ETS官方标准解读及点评：
我们来看一下这段回答，基本也是符合了上述点评中解析的三个标准的要求。首先内容部分我们就不说了。再看语言，词汇方面，“complicated”，”stage ”，“undergraduate” ，“expand”，“specific”都是四级词汇，感觉更难是因为TASK 2涉及到了一些如教育，科技等比起第一题相对更专业的话题，所以会有一些专有概念词汇，比如“undergraduate”，“course”，这些增加了用词准确性的难度，但是句型方面依然是比较单一，主要用的都是 “if ..., then ..." 的假设条件句。这再次验证了独立题的语言要求并不太高，以能达意为主。所以同学们在复习的时候切记为了玩儿花样套用复杂句式而滥用所谓套句高级句，最后连话都说不清楚导致失分的悲剧。
