写作考前练习（下）

TASK 1

图片：

又将是新的一个月的考试，2017年的前3个月，图片题每月不落，这说明图片题现在又进入了一个小的高峰期。而且其中3个月都是在月初的第一场考试中出现。所以建议各位从月初开始，就要做好准备。另外鉴于过去3个月流程-地图-流程的规律来看，4月的图片题应该优先警惕地图题（地图可参考剑9 test 1的题目）。

图表：

虽然很出乎意料，但是柱图还是赤裸裸的连续出现了3场。不过退一步来说，这种“三连击”的情况尽管很少出现，但毕竟还是有过先例（去年10月的饼图，前年5月的柱图和前年9月的线图），但是单一图表“四连击”的情况，至少在楼主的记忆里还没有过先例，所以4-8如果再出现柱图那就真是破天荒了。至于其他题型，和柱图同属高频题的表格必然是首要重点。另外复合类图表已经有半年没有出现过了，也值得各位关注（表格参考剑7 test 1的题目，复合类图表参考剑8 test 1的题目）。

TASK 2

题型：

沿用之前考前练习中提到的内容：过去12个月中，说明文一共只出现了6场，而且从来没有连续两个月都出现说明文的情况。按照这样一个规律，既然3月出现了说明文，那么4月说明文再次出现的概率就非常之小了。

话题：

之前考前练习中就已经反复提及过：从去年下半年开始，很多2014-2015年的原题开始重现，大作文基本确定进入了一个新的轮回期。而鉴于前几期考前练习的范围有较大的跑偏，所以本期考前练习楼主尝试变更形式，将题目考前练习细化到每一个小的分类话题中，因为之前听过楼主课的人应该知道，2014-2015的很多题目其实可以化零为整，总结出通用思路模块，从而做到局部的以不变应万变。

小作文

The table below shows the employment rate and average annual salary of graduates from the Australian University.

Fields

$59,000

$32,000

范文

The form compares the recruitment rate and annual average income of graduates majoring in six various fields in the Australian University.

Clearly, the employment rate of graduates learning health is the highest, at 93% while their annual salary ranks the second lowest place among all students. It is interesting to note that college students who specialize in law and engineering and IT earn the most wages each year, as high as $59,000 although they are less successful in finding jobs compared with the former ones.

The success rate in job seeking for art graduates is a little higher than that of those studying social disciplines, with 78% and 76% respectively. Similarly, more payments are obtained by art students. Unfortunately, only 62% of science graduates succeed in finding employment, and they merely gain $32,000, which is the least income, every year.

Overall, it can be seen that there is a slight distinction in terms of graduates’ employment rate while bigger differences exist in the amount of their annual salary.

大作文

In many countries, people decide to have children at a later age than in the past? Why? Do advantages of this development outweigh disadvantages？

范文

It is a common tendency that the younger generation prefers to postpone their parenthood until late30’s or early40’s.

This trend involved in several reasons and the most rooted one is that compared with the generation of their parents and grandparents, the youth bear enormous mental stress and are confronted with fiercer competitions in the workplace. Obviously, under such a circumstance, committing to a family or looking after children at20’s, which means tremendous dedication and responsibility is not a preferable choice. In addition, the cost of raising children is higher especially in most metropolis around the world. The statistics shows the annual expenditure on children’s training courses, foods, clothing as well as toys before being enrolled into primary school is at least as high as 100,000 yuan in Shanghai, a megacity ofChina. It is difficult for a young couple to shoulder the heavy financial burden. What’s more, the pursuit of independence, freedom and individual development is more intense than before. Having a child early, the parents can hardly spare time in cultivating interests, hanging out with friends or enjoying the romantic moment only belonging to each other.

Regarding to impacts of this lifestyle, people from different backgrounds advocate diverse opinions. As far as I am concerned, the benefits are far more than drawbacks. First and foremost, it is much easier for those parents to cover the expenses on child rearing. It must be admitted that the salary of new employees is much lower than middle-aged experienced colleagues; besides most entrepreneurs achieve success in fortune at their30’s or even40’s. Apparently, a steady and an affluent economic foundation enables children to receive first-tier education and experience higher living standards. It is worth mentioning that parents’ influence serves the backbone in the formation of children’s characters. A father or mother who is mature in terms of mental development and pressure management sets a good example for their kids. In other words, children raised in such a family tend to be gentle, patient and self-disciplined.

In conclusion, it is a quite normal phenomenon in contemporary society. And, parents should deliberate and make full preparations before making the decision to give birth to a child.
