一、考试概述

1. Describe a building you like
2. Describe a public place that you think needs improvements
3. Describe a city or country that you would like to live or work
4. Describe an important river or lake in your country
5. Describe a leisure facility you would like to have in your hometown
二、题目分析
Describe a building you like
You should say:
Where it is
What it is used for
What it looks like
And explain why you like it
参考范文：
As for a building I like, I would like to talk about a temple in my hometown.
The temple dates back to the 15th century. Today, a lot of people still go there to pray for good luck and good health. Interestingly, although it’s a holy place, it’s located on the one of busiest streets in my hometown.
But from the moment you enter the temple, you start to feel calm and peaceful. Like most historic buildings in the area, the temple faces south, and the front gate is guarded by two stone lions. As you enter the front hall, you will see four wood sculptures, which are called ‘the Four Heavenly Kings’.
The Great Hall is separated from the front hall with a courtyard where you can see lots of trees and plants. The roof of the Great Hall is supported by tall, thick columns. Inside it, you can see a Buddha statue and statues of his students.
The temple is well-preserved and in good condition. It attracts thousands of tourists each year. And it provides cultural activities as well, including traditional art classes. So besides being a place of worship, it’s also educational and fun.

Task2
题目类别：政府、艺术
提问方式：观点类
考试题目：
People believe arts like painting and music does not directly improve the quality of life, and therefore they think government’s money should be spent on other things. To what extend do you agree or disagree?
雅思大作文范文：
Throughout the history, arts have always been placed in an inferior place compared with other more seemingly more important facets such as education, economy and health care. As intangible arts might be, I still believe that it should be more highly valued by governments because it can make the masses enjoy a better life.
Arts, especially the visual ones, can make cities and towns more visually attractive and spectacular. This is because artists know the tips that can please our brains, and they can employ a variety of shapes, pattern, colors and designs to arouse our aesthetic desire. Moderns cities are a place to demonstrate the function of art because it is ubiquitous to see a host of well-designed advertising pictures displayed along the streets and in the shopping malls; some cities decorate landmark buildings with sophisticated external glass walls. Living in this environment, citizens are likely to be proud of the modernization of the place where they live and their sense of happiness will also be improved.
Other forms of art, such as music, opera, and dancing, can also never be underestimated due to their effect on people’s emotions. Enjoying a piece of light music or immersing themselves in an opera, people’s mind can be soothed; an engaging dance is also likely to help release some pressures because dancers focus on motions and paces, casting the worries aside for the time being. In some developed countries, music and dancing even used as aiding therapy for those who are suffering mental fatigue, considerable stress or even mental disorder.
In conclude, it is quite justifiable for governments to allocate fund to arts even though some opponents who are short sighted and norrow-mined will complain the uselessness of arts. Governments should be visionary, believing their attention and assistance in arts will never be in vain.
