如何写好图表作文
• • • • 1.对比分析，寻找数据的变化规律 举例（1991.6）Changes in People’s Diet Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition of no less than 100 words on Changes in People’s Diet. Study the following table carefully and your composition must be based on the information given in the table. Write three paragraphs to:
• 又如： milk 和 meat的变化，都说明了 同一观点：人们的经济收入增加了，生 活水平提高了，能够消费得起价格较高 的肉奶食品。这样，描述milk的变化后， 就不必要重复meat的变化。简单一 句：”The same is the case with meat.”即可。或者直接计算出增加值或 减少值，如：”The amount of grain in people’s diet has decreased by 4%. However, the amount of milk has increased 3% and that of meat has increased 4%.

谋篇方法
• 1.先描写数据变化 • 2.再分析变化背后的原因 • 3.最后是的个人看法，预测未来的发展 趋势或提出解决问题的方法。
• 1.State the changes in people’s diet(饮食）in the past five years; • 2. given possible reasons for changes. • 3.draw your own conclusions. • 4. you should quote as few figures as possible.
• Obviously, computers are becoming more and more popular. There are several reasons for this. First, computers facilitate us in more aspects of life. Also, the fast development of the Internet enlarges our demands for using computers. We can easily contact with friends in remote places through the Internet. Besides, the prices of computers are getting lower and lower, which enables more students to purchase them.

4.使用主题句 通常第一段的topic sentence 说明发 生了某种变化。例如： Great changes have been taking place in (e.g. people’s diet, student use of computers…) from 1995 to 2000. In recent years, the time students using computers has increased greatly.
• What has caused the great changes in people’s diet? The main reason, I think, lies in the improvement in people’s income level. With the development of our society, people are becoming richer and richer, which enables them to purchase more nutritious food such as meat and milk. In the meantime, grain consumption in people’s diet consequently dropped.
• 通过横向、纵向对比分析，不难发现 grain的消费量逐年下降，5年间减少了 4%，而milk的消费却逐年增加，meat的 消费也逐年增加。纵向看，milk 和meat 变化趋势相同，占总消费量的比例在增 大，而grain 的比例变化正相反，从而归 纳出一个总的变化规律：grain 的消费量 在减少，而milk 和meat的消费量在增加。
• 3.强调数据间的关系，突出变化 • 发现数据的变化规律，引用了典型数据， 还须进一步强调突出这种变化，使论证 更为有力。以“student Use of Computers”为例，有学生写到：But in 2000, students spend nearly 20 hours per week on the computer. This number was ten times that of 1990 and five times that of 1995. 利用倍数 强调突出，给评卷老师留下深刻印象。
