四川外国语大学外语培训中心雅思老师提出：雅思写作的大作文题目会给出一个看法、问题或议题，考生需就此进行论述，写一篇议论文。根据不同的情况，考生可能需要针对问题提出解决方法、论述和证明一个看法、对比和对照论据或看法、或者评价和反驳一个论点或观点。本文将为你带来一篇例文，大家可以先写写看，再对照文章哟~

 

    You should spend about 40 minutes on this task.

 

    Write about the following topic:

 

    If you could change one important thing about your hometown, what would you change?Use reasons and specific examples to support your answer.Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

 

    Write at least 250 words.

 

    model answer:

 

    If I could change one thing about my hometown, I think it would be the fact that there’s no sense of community here. People don’t feel connected, they don’t look out for each other, and they don’t get to know their neighbors.

 

    People come and go a lot here. They change jobs frequently and move on. This means that they don’t put down roots in the community. They don’t join community organizations and they’re not willing to get involved in trying to improve the quality of life. If someone has a petition to put in a new street light, she has a very hard time getting a lot of people to sign. They don’t feel it has anything to do with them. They don’t get involved in improving the schools because they don’t think the quality of education is important to their lives. They don’t see the connection between themselves and the rest of their community.

 

    People don’t try to support others around them. They don’t keep a friendly eye on their children, or check in on older folks if they don’t see them for a few days. They’re not aware when people around them may be going through a hard time. For example, they may not know if a neighbor loses a loved one. There’s not a lot of community support for individuals.

 

    Neighbors don’t get to know each other. Again, this is because people come and go within a few years. So when neighbors go on vacation, no one is keeping an eye on their house. No one is making sure nothing suspicious is going on there, like lights in the middle of the night. When neighbors’ children are cutting across someone’s lawn on their bikes, there’s no friendly way of casually mentioning the problem. People immediately act as if it’s a major property disagreement.

 

    My hometown is a nice place to live in many ways, but it would be much nice if we had that sense of community.

 

    以上就是全部内容，多多练习加以总结，作文会稳步提高的。希望本文对你有所帮助。
