data chart,这篇task1无疑会达到8分的水平。开篇的第一句话可以是一句高度概括性的introduction(当然开门见山直接描述也是一种写法);这样做不仅使文章更趋于完美,而且可以达到凑字数的目的(但不要照抄题目,除非时间相当紧迫)。接下来另起一段开始进行描述(根据实际情况1-2段),这当中经常要连续使用非限定性定于从句,从而使得描述过程流畅、清晰。最后也可再另起一段进行简短的综述(并非必须)。上述的任何一个步骤都要遵循依据现有data进行客观描述的原则,任何推测性或议论性的内容写得再多、再精彩不仅不会加分,而且还会成为扣分的因素。
二、data的具体表达法
data在某一个时间段固定不变:fixed in time 在一系列的时间段中转变:changes over time 持续变化的data在不同情况下:
增加:increase / raise / rise / go up ... 减少:decrease / grow down / drop / fall ... 波动:fluctuate / rebound / undulate / wave ... 稳定:remain stable / stabilize / level off ...
最常用的两种表达法:
动词 + 副词形式(Verb+Adverb form)
形容词 + 名词形式(Adjective+Noun form)
1. Verb+Adverb form The number of XXX
+increase/jump/rise/decrease/drop/fall/fluctuate...
+insignificantly/significantly/slightly/suddenly/rapidly/dramatically/sharply/steeply/steadily/gradually/slowly...
+from (第一时间) to (第二时间) / between (第一时间) and (第二时间)
2. Adjective+Noun form There was a (very) sudden/rapid/dramatic/significant/sharp/steep/steady/gradual/slow/slight
+increase/jump/rise/decrease/drop/fall/fluctuation (注意:上述很多词不可用于修饰fluctuation)
+in the number of XXX from (第一时间) to (第二时间) / between (第一时间) and (第二时间)
描述稳定的data:
The number of XXX remained steady/stable from (第一时间) to (第二时间) / between (第一时间) and (第二时间)
The number of XXX stayed the same from (第一时间) to (第二时间) / between (第一时间) and (第二时间)
There was little change / hardly any change / no change in the number of XXX from from (第一时间) to (第二时间) / between (第一时间) and (第二时间)

====Word行业资料分享--可编辑版本--双击可删====
描述不同状态的data Noun form:
steady drop / sharp rise peak / dramatic fall / sharp drop Verbal form:
(to) bottom out / (to) reach the bottom / (to) increase gradually / (to) reach a plateau / (to) remain steady
描述the highest point以及the lowest point 高点极值:
The monthly profit / The figures / The situation ...
+peaked in (月份/年) <准确时间点用at XXX> at XXX% / XXX(极点data) 或者reached a peak / a high point at XXX% / XXX(极点data) 低点极值:
XXX bottomed out / reached
+rock / the bottom / a low point 或者hit a trough
此外,在描述过程中还有很多的conjunctional words/sentences,最常用的固定搭配如下: 并列: as well as(句首/中), also, as well(句尾), either, neither, too, moreover, furthermore, in addition, additionally, besides, what's more, apart from ...
举例: for example, for instance, to illustrate, as an illustration, in particular, particularly, especially
事实: as a matter of fact, in fact, actually, as long as, so long as ... 雷同/近似:similarly, likewise(句首/尾), at the same time, equally ...
转折: however, whereas, nevertheless, nonetheless, though, although, even though, while, yet, on the contrary, contrarily, in contrast, conversely, on the other hand, unlikely, in stead (of), in spite of, despite of ...
原因与结果
1. cause-suggestion (几乎不常用) since / now that ...; I hope that...
because of/on account of/owing to/thanks to + (doing) sth, I hope that... 2. cause-effect (较常用)
XXX lead to / bring about / result in/ account for ...
(一个句子), therefore / thus / hence / as a result / consequently / (and) so ... 3. effect-cause (较常用)

开头段写作结构和表达
如您需写的文章是关于图表,您应注意资料是固定在某一个时间(fixed in time)还是在连串的时间中转变(changes over time)。如资料是一直转变的,您应用适当的文字和句子描述。资料转变可以是增加(Increase),减少(Decrease),波动(Fluctuate)或稳定(Remain Stable)。一般有两种文法可以表达:
动词 + 副词形式(Verb+Adverb form)
形容词 + 名词形式(Adjective+Noun form) The number of (cars)
VERB + ADVERB FORM increased jumped rose significantly decreased dropped fell fluctuated slightly suddenly rapidly dramatically sharply steeply steadily gradually slowly from (June) to (December). between (June) and (December). There was a (very)
ADJECTIVE + NOUN FORM sudden rapid dramatic significant sharp steep steady gradual slow slight increase jump rise decrease drop fall fluctuation
in the number of (cars) from ... to ... in the number of (cars) between ... and ... 并不是每个词都能配合,例如sharp fluctuation.
以下的句法是用于描述稳定资料
The number of (cars sold) remained
steady stable from (June) to (December).
between (June) to (December). stayed the same There was little hardly any no change
in the number of (cars sold) from ... to ... between ... and ...
资料的不同状态有不同的用字,以下是一些例子: Steady drop sharp rise peak dramatic fall
sharp drop through (to) bottom out
(to) reach the bottom gradual increase (to) reach a plateau (to) remain steady
以下是如何描述最高点或最低点的参考句子: The monthly profit The figures The situation peaked in December. at 20%
reached a peak a high (point) bottomed out reached rock the bottom a low (point) hit a trough 用动词的时候,要小心注意时式(tense)和语态(Voice)是否恰当,如果是要描述事件过程或步骤,应用现在式(present tense)和被动词(passive voice)来描述每个过程或步骤。 您也可用动名词(Gerund)和不定词(Infinitive)来加强句子的完整性。

例句:
The second stage involves conducting suitable research. Notes are taken from available literature at the library. Writing the first draft is the third stage.
写好结论
Writing Task 1 并不同Writing Task 2,您并不需要分段写结论(Conclusion),因为您并不需要发表任何个人意见。通常Writing Task 1 文章的最后一句会被视为结论句。
根据上一个步骤的信息确定,开头段简单来说可以分为两个部分:第一,转述和改写原题,第二,在需要的时候适当加入一些图表内的概括性信息。
对于“转述和改写原题”这个部分,不外乎原题进行同义词、语法关系和加减单词的变化,我们可以将这个部分用一个固定的结构总结为“这个图表为我们描述了×××时间内在×××地区×××对象的×××方面的信息”。通过这个固定的结构我们可以看出,除了×××的部分,其余的部分都是固定不变的,因此我们完全可以在考试前就确定相关的内容和表达,我们通过例子来说明这一结构。
例题: The table below show social and economic indicators of four countries in 1994, according to United Nations statistics.
Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
根据这一结构,开头段可以写的内容为“这个图表为我们描述了1999年内在四个地区在四个经济和社会指标方面的信息”。
所以我们先确定固定内容的写法: “这个图表”:图表类作文中涉及到的无非线line柱bar饼pie表table四类结合chart,illustration,diagram,graph和table这几个常用的“图表”单词,再加上together with,combined with,as well as等固定表达,开头段的这一个部分完全可以确定下来了; “描述了”: show,describe,offer an overview,present,compare等,可以用来表达这一概念的动词可谓应有尽有; “信息”:从宽泛的information,data,figures到具体的percentage,distribution,proportion,考生只需要根据题目的具体要求选择合适的单词即可。
其次我们根据题目的要求可以改写的部分为: “时间”:单个时间点,多个时间点和时间段都有多种的表达方式,考生只需在考前做好总结的工作即可。
“描述对象”:这往往是改写的难点,可以通过同义词和语法关系的替换来实现。例如social and economic indicators可以替换为indicators in both social and economic fields/ economic and social conditions in different aspects等。
因此,综合以上的信息,一个简单的开头段就完成了:The given table provides an overview of social and economic conditions from different aspects in four countries in the year 1994.
然后,对于同样的题材,我们讨论第二个部分“在需要的时候适当加入一些图表内的概括性信息”。这一部分主要应用在主体段内容单薄的情况下,对于这一部分,我们主要可以通过两种方式来实现。

下定义和解释说明的表达方式:首先请大家牢记in other words, namely等下定义的表达方式和take … into consideration,in terms of,considering等补充说明的表达方式的正确使用,然后将其灵活的应用到对图表中文字信息的补充说明上。
举个例子来说,以上题为例,我们可以将刚刚的开头改写为The given table provides an overview of social and economic conditions from different aspects in four countries, namely, Canada, Japan, Peru and Zaire in the year 1994.
或者The given table provides the information of social and economic conditions in four countries in the year 1994, in terms of the annual income per person, life expectancy at birth, daily calorie supply per person and the literacy rate. All the date is based on the year 1994. 插入图表中的总趋势:对于某些有总体趋势的图表,考生可以在开头段中就加入对总趋势的描述,此举首先可以补充内容的不足,同时可以对全文结构起到总括性的作用。
通过以上的总结,我们不难发现,对于图表类作文的开头段,其内容和形式“丰俭由人”,考生完全可以根据图表内容的信息量,“审时度势”,来确定开头段的写作内容和模式,并在构思完毕之后以最快的时间完成这个部分的行文
1, Overtake 【词性】动词 【出现频率】三星
【用法】本意为“超过”,在曲线图以及其他可以换成曲线图来写的图形中,一般都会出现交叉点。而交叉点的最佳描述方式并不是more than或者是beyond(考官又不是黄家驹的粉丝)。确定一条曲线,在某个点上超过另外一条曲线即可。如剑七满分范文中的:overtaking that of lamb in 1980 and that of beef in 19.与此相似的词还有:Outpace, outnumber, exceed… 2,Approximately 【词性】副词 【出现频率】三星
【用法】雅思小作文最常见词之一,意为“大概”,等同于 around,但在写作中最好不要写上about,因为雅思写作乃学术性写作,about过于口语化了。在考试中能用此词最好用它,但不要过多,注意和around替换使用。
3,Respectively 【词性】副词 【出现频率】三星
【用法】本意为“分别的”,遇到多重属性的时候最为有用。雅思小作文拒绝流水账式的写作,一定要用最精辟的语言表达最完整的信息。所以,列举出各种属性后再用respectively将其各种对应的比值写上即可。如剑7的范文:In 1940 the figures were 9% and 7% respectively, rising to15% and 14% respectively in 1980.
4,Consumed 【词性】过去分词 【出现频率】四星
【用法】本词源自于剑七上考官提供的满分范文,原词为consumption,从此处可看出考官在小作文中

对非谓语动词的钟爱。此类词具有多重功效,可做定语,插入语,伴随状语…所有的目的只有一个:使文章更显得精辟与多样化。What’s more,我们在选择词汇的时候同样也可以注意到一个词的多种形式。请记住,相同的意思也可以用不同的词表达出来这样才方显你词汇的variety!
5,Increase/decrease 【词性】名词/动词 【出现频率】四星
【用法】小作文中总会有“增加”“减少”这类趋势性描述的词,它们组成了曲线图以及类曲线图中必不可少的词汇。但绝对不能单一地使用,还记得词汇多样性的评分标准吗?Rise, grow, go up/drop fall, sink, drop, decline…都是可供选择的词。
6, Significant 【词性】形容词 【出现频率】四星
【用法】本意为“重要的”,在小作文中用作上升下降变化幅度的词。光有了增加减少还不够,比如剑7TEST2中那幅图,牛肉羊肉和鱼肉都是下降,这就需要我们有不同的表幅度的词。总体上我们可以分为幅度大的:(sharp dramatic rapid substantial significant);幅度小的:(slight moderate modest);逐渐的:(gradually steadily increasingly)这样三大类配合使用。
7, Figure 【词性】名词 【出现频率】四星
【用法】本意为“图表”或者是“数据”。做“图表”这个意思讲的时候可以放在首段介绍段中统称所有的图表。重点是“数据”这个意思,小作文不同于大作文的地方在于图表中有诸多数据,我们在写的时候就要带入这些数据以证明趋势的变化。所以,绝对不能不写。当然也不能写得过多,今年六月中旬重庆的考试中就出现了50个数据的表格题,难道我们都写上吗?这里就要注意一个信息分层的问题了,最好写前划出最重要,次重要和不重要数据,留下最重要的信息描述即可。
8, When
【词性】连词 【出现频率】四星
【用法】这里的when并不是我们中学阶段学过的那个意思。在小作文中它具有不可磨灭的连接作用。当前一个词是表示时间的词时,我们用它来连接后面一个句子或短语起连贯和衔接作用。如:老师的数量一直上升到1976年,然后保持在八百万不变。It went up gradually until 1976 when there was a leveling off at 8 million.与此相似的起连接作用的词还有after, before, which was followed by...
9,Contributing 【词性】动名词 【出现频率】五星
【用法】此词源于剑七真题满分范文,曾经有考官说过小作文其实最好的标准就只有两个字:“精辟”。事实也是如此,你在满分范文中很难找出那种又大又难的句子出来。如何将你的文章变得更加精辟便是一大难事,而动名词则为我们提供了很大的便利,用含有动名词的伴随状语或插入语来表达变化量或者对比,节约字数和凸显你写作巧妙性的同时,精辟也显现无疑了。请看下面的例句:The remaining 40 units were produced largely from oil and nuclear power, with hydro contributing only 5

units.
10, Paragraphing 【词性】动名词 【出现频率】五星
【用法】之所以将本词列于最后,是因为它是你写小作文前第一件应该做的事情。雅思考官非常注重写作的逻辑性,而你的文章最直观体现逻辑的地方就是在分段上面。大部分觉得小作文难的同学就是因为拿到图表以后自己的头脑中还没有形成清晰的逻辑就开始下笔写,写到一半时候就不知道后面该怎么了。所以当你看到图以后先别着急动笔,冷静地观察并分好段再analyze出最重要的信息写出来即可。所以,此乃写好小作文的先决条件!一般来说,小作文总体一般不超过五段,超过五段说明你描述过细字数超标从而时间用去太多以至于大作文不能完成,少于五段则会造成字数偏少扣分更严重
1.数值大与小的比较
在同时期比较两个事物的数值时,例如,表达A大B小,常常用表示对比的连词while将两句话连接起来,并且在while后面的B事物前加上much more或者much less一类的比较级,以突出B的小,跟A做对比。例如:
Lamb and chicken were eaten in similar quantities (around150grams), while much less fish was consumed(justover50grams).
(剑七Test2)
或者B事物前加用only来表示数值很小,又例如:
…nuclear power,...,had develop din to the main source, producing almost75% of electricity, at 126units,whilecoalandoiltogetherproducedonly50units.
(剑七Test4)
变化幅度的大小也能够被类似的句式表达,比如:
The consumption of fish also declined, but much less significantly to just below 50grams…
(剑七Test2)
2.增长与减少的比较
这也是段落内部十分常见的对比方式。先描述A下降或上升了,然后用while或者类似的连词连接后面的B上升或下降了;同时,这种比较也适用于段落之间,比如正文的一个主体段写A,B和C都上升了,下一个主体段写D下降了。需要注意的是,如果是段落间的比较,则不适合用while,而应该用In contrast, Conversely, on the other hand一类表示意群对比的句首词。例如:
The consumption of chicken, on the other hand, showed an upward trend,…

(剑七Test2,作为一段的首句,说明前面一段写的是其他几种肉类的消费量都下降了。)
段落内部的比较还是可以放心大胆的用while,例如:
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,….
