重点描写特征最明显扇面：最大-最小-成倍。
不简单说明，应归纳，有条理。
某些分扇面没要求分析，不描写。
P235饼图主体段另外写法：
The pie chart reflects an average（平均值）
household use of electricity in England.
(第一句综括，下面细说。) Heating for both
room and water accounts for the biggest
share of more than half.
The other half
of electricity is almost evenly（平等的）
used for three sections: ovens, kettles,
washing machines; lighting, TV, radio; and
vacuum cleaners, food mixers, electric
tools. The first section consumes a little
bit higher of 17.5% while the rest two have
an equal share of 15%.
From the two charts, it is clear that
electricity is in higher demand in winter
in England.

图表主体段写作，第一句话是主题句，
其他是支持句，介绍数据要尽量详尽。

一般来说支持句介绍数据，含以下要素：
① 对象
② 时间
③ 数值
④ 主要趋势动词（作谓语）
极值趋势动词（非谓语）
请看例句：
图表引用数据句型：
1. The number（对象） picked up （主要
趋势）in June（时间）, rocketing（极值
趋势） by almost 500% （数值）.
2. There was a marked improvement （主
要趋势） in July （时间） with the
number of visitors （对象） surging (冲
击）（极值趋势） 4000 per day .（数值）
图表引用数据句型：
3. The period between May and September （时
间） saw a steady growth （主要趋势） in the
number of visitors （对象） from 70,000 to
140,000 （数值）.
4. The gradual rise （主要趋势） in visitor
numbers （对象） from 30,000 to approximately
45,000 （数值） in the first four months （时
间） was followed by a sharper increase （极

图表引用数据句型：
但有时并不是所有要素都有(饼图）：
Heating for both room and water （对象）
accounts for （主要趋势） the biggest share
（极值趋势） of more than half （数值）.
有时采取复合句对比更好：
The first section （对象-1） consumes a
little bit higher （主要趋势-1） of 17.5%
（数值-1） while the rest two （对象-2） have
an equal share （主要趋势-2） of 15% （数值1）.

The two pie charts compare different
methods of communication used in 1962

At that time, the percentage of
telephone ( 35% ) was much higher than
that of computer (15%). (比较大小)

According to the second pie chart in
1982, the telephone, which was 60%,

people used computers to communicate
with others. (中值) However, writing
letters had the lowest percentage in
the three forms of communication,
which was only 10%. (极值：小)
结尾段

1962 to 1982, there was a sharp

of phone from 35% in 1962 to 60% in
1982. Similarly, the use of computer
