二、1月6日雅思阅读考情
新年的钟声一周前刚刚敲响，在上一年惨遭雅思折磨的小伙伴们大喊“这次我一定要拿回失去的全部”，于是踌躇满志走上考场，期待新一年的雅思也带来全新气象。翻开卷了然，填空判断加匹配，题型搭配很常规，选择在后也不怕，至少heading没叠加；可怎么做起题来心茫然，第二篇一篇更比一篇长，看不完真的看不完啊！一小时里痛苦挣扎，交完卷扶额苦笑，雅思阅读，真有你的，还是一如既往地难。那我们就一起来看看今天的阅读考试回顾吧。
Passage 1：关于一个叫Tull的人发明农耕机器的经历
类别：人文文化科普
难度：★★★
题型配比：填空题+判断题
分析：
开篇文章总是尽心尽力为大家搞科普，今天就带大家来了解Jethro·Tull发明农耕播种机的故事。这类文章通常会交代一下发明者的个人信息，如教育背景、职业之类，穿插描述所发明物品的基础原理及使用介绍，后记录其影响。本篇在题型搭配上保持了大家熟悉的填空题+判断题，但填空部分形式比较丰富，不仅有图表题，还有简答题，但其核心不变，所以大家在第一篇尽量要保持较高准确率哦~
参考答案
图表题：
1. hopper （把种子放在hopper里）
2. cylinder（轮子向前，cylinder跟着转动）

4. spikes（spikes翻动土壤盖上种子）
简答题：
5. broadcasting（欧洲之前的传统农耕方法名字）
6. vine-growing methods（Tull 第二次去欧洲受到哪种农业方法的启发）

11. NOT GIVEN
12. FALSE
13. NOT GIVEN
阅读材料：
A farmer, writer, and inventor, Jethro Tull was an instrumental figure in English agriculture, pushing to improve age-old agrarian practices by applying science and technology.
Early Life
Born in 1674 to well-to-do parents, Tull grew up on the family’s Oxfordshire estate. After withdrawing from St. John’s College in Oxford, he moved to London, where he studied the pipe organ before becoming a law student. In 1699, Tull qualified as a barrister, toured Europe, and got married.
Relocating with his bride to the family farm, Tull eschewed law to work the land. Inspired by agrarian practices he saw in Europe — including pulverized soil around evenly spaced plants — Tull was determined to experiment at home.
The Seed Drill
Jethro Tull invented the seed drill in 1701 as a way to plant more efficiently. Prior to his invention, sowing seeds was done by hand, by scattering them on the ground or placing them in the ground individually, such as with bean and pea seeds. Tull considered scattering wasteful because many seeds did not take root.
His finished seed drill included a hopper to store the seed, a cylinder to move it, and a funnel to direct it. A plow at the front created the row, and a harrow at the back covered the seed with soil. It was the first agricultural machine with moving parts. It started as a one-man, one-row device, but later designs sowed seeds in three uniform rows, had wheels and were drawn by horses. Using wider spacing than previous practices allowed horses to draw the equipment and not step on the plants.
Passage 2：关于废弃建筑对人的影响
类别：建筑
难度：★★★★
题型配比：段落信息匹配题+人名观点匹配题+填空题
分析：
翻页的手看到第二篇的匹配组合本来就烦，建筑类文章更是让大家一个脑袋两个大，看不完真的看不完，第二篇怎么这么难这么难。建筑类文章已是雅思老相好，12月30日、12月9日第二篇文章都是建筑类话题，小航就“啰嗦啰嗦”，再跟大家谈一谈建筑类话题文章。从主题来看，历史建筑、现代建筑都会涉及，但谈到历史建筑时会更倾向于描述其风格、用途、文化背景，而谈到现代建筑时则有意突出其创新技术、可持续发展相关内容；建筑材料如混凝土、钢铁、玻璃等描述也是可能遇到的话题，此外，建筑与社会、环境之间的关系也会成为文章探讨的主题。大家可结合剑18 Test 3 Passage 1 Materials to take us beyond concrete, 剑17 Test 1 Passage 1 The development of the London underground railway, Passage 2 Staduims: past, present and future 进行建筑类话题文章练习。
参考答案
段落信息匹配题：
14. F (一栋对人们产生积极影响的建筑)
15. A （建筑对人们在工作场合表现的影响）
16. B （人们在两种城市环境中被引发情绪的不同程度）

24. facade
25. escalators
26. atrium

三、1月6日雅思写作考情
小作文
The table below shows the production of milk annually in four countries in 1990, 2000 and 2010.
本次小作文考察的是动态图（表格），图中比较了Netherlands， Australia，Tanzania，Guatemala四个国家在三个不同年份的牛奶产量。可以看到尽管多数国家的产量都呈上升趋势，总产量仍然有所下降。同时，Netherlands与 Australia两个国家三十年间的牛奶产量明显高于另外两个国家，因此，分段可以数据较大的两个国家一组，数据较小的两个国家一组。整体来看本次小作文难度不大。
大作文
Some people believe children should have organized activities in their free time. Others believe children should decide what to do in their free time on their own. Discuss both sides and give your opinion.
本次大作文考察的是教育类双边讨论话题。这道题的关键在于题干中的两个views并不是对立的，在很多情况下，孩子在空闲时间既可以参加organized activities，也可以自由安排，二者其实是可以兼容的，因此写作结构上两个主体段分别提出相应的分论点，并展开论证，结尾段重申个人观点即可。整体来看难度不大。
Paragraph 1 - Introduction - 引入话题 + 个人观点陈述
People have differing views about how much choice children should have with regard to what they can do in their spare time. Some argue that children should engage in scheduled activities, while others believe that they can make their own decisions. My view is that these two views, in many cases, are not mutually exclusive.
Paragraph 2 - Body 1 – View 1 – Children are supposed to participate in organized programs in their leisure time
Argument 1: 参加organized activities可以让孩子拥有高质量的自由时间
Supporting Evidence: 家长通常会为孩子安排一些有意义的活动，比如要求孩子参加兴趣班，after-school tutoring classes或者voluntary work等，这些活动能够help them take up hobbies, enhance academic performance and develop a sense of responsibility。（对比论证）如果不为孩子安排特定的活动，放任他们自由安排，许多孩子由于缺乏self-discipline and time-managing abilities，他们更愿意stay in their comfort zone and are obsessed with activities like video games and TV viewing，因此荒废自由时间。
Paragraph 3 – Body 2 – View 2 – Children should be allowed to allocate their free time by themselves
Argument 1: 孩子自由安排空闲时间能够foster independence and exercise their decision-making skills
Supporting Evidence: 作为独立的个体，they will always take the first step towards making their own decisions。因此，if they have the freedom to determine how to spend their leisure time in an early age，不仅能够学习如何安排自己的空余时间，decrease reliance on others，对于他们after growing up做其他的决策也会有所助益。
Argument 2: 给予孩子自由有助于facilitate the establishment of a harmonious parent-child relationship
Supporting Evidence: 允许他们自由安排时间is a testament to parents’ respect for kids and trust in their children’s ability to well organize free time，这样可以避免孩子变得叛逆rebellious，thus creating a good family atmosphere。
Paragraph 4 – Conclusion - 重申个人观点
In conclusion, it is vital to arrange activities for kids to spend their free time, 同时giving them freedom也很重要。
