引導語：爲了幫助大家更好地準備雅思考試，以下是本站小編爲大家整理的雅思英語寫作素材，歡迎閱讀!
一、紙質書與電子書
Some people think that printed books are no longer necessary in this digital era as all writings can be stored electronically. Others think that printed books still play important roles. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion. 有人認爲紙媒書籍不再重要，因爲在數碼時代所有文章可以電子儲備，有人認爲紙媒書籍依然可以發揮重要作用，討論兩種觀點?
【相關題目】
Maintaining public libraries is a waste of money since computer technology can replace libraries’ function. To which extent do you agree or disagree? 有人認爲，圖書館是資源浪費，因爲計算機可以取得其作用，是否認同?
【立場】 傳統的紙媒閱讀不會因爲電子閱讀的流行而退出歷史舞臺。
【頭腦風暴】我們已經從互聯網時代進入到無線互聯網時代，微信、微博、電子書的流行極大地改變了人們的閱讀方式。一種新事物的流行必然因爲其優勢，有其不等不流行的理由。但是，傳統的紙媒閱讀沒有，也不會因爲電子書的流行而退出歷史舞臺。
【思路拓展】
① 紙媒書籍永遠是有市場的，因爲人們改變不了千百年來形成的根深蒂固的閱讀紙媒的習慣。
② 電子閱讀是快餐式的閱讀，紙媒書籍更有收藏價值。紙媒書籍便於學習，例如考試用書，可以標註。
③ 電子閱讀因爲其環保、低價、存儲量大、便於攜帶、製作精美成爲傳統書籍有益的補充。
【範文賞析】
【首段】背景介紹 + 爭議焦點 + 作家立場
Reading has a key role to play in people’s relaxation. Sure enough，it is not rare to see that the enormous popularity of electric equipments, such as iphone and ipad, keeps on soaring. Many people prefer to read e-books rather than the traditional paper books. Hence, people differ greatly in their views as to whether or not the printed books will be still of great necessity. As I see it, paper books could never be substituted because of their unique merits.
【二段】第一次支持作家立場
Primarily，although it is easy to acquire and utilize e-books, it is far from easy, for millions of people, to change their deeply-rooted habits of reading paper books. More precisely, numerous people insist on browsing paper books in traditional way because they can take notes in the blank of a page. A hard truth can justify my stand. Traditional books were often predicted to be replaced by new technology such as the Internet or smart phones in the past several decades, however, this prediction has never been realized until now. Similarly, traditional books will not withdraw from the stage of history due to e-reading.
【三段】第二次支持作家立場
What I would like to add is that a newly published book or magazine could best stimulate one’s reading impulse for the simple reason that a great many readers enjoy the fragrance of paper book and can feel the sense of ownership when holding a book. Unlike using e-books, which is just a sort of fast-food reading, traditional reading enables people to have an in-depth thinking and thus enhance their literacy.
【四段】談及對立觀點的合理性
Indeed, there must be some reasons to account for the popularization of e-reading. Seen from the positive aspects, e-books not only provide words, illustrations and pictures that traditional books have,but also add sounds, moving images and cartoons that printed books cannot offer. Another merit of e-books is that they can be eco-friendly because less paper will be needed. Last, electronic libraries cannot only save more space but also store more information.
【尾段】再次亮明觀點 + 總結理由
To sum up, it is my view that under no circumstances can we ignore the immense value of print books and magazines. Printed books and e-reading are not mutually exclusive, for they enjoy respective merits. Therefore, both of them will co-exist, e-books can be a beneficial alternative to traditional books.
【經典語料】
1. People differ greatly in their views as to whether or not …… 關於是否……，人的觀點差異
2. under no circumstances can we ignore the immense value of …… 任何情況下我們都不能忽視……的巨大價值
3. It is far from easy, for millions of people, to change their deeply-rooted habits of reading paper books. 對於很多人而言，他們改變不了多年來形成的閱讀紙媒的根深蒂固的習慣。
4. Traditional books will not withdraw from the stage of history due to e-reading. 傳統書籍不會因爲電子書而退出歷史舞臺。
5. Printed books and e-readings are not mutually exclusive, for they enjoy respective merits. 紙媒閱讀和電子閱讀不是互相排斥的，因爲他們有各自的優點。
二、國外遊帶來偏見
International travel often lead people have some prejudices rather than broad minds. What are the main reasons of this phenomenon? What do you think people can get better understanding of the countries they visit? 國際遊經常使人們產生文化偏見，而非幫助他們開拓視野，原因何在?如何幫助人們更好地理解旅遊目的地。
【點評】：
雅思舊題，原題重現，角度較冷，寫作較難。尤其考察的頭腦風暴，人生閱歷，以及相關的語料庫的積累和運用。
本題屬於分析問題解決問題的提問角度，符合雅思寫作輪轉提問的規律，但是，其角度比較簡單。其考察內容，對於一般考生，想在現場完成高分作文，阻力較大。
分析問題和解決問題佈局圖：
首段：背景介紹 +(問題影響)+ 寫作目的
二段：分析問題產生的根源：(客觀上 + 主觀上)(社會原因+ 家庭原因 +個人原因)
三段：問題的解決策略展開：(針對原因：政府如何做;企業如何做;媒體如何做;教育者如何做;家庭如何做;個人如何做)
尾段：再次亮明觀點(強調問題的解決應該是各方的協同努力)
【頭腦風暴】：
人人渴望旅行，以拓寬視野和豐富閱歷，但是，有時候，旅行的過程使遊客們產生的卻是文化偏見，而非精神的愉悅和視野的開拓。
例證拓展：在韓國， 撫摸人的頭是文化禁忌之一;是一種不尊重人的表現。
例證拓展：在泰國，女性在參觀寺廟的時候，如果衣服露出膝蓋和肩膀會被認爲是一種不尊敬宗教信仰的體現。
例證拓展：在西方國家給服務者小費是一種習慣和風俗，尤其是在熱門的旅遊目的地。例如，在馬爾代夫，很多歐美人習慣性地服務生小費，但是，有些中國人就喜歡給小費(因爲中國沒有這個傳統)，這時候，如果有服務生索取小費，遊客不給，矛盾衝突，在所難免。(比較有意思的`是：如果遊客說沒有小費可給，服務生會說：留下手錶、項鍊、相機作爲禮物也是可以)
例證拓展：臺灣人是不食狗肉，在中國大陸，很多地方，例如延邊，人們以狗肉爲美食(延邊人有句話：鮮族人過年，要了狗命了)。可以想象：如果臺灣人到延邊去旅行，被邀請吃狗肉，他們不會認爲這是一種盛情款待，反而，會感到不解甚至憤怒。
【範文賞析】：
首段：背景介紹 + 寫作目的
Such is human nature to explore those exotic countries and feel the sense of refreshment. Many people desire to expand their minds and enrich their experience of the world during the process of visiting their dream tourism destination. However, some problems inevitably ensue. Instead of feeling the pleasure of travel， what some sightseers feel are only culture prejudice, conflicts and misunderstandings.
【點評】：原則上講，首段理應亮明寫作目的，但是，文無定法。本篇小鵬哥省略主題觀點，留下想象空間，自然引出原因以及解決策略。其實，在英語論文寫作中，這是方法之一，稱爲: deduction writing.
解析：Such is human nature to …… 做……是人之本性
拓展：To see the outside world is what every individual aspires after. 見識外面的世界是人人心中的渴望。
解析：However, some problems inevitably ensue. 然而，一些問題，不可避免地隨之發生。
二段：問題的原因一的展開：
First, historical differences and diverse customs, to some extent, contribute to the bias, misunderstandings and even hostility. A case in point is that eating dog meat is permissible and understandable in some minority areas in China. More precisely, Taiwan people might be quite amazed when hearing or seeing dog meat is edible, for it is illicit and forbidden to persecute dogs in Taiwan. It is conceivable that Taiwan tourists might be quite shocked and disappointed when visiting some Korean minority areas in Mainland China. People there always take dog meat as delicious foods.
【點評】：旅行中的偏見可能是來自歷史和風俗的差異。
解析：contribute to the bias, misunderstandings and even hostility 導致了偏見，誤解和敵意。
解析：it is illicit and forbidden to persecute dogs in Taiwan. 在臺灣，迫害小狗是非法的，被禁止的。
解析：visiting some Korean minority areas in Mainland China 參觀中國大陸的一些朝鮮族地區
三段：問題的原因二的展開：
Further，some sightseers’ deeply rooted concept, and diverse life experience account for the appearance of culture prejudice. To illustrate , a kind of benediction like may you child become a dragon might be acceptable in Chinese culture. However, westerners might consider this kind of malediction as a curse for their children, for dragon equals to monster in western culture.
【點評】：旅行中的偏見可能是來自文化和傳統的差異。
解析：…… account for the appearance of culture prejudice. …… 解釋了文化偏見的出現
解析：Westerners might consider this kind of malediction as a curse for their children 西方人認爲望子成龍的祝福，其實是一種詛咒(因爲在西方的文化裏，龍是怪物，而非圖騰)
四段：解決策略的展開：針對原因
Several methods should be adopted to help tourists minimize the potential culture bias or emotional misunderstanding. Primarily, before paying a visit to one tourism destination, it is feasible to specialize in the customs, histories and local people’s lifestyle. For example, if a western visitor aims to do some sightseeing in the Chinese minority areas like Tibet, it is wise to get to know some taboo, learn some simple minority language and the minority tradition. Also, efforts should be made by those tourist guides or local mass media to disseminate local cultures and popularize some relevant travel taboo. In this sense, people will acquire the first-hand knowledge and thus have a deeper insight into a new country.
【點評】：爲了減少旅行中的偏見，旅行者，導遊，當地媒體應該共同努力。
解析：Several methods should be adopted to help sb to do sth 我們應該採取措施，幫助某人去做……
解析：pay a visit to sp = visit sp = explore sb = do some sightseeing in sp v參觀某地
拓展：it is feasible to do sth = it is viable to do sth 做……是可行的
解析：also, efforts should be made by …… 第二，……應該做出努力去……
解析：disseminate local cultures and popularize some relevant travel taboo 傳播當地文化，普及相關的旅行禁忌
尾段：再次亮明觀點：
Overall，it is no easy task to iron out possible bias and conflicts before visiting some hot scenic spots. However, memorable travel experience favors the prepared minds.
【點評】： 自然結尾，餘音繞樑。
解析：It is no east task to iron out the possible bias and conflicts. 消除潛在的偏見和衝突, 絕非易事。
解析：iron out v 消除……
解析：visit some hot scenic spots v參觀一些人們的旅遊景區
解析：Memorable travel experience favors the prepared minds. 美好的旅行回憶留給了做好準備的人。
Tips：
1. culture shock n文化休克
解析：主要是來自於兩個不同文化差異而引起。可以發生在任何時候，任何新環境。當你到達一個地方覺得很陌生、很困惑，不知道自己的角色是什麼、應定位在哪裏?應怎麼表現才恰當等等，覺得很不舒服。
2. cultural taboo n文化禁忌
解析：文化禁忌是指在某個民族或宗教傳統文化裏禁忌的一些事物，行動或言語。
