a block. Maintaining social relationship with all of them is this thus quite impossible. On the other hand, considering possible measures to improve a sense of community in the neighbourhood, community officials must organise programmes regularly to encourage camaraderie. Secondly, building more parks, social gathering places, community centres and children’s playground in the community could be a good measure to let people socialise and know each other. This is also helpful for meeting friends, bonding with family and neighbours. As a result, people living in the community would develop a sense of friendship. Positive news and events among community members should be highlighted in media to eradicate the fear people have about unknown people. Finally, organising different community groups to help people find others with same interest and to share common passions is a very effective measure to help people enhance their neighbouring bonds and relationship in my opinion. To sum it up, city life and overwhelming population should not be hindrances to our sense of community and our relationship with our neighbours. It would be nicer for the community to develop a friendly environment to create a better place to live in with all the neighbours. 相关资料 |
