考题文字

Some people believe that teenagers should learn all school subjects, while others claim that students should focus on the subjects that they are best at or that they are interested in. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

点评：小作文是综合图表，但都牵涉到横向比较。学生要掌握横向比较的构思方法，描写的句型词汇，如排序，倍数等表达。小作文数据较多，要注意选择，构思较简单；大作文考题为以前的旧题，教育类。

考题文字

Nowadays, the traditions and customs relating to the food we eat and the way we eat are changing. Why is it happening? Do you think this kind of change is positive or negative?

点评：小作文贴近生活，完成150字难度系数不高，学生要学会适当的imagination的能力。大作文关注文化类话题，对于考G类的考生应该不会陌生。但此次的问题模式不是常见的讨论类模式，是问题原因和讨论类的综合，所以审题和对文章结构的安排有一定难度。考生平时一定要加强brainstorming 的能力以及文章各种结构的安排。
