《雅思写作预备3——柱图》.ppt

Welcome to IELTS WRITING BAR CHART 柱状图特点： 1. 柱状图是动态图表，切入点是描述趋势。 2. 柱状图写作注重“比较”(找出similarity)和“对比”(找出difference)。也就是说需要横向总结所有柱状图表的共性特征，也要分别描写各个柱子的个性特征。 3. 有两种写作方式：其一是对不同时间段内的数据进行比较，适合于数据代表的物体较少且时间界限明确的情况。另外是对单独数据的全程描述，适合于描述数据对象很多且时间划定不清晰的情况。 1. more/ fewer + n. + than e.g.更多的男性比女性选择了电视。 More males than females chose the TV. 2. more/ less + adj. + than e.g. 电视在男性中较在女性中更流行。 TV is more popular among males than females. 3. the most/ least + adj. e.g. 最流行的交流方式是因特网。 The most popular form of communication is the Internet. 4. (not) as many… as e.g. 同样多的男性和女性选择了计算机。 As many males as females chose the computer. 对两者进行比较的词汇 副词的使用 1. 几乎一样多的小孩和成人看古代历史相关的电视节目。 Nearly as many children as adults watch TV programmes about ancient history. 2. 过去更多的人居住在乡村而不是城镇。 In the past, considerably more people lived in the countryside than towns. 3. 比男性稍微多一点的女性选择了自行车。 Slightly more women than men voted for the bicycle. 对两者进行比较的词汇 1. whereas, but, while, although, though… + 句子 2. in comparison with, compared with… + n. Practise： P17 对两者进行对比的词汇 The chart below shows the amount of leisure time enjoyed by men and women of different employment status. Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information shown below. 柱状图 第一步：分析 X 轴和Y 轴 X1 ：性别 gender X2 ：就业状态 full-time, part-time, unemployed, retired, housewives Y：休闲时间 hours of leisure time 柱状图 第二步：分析图表 按 X2 的就业状态进行分类： 柱状图 注意“-” men women full-time 50 37 part-time - 40 unemployed 85 70 retired 85 70 housewives - 54 按 X1 男女人群分： 男：最多unemployed和retired 人群85；最少full-time50 女：最多unemployed和retired 人群70；最少full-time 37 柱状图 第三步：确定框架 有两种逻辑框架，第一是按照人群分类，共是5 类人群；第二种是按照男女性别进行分类。 结合图形，很明显就可以看出，5小类可以合并成3大类，employed full-time, part-time 算作工作族；unemployed，retired 算作无工作族，housewives 算作另类工作族。 柱状图 The chart shows the number of hours enjoyed by men and women in a typical week in 1998 – 1999, according to gender and employment status. 柱状图 开头段： Among those employed
