    在本書中的第二課中,我們就圖表的寫作進行了詳細的講解。本課的寫作任務又是一個圖表作文。
    1.在寫關于曲線圖,示意圖,表格的文章時,文章的一開頭,文章的第一句話通常是說明圖表主要反映的內容,相當于對于圖表的一個高度概括?,F(xiàn)在我們在這里列出此類作文的常用句型:
    1).The table/chart/ diagram/ graph shows (that) …
    The figure/ statistics shows (that) …
    2).The diagram shows/ describes/ illustrates how…
    3).According to the table/ chart /diagram/ graph/ figures…
    As (is) shown in the table/ chart /diagram/ graph/ figures…
    As can be seen from the table/ chart /diagram/ graph/ figures…
    It can be seen from the table/ chart /diagram/ graph/ figures (that)…
    We can see from the table/ chart /diagram/ graph/ figures (that)…
    4).It is clear/ apparent from the diagram/ figures (that)…
    2.本課的圖表作文更多的涉及到了一些數(shù)據(jù)方面的比較,以及趨勢變化的描寫。接下來,我們列出一些圖表作文中常用到的表示數(shù)據(jù)的句型。
    There were more males than females (55% and 45% respectively).
    男的比女的多(比例分別是55%和45%)
    China and the United States both had 12%
    中國和美國各占12%
    The monthly profit increased by 10% from 10% to 20%
    月利潤從10%增加到20%,增加了10%。

    Chinese employees accounted for 39% of the workers.
    中國的雇員占了總數(shù)的39%。
    Company A’s profit percentage rose steadily, whereas that of Company B fell slightly.
    公司A的利潤穩(wěn)步增長,而B的利潤有所下降。
    3.在表示不太明顯的變化趨勢時,我們還可以用如下的句型。
    The number of children enrollment remained steady/ stable from…to…(between …and…)
    The number of children enrollment stayed the same…
    There was little/hardly/no any change in the number of children enrolled from…to…
    寫作提綱:
    首段:說明該圖表所反映的內容。該圖表通過五項經濟指標說明中國正在消除貧困。
    主體段落分為兩個自然段。
    1.概括說明該圖反映的趨勢,即隨著時間的推移,中國人的生活水平大幅度提高,各項指標都有了很大的變化。
    2.具體針對每一指標,分析從1949年到1995年人們生活質量所發(fā)生的變化。如:嬰兒死亡率下降,壽命延長,兒童入學率提高,成人文盲數(shù)減少,生活在貧困線以下的人數(shù)減少。
    結尾段:通過五項指標的縱向變化,可以得出結論:中國正在消除貧困,人民的生活質量已經得到了根本的提高。
    China’s Reduction of poverty
    The table uses five broad economic indicators to show china’s reduction of poverty from the year 1949 to 1995. The five main indicators are: infant mortality, life expectancy, children school enrollment, adult illiteracy and people below the poverty line.
    According to this table, we can see that in 1949, when the new nation was founded for the first year, Chinese had by far the lowest quality of life in all the five indicators. When it came to the year 1995, the situation changed a lot. China is eliminating its poverty year by year.
    It’s amazing to see that infant mortality fell by about 16% from 20% to 4.2% between the year 1949 and 1995. In 1949, Chinese life expectancy was only 35 years, but 40 years later, 1995 saw a longer life expectancy of 69 years. In those years, when our nation was first established, only 10% of children had the chance to go to school. The percentage had experienced a great change since then. In 1995, the rate of children school enrollment reached 99.7%. Adult illiteracy decreased dramatically by 61% from 1950s to 1995. There were altogether 260 million people who were living below the poverty line in 1978. By 1995, the number had dropped rapidly to 65 million, almost one fourth of the former amount.
    In conclusion, it can be seen from the economic indicators that China, a developing country developed a lot in people’s life quality. It was reducing its poverty.
