雅思小作文写作技巧及范文一.图表类型饼状图,直方图或柱形图趋势曲线图表格图流程图或过程图程序图二.解题技巧A. 表格图1 横向比较: 介绍横向各个数据的区别,变化和趋势2 纵向比较:介绍横向各个数据的区别,变化和趋势3 无需将每一个数据分别说明,突出强调数据最大值和最小值,对比时要总结出数据对比最悬殊的和最小的说明:考察例举数字的能力和方法。

注意怎样通过举一些有代表性的数据来有效地说明问题。

B. 曲线图1 极点说明: 对图表当中最高的,最低的点要单独进行说明2 趋势说明: 对图表当中曲线的连续变化进行说明,如上升,下降,波动,持平3 交点说明: 对图表当中多根曲线的交点进行对比说明说明:关键是把握好曲线的走向和趋势,学会 general classification, 即在第二段的开头部分对整个曲线进行一个阶段式的总分类,使写作层次清晰。

接下来在分类描述每个阶段的 specific trend, 同时导入数据作为你分类的依据。

注意不要不做任何说明就机械性的导入数据!可以使用一些比较 native 的单词和短语来描述 trend。

In terms of Clothing/Footwear, Italy expectedly spent most with 9% compared with still Sweden seeing the smallest proportion (5.4%). As for Leisure/Education, it was Turkey and Spain that consumedthe most and least with 4.35% and 1.98% respectively.Additionally, we can see immediately that in food/drink/tobacco, after Turkey, Ireland, Spain and Italy came in turn with 28.91%, 18.80% and 16.36%. On the contrary, in Clothing/Footwear, we failed to see big gap from Ireland,Spain and Turkey in middle positions which saw different reductions of 2.57%, 2.49% and2.37% in comparison with Italy, likewise, in Leisure/Education, still small differenceswere found. To be exact, Turkey was followed by Sweden, Italy and Ireland in a slow falling turn with 3.22%, 3.2% and 2.21%.In conclusion, people prefer to spend on those products directly relating to food.

Write a reportfor a university lecturer describing the information shown below.范文:The table shows that the figures for imprisonment in the five countries mentioned indicate no overall pattern of increase of decrease. In fact there is considerable fluctuations from country to country.In Great Britain the numbers in prison have increased steadily from 30000 in 1930 to 80000 in 1980. On the other hand in Australia, and particularly in New Zealand, the numbers fell markedly from 1930 to 1940. Since then they have increased gradually, apart from in 1980 when the numbers in prison in New Zealand fell by about 30000 from the 1970 total. Canada is the only country in which the numbers in prison have decreased over the period 1930-1980, although there have been fluctuations in this trend. The figures for the United States indicate the greatest number of prisoners compared to the other four countries but population size needs to be taken into account in this analysis. The prison population in the United States increased rapidly from 1970 to 1980 and this must be a worrying trend.(169 words)第三类:饼状图The pie charts below show units of electricity production byfuel source in Australia and France in 1980 and 2000.Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the mainfeatures, and make comparisons where relevant.Write at least 150 words.Units of electricity by fuel source in Australia范文:The charts compare the sources of electricity in Australia and France in the years 1980 and 2000. Between these years electricity production almost doubled, rising from 100 unitsto 170 in Australia, and from 90 to 180 units in France.In 1980 Australia used coal as the main electricity source (50 units) and the remainder was produced from natural gas, hydro power (each producing 20 units) and oil (which produced only 10 units). By 2000, coal had become the fuel for more than 75% of electricity produced and only hydro continued to be another significant source supplying approximately 20%.In contrast, France used coal as a source for only 25 units of electricity in 1980, which was matched by natural gas. The remaining 40 units were produced largely from oil and unclear power, with hydro contributing only 5 units. But by 2000 nuclear power, which was not usedat all in Australia, had developed into the main source, producing almost 75% of electricity, at 126 units, while coal and oil together produced only 50 units. Other sources were no longer significant.Overall, it is clear that by 2000 these two countries relied on different principal fuel sources: Australia relied on coal and France on nuclear power. (206 words)第四类:曲线图The graph below shows the proportion of the population aged 65 and over between 1940 and 2040 in three different countries.Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.范文:The graph shows the increase in the ageing population in Japan, Sweden and the USA. It indicates that the percentage of elderly people in all three countries is expected to increase to almost 25% of the respective populations by the year 2040.In 1940 the proportion of people aged 65 or more stood at only 5% in Japan, approximately 7% in Sweden and 9% in the US. However, while the figures for the Western countries grew to about 15% in around 1990, the figure for Japan dipped to only 2.5% for much of this period, before rising to almost 5% again at the present time.In spite of some fluctuation in the expected percentages, the proportion of older people will probably continue to increase in the next two decades in the three countries. A more dramatic rise is predicted between 2030 and 2040 in Japan, by which time it is thought that the proportion of elderly people will be similar in the three countries. (164 words)第五类:地图题The map below is of the town of Garlsdon. A new supermarket (S) is plannedfor the town. The map shows two possible sitesfor the supermarket.Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.范文:The map shows two proposed locations for a new supermarket for the town of Garlsdon. The first potential location (S1) is outside the town itself, and is sited just off the main road to the town of Hindon, lying 12 kms to the north-west. This site is in the countryside and so would be able to accommodate a lot of car parking. This would make it accessible to shoppers from both Hindon and Garlsdon who could travel by car. As it is also close to the railway line linking the two towns to Cransdon (25 km to the south-west), a potentially large number of shoppers would also be able to travel by train.In contrast, the suggested location, S2, is right in the town centre, which would be good for local residents. Theoretically the store could be accessed by road or rail from the surrounding towns, including Bransdon, but as the central area is a no-traffic zone, cars would be unable to park and access would be difficult.Overall, neither site is appropriate for all the towns, but for customers in Cransdon, Hindon and Garlsdon, the out-of-town site (S1) would probably offer more advantages.
