剑桥雅思13小作文解析【一】
一、何为“折衷观点”和“折衷方案”。
很多雅思写作考题的提问方式都是“Do you agree or disagree？”或者“To what extent do you agree or disagree？”。很多刚刚接触雅思的学生甚至是老师认为对于这种提问方式无非就是yes或no两种答案，所以文章的观点也就只能是同意或者不同意了。其实，对于这类提问，也可以采用“折衷”的观点，即“partly agree，partly disagree”（部分同意，部分不同意）。但是前提是一定要在文章中从支持和反对的两方面都阐述一些理由，而且最好再提出一种“折衷”方案。例如，考题问“现在很多人用动物做试验，你同意吗？”，考生可以在文中分别讨论支持和反对动物试验的理由，最后提出动物试验既有好处也有坏处，这就是一种“折衷”观点。除此之外，作者还提出了是否能用动物来做试验主要是取决于试验是否能给人类生活带来显著的改善（比如帮助人类发明治疗Aids的药物），这就属于“折衷”方案。
二、“折衷观点”和“折衷方案”的几种形式。
那么如何提出“折衷观点”呢？“折衷方案”又有哪几种形式呢？下面笔者将对常见的几种安排折衷观点和折衷方案的\'形式，结合相应的考题进行总结。
（1） 兴利除弊
“兴利除弊”应该是一种比较简单的折衷方案，在优缺点类文章中特别常用。即在分析完考题所涉及事物的优缺点之后，在结尾段提出“优缺点都有，我们要兴利除弊”这样的折衷方案。例如以下考题：
The advantages brought by the spread of English as a “global language” will outweigh the disadvantages. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this view?
在讨论完英语作为全球性语言的利与弊之后，结尾段可以这样提出折衷观点：
To sum up, it is difficult to tell whether or not the advantages outweigh the disadvantages regarding the spread of English as a global language. What we may have to consider is how to accept this trend as positive while at the same time staying away from its drawbacks.
（2） 平衡发展
很多考题需要考生讨论两种观点，通常会有“discuss both views and give your own opinion”这样的提问要求。很多情况下，文中说到的两种观点表面上看来是完全相反，但其实并不矛盾，可以用“平衡发展”的思路来提出观点。例如考题：
Some people think that cultural traditions may be destroyed when they are used as money-making attractions aimed at tourists. Others believe it is the only way to save these traditions. Discuss on both sides and give your opinion.
在讨论完发展旅游的必要性和保护文化传统的重要性之后，结尾段可以这样提出折衷方案：
We should find the right balance between tourism development and cultural protection and I believe the government has a very important role to play here. In my own country, for example, many tourist cities have made effective development plans to successfully attract large numbers of visitors while still preserving their distinct cultural traditions.
（3） 取决于……
有时在讨论完A和B两种观点以后，可以提出类似于“同意A还是B要取决于……”这样的折衷观点，前文讲到的动物试验是否可以进行取决于试验的性质就是属于这样的方案。再比如下面这个例子：
Some people think that the animals should be treated as pets; others think that animals are sources of food and clothing. What is your opinion?
在讨论完动物当宠物养的理由和动物当食物吃的理由之后，结尾段可以这样提出观点：
From my point of view, there is no absolute answer as to whether animals should be treated like pets or as sources of food and clothes. It largely depends on what kinds of animals they are. But what remains undoubted is that we should treat animals with a humane attitude and bear in mind that they are important in preserving nature’s ecological equilibrium.
（4） 解决方法
很多双边讨论型文章中所讨论的两种观点其实是可以通过某种方案来“化解矛盾”的，例如这道考题：
In many countries, good schools and medical facilities are available only in cities. Some people think new teachers and doctors should wok in rural areas for a few years, but others think everyone should be free to choose where they work. Discuss and give your own opinion.
在讨论完“支边”的利（缩小城乡差距）与弊（年轻人丧失自由）之后，我们可以提出这样一种解决方案：
The best solution, therefore, is not to order, but to encourage. We should instill a sense of responsibility in young people and give more incentives to those who are willing to work in difficult areas, so that we can address the problem of urban-rural disparity while respecting whatever decisions new teachers or doctors have made.

此类例子往往缺乏客观性和说服力，由于第一人称的局限导致所叙述事件难免“鸡毛蒜皮”。要明白，个人不代表整体。
例：I keep my dog to avoid my loneliness and I find a lot of fun.
这样的例子让人犹如在看记叙文，和议论文很不搭调。

此类段落不论字数多少，都给人空虚的感觉。考生往往为了凑足篇幅而“不择手段”。表面看来扩展了许多，但仔细永远只有一个意思。不得不让考官觉得即单调又啰嗦。

雅思考试有条写作指令叫做：Include relevant examples from your own experience. 所以很多考生在考试时都喜欢使用举例法（exemplification。这一扩展方式本身无可厚非，然而在使用时几种例子是不适合的。
剑桥雅思13小作文解析【五】
虽然来源于身边社会，但不可让描述方式变的太鸡毛蒜皮，拿不上台面。其实这点非常容易办到，只需要把事件中某一个具体的你，我，他，变成是客观群体，比如说people across the globe, students, they之类的人称即可。
举例的常见表达方式：
for example,/for instance,（后加句子）
Such as/ like （后加词组）
Take... as an example,
A case in point is that......
其次，在举例时还应注意尺度。
1. 应避免使用第一人称和第二人称，为了加强客观性，应将人称写成第三人称。
改正：Those people who raise pets, such as dogs and cats, are more likely to gain happiness and relieve their loneliness.（那些养宠物，例如养猫和养狗的人往往更容易获得快乐并且缓解孤独感）
2. 应避免引用一项调查研究，并同时伴有过多数据。应将数据去掉，用含糊的方法表示。
改正：There is much evidence to show that the number of people smoking has increased at an alarming rate in China. （大量证据表明。。。）
3. 应避免将例子局限在一个国家，尤其是中国。应将范围放至全世界。
改正：Many children around the world like to sit in front of the screen for a long time, leading to their poor eyesight.（在全世界，许多孩子在屏幕前待太久，导致了他们的视力减弱。
“全世界”的表达方式：around the world, all over the world, across the globe
【写作真题】The advocates of international aid believe that countries have a moral obligation to help each other, while the opponents consider it necessary, because money is misspent by the governments that receive it. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
【名师献计】This aid is essential to the homeless and useful in helping recipient countries return to their normal state after major disturbances.

一只老猫叼起念佛珠来玩弄着，这给墙角里的两只老鼠看见了，他们的脑袋里不禁冒出了一个大大的问号，这是怎么回事呢?
老大说：“我们还是警惕一点好，不知道他这葫芦里卖得什么药，说不定是故意引我们上钩呢!”
老二说：“这怎么可能?听人类说，只要念佛就要心存善意，改吃素食。”
“那可说不定呢!”老大还不服气。
“那我们出去看看吧!”老二想了一个一举两得的办法，他得意洋洋的说。
说着他们走出了洞，离猫有一段距离。只听猫嘴里不停地念叨着：“善哉善哉。”说着睁开眼睛扫了一眼老鼠兄弟，又合上眼睛说：“出家人不吃荤，只吃素食。”
老大听了，放松了警惕，说：“我相信：佛是绝对不会骗我们的，因为妄语(乱说不实在的话骗人是佛门大戒，佛也是因为不妄语，才可以修成佛的。所以古人说：‘佛言不信，何言可信?’我们走过去和猫交个朋友吧!说不定以后偷东西，可以帮我们开门，拿东西呢!”
老二赞同了老大的说法，大步流星的走到猫身边说：“猫大哥，咱们交个朋友吧!”
猫说：“好啊!”他停了停，问：“朋友有难应当互相帮助，对吗?”
“是呀!”
“我现在需要你帮助，我的肚子饿了!”
话说着，就把老鼠按住了，老鼠兄弟悲伤地说：“江山易改，本性难移，我们要时刻提高警惕性，不要被表面现象所迷惑，要认清本质!”
猫奸笑着说：你们天天呆在洞里，今天总算把你们引出来了。
猫津津有味地吃掉了老鼠。

时间状语和地点状语，都是你的扩句好朋友，不信我们来看：
Most female consumers and their girlfriends shop unwisely and spend too much money in their early ages.(时间状语
Most female consumers and their girlfriends shop unwisely and spend too much money on luxurious purchases.(名词状语
Most female consumers and their girlfriends shop unwisely and spend too much money on souvenirs.(名词状语
即使是状语，也可以通过叠加将句子变得更加丰满。有能力的烤鸭当然可以通过状语从句定语从句等等来让句子更不一样。

一个国家同样难代表世界。雅思是international的考试，不应将范围框的太局限。此外考官来自各个国家，过分使用一个国家的例子会引起他们的反感。
例：Many children in China like to play computer games for a long time, leading to their poor eyesight.
只需小小改动便可成为成功范例。
因此，首先考生应了解，举例是一种常见的论述方式，特别在论述某一些比较抽象的话题的\'时候（比如文化类或跟艺术相关的话题）。但是，并不是每个段落都需要例证法，举例过多或过分牵强会影响文章的正式感，甚至给考官喋喋不休的感觉。
举例是为了更加形象地叙述事情。朗阁海外考试研究中心提醒考生们要注意以下原则：
