雅思作文往往和比較重要的社會現象或者熱點聯繫。考生在備考雅思寫作的時候，在這方面要下意識去關注以及進行一些預測練習。接下來，小編就爲大家送上一篇2017雅思作文政府類預測範文，供大家參考。
Write about the following topic:
Governments should make more effort to promote alternative sources of energy.
To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?
Model Answer:
It has been known for some time now that a move towards sources of energy which are not carbon-based is urgently required to stop the effects of global warming. In my view, there are too few governments who seem to be promoting the use of other types of energy such as wind, wave, solar and nuclear sources of energy.
Governments at present are too reliant on coil, oil and gas. Although some governments are doing research into the use of alternative energy sources, many are not. Energy from the wind, the sea and the sun does not pollute the environment and is an everlasting source of power. Nuclear power is clean, and although it is not totally unproblematic, it would provide a large amount of energy and dramatically improve the environment. Countries such as France have made good use of nuclear power.
My feeling is that more use could be made of wind power. In some countries, there has been a reluctance to use wind turbines, even in areas which are not densely populated, as some people believe they are eyesores. Personally, I believe they are not only useful, but beautiful as well. Governments should spend more time and effort promoting the benefits of this source of energy and trying to make the public understand the reason for change.
In conclusion, I believe that, if governments forced everyone to have a wind turbine and solar panels on the building they live in, made more use of wave power and built more nuclear power stations, then they would manage to avert the dangers that are seriously threatening the Earth.
附：雅思高分作文寫作技巧
避免重複
1. 儘量避免重複使用同樣的詞彙。或者有的時候雖然詞彙沒有重複，但意思卻有重複。這時候可以做一些簡化的工作。例如下面這個例子：
The farm my grandfather grew up on was large in size.
large 對一個farm來說就是size方面的large，所以in size可以去掉，改爲：
The farm my grandfather grew up on was large.
更簡潔的表達方式爲：
My grandfather grew up on a large farm.
2. 有時一個詞組可以用一個更簡單的單詞來替換，例如：
My grandfather has said over and over again that he had to work on his parents' farm。
這裏的over and over again就可以改爲repeatedly，顯得更爲簡潔：
My grandfather has said repeatedly that he had to work on his parents' farm.
