图表分析型模版
图表作文的命题目的并不是简单考查考生描述图表表面内容的水平,而更着重于测试考生分析问题,即对图表深层含义领会挖掘的能力以及阐述能力。
审题时增加了读图的步骤。
文章中要考虑关键数据的引用.即体现趋势或者变化的重要数据,而绝对不能毫无目的地大量照搬堆砌.
两种形式:一种是统计表(table),另外一种是统计图(graph), 如:曲线图(line graph)、柱形图(bar graph)和饼图(pie graph)等。
Table 统计表
Line
chart 曲线图
Bar
chart 柱状图
Pie
chart 饼图
图表作文的体裁以说明文和描写文为主。
写作模式:
第一段:描写数据的主要变化趋势,对数据进行分析比较,总结归纳图表表面所呈现的主要特征。
第二段:分析揭示表象后面的原因。
第三段:下结论。

people’s
view of marriage and family life. 10) On the one hand, divorce is
no longer an embarrassing topic in china. 11) On the other hand,
