【雅思高分经验】雅思8.5分是怎样炼成的
READING
我在阅读上花的时间比较少，因为自己阅读的一些基本功在考GMAT时就已经训练出来了，因此阅读速度很快，基本上我都是先把文章读一遍再看题。不过阅读速度慢的烤鸭就不建议采取这种方法，其实关于先读文章还是先看文章的争论一直都有，我觉得如果你的阅读速度快，理解力强，心态稳，就应该先读文章再看题，否则可以充分利用雅思阅读的“顺序原则”边做题边读文章，这样心理上感觉时间压力小一点。不过 这里特别强调一点：对于第一道题是段落信息的题目强烈建议先读文章再看题，而且还不能读得太粗略。
WRITING
因为复习之前看到论坛好多烤鸭都败在了写作上，让我决定重点突破作文这一块。一共用了两本资料，一本是慎小嶷的十天突破，一本是顾家北的《雅思写作套路剖析与范例大全》，这两本书发挥不同的作用。我用十天来提升自己的用词和行文，用顾家北的那本书来拓展自己的思维。
具体来说，十天的价值就在于它地道的语言，它让我摆脱了四六级甚至GMAT写作以来自己贫乏单调的写作风格，估计大部分烤鸭都有这本书吧，对于想突破7的烤鸭，重点要研究DAY3中的词汇总结，DAY5中的逻辑连接词(重视!)以及DAY6中的高分句型，不必细看模版的那几节。
小作文我花的时间很少了，考前两周开始看，用了3天弄清题型和词汇，然后开始写，小作文剑桥系列后面的考官推荐作文很重要，因为小作文的写法很死，模仿很重要。建议大家就写剑桥系列上的小作文。 最后强调一定要把大小作文和在一起模考几次，否则你会觉得考场上时间不够用。

Ok, well I have to admit that it was quite a while ago since I took part in any sports event, because I'm not really a very sporty person, but I suppose the one that sticks in my memory the most was a sports meeting between my high school and a few others around the area.
And as for where the event was held, well seeing as I think our school had the only proper running track in the city, it was held there, and the event I was competing in was the fifteen hundred metres, basically because no one else in my class wanted to do it, you know, they said it was too far for them, so I ended up volunteering for it.
So anyway, regarding what happened during the competition, well I seem to remember at the start that most of the other competitors sprinted away, which surprised me a little, because it was quite a long distance that we had to run. So it seemed a little strange and even a bit scary seeing them run so fast – maybe it was because of the adrenaline or something. But anyway, I tried to pace myself, and after a while, the other runners started getting slower, so I was able to overtake them, and then on the last lap, I somehow managed to overtake the leader and win the race!
So if I think back to how I felt at that moment, well as you can imagine, I was over the moon, you know, super happy, because I simply had no idea I would win, and what was really great was the fact that loads of my friends and classmates were standing around the track, cheering me on. So yeah, it was a really awesome feeling.

Ok then, well I’m actually quite lucky in the fact that I’ve been invited to quite a number of special meals, and the one I’ve decided to talk to you about was a farewell dinner of a good friend of mine, because he was about to go off to Canada for a few years to start university there, so he invited a few of his close friends for a farewell dinner before heading off.
And one of the reasons I’ve chosen to talk about this meal instead of some of the others I’ve been to is simply that it’s still quite fresh in my memory. You know, it was only about a couple of weeks ago when it happened.And as for where we had the meal, well I can’t remember the exact name of the place, but it was quite a posh restaurant somewhere in the centre of the city, and judging from how nice it looked when I walked in, it seemed to be a pretty expensive place to dine. So I was kind of relieved that it wouldn’t be me footing the bill!And we also had our own separate room, which was nice, and probably just as well, seeing as we made quite a bit of noise during the meal, what with all the laughing and stuff going on.
Anyway regarding what we ate, well I couldn’t tell you every single dish that we had, because there was just so much, you know, the whole table was literally covered with food. I mean, there was crab, chicken, duck,what else, um,……oh yeah, shrimps, and, uh…..oh and a whole load of different vegetables. So by the end of it, I was absolutely stuffed. You know, we all ate masses, because the food was so good, and it would have been a bit of a pity to see it go to waste!
But anyway, finally then, with regard to how I felt about the meal, well to put it simply, I really enjoyed it. Because as well as the food, which was fantastic, I really enjoyed everyone’s company. You know, it was great being together with so many good friends, many of which I hadn’t seen in quite a while.
So yeah, all in all, it was a really special evening, and I’m extremely grateful to have been invited, and also very grateful to my friend for his generosity, as the bill must have come to quite a lot, I’m sure!

Recently I came across an interesting article on the internet about the benefits of drinkingwarm water with lemon in the morning. The website name is bodyandsoul.com.au.
You would normally think that lemon water is just one kind of drink that helps keep your body hydrated, however, it brings you many other benefits that you can‟t imagine. – The article says that if you build up a habit of kicking off your day with a glass of warm waterwith the juice of half a lemon, you will do your body and mind a great favor.
Firstly, lemon juice is a great source of Vitamin C, thus it helps boost your immune system in fighting off colds and flu. Moreover, lemons are great for combating skin ageing because they are rich in antioxidant properties. Lemon also helps clean our urinary tract and detoxify our livers. The list of benefits doesn‟t end there. The high level of potassium in lemons can helpbrain and nerve functioning and control blood pressure. Lemon water can also ward offstress and depression, which have been linked to low levels of potassium. As a result, the article suggests if you continue drinking warm water with lemon first thing in the morningfor at least 21 consecutive days, you will notice the difference in your skin and general healthimmediately.

If I ever get the chance to learn a new skill, I would like to learn karate which is a form of martial art. I had a great fascination and attraction to learn it but never had the chance actually to learn it. This is important for keeping a sound body and to remain fit. It is also a great weapon of self-defence in time of adversity and sudden attack by rogue people.
The greatest benefit this karate offers is a discipline and self-control. Besides the physical exercise, patience and hard work karate requires a great deal of mental power, calmness and a type of discipline which are necessary for a modest life.
If I get the chance, I would get admitted in a good karate learning training centre that would offer a really good training so that I can efficiently learn it. I will need to devote a great deal of regular time and will have to have the determination to learn the necessary skill.
I would like to get involve in some kind of activity which is helpful to keep the body and soul sound. Physical exercise is one way to do that but karate would be more helpful as it would require steady patience and determination as well. I have found some of my friends and relatives found it very helpful in their lives and I was inspired by their discussion regarding the usefulness of this martial art.
