大学英语四六级、考研写作备考-图表作文
写作第八课图表作文图表作文是锻炼学生进行科学写作的一种形式，是四六级、研究生考试的主要题型之一，是一种控制性和应用性很强的出题方式。
图表就是利用统计数字、图像传达信息。
一般把各种数字资料，按照一定的顺序，通过表格形式表现出来的叫表—table；利用点、线、图等把信息资料表现出来的叫图—graph/chart. 常用的图形有柱形图—bar graph/chart or histogram、曲线图—line or curve graph/chart 、圆/饼形图—circle or pie graph/chart、方框图—block diagram、流程图或过程图—flow chart / sequence diagram、树形图—tree diagram等。
1.审题在信息量比较大、参考数据比较复杂的情况下，要仔细阅读任何一项提示性材料，在图表中提取以下几方面的准确信息：①浏览整个图表、要求、给出的题目、开头等，抓住主要内容。
②阅读图表的标题、比例系数、插图说明。
③寻找明显的特征，如曲线高点、低点，显著的趋势，变化模式等。
④曲线图与柱形图表示的是两个或两个以上事物间的关系。
⑤圆形图表示的是代表整体的圆（100%）与代表各部分的扇形之间的关系以及各扇形之间的关系。
扇形越大，百分比越高。
通过仔细分析，弄清了几项提示信息之间的内在关系后，推导出图表反映出的深层含义，进而从中推断出文章主题，确定采取哪一种描述方法，然后写出提纲或至少在头脑中对全文有个框架。
2.写法图表式作文一般以三段式来组织文章。
大体有两种类型：①先描写后议论。
在第一段把图表描述概况完毕，并综述图表反映出的主题、趋势。
以下两段针对主题议论、观点总结，与一般议论文无异。
②夹叙夹议。
第一段开门见山，简单明确地概括图表反映的总体内容，综述图表的核心含义。
第二段对数字进行仔细分析，阐述图表中的要点及其相互关系。
要列出几组典型的相关数据来说明或论证第一段提出的主题，归纳出图表所体现出来的增减规律或总体趋势。

As is shown in the chart/table, the percentage/proportion/number of A has increased/decreased significantly in recent years. In 20XX, A accounted for XX%, while in 20XX, the figure rose to XX%. Meanwhile, the percentage/proportion/number of B has witnessed a similar trend, with XX% in 20XX and XX% in 20XX. In addition, the figure for C also experienced a dramatic change, from XX% in 20XX to XX% in 20XX.There are several possible reasons for these changes. Firstly, it is widely believed that the rapid development of economy has greatly contributed to the increase/decrease of A. In addition, the improvement of people's living standard also plays a significant role in the change of A. Moreover, the change in government policy has directly influenced the trend of A.From my perspective, the change in A not only reflects the development of society, but also brings about some problems. On the one hand, the increase/decrease of A may lead to some negative effects on the environment. On the other hand, the change in A may also exert some adverse influences on people's daily life.In conclusion, the change in A is a reflection of the development of society, and we should take some effective measures to solve the problems caused by it.二、图画作文。

英语四级图表作文写作技巧
英语四级图表作文写作技巧图表作文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。
这类作文可综合提供题目、数据、图像、提纲，形式多样，但实际上只涉及5个方面：描述图表、指明寓意、分析原因、联系实际、给出建议，而每次考试只是从这5个方面的内容中选出3个结合在一起。
从写作类型来看，基本上属于说明文。
要求考生围绕题目将有关信息转化为文字形式，考生应该具有一定数据分析和材料归纳的能力，同时会运用一定的写作方法。
图表型作文同时也是大学英语四六级考试中常考的一个题型。
今天店铺要与大家分享的是：英语四级考试图表作文的写作技巧。
具体内容如下，欢迎参考阅读：对于图表型作文，考生可能没有太多实战经验，也不了解一些图表作文的常用词汇与句型，这些问题四六级专家老师都已经为大家考虑到了，下面老师为大家整理的图表作文写作技巧和常用句型及专业名词，讲解十分详细清晰，希望对考生的复习能有所帮助。
技巧一、直观描述图表内容由于图表作文不像提纲作文那样有写作提示和内容要求，所以写图表作文的第一步就是要考生描述图表最直观的内容。
针对不同的图表有不同的描述方式，比如：泛指一份数据图表一般用a data graph/chart/diagram/illustration/table、饼图用pie chart、直方图或柱形图用bar chart / histogram、趋势曲线图用line chart / curve diagram、表格图用table、流程图或过程图用flow chart / sequence diagram、程序图用processing/procedures diagram。
而常用的描述图表内容的句式类型很多，考生可以重点记忆一些常用的但是又不失新颖的句式，例如：As can be seen from the table/chart/diagram/graph/figures，table/chart/diagram/graph figures (that) …It is apparent from the figures/statistics、According to the table/chart diagram/graph等等。

图表作文写作方法
开头写法
1. 对比分析,寻找数据的变化规律 图表作文通常要论述某个论点,因此,所提供的数据资料一 般都是有规律的.但这些数据是一些零散的信息,需要我们总结 和归纳.关键就是对比数据之间的关系,包括横向和纵向的比较 :从横向看,同一类(如事物A)数据随时间变化是升还是降,升降 的幅度多大;从纵向看,不同类别(如事物A、B、C)的变化是相 似还是相反,从中寻找规律. 以91.6 CET-4: Changes in People's Diet in China 为例( 表1).
2023年英语四级图表作文的类型及参考范文
您目前旳位置: 首页 > 英语四级 > 英语四级作文 > 英语四级作文综合辅导 > 正文英语四级图表作文旳类型及参照范文图表作文也是四(六)级考试中常见, 并且被认为是一种较难旳作文形式。
图表作文就是把非文字信息(一般为多种图表表达旳数字信息等)转换成文字信息旳一种作文。
它规定我们用文字来描述非文字性旳图表或对图表显示旳关系作解释阐明。
下面我们先来看一看图表作文旳类型。
第一节图表作文旳类型图表作文可分为两大类: 表作文和图作文。
表作文表格(Table)可以使大量数据系统化, 便于阅读、比较。
表格常由标题(Title)、表头(Boxhead)(表格旳第一行)、侧目(Stub)(表格左边旳第一列)和主体(Body)部分(表格旳其他部分)等部分构成。
如下表:用表格体现旳信息详细精确, 并且表格中旳各项均按一定规律排列。
阅读表格时要注意找出表格中各个项目旳互相关系, 表格中各个项目旳变化规律。
例如, 上面旳表格中旳数字阐明, 和1978年相比, 1983年大学入学旳人数在增长, 而小学旳入学人数在减少。
弄清晰这些变化规律也就读懂了表格旳内容。
图作文图作文又可分为三种: 圆形图作文、曲线图作文和条状图作文。
(1) 圆形图作文圆形图(Pie chart)也称为饼状图或圆面分割图。
圆形图由于比较形象和直观, 各部分空间大小差异轻易辨别, 因此常用来表达总量和各分量之间旳比例关系。
整个圆表达总量, 楔形块表达分量。
有时圆形图尚有数值表, 两者结合可把各分量表达得更精确、清晰。
例如:Thi.i..pi.char.o.th.averag.weekl.expenditur.o..famil.i.Grea.Britain.A.ca.b.se.fr o.th.chart.th.mai.expenditur.o.a.averag.Britis.famil.i.spen.o.food.whic.account. fo.25.o.it.tota.expenditure.Th.nex.tw.significan.expendin.item.ar.transpor.an.ho using.whic.ar.15.an.12.respectively.I.w.tak.int.accoun.clothin.an.footwear.whic. make.u.10%.th.fou.essential.o.life.tha.is.food.transport.housing.an.clothin.an.f ootwear.amoun.t.62.o.th.tota.expenditure.(2) 曲线图作文曲线图(Line graph)也称为线性图或坐标图。

图表类英语作文四六级模板
图表类英语作文四六级模板Title: Interpreting the Chart: A Closer Look at the Data.In the realm of data analysis, charts and graphs play a pivotal role in conveying complex information in a visually appealing and comprehensible manner. They enable us to identify patterns, trends, and outliers, all of which are crucial for informed decision-making. In this article, we will delve into the intricacies of chart interpretation, focusing on the key elements that make up a chart and the techniques we can employ to extract meaningful insights from it.The first step in chart interpretation is understanding the basic components of a chart. Any chart, whether it's a bar chart, line chart, pie chart, or scatter plot,typically consists of the following elements:1. Title: The title provides a concise overview of thechart's contents, giving readers a general idea of what they are about to see.2. Axes: The axes represent the variables being measured. The horizontal axis, usually labeled as the 'x-axis', represents the independent variable, while the vertical axis, labeled as the 'y-axis', represents the dependent variable.3. Legends: Legends are used to identify different data series in a chart. They are especially helpful when a chart displays multiple data sets.4. Data Points: These are the actual numerical values represented visually in the chart. They are the building blocks of any chart and form the basis for analysis.Once you are familiar with these basic components, you can move on to the next step: analyzing the data. Here are some techniques that can help you extract meaningful insights from a chart:1. Identify Trends: Look for patterns or trends in the data. For example, in a line chart, you might notice that a particular data series is consistently increasing or decreasing over time. Such trends can provide valuable insights into the underlying dynamics of the phenomenon being studied.2. Compare Data Sets: If the chart displays multiple data sets, compare them to identify any differences or similarities. Look for outliers, or data points that stand out from the rest, as they can often provide valuable insights.3. Analyze Relationships: In scatter plots, analyze the relationship between two variables. Look for patterns in the distribution of data points to determine whether there is a positive, negative, or no correlation between the variables.4. Quantify Changes: Use the axes to quantify changes in the data. For example, in a bar chart, the length of each bar represents the magnitude of the change in thecorresponding data category. By comparing the lengths of different bars, you can easily identify which categories have experienced the most significant changes.5. Consider Context: Always remember to consider the context of the data when interpreting charts. The meaning of a particular data point or trend might vary depending on the context in which it is presented.In conclusion, chart interpretation is a crucial skill for anyone working with data. By understanding the basic components of a chart and employing effective analysis techniques, you can extract meaningful insights from complex datasets and make informed decisions based on evidence-based analysis. With practice and experience, you will become more proficient at chart interpretation and able to extract valuable insights from even the most complex charts.。

三．练习题 Model Test Two
Part I Writing (30 minutes)
Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a Composition on a Chart to describe and analyze
the changes in the students ’ using mobile phones in recent years. You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below in English:
(Please read the following chart, describe the changes and analyze the causes, and predict your expectation on students ’ using mobile phones.)
The Changes in the Students ’ Using Mobile Phones
year
percentage
From this chart, we can see clearly the dramatic increase of mobile phones in China in recent years. In 2000, the possession of mobile phones was only 20 percent, and in 2002, it rose to 45 percent, which was more than doubled ; while in 2005, it amazingly soared to 95 percent, which was more than 4 times that of 2000.
There are various reasons accounting for this booming phenomenon. First of all, mobile phones facilitate us to communicate with one another in the information age. Whenever and wherever we are, we can keep in touch with each other and get the latest information with mobile phones. Secondly, the price of mobile phones has been decreasing and the capacity of production of the mobile phones has been enhanced all the time accompanied by the upgrading of the electrical technology. Finally , the functions of mobile phones are so many that we can use them to perform different kinds of tasks to meet our individual needs. Besides receiving and sending information, we can surf the Internet to search for what we want and play games. It is the multi-functions of mobile phones that make them so popular among us.
In spite of the advantages mentioned above, the existing problems in using mobile phones can never be ignored. Firstly, it is still expensive and costly for a certain portion of ordinary students, who are mainly dependent on their parents. Secondly, the micro-waves of mobile phones are harmful to people ’s health. Finally some students spend so much time on playing with mobile phones that they are distracted from studies. However, all this is not the fault of mobile phones themselves. Great importance should be attached to the proper use of mobile phones and the prospects of mobile phones are definitely bright and hopeful.。
