To what extent do you agree or disagree? 2 Fashion trends are

2、difficult to follow. Some people think that they primarily exist just to sell clothes so we should not follow them. To what extent do you agree with this opinion? 3 Should old buildings be destroyed and replaced with modern ones? 4 International sporting events make an important contribution to inte

3、rnational peace. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion? 雅思写作（综合）模拟试卷 11答案与解析 一、 WRITING TASK 2 You should spend about 40 minutes on this task. 1 【正确答案】 Some people today are questioning the role that public museums and art galleries play, because they think historical objects and

4、 works can be appreciated through computers. Personally, I firmly believe these places are still highly desirable even in this era of advanced technology. Compared with the virtual world presented by computers, museums and galleries are actually real places, where people are allowed to get a more co

5、mprehensive and direct feeling about the works on display because their vision is not limited to the size of their screen, but is exposed to life-size objects and their surroundings. By contrast, the vicarious experience people might get with computers is merely a general overview which is less like

6、ly to impress or move people. More importantly, public museums and art galleries are institutions that collect and safeguard historical or artistic objects and works, and make artifacts and specimens accessible, which they hold in trust for society. In a way, they are the only source of living histo

7、ry and perhaps an insight to the future world that lies before us. So the significance of them also lies in their role as a national memory bank. With the rise of technology, public museums and art galleries of today are able to provide the masses with interactive education on the spot. For example,

8、 visitors can experience hundreds of exhibits and investigate them further using scientific tools and instruments that are provided to encourage visitors to make observations, look for relationships and draw their own conclusions. Now, we can get a clear perspective of the actual roles that places s

9、uch as public museums and art galleries play. And the computer technology is more like an excellent supplement to them but will never be a substitute. 【知识模块】 写作 2 【正确答案】 Fashion is becoming more and more important in a persons choice of clothing. As a result, some people think fashion trends exist o

10、nly for the selling of clothes. Personally, I believe that fashion is far more than that, though people do not have to follow it. In an age where mass media is not only a source of information, but also dictates a sense of taste and style, people tend to follow what celebrities wear and buy the bran

11、ds that are advertised to them. There are always cases of people who fall prey to the fast-changing trends in clothing ending up with wasted time and money. So it is understandable that some may have concerns about following fashion. On the other hand, however, the function of clothing nowadays is n

12、ot just to keep warm; the way people dress also speaks for their personalities, professions and attitudes etc. Paying some attention to trends in clothing helps people learn to choose the right look that shows their respect for others and reflects their personality traits better, because fashion des

13、igners display individualism in their work to inspire people to be creative in finding or creating their own styles. On a larger scale, fashion is a way to interpret traditions, social values and ways of life during a period of time in a particular place, and fashion trends reflect the changes and i

14、nnovation in that society. For example, during the Middle Ages, women covered most parts of their body in public places because sexual freedom was extremely repressed and people were extremely religious, whereas today in Europe, females are free from any restrictions on clothing. It is safe to say t

15、hat fashion is the outcome of culture and the study of fashion is actually the research into the cultural evolution of human beings. Overall, I think that fashion today mirrors modern society. It is a reflective and creative discipline and it is not defined solely by clothing choices, but also conve

16、yed through the way we carry ourselves, our personalities and our views of the world. 【知识模块】 写作 3 【正确答案】 In the contemporary age, there is constant debate over preserving history versus making progress. In terms of the old buildings, many people assert that they should be better protected while some

17、 others claim that they should be knocked down to make way for new ones. It is widely acknowledged that many old buildings are protected today because they are culturally valuable to a nation. Like a native language, many historical buildings form a cultural identity and keep a unique record of a co

18、untry, so they possess significant value to research into the past and play an important function in the education of future generations. Moreover, old buildings, if utilised and preserved properly, could actually contribute to economic development. For example, Westminster Abbey in London, the Eiff

19、el Tower in Paris and the Forbidden City in Beijing, as icons and landmarks of the city and nation, attract countless tourists every year, which brings millions of dollars in revenue for the government. Nevertheless, we are not advocating equal treatment for all old buildings, and some of them do ne

20、ed to be torn down, partly because of safety concerns, and partly because they need to be replaced to meet the need of social development, such as to raise the utilisation rate of land. Despite this, many more historical buildings deserve our protection and we should not be blind to their worth; oth

21、erwise, we will regret loss in the years to come. In summary, I believe that the protection of old buildings does not stand in the way of progress at all; instead, they play an indispensable role in reflecting history, and creating values in modern life. Governments should think carefully before mak

22、ing a move and deep awareness of conservation of ancient architecture should be highly promoted as well. 【知识模块】 写作 4 【正确答案】 International sporting events have become a unique part in todays world, whether it is the Olympics, the World Cup, or games between club teams from different countries. Genera

23、lly, I think that these competitions have indeed brought people closer worldwide. Today, international sporting occasions are actively participated in by many countries or nationalities around the world and more and more nations have put these events on their agendas. For the host nation, it is a gr

24、eat chance to showcase their country to the world in terms of its traditions, customs and social values etc. As to the athletes and visitors from foreign places, they get the perfect opportunity to communicate with people from a whole different background, regardless of their beliefs, skin colors an

25、d races. People say that sporting events like these might be the only occasions when people are willing to learn to understand and appreciate each other regardless of differences and disputes because of the inborn features of sports, and therefore it is widely thought that they are hugely beneficial

26、 to humanity. However, with the constant parade of doping cases, people start to question the meaning of these events. It is true that some athletes risk their careers, health, and reputations to cheat their way to the top of the games, but it is also important to recognise that there are far more a

27、thletes who are competing in the true spirit of sportsmanship .So although there might be controversy, international sporting events overall bring people together for a good reason and that is why we can see people still cheering for others even when their national teams lose the game. To conclude, I believe that international sporting events play an irreplaceable role in contributing to world peace, for they remind us that we are actually one species, even if we speak another language, look different, or are born in a faraway land. 【知识模块】 写作
