2018年8月25日雅思大作文题目：Some people say that children should go to school as young as possible, while others believe that children should not start primary school until they are six or seven-years-old. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
解析&审题
本周考题要求考生讨论孩子们的上学年龄，这是一个非常古老的题目，同时也是我们在平时生活中经常讨论的话题，因此，唐老师相信这个题目对多数烤鸭来说应该不会陌生。
那么，孩子到底该什么时候去接受正规教育呢?是越小越好，还是到6、7岁后再上?很明显，这个问题是见仁见智的。事实上，的确有很多国家，孩子4、5岁就可以上小学，而在其他一些国家，孩子需要到6、7岁后才能上小学。每个国家当然是根据自己国家的情况来制定政策的。
总体说来，孩子越早上学似乎有利于孩子的学习，同时还可以减轻父母的负担，让他们尽快重返工作岗位;但孩子上学过早也有问题，比如过早让孩子担负学习压力，可能让他们在将来失去学习的兴趣，同时，如果孩子们太小不理解教育的意义，他们未来变成问题学生的几率也会更大。
老师笔记
01
There is much debate about when the transition between play-based preschool and the start of formal schooling should begin. For different purposes, the formal school starting age varies from country to country, ranging from four to seven.
关于什么时候开始从以玩耍为基础的学前教育向正规教育转变，有很多争论。出于不同目的，不同国家的正式入学年龄不同，从4岁到7岁均有。
解析
(1) 开头对题目观点进行了重新表述。
(2) debate 争论;讨论
(3) transition 过渡
(4) for different purposes 出于不同目的
(5) vary 与......不同
(6) range from... to... 在......幅度内变化
02
Some people believe that “earlier is better”. On the one hand, children who receive formal instructions at four to five years old will hold advantages over those who start school at six to seven, since formal education can supply a good foundation for children, promoting them to form their own ideas, communicate and socialize with other students, and develop their knowledge. On the other hand, it may also make it possible for parents to return to the workforce earlier and reduce childcare costs.
有些人认为“越早越好”。一方面，在四至五岁时接受正式教育的儿童将比六至七岁开始上学的儿童占优势，因为正规教育可以为儿童提供良好的基础，促进他们形成自己的思想，与其他学生进行交流和社交，并发展他们的知识。另一方面，它还可能使父母提前返回劳动力市场，从而降低儿童保育成本。
解析
(1) 本段讨论孩子们越早上学的好处，主要包括孩子的成长，以及对父母的好处。
(2) instructions 指导;教育
(3) supply something for somebody (=provide)为某人提供某物
(4) socialize with... 与......交往
03
Other people, however, argue that there will be negative consequences if children are forced to receive formal instruction at too early an age. This argument calls for an extension of informal, play-based preschool for the start of formal schooling to be delayed until the age of six to seven. If children are brought into school very young and then they are asked to behave in ways they cannot, they may become problem children later. Abundant evidence has shown that many of improper behaviors stem fromstarting school too early. In the interests of children’s academic achievements and emotional well-being, these evidence should be taken seriously.
然而，另一些人则认为，如果儿童过早地被迫接受正规教育，会产生负面影响。这个论点呼吁延长非正式的、以玩耍为主的学前阶段，以将正式入学的时间推迟到六岁到七岁。如果孩子很小就被带到学校，然后被要求以他们不能做到的方式做事，他们以后可能会变成有问题的孩子。大量的证据表明，许多不适合的行为都源于过早上学。为孩子的学业成绩和情感利益着想，这些证据值得认真对待。
解析
(1) 本段讨论孩子应该在6-7岁以后上学的理由。
(2) consequence 后果
(3) extension 延长;延伸
(4) problem children 问题孩子
(5) abundant 足够的;大量的
(6) stem from... 源于......
(7) take...seriously 认真对待......
04
In conclusion, although some people think that children should start formal schooling at four to five, others believe that it should be delayed until six to seven. The decision depends on each country’s primary-school educational policy. In many parts of the world, this issue continues to be debatableabout which policy is more likely to pay off.
总之，虽然有些人认为儿童应在4至5岁开始正规教育，但另一些人认为应该推迟到6至7岁。这个决定取决于每个国家的小学教育政策。在世界的许多地方，至于哪个政策更可能带来回报，仍有争议。
解析
(1) 总结本文观点：两个观点均有理由，但到底采用哪个观点，则取决于不同国家的政策。
(2) depend on 取决于......
(3) debatable 有待争议的
(4) pay off 取得回报，成功
