小作文:- 圖表作文
1. Summarize 寫作目的、最重要的信息
2. Make comparisons 歸類、
控制好下面的內(nèi)容:
1、 開篇:明確指出文章的寫作目的
a) 隨著時間,變化
b) 大小的比較
2、 結(jié)尾:結(jié)合寫作目的,明確的給出圖表中最為重要的信息
a) 看變化:哪些對象上升,哪些對象下降,哪些不變
b) 看比較:哪個對象是“最好王者”
3、 細節(jié)分類討論,給出一些支持結(jié)論的證據(jù)或過程
分段模式:2+X (2代表開篇和結(jié)尾;X代表分類的結(jié)果和圖形的數(shù)量)
開篇:
1) 重點要突出“寫作目的”change or compare “C&C”
2) 名詞照抄,動詞和抽象名詞替換,時間和地點不變,但要突出“指代”
下面是一篇以描述比較為主的文章范例:選材
e.g. Cambridge 8 – Test 1
The chart compares the proportions of overgrazing, over-cultivation, deforestation and others. The table compares the percentages of overgrazing, over-cultivation and deforestation in North America, Europe and Oceania during 1990 – 2000. 文章的開篇與提示句不同之處在于:你是在看過圖表后產(chǎn)生的具體的描述。
結(jié)尾:
Overall, it is clear that overgrazing, over-cultivation and deforestation are main causes of global land degradation, and that the primary causes of land degradation in the three areas were different : North America (Over-cultivation), Europe (Deforestation), and Oceania (Overgrazing), and Europe had the most seriously affected land of the three countries.

第一段:第一句:最大值, while第二句:接近的值歸類. However, 其余的不重要的值
The most primary cause of land degradation in the world is over-grazing, accounting for 35%, while other two main causes are over-cultivation and deforestation, occupying 28% and 30% respectively. The reminder only takes up 7%.
23% of land in Europe was degraded, which was the most serious, and 9.8% of land degradation was caused by deforestation, as well as 7.7% (over-cultivation) and 5.5% (overgrazing). 13% of land in Oceania was spoiled, and 11.3% of land spoiled was because of over-grazing, while 5% of land was degraded in North America, and 3.3% of the land degradation was subject to over-cultivation.

下文是一篇以描述趨勢變化為主的范文:素材來自Cambridge 8 Test 2
開篇和結(jié)尾 – 重點強調(diào)寫作的目的是:變化;結(jié)論重點回應(yīng)這些對象是如何變化的。將占比例最大的對象名稱,作為次要內(nèi)容,寫在開頭段是為了保持文章的前后一致。

Overall, it is clear that the school spent more on teachers’ salaries, furniture and equipment, and insurance, but less on other workers ‘salaries and resources.
