听力考情分析
12月16日的考试刚刚结束。注意考情回顾只是大概信息，答案仅供参考，关键是积累背景、用词搭配以及考点。
Part 1
今日P1部分在杭州新航道内刊《新航道雅思听力速递机经》书本P68页。
考察内容：培训班咨询
考察题型：填空题
本篇考察日期、时间等基本考点，用词和语境都比较朴实，保障本篇的正确率有助于确保基础分段。其中序数词first既可以拼写出来，也可以写成1st。房间号注意是数字加字母的形式，对于该类数字叠加其他类型信息混合出现的命题题干要有所认知。比如flightnumber、seat等都有可能出现数字加字母的情况。

本篇相对是本次考试最难的篇目，核心需要做到长句缩句、定位、识别替换以及排除干扰。选项大部分存在多个出现的情况，特别注意题干要求和态度方向。比如27-28题要求负向信息和级。而29-30题则是tutor提出的建议。扣准命题要求，做题事半功倍。

阅读考情分析
进入了2023年的最后一个月，今天是英语四六级考试的日子，也是让雅思考生被阅读又难“哭”了的一天。还记得今年的7月8日，那场考试的阅读难度一直被提起，而今天12月16日的阅读难度似乎再次爆表。今天的passage1开篇就是7个list of headings 让刚翻开试卷的同学就直接开始冒冷汗。面对这样的开篇考验的是考生的心态以及阅读考试时间管理的能力。我们也来回忆对比下7月8日的开篇难度，特殊词匹配4+填空5+判断4，话题：工作和生活的平衡。
passage1 关于城市交通发展
首次出现：2023.12.16
类别：社会
难度：★★★
题型配比：list of headings 7+判断题6
分析：今天的p1开篇据考生回忆有11个的list of headings的题干选项，如果确实如此，那意味着有4个干扰选项，不少考生从页翻开就从心理上就被击溃。类似的题型组合，在以往的真题中，我们大多情况下是在passage2才会遇到。在剑桥真题中相同的开篇出现在剑10test2passasge1的探讨工业革命的原因。虽然题型组合让考生害怕，但其实文章涉及的话题并不难看懂。今天的这篇讲的是城市公共交通的发展，从巴士到地铁的发展等。
参考答案：
1. iv
2. vii
3. i
4. iii
5. x
6. viii
7. ii
判断题
8. NO
9. NOT GIVEN
10. NOT GIVEN
11. YES
12. NG
13. YES
Passage 2： 限制饮食对于延长寿命的讨论
首次出现：2023.12.16
类别：健康
难度：★★★
题型配比：段落信息匹配6+特殊词匹配4+填空题3
分析：今天的passage2是一篇讨论长寿的文章，其中讨论了caloric restriction 可能会延长寿命。其中提到了rhesus monkeys作为研究对象。 在剑6 test3passage3“ the search for the anti-ageing pill”讨论过非常类似的话题，文章中用caloric-restricted monkeys和control monkeys 做了对照实验，考生可以参考这篇文章了解相关话题。
参考答案：
段落信息匹配题
13. B15. G16. E17. C18. A19. D
特殊词匹配：20-23 ACAB
填空题
24. ageing
25. lifespan
26. conflict
Passage 3：语言的起源
曾出现于：
2007.04.21/2010.01.23/2019.05.23/2021.08.17
类别：语言
难度：★★★
题型配比：判断4+单选4+ 选词填空6
分析：今天的passage3 涉及的话题是语言的起源，这是一篇旧题，曾多次出现，今天的题型配比是单选题4+判断题4+选词填空6。 这样的组合模式是我们最熟悉的p3套路，但因为文章话题涉及到语言，相比其他题材内容会相对抽象，在时间本就不充足的情况下，更容易让考生没有办法集中阅读寻找信息。类似话题可参考：C11T4P3 this marvellous invention C9T3P1 attitudes to language
参考答案：
判断题：
27 NO 28 YES 29 NOT GIVEN 30 YES
单选题

写作考情分析
小作文
表格，不同类型家庭比例在1790年到1990年间的变化
/// 今日的小作文考察的是动态图。
可以参考剑桥真题10test2的小作文。动态图只需要考虑总体趋势之间的对比即可。大家可以重点复习一下趋势描写的句型和词汇。
大作文
Some people believe that the best way to become successful in life is to get university education， while others disagree and reckon that nowadays this is no longer true. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
有些人认为上大学是实现成功生活的最好方法，而其他人不这么认为。关于discuss类题目大家一定要注意的是需要两边都讨论，两个body段落分别去解释不同的立场，注意不要去怼。在最后给出自己的立场即可，自己的立场通常可以support one view or balance two views。另外，这一篇大家可以尝试定义successful life 这样有利于大家后面论证的具像化，可以这么写： Body1： 一些人觉得上大学是实现成功生活的最好方法是因为他们把成功生活定义为有一份很好的工作并且他们认为上大学才能实现这一目标。Body 2： 他们也认为成功的生活是工作上的成功但是还有其他途径一样可以实现这个目标 (比如现在很多人通过做自媒体，直播实现了变现，有了份很不错的工作)最后一段给出自己的看法。注意不要单纯写上大学的好处，这个题目需要大家分析上大学和成功生活之间是否存在关系。

分享一道新季度题目：
Describe a piece of good advise that you gave to someone
通常我们给他人好的建议包括：解决问题的方法、健康生活的建议、事业和职业规划、改进人际关系、提供心理支持（providing psychological support）、鼓励追求梦想（encourage the pursuit of dreams）、个人成长和学习建议、财务管理(financial management)、时间管理(time management)、自我照顾和放松等。
而在给建议的过程中我们一定要注意方式，一般来说我们可以采取：尊重和体贴对方、倾听并理解对方的需求、提供实际可行的建议、给予积极的鼓励和支持、保持开放的态度、尊重对方的意见和决定、提供具体的建议和行动计划、以正面和建设性的方式表达建议(presenting suggestions in a positive and constructive manner)、提供相关的背景信息(providing relevant background information)和经验分享等。
