当我读懂这道写作题的时候，感觉万箭穿心……

2018-10-19

就在前几天，相信很多去考试的小伙伴都会有这样一个“过山车”式的心情。仅仅是因为，在考场当中遇到了这么一道写作题目。原题如下：

In many countries women are allowed to take maternity leave from their jobs during the first month after the birth of their baby. Do the advantages outweigh the disadvantages? 20181013

读题的时候，相信很多小伙伴被这个maternity leave给惊扰到。肯定有考生不认识这个词。不过还好，只要气定神闲地接着读题，其实还是很容易地就可以猜到其含义。猜到了“产假”这个意思之后，相信各位的心情肯定是大好的。但是，仔细一想相关论点，恐怕又凉了半截。

前不久我还写过一篇推文，里面提到了其实在整个内地考区，绝大部分的考生都是在26周岁以下。陆哲老师完全相信，产假这个概念距离你们还有些遥远。毕竟，26岁以下的单身汪们还是不少的。但是，这就是雅思。哪怕你还是一个高中生宝宝，此时此刻都无处可逃。

在这里陆哲老师给各位小伙伴两个不成熟的小建议：

1、为了避免审题时遇到生词，各位应该翻看近5年的题库。其实很多考题都是老题重现，所以熟悉老题中的生词对于审题来说意义非凡。顺便说下，这道题在2016年就和大家见过面。

2、即使题目中讨论的现象或者概念超过了考生的认知范围，各位也不必过于担心。相关论点只要符合逻辑即可，并无论点与低分论点之分。

如下是一个简单的例文，供各位参考。

Taking a baby break, in many countries of the world, is one of basic rights women deserve, which is empowered by laws. This, naturally, arouses the comparison between its merits and demerits over the public. From my perspective, this issue is definitely advantageous to the advances of our society.

开头段，笔者点明了文章的主题。并且随后直接表达了自己的立场。

On the one hand, there is no gainsaying that the maternity leave is conducive to both the mother’s and baby’s health. Primarily, as a common sense, the process of giving birth is of countless pain and even a certain level of risk. Females after that tough period certainly deserve a convalescence, during which their physical and mental health can be recovered effectively. Besides, undoubtedly it is the mother who is able to offer the best care to her baby, and thus the mother is supposed to stay with the new-born baby as long as possible. Before the baby was born, he or she was familiar with the voice of the mother, and that is why the voice of the mother can pacify the baby and make the baby feel safe.

主一段，笔者重点讨论这个现象的优点。从两个层面来展开讨论。一，这对母亲们很好，有利于她们恢复身体健康。二，对于新生儿来说，也可以得到更好的照顾和安全感。

On the other hand, some objectors to related laws stress that female job seekers and employees of childbearing age might be influenced negatively because of the right of taking the maternity leave. The reason is that the leave can, to a great extent, enhance the labor cost of the company and reduce the productivity of female employees. Nevertheless, authorities are capable of making some other laws to avoid the sexual prejudice in the job market. For instance, rejecting female job hunters of reproductive age or firing them only because of their age can be outlawed. Hence, with the relevant legal protection, females in the workplace can be treated equally as males.

主二段，笔者先是阐述了这个现象可能带来的缺点，并且展开。随后，“怼”它。这件事明显的缺点就是很可能使得女性求职者或者从业者在就业市场中被歧视。简单说，就是没人愿意雇佣育龄女性。这个问题其实很好解决，完全可以通过相关法律手段来保证这些女性的权利。各位有时间可以查看我们国家的《劳动法》，里面很多条款都是保护育龄女性，孕期女性和哺乳期女性员工的。

In conclusion, according to the above analysis, this essay can readily come to the conclusion that advantages of this issue obviously outweigh its disadvantages.

由于前文的论证逻辑非常清晰，所以在结尾段笔者直接点明了主题。其他无须再言。

注意：本文提供的论证逻辑只是N多可能中的一种，绝不唯一。

现在是不是文思泉涌了呢?
