【口语】Describe a healthy lifestyle you know.
You should say:
What it is
How you got to know it
What people would do when living in this lifestyle
And explain why it is healthy
题目来源:Part 2
思路分析:
这个话题的理解难度比较低,并且回答起来会相对来说比较流畅。因为在当代社会的大背景下,拥有一个健康的生活方式已经成为了人们日常生活话题中经常讨论的问题之一,无论你是在校学生,还是上班族,对这个话题都不陌生,并且身边的人都会提供很多相关的语料。
所以这个话题的第一个难点就在于学生们是否可以用一个有逻辑的框架都描述这个话题,让听的人能够轻松的跟上你的思路并且理解你想要表达的思想。第二个难点就在于如何详尽的将自己的语料流利的用英文。
参考答案:
Speaking of healthy life, it is something we usually talk about but only a few of us really follow the rules to maintain it, especially for young generation in our modern society.
We can often see this slogan on the internet ‘what we eat defines what we become’, and from my point of view, healthy living style has greatly rely on your eating habit. Having a balanced diet means eating a variety of foods to achieve and maintain a healthy body weight. Besides, keeping a healthy lifestyle is alsothe combination of physical and psychological well-being.
For example, my roommate Mark was always insisting us to wake up very early in the morning and then took us to the playground to do some physical exercises. It really helps us to get rid of some bad habits, because we used to stay up late at night and oversleep the next morning, it is easier for us to get tired and also it had a big impact on our learning efficiency. Besides, more importantly, people nowadays have a sedentary lifestyle and pay little attention to the future influence which may bring by the unhealthy lifestyle.
Let’s take the Chinese high school students as an example, they usually skip their breakfast or just grab something very quick to eat. It’s pretty much the same with exercise, few people these days have time to do some daily exercises into their life. As a result, keeping a healthy lifestyle is crucial in our daily life, however, we should also take some actions to make it come true and reach our ultimate aim to live longer in this vivid world.

【写作】TASK 1
题目:英国1957年和2007年的家庭支出比例
类型:柱图/动态图
考点/写作要点:
1. 注意题目的改写;
2. 时态可以选用过去时+过去完成时;
3. 建议同学不要按照年份进行逐一描述,会使得文章结构松散,趋势变化不明显,无法突出重点;
4. 在主体一段要描述明显的特征:housing,在两个时间点它的值都是高值;
5. 第二个特征是烟草tobacco的在两个时间段值相同;
6. 在食物上的支出没有太大变化,在饮料和衣服的支出的下降趋势相似;
7. 交通的支出下降,然而燃料的支出上升,可能代表油价在五十年的时间增长;
8. 注意使用与expenditure相关的词汇,如spending, consumption in xx.
范文:
The bar chart gives information about residential expenditures spent in eight different sections in England in the given two years 1957 and 2007.
It is clear that housing expenditure took up the highest percentage in both 1957 and 2007, which constituted 25% and 27% respectively. Meanwhile, people spent the least money on purchasing tobacco for the given two periods, the proportion stayed constant (6%). Also, consumers had spent similar money on food, the ratio only increased decreased by approximately 2%. However, the spending on other goods and services increased from 9% to 14%
As for expenditure on drinks and clothing, the percentages both showed a declining trend, moreover, these two figures had declined similarly by 5%. The proportion for transport dropped from 15% to 10%, while the number for fuel consumption rose from 7% to 14%. This might be explained by an increase in the price for fuel over the five decades, with people’s increasing demand for energy use.

范文:
The working population has always been fighting for better working entitlements including annual paid vacations, though the welfare policy varies in different countries.
It is obvious that the benefits of statutory vacations are not only restricted to employees but also to employers. First and foremost, holidays are essential for families to strengthen their bonds. Studies support that those who manage to achieve the balance between work and family would be more likely to focus on work than those who fail to do so. Moreover, physical health could be promoted through taking a vacation. Increasing evidence shows that overtime results in increasing absenteeism rate, sick leave and high turnover, which is anti-productive. The last but not least supporting factor for a paid leave is innovation and creativity which is believed to be seen in those refreshed from an extensive period of time off in many businesses, particularly in the fields of information technology and other “brain-intensive” domains.
However, it has to be admitted that vacation decreases working hours, hence reducing working outcome. Four week is nearly a twelfth of a year, which is not a short period of time and a month’s wage is not a small outlay for a business. For some companies, a consecutive 4-week leave is not practical. Besides the economic consideration, the connection between working efficiency and paid day off is under suspicion in some labor-intensive occupations. Would a post deliver worker performs faster after a one-month vacation?
From my own perspective, annual leave for a month is positive to work performance in most cases, especially in those positions where innovation is critical. But in some others, it can be negative and the loss of time cannot be compensated by higher work efficiency or effectiveness. Therefore, 4-week should not be the mandated minimum paid vacation.
