考题回顾分析

　　在2016全年中，表格图考察的次数最多，达到16次，其次为柱状图，有14次。柱状图与表格图都是考察频率较高的两类题型，以往都是柱状图考察的次数多于表格图，而在2016年反之。但是2017年的考试到目前为止，小作文柱状图的考查以及明显多于表格图，但是二者仍是5-8月雅思小作文的主要题型，乃至是整个2017年的重要题型。其次，非数据类图表，流程图和地图也是考试的重点，目前地图的考查频率高于流程图，考生可以重点复习地图，流程图则作为补充。

　　对于大作文我们可以从下面两个角度来分析：(1)从题材角度分析：2016年雅思大作文考试中，社会类考察的次数最多，有10次之多。但是2017年至今教育类题材几乎囊括了整个3月4月，而社会类则次之，然后是媒体类和法律类各一次。所以照这个趋势来看，大作文的考查方向仍是教育，社会，及其他。(2)从题型角度分析：在2016年雅思大作文考试中，观点类考察的次数有18次，讨论类考察的次数有23次，问题解决类有3次，混合类有5次;而在2017年的考试中仍然是观点类占主要地位，其次是问题解决和讨论二者势均力敌。所以考生在复习的时候需要以这三种题型为主，其他混合类为辅。
