利用网络资源巧写雅思作文

在写作过程中，我们中国考生碰到大的问题是“没想法”，正所谓“巧妇难为无米之炊”，脑海中没有相关的素材，因此文章不知道到底写些什么。

针对这一点，笔者提醒考生朋友们不要忘记了一个重要的资源，那就是因特网，英文叫the Internet. 其实很多话题，西方人早就有所论述，而且很多地方非常深刻，全面，哲学化。其实，在几乎每个域里，西方人的思考比我们中人早了很多年，深刻很多。所以，很多话题，在动笔之前，不妨到因特网上搜索一番，看看有没有相关的资料可供参考。一般来说，你不会失望的。

另外，平常收集的材料不要看过就随它去，而是要把主要内容，登录到电脑上。这样做的好处是，电脑方便归类，和查找之前的内容。并且运用电脑联网，拓宽资料来源，大大提高写作的效率。

下面是bbc.co.uk 上找到的一篇相当有启发性的文章，笔者拿出来和读者们共享。

"The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and *aller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often. We've learned how to make a living, but not a life.

We've added years to life not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbour.

We conquered outer space but not inner space. We've done larger things, but not better things. We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice. We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less. We've learned to rush, but not to wait.

Remember, spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever. Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away."

本文是讨论现代人的生活的一片经典文章。其中后一段的句“ Remember, spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever. ”，语言朴素平实，道出了人类共同的心声！

然而细看这句话，其实很适合一片雅思文章，“ Today people spend less time with their friends and family. Analyse the causes and give related recommendations. ”在讨论完该社会现象的原因和解决方法之后，可以在后一段用上这句话，是多么的贴切，多么的动人！也许，雅思考官看完这句，不禁潸然泪下！那分数还需要商量么：）
