答案：

The map shows the changes and development of Chorleywood village in Great Britain over a period of 126 years from 1868 to 1994.

Chronologically, during the first 15 years from 1868 to 1883, Chorleywood was merely a very small village with two crossing main roads for its all transportation.

From 1883 to 1922, with the expansion to the south, a new living area took shape and almost tripled the original scale. Besides, in 1909, a railway line, parallel with the east-bound main road, was built, linking the east and west, as well as forming Chorleywood Station.

During the next period between 1922 and 1970, Chorleywood extended both eastward and westward and almost doubled the previous size.

The year 1970 saw another big change of Chorleywood--the establishment of a south-bound motorway as the axis, which connected east-west main road with the railway. By 1994, there emerged 5 new resident places and some entertainment including Chorleywood Park and Golf course, all of which scattered along the two sides of the newly-built traffic system.（177）

Two possible sites for a shopping mall in the city of Brandfield.

思路：

1. 注意描述的过程：可为由内至外，由外至内，由左至右，由上至下等。

2. 物体方位的描述应该为东西南北。

3. 注意物体之间表示距离的词汇, eg. near to, access, run through等。

答案：

The map illustrates plans for two possible sites for a shopping mall in the city of Brandfield. It can be seen that the two sites under consideration are in the north and the south east of the town. The first possible site for the shopping mall, S1, is just north of the city centre, above the railway line, which runs from the south east of the city to the north west. If it is built here, it will be next to a large housing estate, thus providing easy access for those living on the estate and in the city centre. It will also be next to the river, which runs through the town.

The site in the south east, S2, is again just by the railway line and fairly close to the city centre, but it is near to an industrial estate rather than housing.

There is a main road that runs through the city and is close to both sites, thus providing good road access to either location. A large golf course and park in the west of the town prevents this area from being available as a site.（190）

A new supermarket (S) is planned for the town. The map shows two possible sites for the supermarket.

思路：

1. 尽量使用被动句和名词模式进行表达，这样能突出客观性;

2. 空间方位词汇必须客观：如东，西，南，北，不能用“上下左右”;

3. 物体的大小关系通常采用较大，较小等相对比较词汇进行描述;

4. 线条物体，如河流，铁路，公路等，需采用动态模式进行描述：如“穿过”，“平行”,“交叉”，“形成”，“分隔”等动作词汇。

答案：

The map shows two potential locations (S1 and S2) for a new supermarket in a town called Garlsdon.

Specifically, S1 is in the countryside to the north west of Garlsdon, off the main road to the town of Hindon which lies only 12 kilometers away. The traffic of this site is comparatively convenient because the countryside can accommodate a lot car parking, which makes it accessible for customers from both Hindon and local housing area travelling by car. Besides, S1 is also near a railway linking industry area, town center and Cransdon with 25 kilometers away to the south-east. This line allows residents living in these 3 places to easily go shopping by train.

In terms of the other suggested location, S2, it would be beneficial for local residents because its site is adjacent to the railway, right in the town center surrounded by housing and industrial areas, and with 16-kilometer distance from Bransdon (south-west outside). However, as the central area is called no-traffic zone, car-based traveling for shopping is unavailable. Therefore, railway might become the only option of transportation for out-of-town shoppers, like the ones in Hindon and Cransdon.（190）
