「要求」
    上表展示了1830年到1970年農(nóng)業(yè)勞動(dòng)力和非農(nóng)業(yè)勞動(dòng)力比例的變化。請(qǐng)根據(jù)此柱狀圖寫一篇短文。要點(diǎn)如下:
    兩者的變化呈反比,即隨著非農(nóng)業(yè)勞動(dòng)力的增加,農(nóng)業(yè)勞動(dòng)力在減少,并且這種增加和減少的趨勢(shì),在1830年到1970年間是一直持續(xù)的。
    1870年農(nóng)業(yè)勞動(dòng)力和非農(nóng)業(yè)業(yè)勞動(dòng)力的比例基本持平。1970年大約95%的勞動(dòng)力是非農(nóng)業(yè)人口。1890年農(nóng)業(yè)勞動(dòng)力和非農(nóng)業(yè)勞動(dòng)力的比例為7∶3,而到了1910年,兩者的比例正好掉了個(gè),為3∶7.1830年,70%的勞動(dòng)力為相對(duì)較少的人口提供糧食,但到了1970年,5%的勞動(dòng)力則要為相對(duì)大量的人口提供糧食。

    Persons in the Labor Force
    This table shows the changing proportion of farm and non-farm workers in the labor force from 1830 to 1970. The change is inverse; that is ,as the size of the non -farm labor force increases, the sizes of the farm and non-farm occupation are consistent through the years.
    The proportion of farm and non-farm workers was about equal in 1870. About 95 percent of the labor force were non-farmers in 1970. The proportion of 70 percent of farmers and 30 percent non-farmers in 1830 was exactly reversed in 1910. In 1830, 70 percent of the labor force was required to feed a relatively small population, whereas in 1970, only 5 percent of the labor force was required to feed a large population.
    「評(píng)語」
    該文分為兩段,首段敘述了農(nóng)業(yè)勞動(dòng)力和非農(nóng)業(yè)勞動(dòng)力總的變化趨勢(shì);而第二段對(duì)表中的幾個(gè)特殊點(diǎn)進(jìn)行了說明。從一般到具體,結(jié)構(gòu)簡(jiǎn)單清晰。首段的“inverse”和二段的“reverse”用得恰當(dāng)精練,為文章省了不少筆墨?!癴arm workers, non-farm workers”,“farm labor force, non-farmlabor force ”“farm occupation, nor-farm occupation”及“farmers, non-farmers”幾組同義詞的運(yùn)用,避免了重復(fù),使文章呈現(xiàn)出變化。
