名師點撥：08年2月雅思寫作話題預測

　　08年一月份的考試已經過去了，回顧這三次考試，它們都是社會類話題，分別是關于犯罪，傳統經驗和就業的，除了26日(Some people think the pupils in some countries with high unemployment rate should be offered only primary education. There is no point in offering secondary education to those who have no hope of finding jobs. To what extent do you agree or disagree?)的題目審題會對大家造成一定障礙之外，其他兩個都是比較簡單的。就其類別而言，都是辯論類，算是比較正常的情況。另外一個對二月考生比較利好的消息就是，26日大家最懼怕的地圖題已經出現了，所以先烈們已經用熱血給我們后來者掃清了道路，我們可以放70 percent的心啦。但是圓圓老師并不排除出現二般的情況，即GZs看到我們過年很不爽，2月流程圖再現！07年就有這樣的先例！

　　綜合以上因素，我認為二月份考試大作文仍然會以社會類為主，如政府投資和義務問題(政府對教育、醫療、藝術、環境、公共安全的義務，對文化的保護)，其次關注教育類，第三是環境和科技(例如電腦、網絡、電視等新事物對人們生活帶來的改變)。預測有風險，圓圓老師冒險出了一下幾個題目，請大家按照上課時候訓練方法，找出分論點，并將其翻譯為準確主題觀點。

　　1.It is now possible to perform. everyday tasks as banking, shopping and business transactions without meeting people face to face. What are effects it may bring on the individuals and society as a whole?

　　2.Will modern technology, such as the Internet, ever replace the book or the written word as the sole source of information?

　　5.Some think young should take a job as soon as they leave school to develop career. Others think they should further their study in university to have a successful career. Discuss.

　　8. Scientific research should be carried out and controlled by governments, rather than by private companies. Agree or disagree?

People in different countries watch the same movies, read the same books and have the same fashions. To what extent do the advantages of these communication outweigh the disadvantages?

　　10.Some people think the university education is to prepare students for employment, others think it has other functions. Discuss and say what other functions university education should have
