在每个主体段落中都使用"firstly, secondly, finally"结构可以吗?

　　It would be nicer to vary the way you organise or link your ideas in each main paragraph. However, the ideas and vocabulary are more important than the linking words, so using "firstly, secondly, finally" twice isn't a big problem.

　　答：在每个主体段中使用不同的连结词会让你的作文看起来更多样化。但是，ideas和词汇远比连结词重要，所以，使用两次"firstly, secondly, finally"结构并不是一个太大的问题。

　　2. I explained both sides for an "agree or disagree" question. Is that ok?

　　"agree or disagree"类型的大作文中，我解释了双方的观点，这样可以吗?

　　Yes, but I hope you made it clear in your introduction that you 'partly agree'. Have a look through my writing lessons until you find something about 'strong opinions' and 'balanced opinions'.

　　答：可以，但是我希望你能在你的开头段中说明你’partly agree’，部分同意。看过我写作课的同学都知道，在表达“强烈的意见”和“两边儿都行”时要在开头段中使用不同的表达，如果“两边儿都行”,就在开头段中写“部分同意”。

　　3. Can I write everything in capital letters in the writing test?

　　我能在雅思考试中全部使用大写字母吗?

　　When I trained as an examiner, we were told that students should not write in capitals in the writing test. Somebody told me that this rule has changed, but personally I still think it's better not to write essays in capital letters.

　　答：当我是考官的时候，我们被告知学生不可以在写作考试中全部使用大写。但是现在政策有改，有人告诉我说可以全部大写了。但我个人认为最好还是不要全部大写。
