还记得去年夏天,大家在喝着啤酒吃着花生看着世界杯的喜悦中,宣告了上半年的雅思考试结束。今年,雅思官方为了满足各位同学日益增长的考试需求,特地在中国大陆加开了在暑假的8月31号(和临近圣诞的12月21号)的考试。官方的好意不可辜负,赶紧回顾下2019年上半年考情,冲刺下半年的考试吧!
01
题型分析
Figure 1: 2019年上半年大作文题型分布
“Agree or disagree”题型历来都是,占据了半壁江山,一半的的题目都是这种题型。考察力度之大简直令人发指,所以这类题型一定是各位同学备考的重中之重。回溯2018年考题,全年“agree or disagree”全年考察了24次。估计今年大概率延续这个趋势,所以下半年估计还有接近一半的题目是此类题型。
“Discuss both views” 题型在季度只出现了一次,然而在第二季度有一个小爆发,出现了4次。对比2018年和2017年的情况,2018年此题型考察了5次,在2017年此题型考察了10次。那么在2019年对该类题型的考频应该可以参考前两年的考情。因为往年该类题型考频一般不超过10次,所以今年大概率也不会超过10次。笔者预计,下半年改题型可能会出现3-5次吧。
“利弊题”/ “positive or negative”、在上年只出现了2次,考频有点低。参考前两年的数据,该类题型的考频都稳定在10次左右。然而官方都每类题型的考频每年都比较稳定,所以今年该类题型在下半年应该要出现5-8次,算是第二高频。
“报告类及混合类”在上半年出现了5次,根据往年考察的规律,这种题型出现的频次维持在每年8-10,那么下半年预计会出现3-5次,所以对于此类题型同学们不可掉以轻心。

话题分析
Figure 2: 2019年上半年大作文话题分布
从以上图和表可以看出,社会类题型是每年考察的重中之重,今年上半年社会类考察了12次之多。估计下半年也是一个考察重点。去年考察了19次之多,今年的考频可能会接近此字数。
教育类历来是一个重点的题型,在上半年考察了4次。对比2018年和2017年的数据(Table 3),笔者预计下半年教育类题型应该会5-8次,几乎每个月都要出现一次。
下一个重点应该是科技类和政府类。科技类在上半年只考察了2次,而政府类竟然没有出现过,估计下半年这两种题型,要各出现4-5次。
环境类在上半年出现了3次,下半年估计出现的概率不高。文化类和犯罪类可能在下半年分别出现1-2次。
03
备考建议
首先要打好基础,熟悉各种题型的基本思路和模板,千万混淆不能“agree or disagree”与“discuss both views”题型的模板。
其次考试一定要注意审题!审题!审题!
再次,多读多背范文,学习考官范文里的地道的词句和搭配。
04
小作文分析
上半年考了6次动态图,3次静态图,一次“混合图”。根据往年规律(Table 5),动态图与静态图整体考察比例大致为2:1。季度的考题整体维持了这个比例。在第二季度也延续这个比例。从整个上半年来看,动态图考察了14次,静态图考察了6次。笔者预计,下半年依旧会延续此比例,即动态图下半年会考到10-12次,静态图考6次左右。
地图流程图只在个季度出现,第二个季度并没有出现。然而根据往年规律,地图每年大约考7次,流程图考3次左右。所以第三个季度地图题出现的概率比较高,千万不可以掉以轻心。
