參加過(guò)雅思考試的同學(xué)們都知道，雅思考試是從聽(tīng)、說(shuō)、讀、寫4個(gè)方面來(lái)考查考生們的語(yǔ)言使用水平，題型也主要針對(duì)聽(tīng)、說(shuō)、讀、寫4個(gè)部分。據(jù)了解，大部分考生都認(rèn)為這4個(gè)部分是獨(dú)立的，然而實(shí)際上并非如此。具體來(lái)說(shuō)，雅思閱讀和雅思寫作的關(guān)系最為密切，據(jù)此也就有了“閱寫不分家”的說(shuō)法。南京朗閣雅思培訓(xùn)的老師如是說(shuō)，考生們?nèi)绻谘潘伎荚噺?fù)習(xí)準(zhǔn)備的過(guò)程中能夠?qū)⒀潘奸喿x和雅思寫作結(jié)合起來(lái)，雙管齊下，那么復(fù)習(xí)的效果提高就很明顯了。
烤鴨們?cè)趶?fù)習(xí)的過(guò)程中注意將閱讀與寫作的話題相結(jié)合
經(jīng)常聽(tīng)很多考生在寫雅思作文的過(guò)程中反饋，沒(méi)有思路，無(wú)內(nèi)容可寫;還有一些考生，在做雅思閱讀題目的過(guò)程中，經(jīng)常抱怨文章看不懂，不知所云。實(shí)際上很多雅思閱讀文章和雅思大作文話題類似，倘若考生在準(zhǔn)備考試的過(guò)程中能把兩者很好地結(jié)合，就不會(huì)出現(xiàn)作文沒(méi)有思路，閱讀不知所云的情況了，因?yàn)榭绝唫兛梢赃\(yùn)用寫作中所積累的知識(shí)，猜出類似話題的閱讀文章中的內(nèi)容，同樣也可以運(yùn)用雅思閱讀文章中的內(nèi)容來(lái)構(gòu)思大作文。
具體舉例：在劍4 test2 passage 1 Lost for Words 這篇文章中就涉及了語(yǔ)言消亡的原因、影響及拯救辦法：The critically endangered languages are those that are only spoken by the elderly. (原因)
Why do people reject the language of their parents? It begins with a crisis of confidence, when a small community find itself along a larger, wealthier society. People lose faith in their own culture. (原因) Quite often, governments try to kill off a minority language by banning its use in public or discouraging its use in schools, all to promote national unity. (原因)
The deadliest weapon is not government policy but economic globalization. (原因)
When an unwritten and unrecorded language disappears, it is lost to science. (影響)
Language is intimately bound up with culture, so it may be difficult to preserve one without the other. (影響)
The loss of diversity may also deprive us of different ways of looking at the world. (影響)
The key to fostering diversity is for people to learn their ancestral tongue, as well as the dominant language. (拯救措施)
上述話題類的內(nèi)容在雅思寫作考試中也經(jīng)常能夠看到：
The advantages brought by the spread of English as a “global language” will outweigh the disadvantages. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this view? (05.04.16)
Some people think the increasing business and cultural contact between countries brings many positive effects. Others say it causes the loss of national identities. Discuss on both sides and give your opinion. (05.10.29)
