下面是2011年11月19日雅思写作机经的内容,包括了这次考试中小作文中关于澳大利亚看电影的年龄分布的线状图和表格,以及大作文中关于工作满意度的社会类话题两个部分。下面我们就一起来看看这次考试的雅思A类写作考题会给大家带来哪些启发和借鉴呢? 图表作文
图表种类:Line graph and table
图表说明:
The graph below shows the cinema attendance of different age groups in Australia between 1994 and 2002.
Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
图表要素回忆:
表格第一行是百分比;第二行是频率,就是每年平均去看电影的次数,从1994到2002隔两年一次数据。
线图是按年龄组:分别是14-24, 25-35, 35-45, 50+。
越年轻的人去看电影的次数越多,50+的在最下面。波形是先上升再下降再平稳下降。
议论文
话题类别:社会类
考题文字:Some people argue that job satisfaction is more important than job security. Other people think one should hold a permanent job. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
本次写作考试点评:
本次写作考试小作文属于较为简单的线图加表格,属于静态加动态的经典数据组合。表格的数据按照大小关系排列,而线图则按照时间顺序写。数据起点的描述尽量以解释数据含义为主,比如:In 1990, almost 90% of 14 to 24 year olds went to the cinema at least once a year. Cinema attendance was about 30% lower than this among people aged 25 to 34 and 35 to 49, while the figure for those aged over 50 was the lowest, at only 40%. 写的时候注意比较趋势变化的异同,连接词可以使用similarly, conversely来衔接,若遇到交叉点,可以使用交叉点的写法:
比如:
(The production) of CFC-12, on the other hand, (showed an) (upward trend) throughout the 20-year period from 25 to 50 million tones, (surpassing) the production of CFC-11 in (1989).
