  一、图形种类及概述法:

  泛指一份数据图表:a data graph/chart/diagram/illustration/table

  饼图:pie chart

  直方图或柱形图:bar chart / histogram

  趋势曲线图:line chart / curve diagram

  表格图:table

  流程图或过程图:flow chart / sequence diagram

  程序图:processing/procedures diagram

  以下是一些较常用的描述用法

  The table/chart diagram/graph shows (that)

  According to the table/chart diagram/graph

  As (is) shown in the table/chart diagram/graph

  As can be seen from the table/chart/diagram/graph/figures,

  figures/statistics shows (that)...

  It can be seen from the figures/statistics

  We can see from the figures/statistics

  It is clear from the figures/statistics

  It is apparent from the figures/statistics

  table/chart/diagram/graph figures (that) ...

  table/chart/diagram/graph shows/describes/illustrates how

  ......

  阅卷考官经常是不会看那些图表的,因此文章必须逻辑清晰,如果描述得能令人在脑海里勾画出那个data chart,这篇task1无疑会达到8分的水平。开篇的第一句话可以是一句高度概括性的introduction(当然开门见山直接描述也是一种写法);这样做不仅使文章更趋于完美,而且可以达到凑字数的目的(但不要照抄题目,除非时间相当紧迫)。接下来另起一段开始进行描述(根据实际情况1-2段),这当中经常要连续使用非限定性定于从句,从而使得描述过程流畅、清晰。最后也可再另起一段进行简短的综述(并非必须)。上述的任何一个步骤都要遵循依据现有data进行客观描述的原则,任何推测性或议论性的内容写得再多、再精彩不仅不会加分,而且还会成为扣分的因素。

  二、data的具体表达法

  data在某一个时间段固定不变:fixed in time

  在一系列的时间段中转变:changes over time

  持续变化的data在不同情况下:

  增加:increase / raise / rise / go up ...

  减少:decrease / grow down / drop / fall ...

  波动:fluctuate / rebound / undulate / wave ...

  稳定:remain stable / stabilize / level off ...

  最常用的两种表达法:

  动词+副词形式(Verb+Adverb form)

  形容词+名词形式(Adjective+Noun form)

   

  1. Verb+Adverb form

  The number of XXX

  +increase/jump/rise/decrease/drop/fall/fluctuate...

  +insignificantly/significantly/slightly/suddenly/rapidly/dramatically/sharply/steeply/steadily/gradually/slowly...

  +from (第一时间) to (第二时间) / between (第一时间) and (第二时间)

  2. Adjective+Noun form

  There was a (very) sudden/rapid/dramatic/significant/sharp/steep/steady/gradual/slow/slight

  +increase/jump/rise/decrease/drop/fall/fluctuation (注意:上述很多词不可用于修饰fluctuation)

  +in the number of XXX from (第一时间) to (第二时间) / between (第一时间) and (第二时间)

  描述稳定的data:

  The number of XXX remained steady/stable from (第一时间) to (第二时间) / between (第一时间) and (第二时间)

  The number of XXX stayed the same from (第一时间) to (第二时间) / between (第一时间) and (第二时间)

  There was little change / hardly any change / no change in the number of XXX from from (第一时间) to (第二时间) / between (第一时间) and (第二时间)

  描述不同状态的data

  Noun form:

  steady drop / sharp rise peak / dramatic fall / sharp drop

  Verbal form:

  (to) bottom out / (to) reach the bottom / (to) increase gradually / (to) reach a plateau / (to) remain steady

  描述the highest point以及the lowest point

  高点极值:

  The monthly profit / The figures / The situation ...

  +peaked in (月份/年) <准确时间点用at XXX> at XXX% / XXX(极点data)

  或者reached a peak / a high point at XXX% / XXX(极点data)

  低点极值:

  XXX bottomed out / reached

  +rock / the bottom / a low point

  或者hit a trough

  此外,在描述过程中还有很多的conjunctional words/sentences,最常用的固定搭配如下:

  并列:as well as(句首/中), also, as well(句尾), either, neither, too, moreover, furthermore, in addition, additionally, besides, what's more, apart from ...

  举例:for example, for instance, to illustrate, as an illustration, in particular, particularly, especially

  转折:however, whereas, nevertheless, nonetheless, though, although, even though, while, yet, on the contrary, contrarily, in contrast, conversely, on the other hand, unlikely, in stead (of), in spite of, despite of ...

  原因与结果

  1. cause-suggestion (几乎不常用)

  since / now that ...; I hope that...

  because of/on account of/owing to/thanks to + (doing) sth, I hope that...

  2. cause-effect (较常用)
