5月12日考的是教育类的老题（Some people believe that some unpaid community service should be a compulsory part of high school programs. To what extent do you agree or disagree? ），再之前4月21日考的是分析建议类的新题（Nowadays, customers are facing increasing advertisements with the competition of different companies. To what extent do you think customers are influenced by advertisements? What measures can be taken to protect the customers? ），4月14日考的则是政府决策类的半新题（Some people believe that advertisements should be banned since they serve no useful purpose and can even be damaging. To what extent do you agree or disagree? ），从题型上来说已经走完了“半新题－新题－老题”的一个循环，因此在5月19日的考试中，a new cycle will begin(怎么感觉像我上课讲的那个回收玻璃瓶的流程图？)，不管是哪种题型都有先考的可能，姑且先预测还是半新题好了。

再来看话题类型，再之前的3月31日的考题属于社会现象类的新题(Nowadays, people perform their everyday tasks, such as banking, shopping as well as business transactions, without the need of meeting other people face to face. What are the possible effects of the phenomenon on the individual and the society as a whole? )，到这里为止，我们发现雅思四大类话题（教育类、社会现象类、政府决策类，抽象类）当中已经有三大类话题已经在近期考过，唯一没考过的只剩“抽象类”话题了，什么是“抽象类”话题？最典型的就是去年最后一次考试考的真题了－Some people believe that personal happiness is directly related to economic success, other people argue that happiness depends on completely on other factors. Discuss both viewpoints and give your own opinion. (2006.12.16)

题目考的是“幸福的定义”，即“幸福到底是由经济成功还是其它因素决定的”，这次考试可能会考类似结构的话题，即“有人认为......是由A决定的，也有人认为是由B决定的，请对双方观点进行讨论并给出自己的看法”。这种文章可以写成典型的双边结构，大家可以参考剑5上的考官范文（就是我在课上推荐大家回去精读的那一篇－有人认为小孩将来有没有出息是由基因决定的，有人认为是后天教育决定的，请对双方观点讨论并给出自己的看法。）

希望这次预测也能命中，19日考的同学考完希望到这里来回忆一下考题，拿到分数之后也来报告一下吧!
