图表作文

图表作文提示部分包括图表和文字要点提示两部分。图表的类型主要有：圆形（饼型）图（piechart）、柱形图(直型图)（graph）、曲线图（chart）和数据统计表(表格)（table）。图表作文的写作内容包括综合理解、客观详述和主观表达。

图表作文是根据图表提供的数字或文字等信息进行归纳总结，分析规律，把握主题，反映某种现象的作文。评述中可以先述后评或夹述夹评。可以采用说明文和议论文相结合的文体形式。写作图表作文时应该注意的几个方面：1. 要对图表作简要的主题介绍。

2. 切忌不加详细分析、罗列数字。要进行横向、纵向的比较，寻找规律性的信息，通过计算

找出部分与整体、部分与部分之间的关系，如增减的绝对数字、百分比、分数或倍数等。

3. 分析原因，寻找规律，把握主题。4. 根据分析所得信息得出结论。

写图表作文，并不是单纯地用语言文字把图表里的所有数字信息一一摊摆，逐条列出，而是利用这些数据，经常还得筛选，将该图表所要说明的主要问题阐述清楚。就这个意义上说，图表作文属于说明文。如果图表信息是用来论证某一观点，则图表作文属于议论文。因此，图表作文在结构处理和写法上与说明文或议论文是相同的。它通常必须：

1. 用一个主题句或引言段，综述全图表的中心信息（也就是考生在审阅

图表后形成的结论）。

2. 列举三组左右的相关数据来说明或证实主题句或引言段所提及的要点。

分析产生这一图表结论的原因或联想推测可能引起的后果。

How People Spent Their Holidays

As can be seen from the table, the past decade have witnessed dramaticchanges in the way people spent their holiday between 1990 and 2000.In1990, 63% of people spent their holidays at home, while the figure droppedconsiderably to 24% in 2000. It is obvious from the table that people tendedto be more and more mobile, and they wanted to get entertainment in theoutside world.

What contributed to these changes? I think the reasons are as follows. Tostart with, with the rapid development of economy, people earn by far moremoney than they used to. Thus, people are able to afford traveling expenses.Secondly, people think it important to get well-informed about the outsideworld in this new era when everything is on the move. Traveling, of course,

is a sure way to achieve this goal. What's more, in this competitive society,people are usually under great stress. However, it is not difficult to findtraveling an effective way to relieve people's stress and get relaxation. Lastbut not least, by traveling outside, people are close to nature, which is notonly beneficial to their health but also peace of mind.

In conclusion, people prefer to go traveling rather than stay at homeduring holidays for various reasons. Moreover, it seems that this trend willlast in the foreseeable future.

Health Gains in Developing Countries

During the period from 1960 to 1990, the life expectancy of developingcountries rose from 40 years to nearly 60 years, while infant mortalitydecreased from 200 deaths per 1000 births to around 100.

We believe that three reasons can account for this phenomenon. First,economy develops quickly in developing countries during this period, andliving quality improves significantly as a result. Second, people's healthconditions also become better and better with the development of nationalhealth care systems. When they become richer, they care more about personalhealth conditions. Third, medical sciences also develop at a fantastic speed,and it is much safer for mothers to give birth.

We are happy to see that things are becoming better and better nowadays.We can imagine that people will live longer and the infant mortality will

again fall.

Film Is Giving Way to TV

During the period between 1975 and 1985，film-goers declined abruptlyfrom 85,000 to about 12,000, while TV-watchers increased sharply from5,000 to more than 100,000.

Several reasons can account for this phenomenon. Compared with a film,TV is much cheaper and more convenient --you don't have to leave yourhouse at all. Apart from that, you have many choices while watching TV, buta film concentrates on a certain topic.

However, there are still a number of people who enjoy going to thecinema, generally for two reasons. On the one hand, the audio-visual effect ofa cinema is much better. On the other hand, in a quiet and comfortable placesuch as a cinema, you can concentrate on what you are watching and get themost of the film.
