雅思作文答疑
Is it a ok to start task 2 essays with a question?2. 在長作文中，是否可以用問題開頭？
No, that would be more journalistic than academic style.不可以。這樣看起來更像是新聞，而非學(xué)術(shù)寫作。
In writing task 2, is it better to write four paragraphs or five?在長作文部分，寫4段好還是寫5段好？
There isn't really a 'best' way; it's possible to write a band 9 essay with four, five, or even six paragraphs. My preference is for four paragraphs because this encourages you to go into more detail in each of the two main body paragraphs. More detail and depth = a better essay!并不存在最佳選擇。4段、5段或6段的作文都有可能拿到9分。我個(gè)人更喜歡4段，因?yàn)檫@能促使你在文章主體的2個(gè)段落里進(jìn)行更深入的討論。更多的細(xì)節(jié)+更多的深度=更好的文章。
Is it a problem if I mixed British and American spellings?如果混用英式和美式拼寫，會(huì)有什么問題嗎？
Not really. This isn't something that is likely to change your score.不太會(huì)。這些不太可能對(duì)你的分?jǐn)?shù)造成影響。
If I only put my opinion in the conclusion, will I lose marks?如果我只在總結(jié)中寫了我的觀點(diǎn)，會(huì)丟分嗎?
Possibly, yes. If you want a high score, your opinion should be clear "throughout" the essay (if the question asks for it). State your opinion in the introduction, then explain it in the main body, and repeat or summarise it in the conclusion.可能會(huì)。如果你想要高分，你的觀點(diǎn)應(yīng)該在整個(gè)文章中清晰體現(xiàn)（如果題目要求這樣）。在開頭陳述觀點(diǎn)，在正文進(jìn)行解釋，然后在總結(jié)部分進(jìn)行重復(fù)或概括。
Is it ok to use the words "I", "my" and "we" in writing task 2?長作文中是否可以使用I、me和we？
Yes, it's perfectly ok to use those words. You might be told to avoid them in university assignments, but the advice for IELTS is different. If the question asks for your opinion, you will probably need to write "I agree", "I believe" or "in my opinion".可以，完全沒問題。你可能聽說在大學(xué)作業(yè)中要避免出現(xiàn)這些詞，但對(duì)于雅思來說情況并不相同。如果問題是問你的觀點(diǎn)，你可能需要用到I agree，I believe或in my opinion。
Can we invent facts or figures in writing task 2?長作文中是否可以使用編造的事實(shí)或數(shù)據(jù)？
I don't recommend inventing statistics or news stories. I always think that doing this makes writing seem 'false'. Just explain your own ideas and opinions, and give reasons and examples.我不建議編造數(shù)據(jù)或故事。我總是認(rèn)為這樣會(huì)讓文章看起來很假。只要解釋你自己的想法和觀點(diǎn)，并給出原因和例子就可以了。
Can we use quotations in writing task 2 and the speaking test?在長作文和口語考試中，是否可以引用名人名言？
Personally I don't recommend including quotations because it's difficult to use them in a natural and relevant way. It usually seems like the student has 'forced' the quotation into his/her work, and this won't impress the examiner.我個(gè)人不推薦使用名人名言。因?yàn)槟愫茈y找到和題目相關(guān)又不生硬的'名言。經(jīng)常能看到考生在文章中強(qiáng)行引用名言，這并不能給考官帶來好印象。
How do examiners know whether I'm using 'memorised language'?考官如何知道我在背誦答案？
All of the language in your brain is memorised, so I should explain this properly. The examiner would be impressed by a memorised phrase like "greenhouse gas emissions contribute to global warming", if the question asked you to explain an environmental problem. However, examiners are not impressed by the kind of phrase that students think they can use for any question e.g. "This is a controversial issue that has led to heated debate among people on both sides". Can you see the difference?大腦里的語言都是背好了的，因此我會(huì)用適當(dāng)?shù)姆绞浇忉屵@個(gè)問題。如果考題是讓你解釋環(huán)境問題，“greenhouse gas emissions contribute to global warming”這類事先背好的答案會(huì)讓考官印象很好。但是，考生們認(rèn)為有些短語可以用于任何問題，例如“This is a controversial issue that has led to heated debate among people on both sides”。考官對(duì)這類答案不會(huì)有好印象。你可能找出它們的區(qū)別嗎？
Should we give essays a title?應(yīng)該給作文起標(biāo)題嗎？
No, your essays don't need titles, so don't waste time inventing one.不。作文不需要標(biāo)題，不要浪費(fèi)時(shí)間在這上面。
Is it a good idea to use headings to organise my essays?給作文段落起標(biāo)題好嗎？
No, you should never use headings in any of your IELTS essays. Don't include lists or bullet points either. All of these things are considered incorrect format.不好。在雅思作文中永遠(yuǎn)不要使用標(biāo)題。也不要使用列表和編號(hào)列表。這些都被視為不正確的格式。
Is it ok to write "I think" or "I like to say" in my task 2 essay?在長作文中可以用I think或I like to say嗎？
Those phrases are a bit informal. I prefer to write "I believe" or "I would argue".這些短語有些不夠正式。我喜歡用I believe或I would argue。
Should I start new paragraphs by missing a line or with an indentation?段落用空行區(qū)分還是開頭空格區(qū)分？
Both ways are fine, but I think it's clearer if you miss a line.都可以，但我覺得空行顯得更清楚。
