序

　　《一次就考到雅思寫作6.5+》甫經出版，有在國外求學或在語言中心準備雅思的讀者紛來沓至，提及這本書補足了課堂中英文寫作教學等無法協助到學習者或考生的部分，很值得捧讀再三。書籍中的範文包含了幾項特點：「符合學術寫作的要求和字數」、「文句通順」、「邏輯表達清晰」、「論點具說服力」、「懂得運用適切的承轉詞」、「使用高階但並非冷澀、不常見的字彙」和「長難句等各式句型的使用」，這些都是許多外文系學生或雅思備考考生經過數堂文法和英文寫作課後，在邁向雅思寫作高分的準備過程中需要達到的部分，也是雅思考試中對寫作的核心要求。

　　因考慮到讀者學習習慣等，編輯部與英國籍老師將範文中一些細節部分進行了修正和潤飾並將範文錄音，期許《一次就考到雅思寫作6.5+ (附英式發音MP3)》提供給學習者以及滿足仰賴聽力學習的考生，最後祝所有考生都能獲取寫作佳績﹗
