图表信息类书面表达写作指导

一、题型特点

图表信息类书面表达一向是中考英语写作中的难点，所涉及的题材广泛，如人物简介、地点介绍、新闻报道等；体裁多种多样，文体多以说明文和议论文为主，其特点为条理清晰，具有可译性。考查时要求同学们根据图表、数据等进行分析与研究，阅读其中的文字和弄清各种信息之间的关系，提炼要点，然后组织语言进行写作，必要时还要加入作者自己的观点。

二、写作思路

1.认真阅读写作要求，根据图表提示，确认题目的目的、要求以及表达的中心内容，从而确定文章的体裁和格式。

2.分析图表的提示内容，按顺序逐一地、完整无缺地把图表中的内容找出来，用英语列出要点及各个要点的关键词语，再选用自己最有把握的句型来连词成句，将有关信息都体现在自己所写的语句之中。

3.核对要点，注意过渡，保证通顺。完成初稿之后，应对照图表所给的提示，核对要点是否有遗漏，各个要点是否表达准确。还要注意上下句之间的联系，适当添加过渡句或连接词，以便连成一篇内容连贯、逻辑通顺的短文。

4.默读检查，注意格式。仔细默读所写短文草稿，检查各个句子的语法结构是否正确，句子之间是否通顺连贯，以及所写的文体格式是否规范等，确定无误后再将短文认真书写在试卷上。同时注意单词拼写、字母大小写、标点符号等细节之处，做到工整、简洁、规范。

三、注意事项

1.图表作文的结构通常为三部分：（1）分析图表中的数据变化所反映出的问题或趋势，简要概述图表所揭示的信息；（2）分析原因；（3）提出解决问题的办法或建议。因此，同学们在写作时要直截了当、尽快人题，适当加入自己的议论，力争做到观点明确，不要拐弯抹角，拖泥带水，使人读后一头雾水。

2.突出重点，抓住图表中的数值极点，如最大或最小、最多或最少、最好和最差等信息。

3.说明、描述图表时应该注意动词时态，属于过去发生的应该用一般过去时，属于经常发生的应该用一般现在时。

4.充分利用图表中提供的文字或说明，但是，不能任意捏造图表中没有的信息。

四、实例分析

（2015年成都卷）请根据以下交通事故因素（factors）统计图表，以“Major causes of traffic ac-cidents”为题，用英语写一篇简短的分析报告，向学校英语报投稿。

注意：

1.报告需逐条陈述下面pie chart和bar chart（柱状图）中呈现的主要内容。（至少5点）

2.提出你对交通安全总的看法。（至少2点）

3.词数：100左右，所给标题不计入总词数。

【写法点拨】

题目要求写一篇关于交通事故的简短分析报告，文体为说明议论文。

1.引出话题：Nowadays， there are always kinds of traffic accident reports.

2.分析图表内容：

pie chart： driver factors，85%；vehicle fac-tors，5%；road environment factors，10%（三种因素中，驾驶员因素是关键原因）

bar chart：speeding，50%；drunk driving，15%；tired driving，26%；not using seat-belt，25%（疲劳驾驶因素与不使用安全带因素所占比例相当）

3.自己观点：pay attention to traffic safety in our life；try to obey the traffic rules

[关键词语]

analyze the major causes“分析主要原因”；the followings“如下”；according to“根据”；as well as“与……一样（程度）”；in my opiniort“在我看来”；keep in mind“记住”；at the same time“同时”

[常用句式]

It's important for us to analyze…

It's quite clear that…

The harder we try，the happier our life will be

[参考范文]

Major Causes of Traffic Accidents

Nowadays，there are always kinds of traffic accidents reports from newspapers，TV news and so on.As a result，it's important for us to analyze the major causes.The followings are two reports.

According to the pie chart，there are mainly three factors：85% is about driver factors，5% is from vehicle factors and 10% is road environment factors.Among them，it's quite clear that the first one is the key point.

So another bar chart points that there are four reasons to causes it，including speeding which is 50%，drunk driving which holds 15%，tired driving which is 26% as well as not using seat-belt which is 25%. In my opinion，everyone should keep in mind that traffic safety is one of the most important things in our life.At the same time，we should try our best to obey the traffic rules.The harder we try，the happier our life will bel

[写作亮点]

本文在结构上采用“三段式”写作模式谋篇布局。第一段开门见山，引出交通事故这个话题；第二段分析造成交通事故的各种原因；第三段提出自己的观点。整篇文章思路清晰，层次分明，语言得体，用词准确。

五、备考建议

1.加强阅读，背诵课文。

“读书破万卷，下笔如有神”，平时大量的英文阅读和好词好句的积累是提高写作水平的关键。在作文上能得高分者，必然是一个成功的阅读者。通过阅读，同学们可以巩固所学的重点词汇与典型句型，不断夯实语言基础。

2.研读范文，模仿训练。

模仿是学习语言的一种基本形式，同学们在复习时可以寻找一些图表类书面表达，多做一些这方面的练习。从内容上看，词汇、句型、段落与篇章都可以仿写，大家应学会在模仿中掌握写作技巧。

3.掌握技巧，提高能力。

一篇好的作文，不仅体现学生遣词造句、把握条理思路的能力，而且能反映出其逻辑思维和思想认识等方面的状况。同学们可以从简单一些的提纲式作文开始练习，逐步过渡到比较难的图表式作文，切实抓好“认真审题、构思谋篇、遣词造句、连句成文”这几个关键环节。

When in China，do as the Chinese do！

Meals in China are different in some ways from meals in the West.In China，lunch is usual-ly served around 12 o'clock. As for dinner，Chi-nese people eat it much earlier than people in the West.Chopsticks are used to eat most food.Gen-erally，for dinner，there'll be lots of different dish-es，not just three courses.Besides，Chinese peo-ple like to talk about food，so it's a good topic dur-ing ameal.The golden rule is：When you're in China，watch the Chinese and do as they do！
