雅思寫作真題:Population Ageing推薦范文
【題目要求】
The trend of the proportion of older people is increasing steadily. Is it positive or negative to society?【題目翻譯】
在很多國家，老年人所占的比重正在逐漸上升。你認為這對于社會的好處大于壞處嗎？
【關鍵詞分析】
older people
“老年人”有很多說法，這個詞在文章中肯定會多次出現，因此一定要做好同義替換準備。elderly people, the elderly,pensioners, senior citizens都可以，但要少用old people.
ageing society (Br.E.) / aging society (Am.E.)
老齡化社會，這個詞是必備的社會學術語。這個詞雖然沒有在題目中出現，但是考生一定會在正文中用到這個詞。

【話題分類與題型】
本題是老題，與2006年2月11日的真題完全一致，與2010年3月6日的話題也基本相同。屬于社會類話題的“人口結構與老齡化”分支。題型為議論文中的“利弊分析”。
【話題評價】
社會類話題今年考的頻率異常偏少，上一次考社會類話題是在2011年2月19日（婦女是否應當參軍），因此這次話題完全在預料當中。本話題難度較小，考生應該不會感到無話可說。

【結構與思路】
利弊分析型的文章結構比較簡單，一般只需羅列其好處壞處，結論段提出簡單的解決方法即可。通常認為，老齡化社會的壞處可能要比它帶來的好處更多，因此可以弱寫好處段，重點放在負面影響上。
