2017年11月25日雅思大作文题目

“ As major cities around the world are growing fast, many problems occur. What problems that young people live in cities are caused by continued growth? What solutions do you suggest?”

本周雅思作文问的是城市扩张给城市里的年轻人带来了哪些问题，如何解决这些问题？

唐老师在雅思真题作文题库中搜索后发现，本题是2014年9月16日和2010年8月14日的原题翻版，再次印证了唐老师的一个基本判断：近期雅思考试作文最容易复现2014年下半年和2015年上半年的原题。请各位烤鸭复习时注意抓重点。

城市扩张，意味着越来越多的年轻人涌入城市，这会带来什么样的问题？其实，稍微想一下，我们就能发现各种可能的问题，比如就业压力，住房压力，交通拥堵，城市安全，子女教育等等。至于解决办法，无非是政府扩大就业机会，重视年轻人再教育问题，甚至限制年轻人进入大城市等等。

总体来说，本周题目的难度并不大，这类问题也是我们平时都经常讨论和思考的，因此，本周作文比拼的可能还是在语言表达方面。

老师笔记

Now it seems that all the big cities around the world are still endlessly expanding. The population of Shanghai, for example, was just 10 million in 1990s, yet today the figure has soared up to 30 million. The cosmopolitan expansion means that more people, young people in particular, are rushing into the big cities and this may cause a host of problems.

现在，世界上所有的大城市似乎还在不断扩大。例如，上海的人口在1990年代只有1000万，但今天这个数字已经飙升到了3000万。大城市的扩张意味着更多的人，特别是年轻人，正涌向大城市，而这可能会引起许多问题。

解析

（1）本段为引入段：用例子简要说明大城市仍然在扩张，这可能带来问题。

（2） expand 扩张

（3） soar up 飙升

（4） cosmopolitan 世界性的(adj.)；大城市（n.）

（5） a host of 许多（=many)

The first problem that faces the young people in big cities is that a good job will become increasingly difficult to come by since the competition in the job market will surely intensify as young people, most of whom are well educated, decide to pursue their dreams in the big cities. It is now not uncommon that a university position may attract more than 100 applicants. Secondly, as these young people settle down in the big cities, they will soon have their own family, which will impose great pressure on the city’s housing. In fact, this is exactly one of the major reasons why housing in the big cities today is so expensive. Then, when their children reach the school age, they will find it hard to get them into school, because the educational resources are very limited. Finally, a large number of young people living under great pressure in the big cities may bring about such social problems as unemployment and crimes.

大城市的年轻人面临的个问题是，一份好工作将变得越来越难以获得，因为随着年轻人（多数都受过良好的教育）决定在大城市里追求自己的梦想，就业市场上的竞争必将加剧。现在，一个大学的职位可能吸引超过100名申请者，这已屡见不鲜。其次，随着这些年轻人在大城市稳定下来，他们很快会有自己的家庭，这将给城市住房带来产生很大的压力。事实上，这正是大城市里住房如此昂贵主要原因之一。而且，当他们的孩子到了上学的年龄，他们会发现很难让他们进入学校，因为教育资源非常有限。最后，大批年轻人生活在大城市里的巨大压力下，可能会带来的失业和犯罪等社会问题。

解析

(1) 本段论述年轻人生活在大城市带来的问题，主要讨论了三个问题：就业问题、住房和子女教育问题、社会问题（没有展开论述）。

(2) face 面对

(3) come by 获得；得到

(4) intensify 加剧

(5) pursue 追求

(6) not uncommon 不罕见

(7) impose...on... 强加......在......身上

(8) educational resources 教育资源

To solve these problems, I would suggest that the government take measures to limit the number of people migrating into the big cities. In fact, cities like New York and Beijing have already set standards for those who want to come in. Meanwhile, it is highly advisable that the government offer practical programs so that the young people living in the big cities can receive further education to make them more competitive in the job market. The most essential thing that the government should do, of course, is develop a strong economy, which is the most effective cure for the diseases in the big cities.

为了解决这些问题，我建议政府采取措施限制迁入大城市的人数。事实上，像纽约和北京这样的城市已经建立了准入标准。同时，政府应提供切实可行的计划，使住在大城市的年轻人能够接受更多的教育，让他们在就业市场更有竞争力。当然，政府应该做的最重要的事情是建立一个强大的经济，这是治疗大城市疾病的最有效办法。

解析

(1) 本段针对前面的问题提出解决方法。

(2) migrate 迁徙

(3) set standards 制定标准

(4) advisable 明智的，适当的

(5) essential 重要的
