"Oh, it is nothing," said the dog. "Every night my master puts a collar around my neck and chains me up. You will soon get used to it."
"Is that the only reason?" said the wolf. "Then good-bye to you, my friend. I would rather be free."

雅思小作文是写作中的部分,对于烤鸭来说也有着举足轻重的作用,在考前,小编给大家深度解析在小作文的各类题目,以便大家对此更加了解。
在雅思写作考中,部分小作文,虽然小作文的分值不高,但是烤鸭也应该要先去尽量完全它,为帮大了解它,小编深度解析小作文中的各种题目。
图表类题目
想要解这种题我们要先来了解下西方人的思维模式:西方人做事情往往是跟我们东方人不样,西方人往往是讲究数字的,即他们都会使用种统计数据,资料来源,实验,以及还有报告来突出实事求是的学术精神;他们会用客观的数据事实来支持你的个人观点。
所以上海环球雅思培训老师认为如果你要到西方去留学,那么用数据描述统计图表的能力几乎都是每门课的教授所要求学生掌握的,同时也是学生写论文时常常要掌握的能力之。所以,图表类的小作文已经占据到了小作文出题次数80%以上的比例。
流程图和地图题题目
流程图的原理是:描述事物工作原理以及具体的流程。主要的目的是针对理工科学生在论文中需要描述机械原理,工艺流程。但是由于目前到海外去读工科的学生并不多,所以流程图出题的概率相对来说并不高,年大概也就3-5次左右。
地图题的原理是:需要去描述某个地区或者图纸布局的变化。主要的目的是让学生学会方位的表达,尤其是针对那些将来要到海外去学城市规划,地产开发,以及还有园林布局等专业的学生。但是因为这些学生的数量相对来说也不多,所以地图题年的出题概率可能也不高,年大概也就那么3-4次左右。
