7月18日考完之后，这几天陆续有同学在群里讨论Task 2。
很多人的第一反应都是：
“这题还可以啊，挺熟的。”
确实，这道题的背景离大家很近——现代人的压力来源。工作消息不断、每天通勤、事情做不完，这些东西基本每个人都有经历。
但是这两天我看了一批同学交上来的作文，发现一个比较有意思的现象：
不少人的自我感觉不错，觉得内容写满了，例子也有，但最后TR（Task Response）和CC（Coherence and Cohesion）只有5.5-6分左右。
问题其实不是“不会写”，而是很多人的思路在写的时候慢慢偏掉了。
今天就借这道题，聊一下这类原因+解决方案题最容易出现的问题。
原题
Everyday activities cause stress for many people in the modern world. What are the causes of this problem, and what can be done to address the problem?
在现代世界中，日常活动给许多人带来了压力。造成这一问题的原因是什么？可以采取什么措施解决？
题目链接与在线练习：/questions/411?type=Task+2&source_type=Actual+Test
这是一道比较典型的 cause and solution 题。
关键词其实有两个：
- everyday activities（日常活动）
- stress（压力）
很多失分点，就是没有真正围绕这两个关键词展开。
很多人踩的第一个坑：把“日常压力”写成了“人生压力”
这是我看到最多的问题。
题目说的是 everyday activities，也就是每天重复发生的事情。
比如：
- 不断弹出的工作消息
- 长时间通勤
- 家务和琐事太多
- 社交媒体带来的焦虑
这些都属于 daily activities 带来的压力。
但是有些同学写着写着就变成：
- 失业压力
- 买不起房
- 重大疾病
- 家庭经济困难
这些当然也是压力来源，但问题是，它们不是“日常活动”造成的。
比如：
Many people feel stressed because they cannot afford a house.
这个观点本身没有错，但是房价问题属于社会经济压力，不太符合题目限定。
还有一些同学会花一大段解释：
Stress can increase cortisol levels and cause heart disease, insomnia and depression.
这个也不是完全不能写，但它回答的是“压力有什么影响”，而不是“为什么日常活动会造成压力”。
雅思Task 2不是看你知道多少知识，而是看你有没有精准回答问题。
第二个坑：原因和解决方案完全没有连接
这个问题在 cause and solution 题里面非常常见。
很多同学第二段写：
People receive too many messages from social media and workplaces, which makes them feel stressed.
然后第三段：
The government should provide more psychological counselling services.
这里逻辑其实断了。
别人说“每天被工作消息打扰”，你告诉他“去接受心理咨询”，不能说完全没用，但没有解决根本原因。
更好的对应应该是：
原因：
Digital devices make people unable to separate work and personal life.
解决：
Companies can set rules that employees do not need to respond to messages after working hours.
这样前后才是一条线。
简单来说：
你提出什么问题，就要解决什么问题。
不要前面讲手机，后面突然开始讲政府宣传；前面讲通勤，后面突然让大家保持积极心态。
第三个坑：语言没有错误，但太普通
很多同学的问题不是语法错，而是整篇文章读下来像流水账。
比如：
People use phones too much, so they feel stressed.
没有错。
但是如果整篇都是这种句子，分数很难往7分走。
可以稍微升级：
The excessive use of digital devices has blurred the boundary between work and personal life, leaving many people in a constant state of mental pressure.
当然，也不是说每句话都要写得很复杂。
很多同学的问题是为了追求高级词，把文章写得很奇怪。
重点不是“难词”，而是表达准确。
比如：
“天天看手机”
比起：
use phones too much
可以写：
constant exposure to digital devices
“占用了休息时间”
可以写：
reduce the time available for rest and leisure activities
这种表达其实更自然。
参考范文（约300词）
下面这篇是 LumiWrite 教研团队根据这次题目整理的一篇参考，重点看逻辑，不用刻意背里面的词。
In today's fast-paced society, many people find that ordinary daily activities have become unexpected sources of stress. Although modern life has brought greater convenience, the increasing demands of technology, work and social expectations have made it difficult for individuals to maintain a healthy balance. This essay will discuss the main causes of this issue and suggest several possible solutions.
One major cause of stress in everyday life is the widespread use of digital technology. Smartphones and online communication tools allow people to stay connected all the time, but they also make it difficult to separate work from personal life. For example, many employees feel pressure to reply to work messages outside office hours, which prevents them from fully relaxing. Another important factor is the fast pace of urban living. Long commuting times, crowded public transport and busy schedules reduce the time people can spend on rest and leisure activities. In addition, social media has intensified pressure by encouraging people to constantly compare their lives with others.
Several measures can be taken to address these problems. At an individual level, people can develop healthier habits, such as limiting screen time and taking regular breaks from digital devices. Employers can also help by introducing flexible working arrangements and creating clear rules about communication after working hours. Meanwhile, governments and urban planners should improve public transport systems and develop communities where workplaces, homes and services are closer together. Schools can also provide basic mental health education to help young people develop better coping skills.
In conclusion, the stress caused by everyday activities is mainly related to technology, urban lifestyles and social pressure. While individuals need to make changes to their own habits, companies and governments also have an important role to play. A combined effort from different parts of society can help people achieve a more balanced and less stressful lifestyle.
这篇范文写数字设备的问题，后面接digital detox和工作边界；写城市通勤，后面接城市规划和弹性工作——每一条原因都能在解决方案里找到对应。这种一一对应的关系，比堆多少高级表达都重要，也是我们批改报告里会重点标出来的一项。
