1、雅思写作（综合）模拟试卷 20及答案与解析 一、 WRITING TASK 1 You should spend about 20 minutes on this task. 1 Nowadays a large amount of advertising is aimed at children. Parents object to such pressure on children. But some advertisers claim that there is useful information in these advertisements. Discuss both views

2、and give your opinion. 2 Some countries have introduced a law to limit working hours for employees. Why is this kind of law introduced? Do you think it is a positive or negative development? 3 Some people argue that younger people are not suitable for important positions in the government while othe

3、rs think it is a good idea. Discuss both views and give your own opinion. 4 In spite of the many advances women have made in education and employment, they continue to be at a disadvantage when it comes to pay and promotion. In your view, what should be done to promote equality of opportunity for me

4、n and women in the workplace? 雅思写作（综合）模拟试卷 20答案与解析 一、 WRITING TASK 1 You should spend about 20 minutes on this task. 1 【正确答案】 People today are too often bombarded with various advertisements on television, in newspapers or on the running buses or taxis, a large proportion of which are children-targe

5、ted. Some people may point out that too much exposure to advertising imposes too much stress on children as well as their parents. The advertisers often have an deep insight into childrens psychology and behaviors which are taken advantage of in their advertising to make their products, whether a to

6、y, a snack or some other goods, more alluring and interesting for these young minds. As a result, the innocent young often fall victims to the predator and ask their parents to buy whatever is advertised, regardless of the price and the function. However, advertisers themselves can never agree with

7、those arguments, claiming the advertisements are full of useful information for children and their parents. This is true to a certain extent. In some cases, parents are more likely to choose the right quality products according to what a commercial teaches, especially after careful comparison. Never

8、theless, in some others, quite the reverse is true. That is to say the information in a commercial advertisement is far from useful, but rather harmful because almost all kinds of advertising will definitely exaggerate their merits but conceal their demerits. Overall, I tend to believe that advertis

9、ing targeted at children should be strictly examined and controlled by the related authorities because children are the disadvantaged group and prone to any tricks and deceits. And of course parents should be discreet when choosing a product from advertisements. 【知识模块】 写作 2 【正确答案】 I think that intro

10、ducing a law to limit the working hours of employees is a good idea and shall outline my reasons below. One reason for introducing such a law is that some employers might try to make employees work very long hours. This would reduce the amount of free time that employees have to spend relaxing with

11、family and friends. If workers have children, I think it is beneficial for society in general if they spend time together parents teaching their children to be useful members of society and sharing in free time activities. All workers can benefit from having some time to spend with friends, on hobbi

12、es or relaxing in whatever way they like. A second reason for introducing a limit on the number of hours that employees can work is that it can create employment. If employers want their workers to work longer hours, this is an indication that they could employ more people and have them work less ti

13、me each. Having more people employed is clearly beneficial compared to having these people not work and possibly require some kind of government financial support. In conclusion, I agree with the idea of a law to limit the amount of time that people work, since it provides benefits for individuals a

14、nd for society as a whole. 【知识模块】 写作 3 【正确答案】 In this essay, I shall explain why I think that the age of people in important government positions is irrelevant when compared to other factors such as ability. Some people argue that younger people do not have enough experience of life to be in such im

15、portant positions. I do not think that this is a very strong argument. After all, there are examples of young people who have been successful and old people that have not succeeded in life. Therefore the amount of experience does not only depend on age. There is an argument that people who have been

16、 in government for a long time and have therefore gained experience of it become more limited in their thinking. Instead of developing inventive ideas and policies, they seem to often become less inventive. Perhaps giving some important positions to younger people could avoid this situation. Governm

17、ent is supposed to represent the people. This claim is made by all types of governments, from democracies to dictatorships. Therefore, it would be reasonable to expect those in government to be a representation of the people in terms of age, gender and race. However, this does mean that the most tal

18、ented might not be chosen. To conclude, I suggest that important government positions be given to those who deserve them on the basis of their abilities, not solely on the basis of age. Naturally, there will be many older people in these positions, since they will have had more chance to develop car

19、eers, but talented younger people should not be excluded. 【知识模块】 写作 4 【正确答案】 In many parts of the world, there is now greater equality between working men and women. Nevertheless, women still tend to earn less and enjoy fewer promotions than men. Some would argue that this situation will correct its

20、elf over time. However, in my view, there is much that can be done to address the problem constructively. One possible approach would be for governments to force employers to promote the same numbers of men and women and to pay them the same salaries. This would certainly tackle the problem quickly.

21、 However, measures like this would probably be seen as excessive and difficult to enforce. A more feasible approach would be for governments themselves to take the lead by ensuring that their male and female employees earn the same for equivalent work and that women are promoted fairly. This would h

22、elp to establish gender equality as a norm and set a good example for companies in the private sector. Countries, such as Sweden and Iceland, which have done this are often regarded by others as socially-advanced models. To further encourage equality, companies could be required to publish figures o

23、n the rank and average earnings of men and women in their workforce. Evidence of large inequalities would create a bad impression. In order to avoid bad publicity, companies might consider it worthwhile to pay fairer wages and promote more women to management positions. It is true that the problem of gender inequality in the workplace will probably not be solved quickly. However, that is not a reason to avoid taking action. Governments can encourage change by showing the way forward and taking advantage of the need for companies to present themselves as fair and reasonable. 【知识模块】 写作
