Imagine this – there’s five minutes left in the exam and you are only halfway through your second body paragraph! What do you do?!
想象一下：如果考试还剩最后5分钟，而大作文的第三段才写了一半，这时候该怎么办！？
WRITE A CONCLUSION!
写结尾段！
You absolutely HAVE TO write a conclusionto save your Task Achievement score. Without one, you are almost certain toreceive a 5.0 for TA as the examiner will decide that even though you have presented a position, there have been “no conclusions drawn”. And for mosttest-takers, a 5.0 for TA means kissing goodbye to any hopes of a 7.0 overall.
如果是这种情况，千万一定记得要写结尾段来挽回一点TA的分数。因为如果你的文章没有结尾的话（即使你的观点和支撑例子都特别出色），你的TA的分数基本上就是5分，不能再高了。如果TA只有5分的话，对于大部分烤鸭来说，写作上7分是基本无望了。
So, if you realise that you are running outof time in the exam, this is my advice：
如果你遇上了写不完文章的情况，请务必记下以下几点：
1. Quickly finish the sentence you’re writing in the second body paragraph (NEVER leave an unfinished sentence)
快速写完第三段你正在写的句子，千万不要留下任何一个写到一半的句子
2. Leave 3 or 4 lines space (so you can come back later to finish this paragraph if you have time)
空个3，4行（如果最后时间充足的话，还可以回去补上）
3. Go and write your conclusion (rememberto give an opinion if you have been asked for one)
着手写结尾段（如果题目要求给出自己的观点的话，一定记得写上）
4. If you still have some time, go back and complete the second body paragraph (but only start a sentence if you are sure you have time to finish it!)
如果时间还够的话，回去把第三段写完（如果不能再规定时间写完一个完整的句子的话，宁愿不写了）
5. Breathe!!!
深呼吸！！！
Also, if you spend too much time on Task 1 and realise that you probably won’t have time to finish your essay, then it is MUCH BETTER to write a shorter first body paragraph (especially in a Discuss Both Sides essay as this will NOT be your opinion) and a more extended second body paragraph. Examiners expect to read your strongest arguments just before the conclusion and by having a more detailed 3nd paragraph you will be hopefully able to rescue your CC score as well as your mark for TA.
另外，如果你花了太多时间在小作文上，意识到自己可能没有时间完成大作文了，那么最好的方式就是写一个简短的第二段（特别是在Discuss Both Sides的文章中，因为该类题目不需要写自己的观点）+ 一个较长的第三段。因为考官希望在结尾段前看到一个strongest arguments. 所以一个更细节的第三段可能可以挽回你的CC和TA的分数。
Of course, you are going to manage your time properly so this definitely won’t happen to you！
如果你能够合理安排时间的话，这种情况就不会发生了！
* 如何合理安排写的时间呢？ 那就只有平时多积累，练习的时候严格掐着时间练习啦~
