我们首先来回顾下这期雅思写作考试的题目,如下:
Figures show that in some countries, there is an ever-increasing proportion of population aged 15 or younger. What do you think are the effects of current and future on those countries?
这篇雅思作文题目要如何构思写作呢?我们一起来听唐院长怎么说。
在某些国家,15岁以下的孩子数量增多,这会给这些国家的现在和将来造成什么后果?这次考试出现的是新题,这个问题可能会难住很多烤鸭。其实,如果我们稍微沉下心来想想,我们就能找到一些思路。比如:孩子多了,会不会给父母的工作生活带来压力?会不会给学校的教学质量带来压力?会不会给社会安全带来压力?而在未来,当这些孩子长大,会不会给就业带来压力?从这些思路去写,本题还是有很多内容的。
接下来,我们一起来欣赏唐院长推荐的雅思写作7分范文:
In some poorest countries in Africa, there is an ever-increasing number of people who are aged 15 or under. With the growing young population, the future of these countries can be either full of threats or opportunities.
For the present, it is clear that the current scenes across Africa are mostly bad due to problems related to the youngsters. One problem is that the weight of the young generation on the shoulders of the relatively few adults tend to drag down economic growth rates. Another problem is youth unemployment because it appears that there would be not enough jobs waiting for them when they grow a little older. Alongside youth unemployment, violent crime is among the highest on the planet. Such negative realities illustrate the threats with Africa’s growing young population.
What this trend means in the future of Africa can be either positive or negative, depending on some critical factors. On the one hand, a youthful population usually promises opportunities to boost economies and better people’s lives. It is because an increasing working-age population is a major drive for economic development. On the other hand, lack of meaningful work among young people is playing into frustration that may in some instances contribute to social unrest or unmanageable migration to Europe. Unless political leadership can offer young people something to live for, social stresses like unemployment can make them easy prey to those who offer them something to die for. In view of these two opinions, the future of Africa’s young population is an uncertainty.
In conclusion, because of the expected increase of young population in the next few decades to come, there is no telling what will happen to the poorest parts of Africa. Things are bad enough today, but they might become even worse before ever becoming better.(306 words)
