值得注意的是较往年相比，核心话题没有发生大的变化，仍旧以社会（发展）类，教育类以及政府类为主。同时，二级话题——科技，环境以及犯罪类也保持了相对稳定的考查量。而去年考核相对较多的旅游类今年鲜有，另外动物类话题也未作涉及。
建议各位考生在备考阶段以准备核心话题素材为主，并需要密切关注老题新装的可能性。例如今年的社会（发展）类题目中对“换工作”这个话题的考核足有4次之多。虽然每次问法不尽相同，但是回答思路上基本一致。考生可从换工作后能够获得的好处思考，例如工作经验的累积，全新的工作环境所带来的新鲜感和动力等。如遇到此话题的双边题目，需具备批判式思维，例如从需要时间适应公司文化氛围，工资待遇晋升机会的减少，以及频繁地跳槽体现对雇主的忠诚度低下从而导致自己在职场中不受欢迎等等来进行考虑。
通过从题型和话题两方面进行的2014年雅思大作文题目盘点分析，不难发现只要同学们选择对的方向去准备，选择正确的方法来学习，就能战胜雅思，从而获得开启出国留学大门的钥匙。希望各位考生以前车为鉴，努力用心备考，在新的一年的考试中取得满意的成绩。
