6、cal Range & Accuracy,Content,Structure,Words,Sentences,Task 2议论文评分标准: Arguments, Ideas and Evidence(论证,论点和论据);Communicative Quality(交流质量);Vocabulary and Sentence Structure(词汇与句子结构)。,1)Arguments, Ideas and evidence:内容切题,论据合理,论证充分。不要出现跑题。有的考生由于词汇量有限,导致题目中的单词不认识,从而写作的时候写离题了。,例:,Nowadays, international
7、tourism is the biggest industry in the world. Unfortunately, international tourism creates tension rather than understanding between people from different cultures. Do you agree or disagree? 如果考生不懂international tourism是什么意思的话,这道题是没法写的。,但是,雅思写作涉及的词汇量并不是大得令人生畏,大概有六七千左右。考生万一碰到个把单词不理解的话,完全可以通过上下文加以推测。对策
8、:对于单词,考生应该平时注意积累,应试时根据上下文推断。,Evidence(论据):关键要合理,并且能够证明论点。例1:Wild animals have no place in the 21st century and trying to protect these animals is a waste of resources.
