　　关键词：雅思、小作文、感悟、趋势、数据

　　近期，和雅思考官交流了一下，发现了以前的误区，也发现了在小作文方面的很多可以挖掘的细节。和大家分享三个感悟。

　　感悟一：在开头要会说不同的图叫什么，越详细的名字越好，这样让考官对你刮目一下。

　　感悟二：关于小作文的具体写法(请严格遵照下面的权威写法介绍)，一定要描述趋势(我经常在上课的时候把‘趋势’命名为图的‘灵魂’。)

　　most graphs will have two trends, or there will be two graphs with a trend in each. you could tell about the two trends in two separate paragraphs. make sure you have identified the trends in the graph.

　　开头段：

　　introduction

　　第一句话：描述表格

　　• first sentence: describe the graph. you can use some slightly different words or word forms from those on the question paper, but be careful to give the full information. start "the graph shows"

　　第二句话：描述趋势

　　• second sentence: this gives the trend or trends. you can put two trends in this sentence or only one - you could keep the other one for the conclusion. start "overall, ..."

　　分论点第一段：趋势一

　　第一句一定要描述趋势(这句不需要加数据)，第二句再跟上例子(这句必须加上数据)

　　paragraph 1: trend 1

　　• start with a sentence with no number. “city size increased sharply over the period.” “the most obvious trend in the graph is that women are having fewer babies.” “oil production has increased slightly in all the countries in the graph”

　　• follow this sentence with an example (sentence with number) and perhaps another example (another sentence with number). keep alternating.

　　分论点第二段：趋势二

　　第一句一定要描述趋势(这句不需要加数据)，第二句再跟上例子(这句必须加上数据)

　　paragraph 2: trend 2

　　• start with a sentence with no number. “city size increased sharply over the period.”

　　• give an example (sentence with number) and perhaps another example

　　总结：换一下词重复说一下图中的趋势(不必使用数据，不必加入主观想法)

　　conclusion

　　• finish by repeating the main trends, or identify a second trend. use different vocabulary.

　　• don't have any numbers in the conclusion (you could use words like "most", "the majority" "a minority", "a small number").

　　• don’t give an opinion.

　　感悟三，有些不必要做的请远离。

　　• 不必描述横纵轴，给出信息即可。

　　• 不必每个数据都提到，抓大放小。

　　• 数据的变化说具体一些，不要说“the line went up,” “the bar went down.”，而要说真实的数据如“the number of people going to work by train increased gradually.” “oil production shot up in 1965”

　　• 不要说“i feel”, “as i have written,” “as you can see,”，要有学术范儿。

　　• 不要用‘but, so, also, and, for, since, because, although’放句首。

　　while you write: some don’ts

　　• don’t describe the x and y axis. give the information.

　　• don’t write about everything on the graph. pick the biggest, the smallest, the main points, the main trends. group similar things together

　　• don’t write about the line or the bar: “the line went up,” “the bar went down.” instead, write about the idea. “the number of people going to work by train increased gradually.” “oil production shot up in 1965”

　　• make sure you write about the idea. don’t use shorthand: “men went up.” “women went down.” instead, write about the real data: “the number of men at university fell dramatically,” “the percentage of female students getting a degree rose suddenly.”

　　• don’t use “i feel”, “as i have written,” “as you can see,” etc. keep it academic.

　　• don’t start sentences with but, so, also, and, for, since, because, although
