【写作小贴士】
表格题(Table)曾经出现在剑桥系列丛书B5P98“Underground Railway Systems”---单表格、B6P30“Global water use by sector”+“Water consumption in Brazil and Congo in 2000”---线图+表格、B7P30“Percentage of national consumer expenditure by category---2002”以及B8P30“Causes of worldwide land degradation”+“Causes of land degradation by region”---饼图+表格,针对此类题目,需提醒大家注意的是:仔细观察表格横行和纵列各自代表的意义,另外在body paragraph(s)写作的过程中,第一纵列内所列内容一个不能缺,具体如下:第一、开头introduction释义题目,变换题目words, phrases and sentence structure;第二、在写作body paragraph(s)时,注意“相似数据”描述以及“大小数据”比较论述;第三、conclusion段写作时,注意对body paragraph(s)数据客观解析部分进行总体趋势概述。
