环球教育（原环球教育）提醒，以下是雅思考试写作部分慎用词汇整理：

　　1. a lot of/lots of

　　这对词组一般不要出现在academic essay中,考官已经看烦了。可以用A considerable number of来代替它们。

　　例如：There are a lot of books in the library.

　　There are a considerable number of books in the library.

　　2. Recently

　　这个词不好，按照专家的说法就是too imprecise,没有一个具体的时间。可以用 in the last fiveyears…/since…代替。

　　例如：Recently, many foreigners came to China.

　　In the last five years, many foreigners came to China.

　　3.There is a survey……

　　专家是这么说的: Has there been? only say this if you actually know of one,也就是说考官知道这些都是你编的，最好不要用了。

　　例如：There is a survey on this problem.

　　4.And, because, but

　　这三个词我们还是经常会用到。其实最好用in addition, therefore, however等代替。

　　例如：And another three students come from Shanghai.

　　In addition, another three students come from Shanghai.

　　5.No one can deny that…/Undoubtedly

　　这2个词组太绝对了，用来开头并不合适。其实每个人都能持与你意见相反的态度。

　　例如：Undoubtedly, everyone knows it is true.

　　6.In my opinion, I agree/disagree with this

　　这是多余的表达。When stating your opinion you follow with a fact 相信大家都能看懂，就不翻译了。

　　例如：In my opinion, we should do this job at once.

　　7.Nowadays

　　理由和2差不多, 这个词用在文章里显得太普通了,专家的原话是it does not mean very much。

　　例如：Nowadays, more and more students go abroad to seek better education.

　　8.不能用vivid 来形容world，vivid可以用来说memories或者是dream之类的。

　　9.It is a well known fact…最好不要用, 有的考官可能会扣分。

　　10.very不能用来形容delicious, lovely, fantastic,wonderful, amazing, gorgeous and huge。

　　11.雅思文章中千万不能用缩写, 例如I’m，在考场上千万别犯懒，平时最好也别写缩写，多多注意，养成良好的习惯。
