I. 60 MINUTES ON THE EQUIPMENTDAY min
Partly written, 60 minutes, two articles.
| Task 2 essays, Task 1 essay, Task | --- | --- | --- | | ** Sequence** ** Script** (high score)** Script** | ** Time** 40 minutes (comprising 3-4 minutes outline) 20 minutes (comprising 1-2 minutes) | ** Word** ≥ 250 (recommended 270-300) ≥ 150 (recommended 170-190) |
Two hard facts:
- Task 2 points weight twice as much as Task 1, so write a big essay and leave it in the best position.
- Minor ** Less than 150 words**, Big ** Less than 250 words**, Task Achievement (mission completion degree) directly tops 5.0-5.5, no matter how good the language. I’d rather write 20 more words than take the risk of counting.
Scramble in 40 minutes.
| Time, time, time. | --- | --- | | 0-4 min | reading, collating the subject’s key limit words, identifying the theme outline (two arguments + each example) | 4-34 min | Written body (30 minutes: beginning 5 minutes, ending 5 minutes for each of the two main segments) | 34-440 min | Check: word count, time-consistency, apparent spelling error, runphrase
The outline is one of the six-point and 6.5-point watersheds: half of those who don’t have an outline have arguments that are repetitive or that have no examples to write, are hard-on, and hard-on paragraphs can be seen at first sight by the examiner.
On what basis does the examiner rate?
Four rating dimensions for writing, goal 6.5-7.
| Dimension 6 minutes 7 minutes (to be) | --- | --- | --- | | Task Response Mission accomplished ** answered questions ** but some points were not sufficiently developed ** Position clear ** ** ** Task completed ** ** ** | Coherence & Cohesion Consistency Consistency | Subsistence ** | | | ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** | Lexical Resources Vocabulary sufficient but not flexible enough to repeat ** Very good words** and synonyms | ** Grammatic Range & Accuracy** Syntax: ** ** ** **
The most common state for candidates for “English is already good” is that the syntax vocabulary actually has a 6.5-7 level,** but Task Reponse and consistency are dragged to the following 6** - i.e. “no answer point” and “no intrinsic logic”.
III. IV. Question recognition and skeleton
Big essays are only four types, first learning 30 seconds to recognize:
| The title, the title, the title, the nature of the task, the title, the title, the title, the title. | --- | --- | --- | | ♪ To what argument do you agree or disagree? | ♪ Discuss both views and give your own opinion. ♪ | Problem-Solution** ♪ What problems… ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ problem ♪ ♪ problem ♪ ♪ solution ♪ | ♪ Do the advantages outweigh the disadvantages? ♪
Four skeletons (both based on one shape: ** the first sentence takes a position → the two main sections prove one point each → the end words repeat**):
① 观点题(完全同意) Intro :让步式开头(见下节) Body 1 :同意的核心理由 + 具体例子 Body 2 :承认反方观点的合理性 → 立刻反驳(让步段) Conclusion:重申立场
② 讨论题 Intro :概括双方观点,说明自己将如何展开(可暂不亮明立场) Body 1 :观点 A 是什么 + 为什么有人这么想 + 例子 Body 2 :观点 B 是什么 + 为什么有人这么想 + 例子 Conclusion:给出自己的看法并给一句理由 ⚠️ 讨论题最容易犯的错:只夸观点 A、把观点 B 写成靶子。两段要"公平"。
③ 问题解决题 Intro :指出该现象及其影响(一句话) Body 1 :2 个问题(或 1 大 1 小),每个都有原因与后果 Body 2 :2 个解决方案,与 Body 1 的问题一一对应 Conclusion:呼吁/总结
④ 利弊题 Intro :让步式开头,先让利/弊"赢"一句 Body 1 :写多的一方(若你认为利大于弊,就详写利) Body 2 :写少的一方 + 用一句说明它为何不足以推翻结论 Conclusion:明确"利大于弊 / 弊大于利"IV. GREAT START STRUCTURE (CUTTING)
** Don’t ** write “with the development of society…” (90% of template candidates start with direct alert). With the beginning of the paragraph, ”** Compromise**”, the text reads as follows:
While it is true that I believe [your position], because [one central reason].
Structurally: a concession (convincing a counter-argument) a position (clear and unambiguous) a reason (predict full-text logic).
Examples (working at home, views):
While flexible remote work clearly benefits employees’ work–life balance, I believe it is on balance a negative development for companies, because collaboration and innovation suffer when teams rarely meet in person.
** The sentence is a condensed version of the entire article**: Body 1 speaks of cooperation, Body 2 speaks of innovation, ending with a kickback on base. After reading the first paragraph, the examiner knew that you were capable of controlling the whole-text structure — a typical signal for Coherence above 6.5.
What about partial agreement? No problem:
While I largely agree that stricter fines reduce traffic violations, I would argue that they must be combined with better road design to be truly effective.
Note:** Positions must cover each dimension of the question**. Question “agree or disagree” means you have to have an equal value expression of “agree” or “disagree”; write “no” = throw “Task” directly.
V. body PEEL formulae
P.E.E.L.:
| Letters, letters, meanings, words, words. | --- | --- | --- | | P Point argument | what this paragraph has to prove ** | E Explain explains why this argument is valid and logical | E Example Example **Specific example: numbers, cities, research, institutions, personal observations | LL |Link kickback ** pull this conclusion back to the title keyword
** Example (justification: telework damage company collaboration):**
P — Perhaps the most serious drawback is the erosion of spontaneous collaboration. E — When colleagues communicate only through scheduled calls, the informal exchanges in which ideas are tested and problems solved quietly disappear. E — For instance, a 2023 survey of 5,000 UK office workers found that over half of their most useful ideas emerged from unplanned conversations. L — Without such interactions, the very cooperation that makes a company more than a collection of individuals weakens noticeably.
P.E.E.L. is the easiest to lose E-Example: “for example, many people like it” equals nothing. For example,** concrete enough to imagine the image**: to speak of numbers, of institutions. In turn, if you can give a specific example, even if the vocabulary is simple, Task Reponse will be higher than “higher word plus empty words.”
** A hidden request**: Key limiting words for the title** cross-text responses**. The title is “young people”, not just general “people”; the title is limited to “in cities” and examples must occur in cities. The examiner answers your paragraph by paragraph and drops the score if you don’t find it.
VI. CONTEXT
It’s not the end of the line, it’s the end of the line.
结论 = 用新词重述立场 + (利弊题加一句判断 / 讨论题给一句理由 / 建议题给一句提醒)Do not copy the beginning word for word (the examiner calculates the symmetrical replacement points) or introduce new arguments (the new points that do not have time to open will become points of deduction).
- Perceptions:In conclusion, while flexible work brings genuine benefits to individuals, its long-term cost to company innovation convinces me that it should remain the exception rather than the rule.
- Advantages and disadvantages:*Although the drawbacks of … are real, I am convinced they are outweighed by …♪ A clear “though” sentence will fill the edges
VII. CONCLUSION word: Content, no template tracks
First… These are the template characterizations that the examiner is looking at.
In the progressive expression ** bound to content**, the synonym itself carries information:
| Functions, writing, writing. | --- | --- | | The main argument is: The most immediate benefit is that… | | Add the second argument. This is compounded by the fact that… / A further concern relates to… | | Turn around. The key point, however, is that… / This is not to say that… | | Let’s make a deal. While it is true that…, the evidence points the other way… | | Example: A case in point is… / This can be seen in… | | Summary of findings On balance, / Taken together, these points suggest that… |
The connecting truth is that** the logic between the paragraphs is per se consistent, so that the conjunction word is valid**. First, we’ll make sure that there’s an evolutionary relationship between “grounds one in the previous paragraph and two in the next”.
Eight or six good English, but a six. The pit.
- ** Semi-response**: only half of the answer was given. Response - When reading the subject, circle the qualifier of the subject and look back at whether there was a response.
- ** Evident example**: “for example, many people…” = zero. Response - Specific verifiable information must emerge in the case.
- ** Comma spline**: I think it is good, it links time. Two complete commas are syntax injuries. The more fluent English is, the easier it is to step on it — to break it.
- ** A large body of text**: at least 4 to 5 (start / 2 subject / end) with each paragraph referring to only one centre.
- ** Words do not meet the target**: see above, directly top 5.0-5.5.
- ** Template sentence stacked**: The more the “mixed sentence” on the back, the lower the LR symmetrical replacement score — the examiner points to “the true language you can produce.”
IX. COMPREHENSIVE PURPOSE (paragraph by paragraph)
♪ Some people think that government should spend more money on landways rather than roads. ♪
While roads remain essential for natural communities and last-milled well, I believe that shifting the bulk of transport funding is a problem, because it offers a chance and route to move broad numbers of people.
The argument needs to explain logic in moving distance, as far as the statistics corresponded to the statistics system.
The second reason is that there’s a situation of protection of the European Commissions, who are responsible for 10 per cent of the business life of refugees, who are responsible for reporting missions in that capacity only by 5 per cent.
This is not to say that rods should be eliminated; rural areas and bright still diend on them, and most likely highway is because of their own cost.
In conclusion, though Roads must equally funded, the efficacy and environmental relations of civil society should direct a substantial share of transport blocks towards completion.
** The four main points of the text** (also self-censorship when you write):
- First sentence = full map;
- Each of the main sections contains specific examples at the “institutional/data/city” level;
- There is a concession, and the view is not biased and logical;
- There is no copy of the template sentence.
X. PROFESSIONAL SOURCES OF ISSUES (3)
See section IX above (railways/roads) for a sample of views. The remaining three categories are completed in this section, each with a direct comparison of the fourth and fifth skeletons.
Discussion
Some people believe that university students should pay all the costs of their studies because a university education mainly benefits the individual. Others think governments should pay because educated people benefit society as a whole. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
While it is true that a degree mostly raises the earner’s own salary and career prospects, I believe that charging students the full cost of university would be a serious mistake, because society benefits from an educated population almost as much as graduates do.
Those who favour full fees argue that higher education is a private investment. Graduates typically earn more over a lifetime than non-graduates, so it seems fair that they, rather than taxpayers, should pay for the training that produces those higher wages. In countries where fees are high, such as England, this logic has led many students to choose “safe” subjects with clear job outcomes, because they cannot afford to take risks with their own money.
The opposing view, which I share, is that education creates benefits that spill over to everyone. Doctors, teachers and engineers all graduate from university, yet their work serves the whole society, not just themselves. Moreover, a more educated population tends to be healthier, more innovative and more tolerant, which reduces public costs elsewhere. Finland and Germany, where tuition is free, consistently rank among the most productive economies in Europe—evidence that funding students publicly pays for itself over time.
That said, I am not arguing that individuals should pay nothing. A moderate fee, or a graduate tax paid only after graduates start earning, keeps students serious about their studies while protecting those from poorer families from being priced out of university altogether.
In conclusion, although individual graduates do gain personally from a degree, the wider social benefits are so large that making students bear the full cost would be both unfair and economically short-sighted.
Walk: A concession begins with a bright position →Body 1 with a “pay-for-money” view →Body 2 gives the “government pays” view + an example → a compromise → final judgment.
Problem-Solution
In many cities, traffic congestion is getting worse every year. What problems does this cause? What solutions can you suggest?
Traffic congestion is increasingly choking large cities, and its costs are far greater than the time lost in queues. The most visible problem is lost productivity: millions of commuters sit in gridlock for an hour or more every day, time that could have been spent working or with their families. A second, less obvious problem is health. Stationary traffic burns fuel inefficiently, so congested roads pump far more exhaust into the air; in cities like Beijing and Delhi, peak-hour pollution has been directly linked to rising rates of asthma among children.
The most effective solution is to make alternatives genuinely better than driving. This means expanding metro and bus networks so that public transport is faster than a car for the same journey, as London and Tokyo have done. Congestion charging, already used in London and Singapore, is a second lever: drivers pay a fee to enter the city centre, and the revenue is reinvested in public transport. Third, cities can redesign themselves around shorter journeys—allowing remote work, clustering housing near offices and keeping schools close to residential areas reduces the number of long car trips in the first place.
There will always be some drivers who need their cars, such as delivery workers and disabled people, which is why solutions must be layered rather than a single ban. Exemptions and well-designed charging keep the system fair while still pushing most commuters towards the train or the bus.
In conclusion, congestion damages both the economy and public health, but a combination of better public transport, road pricing and smarter city planning can relieve it—and many of these measures already have proven results elsewhere.
Walking: The phenomenon of the beginnings — Body 1 — two questions (with consequences and examples) — The Body 2 programme corresponds to the question 1 — a statement of equity (layered programme) — the end of the line. The program must be “right.”
Advantages/Disadvantages
More and more people are choosing to work from home rather than commuting to an office every day. Do the advantages of this outweigh the disadvantages?
While working from home clearly brings real drawbacks, I am convinced that, for most workers, its advantages outweigh them, provided that companies manage remote teams thoughtfully.
The greatest benefit is the time and money saved by removing the commute. A worker who used to spend two hours a day travelling now gains roughly 40 hours a month, time that often goes into family life, exercise or simply a proper night’s sleep. Employers gain too: companies that allow remote work can recruit from a much wider pool of talent and often report lower office costs. For employees with children or disabilities, flexible working can be the difference between having a career and not having one at all.
The drawbacks are equally real. Spontaneous collaboration weakens when colleagues only meet through scheduled video calls, and some studies of remote teams suggest that innovation suffers as a result. New employees also lose the informal mentoring that happens naturally around an office, which can slow their development. Furthermore, home workers frequently struggle to switch off, and the boundary between work and rest becomes blurred.
However, these problems are not inevitable. Regular in-person days, clear rules about after-hours messages and structured mentoring programmes have all been shown to restore much of what is lost, which is why companies such as Microsoft and Alibaba now mix remote days with fixed office days. With sensible management, the drawbacks shrink while the savings remain.
In conclusion, although remote work can weaken collaboration and blur work–life boundaries, its advantages in time, cost and flexibility are so substantial that, managed well, it does more good than harm for most people and most employers.
