科技類寫作話題在全年48次雅思考試中出現頻率實際並不算高，可一旦出現，很多同學往往大腦一片空白，不知從何入手進行構思。考試的成功與備考過程中妥善的準備密不可分。
以下是從雅思教研中心發佈的歷年寫作機經中，總結出科技類大作文其實只有三種常見的出題套路：
套路一
分析宏觀角度的科技發展對個人、環境、全球的影響。
例如：
(12-2-18) Some people think that the development of technology has made our life more complex, and the solution is to live a simpler life without that technology.
To what extent do you agree or disagree?
(09-1-10) Some people think that the range of technology available to individuals makes the increasing gaps between rich and poor people, but other people believe it has opposite effects.
Discuss both sides and give your opinion.
套路二
從微觀角度分析某種具體的'高科技產品的利弊
例如：
(13-2-2) Some people think watching television is bad for children in all ways. Others say it is good for children to gain knowledge.
Discuss both views and give your opinion.
(11-1-8) Some people think that robots are very important for humans' future development. Others, think that robots are a dangerous invention that could have negative effects on society.
Discuss both views and give your opinion.
(06-1-14) There are social, medical, and technical problems associated with the use of mobile phones.
Do you agree that the problems outweigh the benefits of mobile phone?
套路三
高科技產品與傳統事物之間的“碰撞”
比如：
(14-11-22) Online shopping is now replacing shopping in store.
Do you think it is positive or negative development?
(13-3-2) Schooling is no longer necessary, since more and more information can be found on the Internet, so students can study as well at home.
To what extent do you agree or disagree?
以上兩道題目，一道題是關於在線購物是否會取代傳統實體店。另一道題目是關於網絡教學是否會取代學校和老師。類似的題目還有：文字如今可以被電子儲存，紙質書是否有必要繼續存在;電腦和手機的使用是否會取代寫信;人們能夠在網上瀏覽歷史文物，博物館無需繼續存在，同意否。
縱觀這三種出題套路，套路一難度最大，因爲很多同學平時並不會主動關注“高科技是否擴大了貧富差距”這樣的“變態”問題，因此該類題目的難度係數足以秒殺衆多考生，筆者建議在備考期間，這類套路的考題務必提前閱讀高分範文，儲備寫作思路。套路二，從圍觀角度分析某個高科技產品的利弊，這類話題難度係數低，但容易失分，究其原因，在於很多同學沒有能夠抓住解題核心點，請各位務必牢記：高科技的弊端是解題的核心!因爲高科技的好處，幾乎人人會說，而它的弊端，恐怕很多同學難以想到。
