雅思写作会考察大家对于词汇的熟练应用程度，其中单词这一项，会有受考官欢迎的词，也会有不受考官青睐的词汇。下面小编就为大家整理了一些不太受“青睐”的词汇，看这些词汇雷区，亲们有没有踩过？
1、a lot of/lots of
这对词组一般不要出现在雅思写作中，考官已经看烦了。可以用A considerable number of来代替它们。
例如：There are a lot of books in the library.
There are a considerable number of books in the library.
2、Recently
这个词不好，按照专家的说法就是too imprecise，没有一个具体的时间。可以用 in the last five years…/since…代替。
例如：Recently, many foreigners came to China.
In the last five years, many foreigners came to China.
3、There is a survey……
有考官是这么说的， Has there been? only say this if you actually know of one，也就是说考官知道这些都是你编的，最好不要用了。
例如：There is a survey on this problem.
4、And,because,but
这三个词我们还是经常会用到，是很多人的雅思写作词汇常备。其实最好用in addition, therefore, however等代替。
例如：And another three students come from Shanghai.
In addition, another three students come from Shanghai.
5、No one can deny that…/Undoubtedly
这2个词组太绝对了，用来开头并不合适。其实每个人都能持与你意见相反的态度。
例如：Undoubtedly, everyone knows it is true.
6、In my opinion, I agree/disagree with this
这是多余的表达。When stating your opinion you follow with a fact 相信大家都能看懂，就不翻译了。
例如：In my opinion, we should do this job at once.
7、Nowadays
理由和2差不多, 这个词用在文章里显得太普通了，考官认为it does not mean very much，这就需要我们在雅思写作学习中扩大我们的词汇量啦。
例如：Nowadays, more and more students go abroad to seek better education.
8、Vivid
不能用vivid 来形容world，vivid可以用来说memories或者是dream之类的。
