3.表格和图表题型写作目前,表格和图表题型是考研英语写作中较为常见的题型之一,也是难度较大的一种写作题型,故考生应对此类题型加强练习,熟练掌握。
1)表格和图表题型写作要点①考生应仔细研究题目以及提示信息,看准、看清图表中的数字、线条、阴影等部分的变化趋势和走向,然后根据图表所显示的中心信息确定内容层次以及主题句。
②考生应该仔细观察分析图表所给出的大量信息,从中选取最重要,最有代表性,最核心的信息,然后根据全文的主旨去组织运用所获取的关键信息。考生应切忌简单地罗列图表所给出的信息。
③表格和图表题型写作一般采用一般现在时,但如果图表给出了具体时间参照,考生则应对时态进行相应的调整。
④表格和图表题型要求考生使用一些固定句型和表达法,考生应对此融会贯通。
⑤表格和图表题型可以细分为表格,曲线图、柱形图和圆形图。除了上述共同要点,考生还应弄懂这四种图在写作方面的各自特点。
表格形式要求考生对表格中所给出的大量数字进行比较分析,从中找出其变化规律。&.#61548;曲线图形式要求考生认真观察坐标系所显示的数据信息,并且密切注意交汇在坐标横轴和纵轴上的数字及单位。&.#61548;柱形图形式要求考生通过宽度相等的柱形的高度或长度差别来判断事物的动态发展趋势,故考生应密切关注坐标线上的刻度单位及图表旁边的提示说明与文字。&.#61548;圆形图形式旨在要求考生准确理解并阐述一个被分割成大小不等切片的圆形图所传达的信息。考生应清楚掌握部分与整体,部分与部分之间的相互关系,这种关系通常是以百分比的数字形式给出的。&.#61548;⑥列出各段的主题句。考生可以根据所给提纲或已知信息列出每段的主题句,为全文的展开铺平道路。
⑦严格围绕主题句展开段落。
⑧检查与修改。表格与图表写作的检查与修改应着重检查文章中所列举的信息是否与图表所显示的信息一致。
2)表格和图表题型的核心句型
3)表格和图表题型写作试题实例①写作题目Directions:A. Study the following graphs carefully and write an essay in about 200 words. B. Your essay must be written neatly on ANSWER SHEETⅡ。
C. Your essay should cover these three points:1. effect of the country s growing human population on its wildlife 2. possible reason for the effect 3. your suggestion for the wildlife protection
②参考范文As is shown by the two graphs, during the period of time from 1800 to 1900, with the explosive growth of the U.S. population, the number of species no longer existing shot up, amounting to 70 in 1990. It is apparent that the population explosion resulted in the sharp decline in the wildlife of the country. What brought about this phenomenon?
There are, I do think, two possible reasons for the fact. To begin with, the ever-increasing population needs more land to grow crops and more space to live in. Consequently, there is less and less niche in the U.S. for wildlife. Moreover, a number of newly built factories keep discharging harmful gases and liquids, which seriously pollute the environment. This has disturbed the ecological balance, contributing to the extinction of some wildlife. In my view, three strong measures should be taken to solve the problem. In the first place, the birth rate in the U.S. must be put under control because the rapidly growing population leads to serious environmental crisis. Secondly, the U.S. government is supposed to create as many nature reserves as possibleswheresall the native species of wild animals can be kept from being hunted and all the native species of plants can grow vigorously. Last and not least, it is urgent for the authorities to set up a foundation to reward those who do much to protect wildlife. (233 words)
