--- tags: - Notes - IELTS/Writing status: Ongoing --- ## Part 1 ### 1.0 写作任务 雅思小作文写作看重数据的**总结**和汇报的**层次**,这是一个经典的写作任务描述: >Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the **main features**, and **make comparisons** where relevant. #### 1.0.1 哪些值得写? 1. 高度概括的**总体特征**和区别于它的 2. 数值 1. 初始值 - 终值 2. 大的:数字或$\Delta$ 3. 离群值、极值(或者自选一个阈值使得该数据特殊) 3. 趋势 1. 升高、降低、不变 2. 趋势的变化 4. 不要对数据进行计算 #### 1.0.2 对数据进行分组 使用1.0.1中的特征,进行分组 1. 先根据大特征分大**组**(段落) 2. 再根据组内特征找出特殊值(句子层次) 3. 对比注意控制变量,否则难以通过数据说明白 ### 1.1 动态图 注意时态问题: 这是一类最经典的题目,学生应当尽可能地展现数据的变化趋势。最典型的呈现方式是条形图。 > The line graph compares three developed countries in terms of the percentage of the aged population/senior **Basic structure** (by paragraph & type) 1. Rephrase the question 2. General feature (one or two sentence(s) only) 3. comparing the data at the start From the highest/biggest to smaller/lower one 4. make comparisons **between two** categories 可以试着通过讲对比的两个对象排序,做到连贯。 1. Similar trend 变化态势相近 2. Same path 绝对值变化相近 3. Time point splits two stage (for one or two) 带转折的:某个时间点态势变化了(上升、下降、不变) ### 1.2 动静结合 这是一类(时间上)对比2-3组数据的题目,要求学生均衡地分配重心在静态特征及简单的变化上。 呈现方式上,可能是饼图或者表格图。 ![](https://photo.mxr612.io/api/v1/t/93495fbc18af3b24d47b66e1f4da96ba6efdad98/ui8yksrc/fit_720) **Basic structure** (by paragraph & type) 1. Rephrase the question 2. General features: 1. 观察最大值和最小值的分布,在两年或者三年中是否一致。 2. 观察是否有总量的数据 3. Specifically: 1. 初始值的排序 4. Comparison (从显著到不显著)带到后续的关键数据: 1. 升高 2. 减少 > **带总量的图:** 在动态图和动静结合中,都有可能遇到“总量”。其不适合与其子项比较,需要在总体趋势中概括到。 ### 1.3 静态图 #### 1.3.1 数据:表格、饼图、柱状图 注意识别不是时间的轴,理解出题人选择图表的意图: 1. 表格:主效应 2. 饼图:分组详述,重要成分的比例 3. 柱状图:详细与多样的组间对比 Basic Structure 1. Rephrase 2. Main features: 1. Range (min & max) of the ratio variable 2. Interaction effect and main effect 3. Elaborate the effect with data 4. Group data by threshold values #### 1.3.2 流程图 Basic Structure: 1. Rephrase (Process): The flow chart illustrates the process of …… 2.
