Simon雅思写作-小作文

（01）课程目标

写作任务

描述一个图像，并就此写一份报告

注意：不要发表意见，不要有结论！！！只进行描述即可

题目类型

第一类：

1.折线图

2.柱状图

3.饼图

4.表格

以上四种类型的题目十分相似，都是描述图表中数据所展示的东西

第二类：

1.比较图

2.路程图

文章结构

小作文文章结构主要为四段式：

第一段：导言段

只需要写一句话，改写题目陈述即可

第二段：概述段（也可以放在最后一段）

需要写两句话即可，用来解释或描述图表的主要内容

第三、四段：细节段

这两个段落是文章的核心，主要包括数据描述、数据对比、数据变动趋势等

（02）折线图

折线图展示了数据在一段时间的变化，雅思写作的折线图一般有2-5条线

写作思路：首先做一个非常笼统的比较，然后比较特定点处的线

案例分析：

The graph below shows electricity production (in terawatt hours) in France Between 1980 and 2012.

The line graph compares the amount of electricity produced in France using four different sources of power over a period of 32 years.

It is clear that nuclear power was by far the most important means of electricity generation over the period shown. Renewables provided the lowest amount of electricity in each year.

In 1980, thermal power stations were the main source of electricity in France, generating around 120 terawatt hours of power. Nuclear and hydroelectric power stations produced just under 75 terawatt hours of electricity each, and renewables provided a negligible amount. Just one year later, nuclear power overtook thermal power as the primary source of electricity.

Between 1980 and 2005, electricity production from nuclear power rose dramatically to a peak of 430 terawatt hours. By contrast, the figure for thermal power fell to only 50 terawatt hours in 1985, and remained at this level for the rest of the period. Hydroelectric power generation remained relatively stable, at Between 50 and 80 terawatt hours, for the whole 32-year period, but renewable electricity production saw only a small rise to approximately 25 terawatt hours by 2012.

（03）柱状图

柱状图展示了数据在一段时间的变化，可以将柱状图转化为折线图形式

写作思路：首先做一个非常笼统的比较，然后比较具体的数据

案例分析：

The chart below shows global sales of the top five mobile phone brands between 2009 and 2013.

The bar chart compares the number of mobile phones sold worldwide by the five most popular manufacturers in the years 2009, 2011 and 2013.

It is clear that Nokia sold the most mobile phones between 2009 and 2011, but Samsung became the best selling brand in 2013. Samsung and apple saw the biggest rises in sales over the 5-year period.

In 2009, Nokia sold close to 450 million mobile phones, which was almost double the number of handsets sold by the second most successful manufacturer, Samsung. Over the following four years, however, Nokia’s sales figures fell by approximately 200 million units, whereas Samsung saw sales rise by a similar amount. By 2013, Samsung had become the market leader with sales reaching 450 million units.

The other three top selling mobile phone brands between 2009 and 2013 were LG, ZTE and apple. In 2009, these companies sold around 125 million, 50 million and 25 million mobile handsets respectively, but apple overtook the other two vendors in 2011. In 2013, purchases of apple handsets reached 150 million units, while LG saw declining sales and the figures for ZTE rose only slightly.

饼图展示的是百分比数据

写作思路：首先做一个非常笼统的比较，然后比较具体的数据

案例分析：

The charts below show household spending patterns in two countries between 1980 and 2008.

The pie charts compare five categories of household expenditure in the UK and New Zealand in the years 1980 and 2008.

It is noticeable that the proportion of spending on food and drink fell in both countries over the 28- year period, while spending on utility bills rose. Also, UK residents spent a significantly larger percentage of their household budgets on leisure than their New Zealand counterparts.

In 1980, 29% of an average New Zealand household budget went on food and drink, while the equivalent figure for a UK home was 23%. By 2008, expenditure on food and drink had fallen by 4% in New Zealand, and by a full 10% in the UK. By contrast, both countries saw an increase in expenditure on utility bills for the average home, from 27% to 31% in New Zealand and from 26% to 28% in the UK.

Leisure activities accounted for the highest proportion of UK household spending in both years, but only the third highest proportion in New Zealand. In fact, in 2008, New Zealanders spent only half as much in relative terms on recreation (17%) as UK residents (34%). In both countries, transport costs and other costs took roughly 15% and 10% of household budgets respectively.

写作思路：首先做一个非常笼统的比较，然后比较具体的数据

案例分析：

The table below shows statistics about the top five countries for international tourism in 2012 and 2013.

The table compares the five highest ranking countries in terms of the numbers of visits and the money spent by tourists over a period of two years.

It is clear that France was the world’s most popular tourist destination in the years 2012 and 2013. However, the USA earned by far the most revenue from tourism over the same period.

In 2012, 83 million tourists visited France, and the USA was the second most visited country, with 66.7 million tourists. Spain and China each received just under 58 million visitors, while Italy was ranked fifth with 46.4 million tourists. 2013 saw a rise of between 1 and 4 million tourist visits to each country, with the exception of China, which received 2 million fewer visitors than in the previous year.

Spending by tourists visiting the USA increased from $126.2 billion in 2012 to $139.6 billion in 2013, and these figures were well over twice as high as those for any other country. Spain received the second highest amounts of tourist revenue, rising from $56.3 billion to $60.4 billion, followed by France, China and Italy. Interestingly, despite falling numbers of tourists, Chinese revenue from tourism rose by $1.7 billion in 2013.

（06）两种不同的图

两种不同的图是指在同一题目中出现了两张不同类型的图表

不需要把两张图放在一起比较，分别描述它们即可

写作思路：首先给每张图做一个非常笼统的比较，然后分别描述具体的数据

案例分析：

The bar chart below shows the numbers of men and women attending various evening courses at an adult education centre in the year 2009. The pie chart gives information about the ages of these course participants.

The bar chart compares the numbers of males and females who took four different evening classes in 2009, and the pie chart shows the age profile of these attendees.

It is clear that significantly more women than men attended evening classes at the education centre. We can also see that evening courses were much more popular among older adults.

According to the bar chart, drama, painting and language courses all attracted more women than men to the education centre in 2009. Language classes had the highest number of participants overall, with 40 female and 20 male students, while painting was a popular choice among both genders, attracting 30 female and 25 male attendees. The only course with a higher number of males was sculpture, but this course was taken by a mere 15 people in total.

Looking at the age profile pie chart, we can see that the majority of people attending evening lessons were over 40 years of age. To be precise, 42% of them were aged 50 or more, and 26% were aged between 40 and 49. Younger adults were in the minority, with only 11% of students aged 20 to 29, and only 5% aged under 20.

8.每个段落要写多少句话

（07）流程图

流程图主要为生产物品方面的内容

流程图特征：没有数字，没有数据对比，没有趋势变化

写作思路：先看有多少步骤，流程的开始和结束在哪里，再分步讨论每个步骤

注意：要擅用描述步骤的语言以及被动语态

案例分析：

The diagrams* below show how glass containers, such as bottles, are produced and recycled.

The first flow diagram illustrates the process of glass container production, and the second diagram shows steps in the process of recycling used glass.

We can see that glass is made using three main raw materials, and that the manufacturing process consists of four distinct stages. It requires five steps to turn used glass into new glass products.

At the first stage in the production of glass, sand, soda ash, limestone and other chemicals are mixed together. Next, this mixture is heated in a glass furnace at approximately 1500℃ to produce molten glass. The molten glass can then be shaped, by blowing, to create the end products, namely glass containers.

Glass recycling begins with the collection of used glass products. The collected glass is sorted according to its colour, and then washed in order to remove any impurities. At the fourth stage of recycling, the glass is crushed and melted, and the resulting molten glass can finally be moulded to create new items.

（08）对比图

对比图展示了一些事物的变化或两个可供选择的设计（包含地图题）

写作思路：描述变化的事物以及未变化的事物；描述相同点并比较不同点

注意：动词的时态要格外注意

案例分析：

The diagrams below show the existing ground floor plan of a house and a proposed plan for some building work.

The two pictures compare the current layout of the ground floor of a house with a plan to redesign the same living space.

We can see that the new design proposal involves making a number of changes to the ground floor of the house, mainly in the central hall area. There are no plans to change external walls or entrances.

The most noticeable change from the existing to the proposed floor plan is that there will no longer be a separate hall area when the building work has been done. This will be achieved by removing the internal wall and door between the hall and living room, along with the current staircase and under-stair storage cupboard. With no separate hall area, the proposed living room will also contain the staircase to the first floor.

To replace the current straight staircase, a new set of winding stairs will be installed in the corner of the living room. The internal door between the hall and kitchen will also be replaced with double doors connecting the kitchen with the new living room. Finally, the planned building work will also include the installation of some kitchen furniture.
