建议的写作结构,对比此结构与考生有可能采用的不恰当结构。
介绍部分应该把题目用自己的话重写一遍。正文主体部分可以有三种写作样式。可以将正 文划分为 5 段(每段描述一个条目),或者分为 3 段(每段按照薪资水平,基础设施配备和 保险来描述一个饼形图)。对大部分考生而言,每段描述一个饼形图的写作样式或许会比较 容易,但是如果选择此种样式,切忌数字重复出现。最后应该有一个简短的评论,要特别 突出 1-2 个关键点。
参考范文 The pie charts show how a school spent money, in percentage terms, in the years 1981, 1991and 2001, across five categories.
The majority of spending in each year was on salaries. Teachers’ salaries accounted for 40% of spending in 1981. This increased to 50% in 1991, but dropped to 45% in 2001. Salaries for other workers accounted for 28% of spending in 1981, 22% in 1991 and 15% in 2001, demonstrating a constant fall.
Spending on resources such as books and on furniture and equipment took up 30% of
spending in 1981 – 15% each. By 1991, spending on resources had risen to 20% whilst spending on furniture and equipment had fallen dramatically to only 5%. By 2001, spending on resources had more than halved (in percentage terms) to 9% whereas spending on furniture and equipment had risen relatively substantially to 23%.
Finally, spending on insurance rose from 2% in 1981 to 3% in 1991 and thereafter to a more significant 9% of the total in 2001.
In summary, relative spending in all five categories changed a lot, with spending on teachers’ salaries being the largest portion.
