從全年看 ,2008 年大作文主要考題仍然以教育為主話題 , 雖然其它話題如居住環(huán)境、旅游、高科技、代溝、傳媒影響等沒有什么大的變化 , 但具體的題型和出題的側(cè)重點更加變化多端，有些考題，如果要在考場上短時間內(nèi)要聯(lián)系到以前準備的話題，的確不是易事。
一，提問方式穩(wěn)重有變
首先從提問方式上看，今年的變化不大，以復雜雙邊討論為主。單邊議論也有，但不是很多。值得注意的是，今年 3 月 1 日的考題中出現(xiàn)了一道考生不是非常熟悉的提問形式，給定幾門功課，讓考生從中選取課改后值得保留的科目。這種多選題形式的考題形式出現(xiàn)的不多，所以可能會給考生造成一定的壓力。
08.03.01
Most countries spend much money on education, as they start to realize the importance of education. In your opinion which two subjects are the most important for young people and which one is the least important?
subjects: Literature Sports
Mathematics Economics
Physics History
Music Geography
Philosophy Foreign languages
此外， 08 年 2 月 16 日也出現(xiàn)了一道比較新穎的題目，該題的背景介紹為一句名人名言，也是不多見的形式。不過該題并沒有給考生的審題帶來太大的障礙，因為后面的提問句的表述還是非常簡潔清晰的。
08.02.16
“Tomorrow is the most important thing in life.”
- US movie actor & director John Wayne
Why is it important for individuals and countries to think about the future rather than focusing on the present?
二，教育類話題仍為核心考點
從話題方面看，以往的高頻話題依然是今年的主打，如教育與就業(yè)、高科技與發(fā)展、環(huán)境與污染、犯罪問題等。其中教育類話題就占到了全年所有話題的三分之一。教育類話題一直是雅思學術(shù)類（ A 類）議論文的考場重點，但 08 年所考察的教育類話題與 07 年的教育類話題相比稍有不同： 07 上半年反復考到教育與高科技的結(jié)合，下半年考的多是政策等與教育的關(guān)系，而 08 年更側(cè)重于具體的教學方法和青少年的教育問題。前者如 group study 和 study alone 的選擇 (08 年 3 月 30 日 ) 、 rote learning 的利弊（ 08 年 12 月 6 日）、 secondary education （ 08 年 1 月 26 日）或者理論與實踐課的取舍和就業(yè)的關(guān)系（ 08 年 7 月 5 日）等；后者主要有小孩利用電視或 PC 學習的利弊 (08 年 5 月 10 日 ) 、是否要完全服從大人或者老師（ 08 年 6 月 21 日）等。

08.01.26
In countries where there is a high rate of unemployment, most pupils should be offered only primary education. There is no point in offering secondary education to those who have no hope of finding a job. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?
08.05.10
Children can learn efficiently by watching television. Some people think that children should be encouraged to watch TV regularly both at school and at home. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
08.06.21
Some people say that children should obey the rules set by their parents and teachers, while other people think children will not be well-prepared for their adult life if they are given too much control. Discuss in both sides and give your opinion.
08.07.05
Some people believe that theoretical subjects (e.g. Maths, Philosophy and Economics) should not be taught in universities because they should focus on practical subjects (e.g. Computer Technology, Accounting....) To what extent do you agree or disagree?
08.08.30
Some teachers think it is effective for students to study in a group while others think it is better to study alone. What are the benefits of each way and which one do you think is more effective?
08.12.06
Memorization of information by frequent repetition (rote learning) plays a role in many education systems. Does the usefulness of this method outweigh the limitations?
三，新話題仍占有一定比例
但今年應該是全新題目比較多的一年。如 2 、 3 月份的考題中有評價“ tomorrow is more important and precious ”，也有問“健康對個人還是對社會有利”，以及“保證健康的生活方式是個人還是政府的責任”等感覺非常陌生的考題；下半年的“社會運作是基于 rules and laws ”， 08 年最后一次考試的“社會公益節(jié)日的意義”等都是以前沒有出現(xiàn)過的新題，而且比較抽象，觀點不好表達，詞匯也不是很熟悉。此外，以前的舊話題的某個側(cè)面放大化重考也不乏此例。如 3 月 8 日的考題“修路由誰出資”就是以往多次考到的汽車數(shù)量增多造成污染加重的高頻話題的一個解決方法； 8 月初的“是否要將大企業(yè)搬到鄉(xiāng)下去”就是解決污染、就業(yè)、住房緊張等話題的政府采取的可行性措施之一；此外暑期考的旅游更易使人產(chǎn)生偏見還是心胸開闊，也是旅游這個多次考到的話題的一個側(cè)面。

08.03.29
Some people think that it is the responsibility of the government of a country to ensure that its people have a healthy lifestyle. However, others think that individuals should be free to make their own decisions on living. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
08.10.11
Society is based on rules and laws. It could not function if individuals were free to do whatever they want. To what extent do you agree or disagree ？
08.12.20
Nowadays, many charities and organisations publicize their activities by giving names to a particular day, such as National Children's Day and National Non-smoking Day. Why do they do so? What effects will these special days have ？
雖然紛繁復雜，但事實上雅思的考題并沒有所謂的新題 , 有的只是各個高頻話題的排列組合。 只要平時把基礎(chǔ)打好 , 多關(guān)注一些近期傳媒的焦點 , 就不難找到每個貌似全新的考題的廬山真面目。如上段中的明天是否重要問題，可以聯(lián)想到當前發(fā)展對環(huán)境的破壞與可持續(xù)發(fā)展的關(guān)系問題；健康對社會的作用除了生理健康更好的服務社會以外，還可以聯(lián)想到心理的健康能夠減少暴力案件的發(fā)生促進社會的和諧等。這樣和以前準備的高頻話題聯(lián)系起來，考場上才能信心十足。
此外一般情況下 , 閱卷人并不是很關(guān)注從哪個方面論證 , 相比較而言更側(cè)重的是是否條理清楚并言之有理 , 真正決定考分的永遠都是句法和詞匯表達。 所以對于寫作的平均分低至接近 5 分的廣大中國考生而言，更重要的問題是詞匯的恰當和句法的準確以及句式的多樣性和客觀性。對于即將赴考的考生，建議大家多看看 VOA 、 BBC 或者其他英文媒體的報道，積累近期的關(guān)注焦點的英文對照。面對新題，有一點很重要 ---- 將其具體化到能夠聯(lián)系上近期發(fā)生的事件，空空論述詞匯比較難把握。如今年考的政府職能、依法治國等題目，可能要提到各國政府救市 bailout 、三聚氰胺 melamine 等內(nèi)容，可操作性更高些。
