2024.3.16写作分析

 

小作文

The pie charts below show the percentage of time working adults spent on different activities in a particular country in 1958 and 2008.

Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.

 

Percentage of day doing different activities 1958

Percentage of day doing different activities 2008

本次小作文考察的是双时间动态饼图。对图的分析依旧是可以按照趋势来进行主体段落的写作。比如，都呈现出上升趋势的Traveling to work, Working, Relaxing at home可以分为一组，而呈现出下降趋势的Sleeping和Going out可以放在一起描写，Others保持不变。数据上的倍数关系也可以进行描写。整体难度较小。

 

 

大作文

Not enough students choose science subjects in university in many countries. What are the reasons for this problem? What are the effects on the society?

 

本次大作文考察的是教育类报告类题型，题干要求讨论的science subjects并不是什么陌生的话题了，辩论类考题当中也有类似的话题，如Some people think that students should only study science subjects. Other subjects are not important to them. To what extent do you agree or disagree? 本次题目要求讨论选择理科学习的学生较少的原因和对于社会的影响，烤鸭们或多或少还是能想到一些点子和支撑证据的，但可能在拓展的过程当中会遇到一些阻碍，整体难度适中。

 

· Paragraph 1-Introduction-改写题目 + 写作目的陈述

It is a sad fact that an inadequate number of students are pursuing science subjects in higher education. Some underlying factors contributing to this trend as well as the potential consequences entailed will be discussed in this essay.

 

· Paragraph 2-Body 1-Answer to Question 1-Reasons

Reason 1: university attendees不愿意学习理科的很大一部分原因是理科专业难度大

Extension: (Example) 学生们普遍认为science subjects such as math, chemistry and physics are challenging and demanding, 比如他们经常需要deal with complex concepts and rigorous coursework, 这样一来很多的学生就有可能会shy from the perceived difficulties associated with science-related subjects since they lack confidence. 此外, 理科比较重视的standardized testing and academic performance 可能会使得学生的成绩不理想, 这也一定程度上导致了这样的情况。

Reason 2: 另一个学生不愿意学习STEM subjects (science, technology, engineering, math)的原因是lack of interest。

Extension: (Cause and Effect) 并不是所有人生来have a natural inclination for science, 他们可能觉得其他的一些学科more engaging, 从而选择了其他的学科。除此之外，有的学生lack the exposure to science-related subjects, 比如可能primary school and secondary school 缺乏basic equipment for scientific experiment, 这样一来学生们可能会一直觉得这些学科daunting and unapproachable且无趣, deterring them from choosing them。

 

· Paragraph 3-Body 2-Answer to Question 2-Effects

Effect 1: 这样的情况可能会导致shortage of skilled professionals in a certain field

Extension: (Cause and Effect) 因为更少的学生选择理科, so that science graduates who can make contribution to a specific science discipline 就会减少, 这样一来科学技术研究和创新will be largely impeded, or even hinder economic development。

Effect 2: 这样的趋势可能会使得一些social problems remain unsolved

Extension: (Example) Problems such as climate change and health crisis 都需要scientific and technological support, 如果没有相应的人才和专业的技能, the situation may aggravate and more causalities could be caused。

 

· Paragraph 4-Conclusion 

理科学习难度大和学生们缺乏兴趣是主要的原因，if there were not effective measures in place, even more serious problems might ensue 。
