Diagnostic evidence: repeated claim
If three sentences repeat the same claim with different words, development has not started.
Chinese writing problem diagnosis
Task 2 development is not making examples longer; it is connecting the chain.
Many body paragraphs have a claim and an example, but miss the reason and consequence between them. The reader cannot see why the example proves the claim.
Repair one paragraph first, not the whole essay immediately.
Common risk: isolated example
A story appears after for example, but it does not return to the topic sentence.
What to revise after checking
Label every sentence in one body paragraph. When two claims appear in a row, turn the second into a reason.
Check four steps in the body paragraph
Claim, reason, example, consequence. Add the missing step first.
- Whether there is a reason
- Whether the example returns to the claim
- Whether the consequence returns to the prompt

Task 2 development
Task 2 想提分，常见的关键是把观点发展成完整论证链。了解薄展开为什么压分，以及下一步该改哪个动作。检查重点：先写 claim、再补为什么成立、再用例子或结果把它撑起来。
Idea development
有 idea 不一定有结果：Task 2 主体段要把观点写成解释、例子和结果。按 claim→reason→example 查断点，再把最空的一句改成可评分论证。
Task 2 examples
Task 2 的例子要和 claim、reason、consequence 连在一起，才能支撑论证。例子出现了，还要说明它怎样支持前一句推理。

雅思大作文思路卡住时，先审题，万能素材往后放。先诊断题目冲突、立场和每个主体段要证明什么。检查重点：是否看懂 task word、是否有明确 position、两个主体段是否分工。
Discuss both views: the other side
Discuss both views 题，不同意的那一方常常只写半句。先替对方想出最合理的理由并写完整，再给你的判断。这里有句型、步骤和一道交通题。
Discuss both views sample
雅思大作文讨论双方范文应分析两个观点、个人立场和评价标准，避免只罗列双方理由。只写双方理由不写自己的评价，会让 personal opinion 很弱。
Education essay
雅思大作文教育类作文要先判断责任主体和教育目标，再选择课程、费用、家长或学生例子。只写 education is important，会让论证停在口号层面，无法回应具体题目。
