餅圖一直是雅思小作文寫作中常見的一種形式,出國留學(xué)網(wǎng)給大家詳細(xì)講解一下!


首先我們要知道餅形圖與柱形圖或者是線形圖截然不同的是它沒有橫軸與縱軸,而是以餅形的分割來表示百分比,因此我們可以用三步審題分析法來進(jìn)行觀察:

Step 1: 觀察共有幾張餅圖,以及它們之間的關(guān)系是什么(一般說來,雅思圖表題中極少見到單餅圖);
Step 2: 觀察每張餅圖中有哪幾個區(qū)域,以及各個區(qū)域分別代表什么;
Step 3: 觀察單個餅圖中各區(qū)域間的百分比差異,以及相同區(qū)域在各個餅圖間的百分比的比較或發(fā)展。
接下來就跟著小哥哥一起看看餅圖的寫作范例吧~
WRITING TASK 1:
You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.
* The charts below show US spending patterns from 1966 to 1996.
* Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
You should write at least 150 words.
由于餅圖主要以比例說明和數(shù)字列舉為主,我們需要在寫作前準(zhǔn)備好以下素材:
1. 動詞"占"的表達(dá)
account for, hold, make up, take up, constitute, comprise, represent
2. 百分比的表達(dá)
percentage,proportion, share, 某些情況下可以用rate,如literacy rate
3. 約數(shù)表達(dá)
the majority of, most of, a considerable number of, a minority of , just over…, slightly more than…/less than…, nearly half… 等
4. 確切數(shù)字表達(dá)
分?jǐn)?shù)與百分比的轉(zhuǎn)化:one third, two fifths,one tenth
常見表達(dá):a quarter, a half
5. 句式
要靈活運用以上的詞匯結(jié)合一定的句子,變換表達(dá)方式。
例:亞洲人口占世界比例近50%。
— Asia accounts for almost a half of world population.
— Nearly 50% of people in the world come from Asia.
— The percentage of Asian in the world population is slightly less than a half.
— Asia has the largest percentage of population in the world( approximately 50%).
6. 排序段
在列舉餅圖數(shù)據(jù)時,為了防止單調(diào)枯燥,我們常常運用排序的方式進(jìn)行說明:
— China takes the lead in world population.
類似的表達(dá)還有"be leading, the majority, mostly, most等"
— Next comes food, whose percentage is higher than that of clothing.
類似的表達(dá)還有"follow"
— People seem to show no interest in reference books, which lies last in the percentage.
類似表達(dá)還有"fall behind other items, the lowest proportion".
