七月份的写作题波澜不惊，小作文基本没戏，大作文也是在1和3号球中徘徊，最后一次也有放水的嫌疑，特别的简单，我的学生都有点不好意思了。讲到八月份的写作，首先在Task 1的题型中特别注意一些多图的写作，2～3张图现在已经不稀奇，甚至在剑七Test 4中的四张图也不是新鲜事，图多对那些生手不是什么好事，关键还是要发掘可比点，因为图多了信息就杂，考生容易陷入一种“为比而比”的dilemma，过多的捕捉一些低效信息，就像我在我的小新课堂笔记Version10.0里所讲到的，对于一些有差异的、有相反的情况，应当重点列出，而对于同质性的信息和不相关的信息，则不值一提。这一点在八月份考生应当特别注意，否则的话，单图没有叙述清楚，过多的无效信息只会给你低分。所以我建议大家首先立足于单图，比较的内容占最后的30%就可以了，顺便提一下，流程图等偷袭题型整个八月的几率也几乎没有。

大作文我已经在住宿班上讲过了，2和5号球应当着重练习，由于3号球和1号球千丝万缕，所以3号球是个本月的辅助球。八月的前期可能较多的出现3号球，中旬以后5号的可能性极大，考生应当及时注意每周的考试信息和我的即时点评，keep up with Xiaoxin，才能拿到写作的高分了。
