曲线图作文

曲线图

(Line

graph)

也称为线性图或坐标图。曲线图最适合表示两

个变量之间关系的发展 过程和趋势。一般来说，曲线所呈现的形

状比某一点所代表的变量的值更有意义。曲线图 有横轴和纵轴。

一般先看横轴所代表的数量或时间等，然后再看纵轴所显示的意

义。同时必须找出线条所反映的最高或最低的变化。例如：

这个曲线图的横轴代表

1990

年的不同的月份，纵轴代表交通事

故的数量。从交通事故曲线图上可 知，前八个月的交通事故的数

量有升有降。

曲线图在八月份升到 了最高点

(39)

，

此后一直呈下降< /p>

的趋势，十二月份降到了最低点

(16)

。可见，

1990

年的交通事故

的数量 总体上呈下降的趋势。

(3)

条形图作文

条形图

(Bar

graph)

也称为立柱图或圆柱图。条形图由宽度相同但

长度不同的条块代表不同 的量。当要比较几个项目或量时，常用

不同颜色来区分。条形图主要用来表示：

1)

同一项目在不同时间

的量

< br>;2)

同一时间不同项目的量。阅读条形图时，要先看图例，再

< br>看横轴、纵横各代表什么量，每一个刻度所代表的值是多少，最

后找出图中各长条 所表示的数据及各长条间的相互关系。例如：

期望寿命

)

在不同

时 间的量。右边的条形图的横轴也是代表时间，纵轴是代表婴儿

的死亡率

< br>(Infant Mortality)

，这一条形图想要体现的也是同一项目< /p>

(

婴儿的死亡率

)

在不同时间的量。左边的条形图表明

1990

) reasons for the changes;

3. draw your own conclusions.

4. You should quote as few figures as possible.

范文：

From

the

chart

we

can

see

that

during

the

past

five

years

there

have

been

great

changes

in

people

’

s

diet.

The

greatest

change

occurs

in

grain

consumption,

which

has

dropped

4%

from

49%

in

1986 to 45% in 1990 in total food consumption. The second greatest

change is in milk

consumption,

which increased from 10%

in 1986 to 13% in

1990.

But

on

the

other

hand,

two

trends

can

be

observed

in

the

consumption of meat and fruit and vegetables. From 1986 to 1989,

meat

consumption

increased

from

17%

to

23%

while

that

of

fruit

and vegetables dropped from 24% to 20%. From 1989 to 1990, meat

consumption

dropped

a

little

to

21%,

while

that

of

fruit

and

vegetables increased a little to 21%.

What

has

caused

the

great

changes

in

people

’

s

diet?

The

main

reason, I think, lies in the

improvement in people

’

s income level. With the development of

our

society,

people

are

becoming

richer

and

richer,

which

enables

them

to

purchase

more

nutritious

food

such

as

meat

and

milk.

In

the

meantime,

grain

consumption

in

people

’

s

diet

consequently

dropped.

So from the analysis, we can draw a conclusion that our society is

progressing and people are living a better life than ever before. We

are

now

able

to

purchase

more

delicious

and

nutritious

food,

resulting in an improvement in our health.
