閱卷考官經(jīng)常是不會(huì)看那些圖表的,因此文章必須邏輯清晰,如果描述得能令人在腦海里勾畫出那個(gè)data chart,這篇task1無疑會(huì)達(dá)到8分的水平。開篇的第一句話可以是一句高度概括性的introduction(當(dāng)然開門見山直接描述也是一種寫法);這樣做不僅使文章更趨于完美,而且可以達(dá)到湊字?jǐn)?shù)的目的(但不要照抄題目,除非時(shí)間相當(dāng)緊迫)。接下來另起一段開始進(jìn)行描述(根據(jù)實(shí)際情況1-2段),這當(dāng)中經(jīng)常要連續(xù)使用非限定性定于從句,從而使得描述過程流暢、清晰。最后也可再另起一段進(jìn)行簡短的綜述(并非必須)。上述的任何一個(gè)步驟都要遵循依據(jù)現(xiàn)有data進(jìn)行客觀描述的原則,任何推測(cè)性或議論性的內(nèi)容寫得再多、再精彩不僅不會(huì)加分,而且還會(huì)成為扣分的因素。
