参考文章和具体题目：

Bovids牛科动物

A.The family of mammals called bovids belongs to the Artiodacty class,which also includes giraffes.Bovids are highly diverse group consisting of 137 species,some of which are man's most important domestic animals.

B.Bovids are well represented in most parts of Eurasia and Southeast Asian islands,but they are by far the most numerous and diverse in the latter.Some species of bovid are solitary,but others live in large groups with complex social structures.Although bovids have adapted to a wide range of habitats,from arctic tundra to deep tropical forest,the majority of species favour open grassland,scrub or desert.This diversity of habitat is also matched by great diversity in size and form:at one extreme is the royal antelope of West Africa,which stands a mere 25 cm at the shoulder,at the other,the massively built bisons of North America and Europe,growing to a shoulder height to 2.2m.

C.Despite differences in size and appearance,bovids are united by the possession of certain common features.All species are ruminants,which means that they retain undigested food in their stomachs,and regurgitate it as necessary.Bovids are almost exclusively herbivorous

D.Typically their teeth are highly modified for browsing and grazing:grass or foliage is cropped.with the upper lip and lower incisora**(the upper incisors are usually absent),and then ground down by the cheek teeth.As well as having cloven,or split,hooves,the males of ail bovid species and the females of most carry horns.Bovi horns have bony cores covered in a sheath of horny material that is constantly renewed from within;they are unbranched and never shed.They vary in shape and size;the relatively simple horns of a large Indian buffalo may measure around 4 m from tip to tip along the outer curve,while the various gazelles have horns with a variety of elegant curves.

E.Five groups,or sub-families,may be distinguished:Bovinae,Antelope,Caprinae,Cephalophinae and Antiloeapridae.The sub-family Bovinae comprises most of the larger bovids,including the African bongo,and nigae,eland,bison and cattle.Unlike most other bovids,they are all non-territorial.The ancestors of the various species of domestic cattle banteng,gaur,yak and water buffalo are generally rare and endangered in the wild,while the aoroch(the ancestor of the domestic cattle of Europe)is extinct.

F.The term'antelopel is not a very precise zoological name-it is used to loosely describe a number of bovids that have allowed different lines of development.Antelopes are typically long-legged,fast-running species,often with long home that may be laid along the back when the animal is in full flight.There are two main subgroups of antelope:Hippotraginae,which includes the oryx and the addax,and Antilopinae,which generally contains slighter and more graceful animals such as gazello and the springbok.Antelopes are mainly grassland species,but many have adapted to flooded grasslands;pukus,waterbucks and lechwes are all good at swimming,usually feeding in deep water,while the sitatunga has long,splayed hooves that enable it to walk freely on swampy ground.

G.The sub-family Caprinae includes the sheep and the goat,together with various relatives such as the goral and the tahr.Most are woolly or have long hair.Several species,such as wild goats,chamois and ibes,are agile cliff-and mountain-dewellers.Tolerance of extreme conditions is most marked in this group:Barbary and bighorn sheep have adapted to arid deserts,while Rocky Mountain sheep survive high up in mountains and musk oxen in arctic tundra.

H.The duiker of Africa belongs to the Cephalophinas sub-family.It is generally small and solitary,often living in thick forest.Although manly feeding on grass and leaves,some dnikers-unlike most other bovids-are believed to eat insects and feed on dead animal carcasses,and even to kill small animals.雅思机经

I.Te pronghorn is the sole survivor of a New World sub-amily of herbivorous ruminants,the Antilocapridae in North America.Ilt is similar in appearance and habits to the Old World antelope.Although greatly reduced in numbers since the arrival of Europeans,and the subsequent enclosure of grasslands,the pronghorn is still found in considerable numbers throughout North America,from Washington State to Mexico.When alarmed by the approach of wolves or other predators,hairs on the pronghorn's rump stand erect,so showing and emphasizing the white patch there.At this signal,the whole herd gallops off at speed of over 60 km per hour.

雅思写作

小作文：动态表格

大作文：Some people believe that international trade and communication with other countries is a positive trend,while others think it is harmful to nations and they might lose their identities.Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

点评

1.本次考试难度一般。

2.整体分析：

Task 1：表格

注意：

1)首先要确定是动静态图，注意图形的时态，分清动静态的重点内容，着重表达trend和ranking/comparison情况

2)表格图要去确定数据为多还是少，来调整文章重点数据信息表达；整体对比上一定要出现横纵向对比

相关表达：

The whole decade witnessed a sharp increase in...

There was a sharp increase in...雅思真题

The percentage of...was the highest,increasing from...to...

Task 2：经济全球化类话题

题目翻译：有的人认为国际贸易与交流是一个积极的趋势，但是另外一些人却认为这对于国家身份有消极影响。讨论双方观点，给出自己观点

从话题上来说，属于全球化类话题，这是相对来说比较简单的话题，难度并不算大，并且也是同学们比较熟悉的方面。在思考观点的过程中，要注意审题中的trade and communication两个角度，可以从商业和文化两个角度来聊。

从类型上来说，属于双边的文章，需要考虑双边观点与自己观点之间的联系

参考写法：

第一段：题目改写+中立（both positive and negative effects)

第二段：的确是一个积极的趋势。1.国家间的商业交流使得国与国之间往来更加密切，促进共同进步（strengthen relationship between countries，promote mutual improvement；2.文化交流使得人们的生活丰富多彩，了解多国文化

第三段：但是，也确实造成了国家身份的丢失。1，国家间的商业交流使得部分较弱的企业被比下去，被迫倒闭，而这些多半来自于发展中国家，使得他们不具有自己的招牌2，文化交流使得部分人开始偏爱外国文化，对于自己国家文化忽略，从而使得自己国家文化无人传承和发扬

第四段：重申自己的态度

题目思路：

主体段1:admittedly，It is a positive trend to make business and cultural contact with other countries.First，the business contact between countries can strengthen the relationship between them and promote mutual development.可举例或解释说明商业交流使得一些国家make profits while others have wider choices.Secondly,enrich our life and realize more about other countries,比如美剧英剧

主体段2：however,it also causes the loss of national identity.Firstly,for those which can not compete with powerful companies,they are more likely to be defeated and face the bankruptcy even in their own market.What is worse，the infiltration of culture leads to the ignorance of local culture such as the preference towards hiphop instead of traditional Chinese folk music.

考试建议

1.小作文：多复习基础数据图；1月份会有流程/地图题出现一次，要预警

大作文：重点关注媒体、科技，社会发展类话题。

雅思口语

点评

Part1:

第一部分的话题已经基本稳定，整体难度并不大。在part1大家要听清问题，给出答案以及相应的解释，尽可能拓展细节，多补充好的单词和句子。答案把控在2-3句话，不用说的特别长，避免被打断。雅思备考

Part2：

第二部分的新题经过几场考试也稳定了下来，在part2大家要多描述，往自己熟悉的方面去靠，很多题目也可以使用同一个素材进行串联，同学们在考前准备的时候可以多多思考串联的方法，同时保证不要跑题。

考试建议

口语考试面临一个大的改变就是以后全部采用视频对话的形式，但是题目范围和难度不变，大家一定要充分利用口语题库，多去熟悉话题范围，争取考出满意的成绩。
