Bên cạnh hướng dẫn thêm cách phân tích cũng như bài sửa kĩ càng của học sinh IELTS TUTOR đã đi thi ngày 22/8 nhé, IELTS TUTOR hướng dẫn kĩ Cách làm bài khi đề có yếu tố tuyệt đối (best/only/always/all/nothing/no/so sánh nhất...)IELTS WRITING TASK 2
I. Giới thiệu chung
1. Các từ tuyệt đối thường gặp trong đề IELTS WRITING TASK 2
IELTS TUTOR lưu ý:
- Các từ tuyệt đối thường chứa trong đề là best/only/always/all/nothing/no/so sánh nhất
- Với các đề có các từ chỉ tuyệt đối, dạng opinion essay sẽ khó hơn các dạng khác (discuss both views hay 2 question) nên IELTS TUTOR tập trung hướng dẫn cách viết dạng OPINION ESSAY với yếu tố tuyệt đối nhé
II. Cách viết các đề có yếu tố tuyệt đối
1. Xác định đúng câu đề yêu cầu nêu quan điểm
IELTS TUTOR lưu ý:
- Cần xem kĩ từ tuyệt đối trong đề chỉ nằm ở context hay nằm ở ngay câu đề cần nhận định quan điểm vì đề bài IELTS WRITING TASK 2 dài sẽ rất dễ gây nhầm lẫn như IELTS TUTOR có hướng dẫn kĩ về Bố cục đề bài IELTS WRITING TASK 2
IELTS TUTOR xét ví dụ:
- In many countries imprisonment is the most common solution to crimes. However, some people believe that better education will be a more effective solution. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
IELTS TUTOR giải thích:
Trong đề này, có thể thấy từ tuyệt đối chỉ xuất hiện trong context của đề còn câu cần bày tỏ quan điểm chính là "some people believe that better education will be a more effective solution" như vậy đề này vẫn làm như bình thường, nếu TOTALLY AGREE với quan điểm đề cho thì ở 2 đoạn thân bài cần nêu 2 lí do vì sao lại TOTALLY AGREE với quan điểm "better education will be a more effective solution"
2. Cách viết dạng opinion essay với yếu tố tuyệt đối
2.1. Giới thiệu chung
IELTS TUTOR lưu ý:
- Cũng giống như cách viết chung của dạng opinion essay, đối với những đề có các từ chỉ tuyệt đối như best/only/always/all/nothing/no/so sánh nhất... cũng sẽ có 3 cách viết:
- Totally agree
- Totally disagree
- Partly
2.2. Cách viết "totally"
IELTS TUTOR lưu ý:
- Đối với cách viết TOTALLY sẽ nêu 2 lí do vì sao lại TOTALLY với quan điểm đề cho
IELTS TUTOR xét ví dụ:
The growing number of overweight people is putting a strain on the health care system in an effort to deal with the health issues involved. Some people think that the best way to deal with this problem is to introduce more physical education lessons in the school curriculum. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
2.3. Cách viết "partly"
IELTS TUTOR lưu ý:
- Đối với cách viết PARTLY sẽ ở intro nêu rõ quan điểm đề cho cũng đúng, bên cạnh đó bản thân cho rằng còn ý kiến khác cũng đúng
- Body 1: nêu quan điểm đề cho đúng như thế nào
- Body 2: nêu ý kiến bản thân quan điểm khác cũng đúng chứ không chỉ mỗi quan điểm đề cho đúng
Spoken communication is always more powerful than written communication. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
In this day and age, some people hold the belief that oral communication outclasses written communication in all aspects. While it cannot be denied that spoken communication is important, I do believe that an effective means of communication depends on the situation.
On the one hand, spoken communication entails not only words but also intonation and body gestures, which enormously contribute to the impact that the speakers exert on others. For further elucidation, in certain circumstances, presenting is a more effective approach to convey messages given that a speaker can appeal to more people with a unique tone and attractive body language than a long monotonous essay. A prime example is that in most of the electoral campaigns, candidates often deliver speeches to seek advocates instead of writing letters because their devotion and dedication can be more easily illustrated through words and gestures.
On the other hand, writing is undeniably an effective communication method because of its formality and reliability. To elaborate, a piece of writing often uses formal or academic terms, and it is rarely changed after being printed or made public. Therefore, the readers feel that they are respected, and the possibility of the information being misinterpreted or distorted is minimized. For instance, the power of written communication is demonstrated in the case of a letter sent to a customer or a legal document, indicating the fact that in some situations, oral communication is not preferable.
In conclusion, I am convinced that both speaking and writing are effective methods of communication, and a specific circumstance is the key factor to deciding which outperforms the other.
3. Cách viết dạng discuss both views với yếu tố tuyệt đối
IELTS TUTOR lưu ý:
- Đối với dạng discuss both views and give your opinion chỉ cần nêu rõ mình theo quan điểm nào và ở body viết về quan điểm ủng hộ cần nhấn mạnh ủng hộ quan điểm đó
3.1. Cách viết "totally"
IELTS TUTOR lưu ý:
- Nếu totally agree hoặc totally disagree với quan điểm đề cho chỉ cần nêu rõ mình theo quan điểm totally agree hoặc totally disagree và ở body viết về quan điểm ủng hộ cần nhấn mạnh ủng hộ quan điểm đó
3.2. Cách viết "partly"
IELTS TUTOR xét ví dụ:
Some people think that strict punishments for driving offences are the key to reducing traffic accidents. Others, however, believe that other measures would be more effective in improving road safety. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
2. Cách viết dạng 2 question với yếu tố tuyệt đối
Economic progress is often used to measure a country's success. However, some people believe that other factors are more important. What other factors should also be considered when measuring a country's success? Do you think one factor is more important than others?
