二，教育类话题仍为核心考点

　　从话题方面看，以往的高频话题依然是今年的主打，如教育与就业、高科技与发展、环境与污染、犯罪问题等。其中教育类话题就占到了全年所有话题的三分之一。教育类话题一直是雅思学术类（ A 类）议论文的考场重点，但 08 年所考察的教育类话题与 07 年的教育类话题相比稍有不同： 07 上半年反复考到教育与高科技的结合，下半年考的多是政策等与教育的关系，而 08 年更侧重于具体的教学方法和青少年的教育问题。前者如 group study 和 study alone 的选择 (08 年 3 月 30 日 ) 、 rote learning 的利弊（ 08 年 12 月 6 日）、 secondary education （ 08 年 1 月 26 日）或者理论与实践课的取舍和就业的关系（ 08 年 7 月 5 日）等；后者主要有小孩利用电视或 PC 学习的利弊 (08 年 5 月 10 日 ) 、是否要完全服从大人或者老师（ 08 年 6 月 21 日）等。
