雅思（写作）历年真题试卷汇编13(总分：10.00，做题时间：90分钟)一、 WRITING TASK 2(总题数：5，分数：10.00)1.WRITING TASK 2You should spend about 40 minutes on this task.（分数：2.00）__________________________________________________________________________________________解析：2.A recent newspaper article reports that a 14-year-old boy, who seriously damaged his school, got a punishment to clean streets instead of being sent to prison. Do you think young criminals should be sent to prison or should alternative forms of punishment be used? (2016-01-14)（分数：2.00）__________________________________________________________________________________________正确答案：(正确答案： Throughout history societies have concluded that there must be a balance between crime and punishment, and in some way, the punishment must fit the crime. However, the definition of 'to fit the crime' has changed with modern emphasis on human rights and the idea that the criminal should be reformed and turned into a useful citizen. This is especially true for young criminals. Prison essentially deprives people of their liberty and is needed for those criminals who are a danger to society, but the punishment is loss of freedom, not necessarily other deprivations. The danger is that criminals in prison meet others and end up re-offending. Young criminals are very susceptible to influence and, ideally, it is better to help them change their ways. A 14-year-old convicted of serious damage, such as arson, and sent to prison will be marked for life and will almost certainly end up deprived of education. This will make it difficult for him to get a job and support himself. The boy in question was made to clean the streets. It does not say if this involved the humiliation of having to wear a uniform making it obvious that he was being punished, or how long he was required to do this. Certainly it would cost less than keeping him in prison. The work he did would be useful. Hopefully he would not enjoy it and it would persuade him not to reoffend. There is, however, an alternative point of view. Many children convicted of criminal offences come from poor homes where they have been badly treated, and they have fallen behind in school. Rather than just imprison them, 'tough love' might help, where they are required to be disciplined, work hard, learn to read and write well, and sit school examinations, deal with problems such as drugs, alcohol and cope with relationship difficulties. This might take place in a secure school. Prison should be the last resort, and its emphasis, especially for young people, should be to prevent reoffending, by addressing whatever problem caused the original criminal behaviour.)解析：3.The news media have become much more influential in people's lives. Some people think it's a negative development. To what extent do you agree or disagree? (2016-01-23)（分数：2.00）__________________________________________________________________________________________正确答案：(正确答案： In the 21st century we have news available 24 hours a day, every day, and it comes from all over the world. Television newsreels, the Internet and newspapers all try to keep us informed and entertained. The world seems to get smaller as we hear of distant catastrophes, wars and serious illnesses as well as success stories of heroic feats, fantastic sporting achievements and scientific breakthroughs. The extent of influence on people's lives is debateable. People hear of disasters and sometimes give money to help. Some people, especially those who are medically trained, respond by joining organisations, such as Medecins Sans Frontiers (Doctors without Borders) and the Red Cross, and going to help. Fire and rescue personnel are often seen helping in disaster areas too. Much of what passes for news is bad — wars, shootings, naturaldisasters, although some programmes try to include celebration stories. Constant bad news can make people despondent, especially constant stories of atrocities and natural disasters. On the other hand, most people read or hear about events and think 'Oh dear' and carry on with their lives regardless, so it does not really affect them that much. The most important thing is that appliances have an 'off switch, and one has to pick up a newspaper to read it, so we have a choice. News programmes are there, all day, every day, and most of the information goes over our heads; we have learned to ignore it. Therefore, although it could be a negative experience for a few sensitive souls, generally it is not, and people are better informed as a result.)解析：4.In recent years, many countries focus on reducing the traffic on the road, for example, introducing the congestion tax on vehicles during rush hours. Do you think it is a positive or negative development? (2016-01-30)（分数：2.00）__________________________________________________________________________________________正确答案：(正确答案：Traffic continues to increase as people get more wealthy and able to afford their own transport. Many families have two, three or sometimes more cars, especially if they live in rural areas where public transport is not so good. As well as cars, increased global trade has led to more and more lorries on the road taking containers from ports inland. Using the Internet for shopping has led to more delivery vans taking goods to people's houses. All this has led to a huge increase in the amount of pollution, especially from the exhausts of diesel fuelled vehicles. This pollution has been scientifically shown to be the cause of many illnesses, cancer (especially lung cancer), stunted growth in children, poor intelligence in children, earlier deaths.... The list is endless. Of course, road traffic pollution is not the only form of pollution that is causing problems, but because it affects everyone, mainly city dwellers, it must be dealt with. Governments have tried many measures. Congestion charges to discourage people taking their cars into the cities are one. Park and Ride schemes, where people park their car and take a bus into the city usually at less cost than a city car park, operate in many cities, especially historic cities with narrow streets. Charging people to park at work and encouraging car-sharing schemes all help. The key to success is to provide alternatives, such as improved public transport; perhaps developing trams or building new underground lines, better, faster and cheaper trains, cycle routes with incentives to buy bikes and the possibility of borrowing a bike such as, in London's 'Boris bikes', all help. All these measures must be positive, because pollution is such a serious problem. In the short term there are disadvantages. Too many cyclists are killed or injured on the road. Public transport outside big cities is expensive and not as reliable as it could be. People want the freedom to come and go as they please by car. Cars are a status symbol for some. Attitudes need to change so that people are more conscious of the need to stop pollution and are prepared to do something about it, such as walk or cycle or use public transport where possible. Local authorities and the government need to make it easier for the public to do this.)解析：5.In some countries, there has been an increase in the number of parents who educate their children themselves at home instead of sending them to school. Do you think the advantages of this outweigh the disadvantages? (2016-02-13)（分数：2.00）__________________________________________________________________________________________正确答案：(正确答案：Until the twentieth century it was usual for wealthy people to educate their children at home, either themselves or by using a tutor. Queen Elizabeth II was educated at home. Her children were the first royals to go to school. In the nineteenth century when the country needed an educated workforce, schools had to be provided because parents worked and were often not well educated. The culmination of this was the 1944 Education Act which made secondaryeducation available to all to the age of 15, and made the provision that parents had to educate their children by sending them to school or 'otherwise'. It therefore became the norm for most children to go to school, but some parents chose to educate them 'otherwise', supported by a group called 'Education Otherwise'. Going to school has many advantages. Children are socialised: they learn to give and take, to share, to get along with others. There are opportunities for playing team games, playing in musical groups and other group activities. Many schools have facilities like swimming pools and other sports facilities that most people do not have at home. Teachers are trained and know how to teach and encourage their charges, assisted by an army of clerical staff, support staff, cleaners, cooks, dinner ladies and so on. For older children, the teachers know how to prepare them for public examinations and university entrance. Most teachers at this stage are specialists in their subject. Most children like school and work to the best of their ability, enjoy meeting friends and benefitting from the help of sympathetic, supportive adults. Sometimes, for some children, the system does not work and children are very unhappy. One solution is to educate them at home. It might be that the parents want to educate their children at home for religious or other reasons. This means no travelling is involved, which can take several hours a day. Children can learn exactly at their own pace and focus on things that really interest them with excellent courses available on the Internet. An exceptionally clever individual can work at their own level, perhaps preparing for public examinations several years earlier than their peers. Home educated children have the opportunity to take part in sports such as horse riding that are not usually available in school. Children with serious illness too can be better off at home. However, educating children at home demands a huge commitment from the parents. If the parent does not work, or works from home, part time, this can be a solution. On the other hand, no time is needed for transporting children to school and there is no need for school uniforms, so children do not have to get it all ready each day. For some children the advantages definitely outweigh the disadvantages, and there are children whose parents might choose education'otherwise'. In the case of the vast majority school is the means of education, ensuring a good standard and relieving working parents of the need to teach their children themselves.)解析：。

雅思(写作)历年真题试卷汇编3(题后含答案及解析)
雅思（写作）历年真题试卷汇编3(题后含答案及解析) 题型有：1. WRITING TASK 1WRITING TASK 1You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.1．The charts below show what UK graduate and postgraduate students who did not go into full-time work did after leaving college in 2008. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.正确答案：The bar charts provide data of the UK graduates and postgraduates who did different types of work, further study or were unemployed after graduation in 2008. For UK graduates, the majority of the population chose further study as their destination, reaching 29,665, which is considerably higher than the sum of the population (21,235) who chose to work: part-time work (17,735) and voluntary work (3,500). The number of graduates who could not get a job was nearly the same as that of part-time work with 16,235. Similar to the distribution of the numbers of graduates, the number of postgraduates going to do voluntary work was also the smallest with only 345 and that of unemployment was 1,625. Compared with graduates, the gap between the numbers of people who did part-time work and continued to study was much narrower with 2,535 and 2,725 respectively, which resulted in that the number of postgraduates who got a job (2,880) was slightly over that of further study. In general, the largest number of both graduates and postgraduates chose further study as their destination, while the number of voluntary workers was the least. However, more postgraduate students did part-time work than graduate students. 涉及知识点：小作文（看图作文）2．The chart below shows the total number of minutes (in billions) of telephone calls in the UK, divided into three categories, from 1995-2002. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.正确答案：The chart shows the time spent by UK residents on different types of telephone calls between 1995 and 2002. Local fixed line calls were the highest throughout the period, rising from 72 billion minutes in 1995 to just under 90 billion in 1998. After peaking at 90 billion the following year, these calls had fallen back to the 1995 figure by 2002. National and international fixed line calls grew steadily from 38 billion to 61 billion at the end of the period in question, though the growth slowed over the last two years. There was a dramatic increase in mobile calls from 2 billion to 46 billion minutes. This rise was particularly noticeable between 1999 and 2002, during which time the use of mobile phones tripled. To sum up, although local fixed line calls were still the most popular in 2002, the gapbetween the three categories had narrowed considerably over the second half of the period in question. 涉及知识点：小作文（看图作文）3．The graph below shows the quantities of goods transported in the UK between 1974 and 2002 by four different modes of transport. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.正确答案：The line graph illustrates the amount of goods delivered by four different types of transport in the UK from 1974 to 2002. The quantity of goods transported by road was always the highest. In 1974, it was about 70 million tonnes, which was much higher than the quantities delivered by other transports, roughly 40 million for water and rail and just 5 million for pipeline. Then, it showed an overall increasing trend, though there were occasional fluctuations before it reached slightly less than 100 million tonnes in 2002. The amounts of goods transported by water and rail were very close in the first 4 years of this time period. However, since 1978 they showed different developing trends, generally upward for water and downward for rail. In 2002 the quantity delivered by water reached 65 million tonnes and that of rail also exceeded the level of 1974, because since 1995 it started to rise again. The amount of goods carried by pipeline was always the least, but it kept climbing from 5 million tonnes in 1974 to 22 million tonnes in 1995, when it plateaued at that level till 2002. In summary, the quantities of goods delivered in the UK by four different means of transport showed an overall rising trend, except for the rail which fluctuated in the period in question. 涉及知识点：小作文（看图作文）4．The table below gives information on consumer spending on different items in five different countries in 2002. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.正确答案：The table illustrates how money was spent on three different categories of items in five countries in 2002. The percentage of expenditure on food, drinks, tobacco was the highest for all the countries. Turkish people spent the highest (32.14%), which was followed by Ireland with 28.91%. Italians, the Spanish and Swedes spent similar proportions of their money on such items, among which Sweden’s percentage was the lowest (15.77%). The gap between these five countries was considerable, when we see the percentage of Sweden was about half that of Turkey. The percentages of money spent on clothing and footwear were similar across these five countries, ranging between 5% and 10%, with Italy the most (9%) and Sweden the least (5.4%). The rest clustered above 6%, but less than 7%. Compared with the two categories already analysed, the consumer expenditure on leisure/education was noticeably lower, especially Spain with a percentage of less than 2%. Comparatively, the Turkish spent the highest percentage of their money on leisure and education, but still lower than 5%. Overall, the five countries had very close spending habits. Food, drinks and tobacco had the highest value, while leisureand education had the least. 涉及知识点：小作文（看图作文）。
