饼图(pie chart)

解题关键

饼图是所有图表题中最好写的一种，唯一值得注意的地方在于如何丰富百分比的表达和“占”的表达。

F????????饼图是静态图，重点在于描述分配和比例。

F????????丰富百分比的表达和“占”的表达。不要一直用数字加百分比的格式，如25％，这种文章很难拿到高分。特定的数字可以采取多样性的表达，如25％=a quarter of，?50％=half of．>50％=a／the majority of。

F????????文字中要表达出总量与分量的关系，介绍各扇面及总体的关系。

F????????重点突出特点最明显的扇面：最大的、最小的、互相成倍的。

F????????在两个以上的pie中，要注意各个扇面之间的比较，同类扇面在不同时间、不同地点的比较。

F????????数据究竟代表什么应该表达清楚。

举例

Topic 4-3：The pie chart below shows how Federal income tax is spent in the budget of the United States．Write a report for a university lecturer，describing the information shown below．You should write at least 150 words.

范文：

The pie chart indicates how the U.S.?budget is spent in six aspects including human resources, general government, physical resources, current and past military, and Iraq＆Afghan wars in 2004. (?概述该饼图所代表的含义)

Money spent in human resources?accounts for 33 percent of the total，occupying the largest share in the

whole budget．The second largest one is given to current military with 28 percent of the budget．Past military receives money ten percent less than current military,?followed by general government which?constitutes 13 percent．The two aspects offered the least money in the budget are physical resources and Iraq and Afghan Wars, making up 6 and 3 percent respectively. (按的逻辑顺序详细描述饼图中的每一部分。)

Current military, past military and Iraq and Afghan Wars, if considered separately，are not the largest money receiver in the budget．The three aspects in total，however, account for 49 percent of the budget，much higher than human resources，let alone general government and physical resources．(对各个部分进行对比、比较。)

From the chart it can be seen clearly that the majority of the US budget in 2004 is spent in military while the rest is allocated to human resources，general government and physical resources．
