环球教育韩诗凡老师着实辛苦了一番，给大家带来12月8日的雅思写作考试预测。

　　大作文tips

　　1）在提出一个论点后，一定要记得用条理清晰、符合常识、内容详实的论据来支撑论点。

　　2）句与句之间如果有逻辑关系，则一定要加逻辑连词，这样行文会更流畅。

　　3）使用名词做主语、变主动语态为被动语态（eg. Companies produce more thanbefore可改写成Productivity of companies is promoted），是提高文章正式性的好方法哦~

　　工作类话题思路参考

　　1.关于工作满意度和工作稳定性：有人认为满意度比稳定性（stability）重要，他们相信对工作内容的兴趣和热情是决定了工作成就的最主要因素，只有在做自己喜欢的事情时，人们才会全身心地投入（delicate），从而产出更大的成果。

　　但另一些人认为，稳定性才是选择工作的首要条件，如医生、教师、律师、工程师这样的职业是可以做一辈子的（life-long career），能够提供给人稳定（secured）的收入来源，而稳定的经济收入比什么都重要。

　　2.关于频繁更换工作：频繁换工作对雇员来讲，其好处在于能够通过不断的尝试，认清（identify）自己最适合做的工作是什么，找到自己的兴趣所在，从而获得越来越高的工作满意度。但其坏处在于，没有长期的经验积累（experience accumulation），专业程度不高，个人的职业竞争力（competitiveness）会很弱。

　　对雇主来讲，雇员流动性大的好处在于可以不考虑晋升（promotion）和加薪（pay raise）问题，节约用人成本（labor cost），但坏处在于，团队不稳定影响人际关系（interpersonalrelationship），员工专业化水平低影响公司发展。
