The map above presents differences between layout of a school in 1985 and that in this year.

In 1985, the school with the total population of 1,500 had a big car park at the north end and a long road extended at the south of the car park with a playing field at the dead end of the road. On the west side of school, there was an office, a library, a small car park and classrooms. On the opposite side, 2-story classrooms were there.

At present, the school has changed a lot. First of all, the student population has increased to 2,300. Then, the road in the middle has been replaced by trees. Moreover, the original library on the west side has disappeared and a computer room and a resource centre were built instead, and the small car park on the west side also disappeared. Lastly, the areas of 2-story classrooms were reduced by two-thirds, and more classrooms were constructed in the place.

Overall, the teaching facilities and resources become more various now.

2）Bar（柱状图）

The chart below shows the change of household car ownership in a European country in four different time periods.

Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

Percentage of Private Cars

参考范文

The bar chart shows the variation in the percentage of households that owned no car, one car and two or more cars in a European country during a 30-year period from 1971 to 2001.

As can be seen from the bar chart, the car was a much less popular household item in the 1970s than it is today. Over 50%of families in this country did not have a car of their own in 1971, 35% had only one car, and less than one fifth of those families owned two or more cars.

The next decade, however, saw a significant increase in car ownership. In 1981, the percentage of families with one car decreased to 30% while that of households with no cars sharply declined to approximately 40%. During the same period, nearly 3o% of those families owned two or more cars.

From 1991 to 2001, an increasing number of families purchased their first car, pushing the percentage of households with one car to a record high of 50% in 1991 and over 40% in 2001. At the same time, there was also a slight decrease in the percentage of families without a car and the percentage of families with two or more cars, not surprising, kept increasing from 21% in 1991 to nearly 30% at the end of the 30-year period.

Task 2 考题题库

1）同意与否

Most of the world’s problems are caused by over-population. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

参考范文

One of the most conspicuous trends is the booming population among many countries. It is claimed that this phenomenon should be blamed for causing most of the problems in the world. I find myself on the same side of this opinion, as the major worldwide issues, by nature, are related to peace and development.

Overpopulation is one of the most direct factors which triggers the war between countries. The ever-increasing population means the governments have to try all ways out to support the survival of their citizens. Unfortunately, there is not the equal distribution of resources, such as land, water, and metal materials among every international member. As a result, it is inevitable for some countries to encounter the problem of resources exhaustion due to the excessive demands of their locals. If the conflicts cannot be smoothly tackled, the far-right parties, colonialists and militarists will launch wars against others, especially for those who embrace abundant resources. For example, Japan, a relatively small country with the number of population over 100 million, barbarically and outrageously invaded China, attempting to annex the rich and productive lands.

In addition to the peace-and-war problem, the challenges in development forced by the world can also be attributed to the overpopulation. Many underdeveloped countries, such as Pakistan, Brazil and Mexico have been witnessing the over-swelling population and shrinking job opportunities, which is doomed to result in the higher unemployment rate. Thus it may increase the chance of social instability, as the jobless people with resentment and disappointment may easily form gangs or groups to commit robbery or other more serious crimes. Even worse, a large proportion of the unemployed and impoverished may illegally immigrate to Europe or the USA, contributing to the damage to the preservation of local culture in terms of religion, language and customs.

In conclusion, overpopulation threats global peace and development.

2）报告类：

Nowadays people are living in a “throw-away” society where we use things for a short time and throw them away.

What are the causes of the problem?

What effects does the phenomenon lead to?

参考范文

As convenience is valued over environmental conservation, modern people are likely to throw away products only used for a short period of time instead of keeping these items. It is important to reverse this trend immediately.

The causes of the development of the "throw-away society" are clear, so are its impacts. The most apparent reason is that technological advancement reduces the cost of production. It is because of the fact, the public do not value what they have owned as much as they used to. Some electronic products such as mobile phones and computers are now sold at low prices, and this is why many people would discard them rather than repairing them as the expense of purchasing a brand new one is not quite high. By doing so, these non-biodegradable products can have a detrimental effect on the environment, and as a result pollution is the price we are paying for the consumerism.

Another reason is because of the influence of advertising campaign. Being exposed to various advertisements, which inform customers of new goods as well as create a trend for them to chase, it is difficult for them to resist the temptation of being fashionable and glamorous by purchasing the latest products. Obviously, an unhealthy lifestyle may emerge. In an attempt to become fashion chasers, people especially the younger generation would waste a great deal of money and time on trying diverse commodities, being materially abundant but spiritually barren.

In conclusion, considering destructive effects of this phenomenon on both environment and individuals, some steps such as raising people’s awareness of environmental protection should be done effectively to prevent the serious situation from becoming worse.

3）双边讨论类

Some people believe famous people's support towards international aid organizations draws the attention to problems, while others think celebrities make the problems less important. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

参考范文

It has long been noted that many celebrities, ranging from the royal members like princess Diana to Holly-wood movie stars like Audrey Hepburn, are actively involved in international aid activities. However, this celebrity involvement has raised many disputes recently. From my perspective, famous people’s supporting for global aid organization can bring more benefits.

There is no doubt that celebrities like sports stars and singers are high-profile figures who are surrounded by reporters and paparazzi wherever they go. When they participate in charity work or advocate for some aid programs, the news spread immediately. Therefore, more people will get to know these aid organizations. Besides, when celebrities make a donation or appeal to help the needy, they set a good example for the public, especially for their fans who are keen to follow their idols’ action to help others by fundraising and other contributions. Take Angelina Jolie as an illustration. She has long been involved in humanitarian work, visiting refugee camps around the world and devoting her life to helping poor children. Her actions have successfully helped to highlight the aid organization and relevant problems.

However, those opponents indicate that it is the famous people’s involvement rather than the actual aid organization that more media attention may be given to. This can draw attention away from the real problem itself. Besides, the public may form recognition that since so many celebrities have already got involved and given substantial donations, they have no need to take a real action. What’s worse, some superstars only want to increase their fame by taking part in aid campaigns instead of conveying the intended message of organizations. Without passion, these pop stars are unlikely to take any follow-up or long-term actions. Therefore, the public will soon feel that it is just another show arranged for these pop stars, and may even develop a negative feeling towards it.

In conclusion, although there may be some negative effects, I still strongly believe that famous people’s supporting for charity activities can lead to a far-reaching influence. If they can show their genuine concern and take positive actions, they can contribute to the world charity work considerably.
