序言
我在中國教授雅思課程已有9年時間，在這9年裡，中國雅思考生人數與日俱增，中國雅思考試市場迅猛擴大。然而，所有的中國雅思考生都必須面對這樣的一個事實：中國考生的雅思成績與其他國家存在著巨大差距。以下兩個排位數據，可以讓我們更加清晰地看到這一點。
2009年中國雅思考生人數突破35萬人次，中國成為參加雅思考試人數排名第一的國家。
同年雅思官方公布了全球雅思考生成績排名，中國學生的雅思成績全球排名倒數第三。
中國雅思考生的弱項在於口語和寫作，而口語部分的誤區在於“參考答案”，即所謂的“模板”。在我看來，依靠“模板”是一種很不明智的做法。中國每年有逾10萬的學生參加雅思考試，可能很多人都在照搬這個“模板”，結果就是千篇一律，令考官厭煩不已，自然分數也就不甚樂觀。中國考生首先需要做好發音、語法、辭彙這些基本功；開始表達之後，要在連貫性和流暢性上下功夫；這些都做好之後，就要讓語言表達趨近地道，趨近本土化。這三個層次，每一項都需要一步一個腳印的學習，每上升一個層次，都需要上一層堅實的基礎。
