2008年11月雅思考生写作必看
2008年11月雅思考生写作必看最近全球经济江河日下，许多朋友心情不是很开，想当年意气风发，现在却是节衣缩食，甚至波及留学市场。
其实小新在这里一直是留学市场的"巴菲特"，就是"别人在最恐惧时我贪婪，别人在最贪婪时我恐惧。
"现在的留学拿澳洲为例，平均学费由于汇率的关系一年至少省下5万人民币，再加上生活费8万至少，两年（通常硕士的学期）就会在16万。
英国也很爽的，一年也会省下近6万，说不定到你留学的时候会省得更多。
在经济危机的时候，与其作一份工资微薄的工作，还不如选择性价比更高的留学，待到学成时，很可能已等到"柳暗花明"时。
所以现在大家如果想圆留学梦的时候，应该毫不犹豫地前行。
11月份的雅思考试并不会像天气和金融那么寒冷，10月份的2号球连考两次，短期可能性已不大。
3号球和1号球最为可能出现在11月，同时稍加预防5号球。
但是个人觉得1号球甚至必考，这是澳洲的信息，大家不得不认，3号球关键是两段论：From physical to mental。
小作文个人觉得今年的最后一次流程图可能会出现，因为十二月份几乎是一个从不考偷袭题型的月份，那么我们就可以看看我流程图最的总结，每月都提及，不再细说。
练习的大作文：1)The world of work is changing rapidly, so people cannot always depend on their jobs. What are the reasons ofsuch phenomenon and offer some measures to solve it.2) The main purpose of libraries is to provide books, therefore they should not use limited resources and space and should be replaced by computer software, DVDs etc. Do you agree or disagree?3) Lectures were used in the past as an old way of teaching a large number of students. As new technology is now available for education, some people suggest that there is no justification for lectures. To what extent do you agree or disagree?4) Some people think government should invest in art, but others think it should finance health care and education. Discuss and give your opinion.【资料精选，适合职场人士使用借鉴参考。
