雅思大作文题目

间隔年的优劣势

Some students take one year off between finishing school and going to university in order to travel or to work. Do you think advantages outweigh disadvantages? 解析&审题

题材：教育

题型：讨论优劣类

关键词：students + one year off + travel or work

需要讨论的观点：上大学前先旅游或工作一年的优劣势

建议思路：双边讨论+自己的观点

复现情况：《剑桥雅思5》，test 2 ；2015年2月28日

《剑桥雅思系列》今年已经出到第15本了，但本次考题居然重复了《剑桥雅思5》上的一道题目，也是重复2015年2月28日雅思原题。这道题目太经典了，相信很多学生都曾经练习过，或者背诵过相关范文。因此，今天参加雅思考试的同学应该是感觉很幸运了。

我们知道，雅思作文题目中，要么是给出现象，要么是给出观点，然后让考生讨论“现象是好是坏”或者“是否同意这个观点”。无论是讨论“好坏”，或者讨论是否“同意观点”，其实都需要考生寻找论据来证明自己的看法。本作文提出的是一个现象，即一些国家鼓励高中毕业生先去工作一年或者旅游一年，再回来上大学，然后要求考生论证“这样做的好处和坏处”。

由于题目明确要求讨论“好处和坏处”，因此本题不宜采用“一边倒”结构方式，也就是不适合只论证好处，或者只论证坏处，而是要同时讨论好处和坏处，也就是“双边讨论”。稍微想一想，我们不难发现“工作一年或旅游一年”的好处：开拓视野，学习人际关系技巧（物质层面），更了解自我的需求（心理层面）。但也可能有坏处：工作或旅游一年后，可能不再想回到大学，从而失去接受大学教育的机会。这样讨论完毕之后，就来到“双边讨论”的一个最重要的环节，即提出自己的观点。唐老师已经在多个场合下反复强

调，“双边讨论”后一定要明确提出自己的观点，即到底是否支持“工作一年或旅游一年”，并给以简单的论证。这里，我觉得可以选择支持，因为开拓视野和了解自我实在在重要了，这会让之后的大学生活过得更充实，更有目的性，不至于浪费时光；同时，认为这一年会让一些学生不再上大学的可能性越来越小，因为大学学历在当今工作市场上已经成为一个必须条件。这样，在结论段，我们就从两个方面来论证自己的观点：一是正面论述自己的观点，二是反驳反方的观点。

以下范文来自《剑桥雅思5》给出的高分范文。唐老师拟对范文进行解读和分析。

高分范文

It is quite common these days for young people in many countries to have a break from studying after graduating from high school. The trend is not restricted to rich students who have the money to travel, but is also evident among poorer students who choose to work and become economically independent for a period of time.

The reasons for this trend may involve the recognition that a young adult who passes directly from school to university is rather restricted in terms of general knowledge and experience of the world. By contrast, those who have spent some time earning a living or travelling to other places, have a broader view of life and better personal resources to draw on. They tend to be more independent, which is a very important factor in academic study and research, as well as giving them an advantage in terms of coping with the challenges of student life.

However, there are certainly dangers in taking time off at that important age. Young adults may end up never returning to their studies or finding it difficult to readapt to an academic environment. They may think that it is better to continue in a particular job or to do something completely different from a university course. But overall I think this is less likely today, when academic qualifications are essential for getting a reasonable career.

My view is that young people should be encouraged to broaden their horizons. That is the best way for them to get a clear perspective of what they are hoping to do with their lives and why. Students with such a perspective are usually the most effective and motivated ones and taking a year off may be the best way to gain this.
