Lexical Resource

IELTS Writing rewards accurate words over difficult ones.

Vocabulary problems are often about imprecise meaning, unnatural collocation, weak register, or memorised language.

Short answer: secure meaning and collocation first, then expand the vocabulary you can control.

Misused advanced words

Unfamiliar words are used to sound advanced, but the meaning shifts.

Unnatural collocation

The word is familiar, but it sits awkwardly with the words around it.

Template-like language

Memorised chunks appear, and they fit the specific prompt poorly.

Why accuracy matters more than difficulty

Lexical Resource is about range, accuracy, and appropriacy. A simple accurate word usually supports the argument better than an unstable advanced word.

The revision target is accurate collocation

The shorter route is to store usable collocations by topic and function: cause, effect, concession, trend, and comparison.

Precise meaning
Natural collocation
Appropriate register

What to revise next

If the essay contains advanced but awkward wording, do a collocation repair: keep the idea, replace the expression with a more stable and topic-fit choice.

Grammar accuracy

IELTS Writing 的语法评分看 range 和 accuracy。复杂句如果错误频繁，会比稳定的简单句更影响读者理解。长句里反复出现主谓、从句或标点问题。

Linking mistakes

IELTS 写作的连贯来自信息按逻辑推进。机械地堆 cohesive devices，反而会暴露段落关系的混乱。检查重点：句间关系、段内中心、段间推进。

Band 6.5 plateau

IELTS Writing 卡在 6.0-6.5 时，先找出最拖分的一个问题：理由展开、段落衔接、用词还是语法，下一篇就围着它改。语法、用词、衔接都被点到了，下一篇要先挑一个来改。

IELTS Writing 从 Band 6/6.5 到 7，先用一篇真实作文诊断立场、展开、衔接或语法清晰度的主卡分点，再重写一段。带着原文完成检查，再用重写验证是否真的改善。
