【Task 2】
Many people in developing countries feel happier than before while many people in developed countries do not feel as happy as used to be. Why? What lesson can you learn from this?
很多考生觉得这道题是新题，很难写。
广州雅思培训机构小编认为如果考生娴熟地利用解题技巧进行推导，就不会觉得这是新题，也不会觉得这道题很难写。
陈先忠老师解题过程：
题目分析：在常人看来，发达国家的人总体上本应该感到更幸福！很多发达国家的人之所以觉得幸福感不如从前是因为他们对幸福的定义发生了变化（请参看剑桥雅思4 Test 2, Writing Task 2）.
Question 1 推理过程：
a) 发达国家与发展中国家人民对幸福的定义不一样
b) 具体表现为：很多发达国家的人民对生活有更多期待（收入、工作满意度、生活水平，等）
c) 后果：发达国家很多人越来越贪婪，但是现实情况是大部分人都不能如愿，结果幸福指数大大降低
d) 原因：贪婪和自私是发达国家引导的现代生活方式的根基
e) 相反，发展中国家的人很多老百姓知足常乐，尤其是当这些国家社会变化加快，人民生活生活水平明显改善的时候。
Question 2 教训:
从两种不同人生观可以清晰地看出人的贪念是无止尽的。发达国家尽管创造了更高的物质文明，但是人民精神文明的缺失给社会发展带来了很大的麻烦。发展中国家的主流生活方式和人生观对发达国家的管理者和老百姓有很大的启发。如果发达国家倡导一种更简单的生活模式，情况可能会大为改观。
结论：实际上，发达国家老百姓的幸福指数并没有下降，只是老百姓的期待值太高。当然了，发达国家政府应该加大力度解决一些尖锐的社会问题，而百姓要知足常乐。
环球雅思培训机构小编特别提醒：推理过程不能出现不符合事实的字眼，否则推理得出的结论就是错误的。另外，考生需要特别注意推理的技巧：支持（Backing）程度控制(qualifier)、反证法(rebuttal).

Test 2

Topic request
Happiness is considered very important in life.
Why is it difficult to define?
What factors are important in achieving happiness?
【Model answer】
Happiness is very difficult to define, because it means so many different things to different people. While some people link happiness to wealth and material success, others think it lies in emotions and loving personal relationships. Yet others think that spiritual paths, rather than either the material world or relationships with people, are the only way to true happiness.
Because people interpret happiness for themselves in so many different ways, it is difficult to give any definition that is true for everyone. However, if there are different kinds of happiness for different individuals then the first step in achieving it would be to have a degree of self-knowledge. A person needs to know who he or she is before being able to know what it is that makes him or her happy.
Of course, factors such as loving relationships, good health, the skills to earn a living and a peaceful environment all contribute to our happiness, too. But this does not mean that people without these conditions cannot be happy.
Overall, I think an ability to keep clear perspectives in life is a more essential factor in achieving happiness. By that I mean an ability to have a clear sense of what is important in our lives (the welfare of our families, the quality of our relationships, making other people happy, ect.) and what is not (a problem at work, getting annoyed about trivial things, etc.).
Like self-awareness, this is also very difficult to achieve, but I think these are the two factors that may be the most important for achieving happiness.
