一般來說，雅思詞彙的準確表達可以通過兩個方面達到，一是在用詞的難度上拔高，二是在近義詞的多種表達上提升。值得一提的是，雅思寫作詞彙不要過分堆積華麗的辭藻，會給雅思考官留下華而不實的感覺。
1、使用同義詞替換
使用同義詞的好處在於首先可以向考官展示考生雅思詞彙量的豐富，其次也可以使文章富有變化。因此，同義詞的運用是衡量雅思考生英語水平的一個很有力的標準，考官認同你的同時，自然也會給你高分。
2、使用同根詞替換
英語裡面有很多同根詞，通過單詞的變換來吸引閱卷者眼球並獲得高分是一個很好的辦法。一些單詞通過新增字首或者字尾的方式可以衍生出很多新的詞彙。而使用這些詞彙可以避免重複原文當中的詞條，也可以向閱卷者展示你變化詞彙的技巧。
比如雅思寫作詞彙中我們經常會用到“知道”這個概念，我們可以用know這個詞以及它的其他形式和它們的同義詞來表示“知道”這個意思。
3、使用短語替換
雅思寫作詞彙中同樣可以擁有豐富的短語，使用它們，可以準確傳達原文中的資訊。在一些特殊情況下，短語也可以作為增加字數的方法。
4、使用綜合方法替換
經過了上述幾種方法的討論，我們可以進行綜合的運用，切勿只拘泥於一種方法。比如我們要表達利益和好處這個意思時，我們一般可以使用benefit這個詞，我們也可以使用其他不同的形式來表達利益和好處這個意思。
用同義詞對於原句進行替換後，再把原句的結構進行適當的變換，最終呈現在閱卷者面前的句子和原來就截然不同，但是意思基本一致的。又比如：因特網對我們的日常生活帶來很大的影響。這句話我們可以寫出不同的搭配。
以上的四類雅思寫作詞彙變換的方法的一些總結，在雅思寫作詞彙中，要想自己的文章更吸引人，光變換單詞是不夠的，我們還要把單詞和句子的結構變換相結合，從而使自己的文章更豐富多彩。
下面是一些雅思考試必備詞彙，希望能幫助到大家!

Putting criminals into prisons is not an effective way to deal with them. Instead, education and job training should be offered. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
How to handle criminals is a problem that all countries and societies face. Traditionally, the approach has been to punish them by placing them in prisons to pay for what they have done. Some, however, advocate for trying to make them better with training and education and it seems they may have a good point.
First of all, consider all the money that we have to spend to lock people up in jail. It doesn’t seem like a good use of public money if the people don’t actually get any better. Because most criminals eventually are let out of prison, our focus should be on making them better citizens.
In fact, the reason why many people end up in jail in the first place is because they didn’t have a good education or happy family. So if they can learn job skills they perhaps can find work and feel they can contribute in a positive way. If they do this, they won’t need crime. Surly everyone deserves a second chance.
Of course this does not mean that we should be too lenient on criminals. Those who commit crime should still be punished, but during their punishment they should also be treated. If we make an investment in them and show compassion, most will be able to make a new start.
To summarize, we must make more of an effort to go to the root of the problem. We need to treat criminals as patients and give them the medicine they need: education and training. By giving people the skills for a second chance we can make our society safer and healthier.

Harvey點評：
寫作線索：首段，贊同題目觀點;第二段，罪犯在監獄裡什麼都不做是花著納稅人的錢的;第三段，沒有接受教育和不幸的家庭是原因，要教育，要給他們機會;第四段;當然要懲罰，但懲罰和治療並用。末段總結。
好文章。末段第二句的比喻給本文增色不少，：We need to treat criminals as patients and give them the medicine they need: education and training.十分貼切。
