Part1:
除了work&study,hometown和accommodation这类必考题要及时准备之外,5-8月题库中出现了大量的新话题如outer space and star,jewelry,childhood memory等相对抽象的话题也要特别关注,在备考时,同学们除了要及时积累一些相关素材和常用表达之外,也可以用一些相关策略来进行观点的补充和句长的延伸,如:举例说明、补充细节、对比等方式来丰富自己的答案内容。
Part2:
Part2部分,本季度的整体话题量出现了大幅上涨,话题量目前已达到61题,同学们在备考时切忌掉以轻心,一定要抓紧备考,同时本季度新题如国家重要植物,法律等话题对于很多同学来说还是有一定难度的,因此像前面提到的,备考期间的素材积累很重要,但同时也不建议大家死记硬背完整的大段甚至整篇文章,还是推荐去写一些关键词,平时多练习表述以及转述能力,考场上发挥时才会比较稳定,答题的完整性和连贯性才能有保证。
考试建议
备考期间建议大家一定要配套使用我们的5-8月题库,认真复习课堂上老师教授大家的答题框架以及具体思路,注意控制时长以及加强计时训练,祝大家早日取得满意的成绩。

点评
1.本场考试的难度对比之前有较大提高,整体难度偏高,题型复杂多变。P1整体的难度不大,填空加判断的组合并没有重合部分,按序做题即可,但是加入了简答题,平时缺少该题型练习的考生可能会遇到一些困难。P2整体的难度偏高,再一次出到了6选3的多选题。P3普遍都会觉得有困难,因为出现了8道段落细节匹配,所以做题时间非常紧张,并且细节题型非常多,需要阅读的内容增加。总的来说P2(2017年1月)和P3(2021年7月)都是反复出现的旧题,希望考生们看到多种题型时,要在战略上重视,精神上藐视。雅思阅读
2.整体分析:历史类(P1),历史类(P2)和科学类(P3)。
Passage 1:Foot Pedal Irrigation脚踏式灌溉
A
Until now,governments and development agencies have tried to tackle the problem through large-scale projects:gigantic dams,sprawling,irrigation canals and vast new fields of high-yield crops introduced during the Green Revolution,the famous campaign to increase grain harvests in developing nations.Traditional irrigation,however,has degraded the soil in many areas,and the reservoirs behind dams can quickly fill up with silt,reducing their storage capacity and depriving downstream farmers of fertile sediments.Furthermore,although the Green Revolution has greatly expanded worldwide farm production since1950,poverty stubbornly persists in Africa,Asia and Latin America.Continued improvements in the productivity of large farms may play the main role in boosting food supply,but local efforts to provide cheap,individual irrigation systems to small farms may offer a better way to lift people out of poverty.
B
The Green Revolution was designed to increase the overall food supply,not to raise the incomes of the rural poor,so it should be no surprise that it did not eradicate poverty or hunger.India,for example,has been self-sufficient in food for 15 years,and its granaries are full,but more than 200million Indians-one fifth of the country's population-are malnourished because they cannot afford the food they need and because the country's safety nets are deficient.In2000,189 nations committed to the Millennium Development Goals,which called for cutting world poverty in half by 2015.With business as usual,however,we have little hope of achieving most of the Millennium goals,no matter how much money rich countries contribute to poor ones.
C
The supply-driven strategies of the Green Revolution,however,may not help subsistence farmers,who must play to their strengths to compete in the global marketplace.The average size of a family farm is less than four acres in India,1.8 acres in Bangladesh and about half an acre in China.Combines and other modern farming tools are too expensive to be used on such small areas.An Indian farmer selling surplus wheat grown on his one-acre plot could not possibly compete with the highly efficient and subsidized Canadian wheat farms that typically stretch over thousands of acres.Instead subsistence farmers should exploit the fact that their labor costs are the lowest in the world,giving them a comparative advantage in growing and selling high-value,intensely farmed crops.
D
Paul Polak saw firsthand the need for a small-scale strategy in 1981 when he met Abdul Rahman,a farmer in the Noakhali district of Bangladesh.From his three quarter-acre plots of rain-fed rice fields,Abdul could grow only 700 kilograms of rice each year-300 kilograms less than what he needed to feed his family.During the three months before the October rice harvest came in,Abdul and his wife had to watch silently while their three children survived on one meal a day or less.As Polak walked with him through the scattered fields he had inherited from his father,Polak asked what he needed to move out of poverty."Control of water for my crops,"he said,“at a price I can afford."
E
Soon Polak learned about a simple device that could help Abdul achieve his goal:the treadle pump.Developed in the late 1970s by Norwegian engineer Gunnar Barnes,the pump is operated by a person walking in place on a pair of treadles and two handle arms made of bamboo.Properly adjusted and maintained,it can be operated several hours a day without tiring the users.Each treadle pump has two cylinders which are made of engineering plastic.The diameter of a cylinder is 100.5mm and the height is 280mm.The pump is capable of working up to a maximum depth of 7 meters.Operation beyond 7 meters is not recommended to preserve the integrity of the rubber components.The pump mechanism has piston and foot valve assemblies.The treadle action creates alternate strokes in the two pistons that lift the water in pulses.
F
The human-powered pump can irrigate half an acre of vegetables and costs only$25(including the expense of drilling a tube well down to the groundwater).Abdul heard about the treadle pump from a cousin and was one of the first farmers in Bangladesh to buy one.He borrowed the$25 from an uncle and easily repaid the loan four months later.During the five-month dry season,when Bangladeshis typically farm very little,Abdul used the treadle pump to grow a quarter-acre of chili peppers,tomatoes,cabbage and eggplants.He also improved the yield of one of his rice plots by irrigating it.His family ate some of the vegetables and sold the rest at the village market,earning a net profit of$100.With his new income,Abdul was able to buy rice for his family to eat,keep his two sons in school until they were 16 and set aside a little money for his daughter's dowry.When Polak visited him again in 1984,he had doubled the size of his vegetable plot and replaced the thatched roof on his house with corrugated tin.His family was raising a calf and some chickens.He told me that the treadle pump was a gift from God.
G
Bangladesh is particularly well suited for the treadle pump because a huge reservoir of groundwater lies just a few meters below the farmers'feet.In the early 1980s IDE initiated a campaign to market the pump,encouraging 75 small private-sector companies to manufacture the devices and several thousand village dealers and tube-well drillers to sell and install them.Over the next 12 years one and a half million farm families purchased treadle pumps,which increased the farmers'net income by a total of$150 million a year.The cost of IDE's market-creation activities was only$12 million,leveraged by the investment of$37.5 million from the farmers themselves.In contrast,the expense of building a conventional dam and canal system to irrigate an equivalent area of farmland would be in the range of$2,000 per acre,or$1.5 billion.

A
The recognition of the wealth and diversity of England's coastal archaeology has been one of the most important developments of recent years.Some elements of this enormous resource have long been known.The so-called’submerged forests'off the coasts of England,sometimes with clear evidence of human activity,had attracted the interest of antiquarians since at least the eighteenth century but serious and systematic attention has been given to the archaeological potential of the coast only since the early 1980s.
B
It is possible to trace a variety of causes for this concentration of effort and interest.In the 1980s and 1990s scientific research into climate change and its environmental impact spilled over into a much broader public debate as awareness of these issues grew;the prospect of rising sea levels over the next century,and their impact on current coastal environments,has been a particular focus for concern.At the same time,archaeologists were beginning to recognize that the destruction caused by natural processes of coastal erosion and by human activity was having an increasing impact on the archaeological resource of the coast.
C
The dominant process affecting the physical form of England in the post-glacial period has been the rise in the altitude of sea level relative to the land,as the glaciers melted and the landmass readjusted.The encroachment of the sea,the loss of huge areas of land now under the North Sea and the English Channel,and especially the loss of the land bridge between England and France,which finally made Britain an island,must have been immensely significant factors in the lives of our prehistoric ancestors.Yet the way in which prehistoric communities adjusted to these environmental changes has seldom been a major theme in discussions of the period.One factor contributing to this has been that,although the rise in relative sea level is comparatively well documented,we know little about the constant reconfiguration of the coastline.This was affected by many processes,mostly quite,which have not yet been adequately researched.The detailed reconstruction of coastline histories and the changing environments available for human use will be an important theme for future research.
D
So great has been the rise in sea level and the consequent regression of the coast that each of the archaeological evidence now exposed in the coastal zone,whether being eroded or exposed as a buried land surface,is derived from what was originally terrestrial occupation.Its current location in the coastal zone is the product of later unrelated processes,and it can tell us little about past adaptations to the sea.Estimates of its significance will need to be made in the context of other related evidence from dry land sites.Nevertheless,its physical environment means that preservation is often excellent,for example in the case of the Neolithic structure excavated at the Stumble in Essex.
E
In some cases these buried land surfaces do contain evidence for human exploitation of what was a coastal environment,and elsewhere along the modem coast there is similar evidence.Where the evidence does relate to past human exploitation of the resources and the opportunities offered by the sea and the coast,it is both diverse and as yet little understood.We are not yet in a position to make even preliminary estimates of answers to such fundamental questions as the extent to which the sea and the coast affected human life in the past,what percentage of the population at any time lived within reach of the sea,or whether human settlements in coastal environments showed a distinct character from those inland.
F
The most striking evidence for use of the sea is in the form of boats,yet we still have much to learn about their production and use.Most of the known wrecks around our coast are not unexpectedly of post-medieval date,and offer an unparalleled opportunity for research which has as yet been little used.The prehistoric sewn-plank boats such as those from the Humber estuary and Dover all seem to belong to the second millennium BC;after this there is a gap in the record of a millennium,which cannot yet be explained,before boats reappear,but built using a very different technology.Boat building must have been an extremely important activity around much of our coast,yet we know almost nothing about it,Boats were some of the most complex artefact produced by pre-modem societies,and further research on their production and use make an important contribution to our understanding of past attitudes to technology and technological change.
G
Boats needed landing places,yet here again our knowledge is very patchy In many cases the natural shores and beaches would have sufficed,leaving little or no archaeological trace,but especially in later periods,many ports and harbors,as well as smaller facilities such as quays,wharves,and jetties,were built.Despite a growth of interest in the waterfront archaeology of some of our more important Roman and medieval towns,very little attention has been paid to the multitude of smaller landing places.Redevelopment of harbor sites and other development and natural pressures along the coast are subjecting these important locations to unprecedented threats,yet few surveys of such sites have been undertaken.
H
One of the most important revelations of recent research has been the extent of industrial activity along the coast.Fishing and salt production are among the better documented activities,but even here our knowledge is patchy Many forms of fishing will leave little archaeological trace,and one of the surprises of recent survey has been the extent of past investment in facilities for procuring fish and shellfish.Elaborate wooden fish weirs,often of considerable extent and responsive to aerial photography in shallow water,have been identified in areas such as Essex and the Severn estuary.The production of salt,especially in the late Iron Age and early Roman periods,has been recognized for some time,especially in the Thames estuary and around the Solent and Poole Harbor,but the reasons for the decline of that industry and the nature of later coastal salt working are much less well understood.Other industries were also located along the coast,either because the raw materials outcropped there or for ease of working and transport:mineral resources such as sand,gravel,stone,coal,ironstone,and alum were all exploited.These industries are poorly documented,but their remains are sometimes extensive and striking.
I
Some appreciation of the variety and importance of the archaeological remains preserved in the coastal zone,albeit only in preliminary form,can thus be gained from recent work,but the complexity of the problem of managing that resource is also being realised.The problem arises not only from the scale and variety of the archaeological remains,but also from two other sources:the very varied natural and human threats to the resource,and the complex web of organisations with authority over,or interests in,the coastal zone.Human threats include the redevelopment of historic towns and old dockland areas,and the increased importance of the coast for the leisure and tourism industries,resulting in pressure for the increased provision of facilities such as marinas.The larger size of ferries has also caused an increase in the damage caused by their wash to fragile deposits in the intertidal zone.The most significant natural threat is the predicted rise in sea level over the next century especially in the south and east of England.Its impact on archaeology is not easy to predict,and though it is likely to be highly localized,it will be at a scale much larger than that of most archaeological sites.Thus protecting one site may simply result in transposing the threat to a point further along the coast.The management of the archaeological remains will have to be considered in a much longer time scale and a much wider geographical scale than is common in the case of dry land sites,and this will pose a serious challenge for archaeologists.

大作文:利弊分析社会类话题
这是一道利弊类大作文,聊的是私人医疗的利弊分析。利弊类大作文需要强调在论证上体现合理性,即在具体的分析中,明确能体现出一边的论述的确是大于另一边。审题时需要注意一点,题目讨论对象是private health care,所有利弊都要围绕这个展开,不要变成公共和私人孰优孰劣,那就偏题了。
优点:
一方面私人医疗机构通常提供更高质量的服务,拥有先进的医疗设备和设施cutting-edge medical facilities。这些机构可以用更高的薪资吸引和留住高素质的医疗专业人员highly qualified medical professionals,从而提高医疗服务的质量。也能为患者提供更快的医疗服务,避免了因等待时间过长而导致病情恶化disease deterioration的风险。
另一方面,私人医疗机构往往提供个性化的医疗服务personal medical service,能够根据患者的具体需求制定治疗计划。这种个性化服务可以提高治疗效果,增强患者的满意度。例如,私人诊所可能提供一对一的医生咨询服务,详细了解患者的病史和健康状况。
弊端:
一是私人医疗服务的费用通常较高,使得普通人难以负担unaffordable。高昂的费用可能导致一些人无法获得必要的医疗服务,影响他们的健康和生活质量。例如,一次复杂的手术或长期的治疗可能花费数万元,这对于低收入家庭来说是难以承受的。
二是私人医疗机构以盈利为目的profit-oriented,可能会过度商业化,过度治疗和开具不必要的药物。这不仅增加了患者的医疗费用,还可能带来健康风险。例如,一些私人诊所可能推荐不必要的昂贵检查或治疗,以增加收入,而这些检查或治疗对患者的健康并无显著益处。
三是私人医疗服务可能导致医疗资源的不平等分配,富人可以享受更好的医疗服务,而穷人只能依赖资源有限的公立医院Public hospitals with limited resources。这种不平等可能加剧社会分化,影响社会稳定。例如,在一些国家,私立医院配备最先进的设备,而公立医院却缺乏基本的医疗设施及人员。
