Task 2

In some countries in the world, people can choose to live and work anywhere as they want because of the improvement of the communication technology and transport. To what extent do you think its advantages outweigh its disadvantages? Unlike those who live in one specific place for generations, more people in modern world can live and work wherever they want due to the development of communication technology and transport. Although this phenomenon brings a few negtive effects, I strongly believe that this is a good trend because its advantages outweigh its disadvantages.

Firtly, this phenomenon provides people with more options of places that they would like to live or work in, so that they can better enjoy their lives. Not everyone likes the place where he or she was born or has been living for a long time. People would be much happier if they live in a land where they have better lives. For example, a land with better welfare guarantees people living there better living standard.

Secondly, if people can live or work anywhere they want in some countries, they can make full use of what is available for them. A country can be divided into several parts that focus on different areas. For example, international commerse can be easily carried out in coastal cities. People can take advantage of different functional areas of a country to obtain what are provided.

Of course, this may also cause some unnecessary problems. No matter how advanced it is, communiation technology can never be better than face to face contact. It may not deliver messages as well as face to face contact does. Likewise, the probability of having a traffic accident is higher as more transportation is conducted.

To sum up, this phenomenon has more advantages than disadvantages. It guarantees a better life and makes our society be efficiently exploited.

Many people believe that countries should produce food for all population and imported food as little as possible. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Food concerns each individual as it is the foundation of people’s lives. Therefore, governments attach great importance to the supply of food. However, in my opinion, a government does not need to provide food for all its population.

Firstly, other fields of a country can be better developed if it only provides food for part of its population.

a country which produces food for all population will find its efforts in other fields are affected. However, with a certain proportion of food being imported, more attention of the country can be paid to improving, for example, industry or education. Because what a country can do is limited and other fields are more concerned with people’s living standard.

Secondly, some countries have an advantage over others to produce certain kinds of food. Not every country can provide its people with all knids of food. For example, seafood can only be provided by coastal countries. Therefore, only when a country introduces food from others can its people have access to diverse kinds of food, which is also why importing food means to better serve its all population.

Admittedly, some food from other countries may not suit the appetite of a specific nation, but it is not necessary for government to import food as little as possible. Imported food can be specially made to comply with the kind a nation is used to, which makes it possible that people can easily adapt to and enjoy food with different zest.

Generally, there is no need for governments to try to provide food for all of its population. They should import food according to the need of people.

第二篇：12月6日雅思写作真题范文及解析

12月6日雅思写作真题范文及解析：frequency repetition

今天看了下12月6日的雅思作文考题，BBS里面好像开了锅一样，“变态”二字充斥着整个论坛，本人仿佛看见了许多考生的怨恨，无辜，愤怒和无奈。其实我觉得无辜的应该是出这个题的人，先别着急拍砖，听我给你讲讲再拍也不迟。

还有，对于那些怀疑今天写偏题的同学，我提供一篇范文给你看看，这篇范文是随便在网上找的，顶多6.5分，你看看你的作文和它的近似程度吧。

分析如下：

题目其实就是有关“死记硬背”学习形式的讨论，只是许多同学被“by frequency repetition”给忽悠了，但如果你稍微注意一下紧跟其后括号里的解释（rote learning),这个rote就是我们常说的“死记硬背”啊，在口语考试中，考官常说的：Don't rote everything, otherwise your score will be penalized（不要去死记硬背你的口语答案，否则你的分数会被处罚的）。很多同学翻译成“重复记忆”可以理解，但问题是此题配有解释啊！不认识rote这个单词是根源，证明你的词汇量太低，而且对教育类的单词不熟悉。如craming ：填鸭式教学。 写作思路：客观评价这种典型的学习方式，有用，但太机械化。还是应该积极性思考和学习，及我们常说的think creatively and critically. 这句话是不是很眼熟啊。

安慰的话：说实话，大家不用太绝望，重复记忆不就是死记硬背吗，重复＝死记，因为没有主动性的思考，所以这篇文章这样写的话，你不会偏的far away。再说，考官一看中国学生对rote的理解就都是这样的话，法不责众嘛。放心，不会有问题的！我自己想了下，如果按repetition这样写出来的话，跟rote差不多。主要看你的第二个观点，及how to learn effectively and efficiently.

Memorization of information by frequency repetition(rote learning) plays a role in education system to what extend do you agree or disagree.

范文：

Learning is a complex process that involves different strategies and stages. As a key approach of learning, memorization of information by repetition contributesto the overall effectiveness of an education system. But we should also admit that rote learning has a number of limitations.

Learning by repetition is an effective strategy in learning. For example, Chinese people believe that one will get the gist of a book after reading it for a hundred times. Researchers have found that rote learning is particularlyuseful for young learners. When teaching children how to use a computer, instructors show them over and over again until they can perform tasks correctly. Moreover, for certain kinds of learning at early stage, the understanding involved is often minimal. Naturally rote learning assumes an important role.

However, we need to bear in mind that meaningful learning is more essential for our education system. When students grow older and enter higher grades, the scope and depth of their learning grow. Surely rote learning can help students learn knowledge by heart but it could do little to improve their analyzingability and creativity. There has been strong criticism that some schools overemphasize the importance of memorization of knowledge and produce students with great weaknesses in applying knowledge in practice. Solution for such problem could be that schools and students put in more effort into meaningful learning.

To conclude, learning is a complex progress and students employ different strategiesat various stages. Rote learning is important in education system, but meaningful learning is more critical for students in obtaining advanced ability and skills.
