很多学员反映，课下写的文章要比在考场上写的好很多，究其原因，除了考试的紧张心态之外，另外一方面大多是构思方面的问题。大作文并不是不会写，而是因为时间紧张而不能充分的构思以及组织文章的结构。所以如何在考试规定的时间内对文章进行合理的构思是各位考生目前最需要突破的部分。那如何让考生在考场上头脑清晰又可以迅速的对文章进行构思呢?雅思议论文的构思通常来自两个角度：个人和社会。
个人角度通常会涉及到个人的身体和心理的健康，个人的动机，梦想，兴趣爱好，职业和学业，家庭背景，个人生活方式以及个人的能力。
社会角度一般包括政府税收，教育，民族文化，经济，能源环境以及社会秩序。
在考生拿到一个作文题目后，无论对这个题目持有什么样的立场，都可以按照以上两个方面来构思。接下来我们可以通过分析两个例题来感受上述方法。
1. Government should be responsible for the tuition fee of university students. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?
题目的意思是政府该不该支付大学生的学费，针对这个题目，无论是同意还是不同意，我们都按个人和社会两个角度来看一下。
同意
个人：For those students who are with great intelligence but from poor families, government surely should be responsible for their tuition fee and provide them opportunities to go to school and then release pressure for their families. 因为此题讨论的是大学生的学费，正如前面所提到的，个人的构思角度包括"个人家庭经济背景"。
社会：As we all know, economy is a master key to a country's development and it is undeniable that students who finish their education are the main force pushing forward social and economic development, for which government should encourage education for the benefits of the whole society. 既然从社会角度出发，就要试着往这方面靠拢，首先想想学生接受教育对社会的益处是什么?上文提到，社会角度包括"经济"，所以政府支持教育必然对推进社会经济发展有好处。
不同意
个人：Paying tuition fee for university students can make them access to education easier, therefore, some students may lose motivation without financial pressure and will not cherish the studying opportunities. As a consequence, it is hard to guarantee the quality of university education. 个人的角度包括"学习动机"，政府给大学生支付学费可能会让他们丧失学习动机，从而影响教学质量。
社会：Due to the limited financial budget, government is likely to suffer a great pressure if spending too much money on education; as a result, our government will not have extra energy to develop in other fields, such as science and technology, as well as the medical advances, which are also with great significance to society.
我们之前也提到，社会的构思角度除了"教育"之外还有其他方面，例如"经济"或者"文化"或者"环境保护"。所以一旦政府在教育上花费过多，其他领域的发展就会受到限制。
2. Machines can do a lot of work for human being, it can bring many benefits. To what extent do you agree or disagree.
同意
个人：More work can be done in a relatively shorter time, which can greatly increase the working efficiency and improve quality of life by reducing the working tense; the benefits of this trend also can ensure safety of employees as some work with great danger can rely on machines
个人角度包括个人的身体健康(人身安全)和生活方式。所以这里的论据 "减轻劳动强度"和 "增强安全程度"正是来源于此。而且Reduce the working tense之后就意味着生活将会更轻松即"改善生活方式"。
