The chart
below shows the amount spent on six consumer goods
in for
European countries.
Write a report for a university lecture
describing the information shown below.
The chart shows that
Britain, among the four European countries listed,
has spent
most heavily on the range of
consumer goods included. In every case, British
spending is considerably higher than
that of other countries; only in the case of
tennis
racquets does another country,
Italy, come close.
In contrast, Germany
is generally the lowest spender. This is most
evident in
photographic film, where
Germany spends much less than Britain. Germany
only
spends more than another country,
France, in two cases: tennis racquets and
perfumes.
Meanwhile, France
and Italy generally maintain middle positions,
averaging
approximately similar
spending overall. Specifically, France spends more
on CDs and
photographic film but less
on tennis racquets than Italy does. Italy’s
spending on
personal stereos is only
marginally greater than that of France, while
spending on
toys is equal between the
two.
It is clear from the data given
that there are some significant differences in
spending
habits within Europe.

第一段
The chart shows that Britain, among the
four European countries listed, has
spent most heavily on the range of
consumer goods included.
?
点明了英国消费冠军的地位
?
the range of
consumer goods
其中的
the range
of
表示
“
一系列的
”
，由于雅思小
作文经常出现多个物品或人群的比较，
所以这个表达很有用
?
the four countries
listed
; consumer goods
included
其中的
listed, included
为过
去分词作后置定语，但是这两个词是充数的，没有也无妨，不过这两个词雅思图
表经常用到
In every
case, British spending is considerably higher than
that of other
countries; only in the
case of tennis racquets does another country,
Italy, come
close.
?
具体到
6
种消费品，只是这个地方的描述和图形不太精确，仔细看看，应当是
stereos
和法国与德国齐平，
tennis
racquets
越高于意大利，当然用
come
close
是正确的。
?
In every case;
in the case of tennis
racquets
其中的
case [c]
< br>代指物品，与
item
类似
?
Only in the
case of tennis request does another country come
close.
这句由于有
only
居
于句首，倒装
第二段
In contrast,
Germany is generally the lowest spender.
?
In
contrast
引出了消费乌龟德国，特别注意，谈英国的时候
spend
用的是谓语动
词形式，
h
ave spent on sth,
谈德国时
spend<
/p>
为名词形式
spender
消费者，可
见
同一意思不同词性的变化会使句型多样化，这个技巧一定要掌握
This is most evident in photographic
film, where Germany spends much less
than Britain.
?
具体说明
the lowest spender, This
is most evident
这是个表示进一步说明的句型
Germany only spends more than another
country, France, in two cases: tennis
racquets and perfumes.
?
此处表示比较
A spend more than B,
还可以用
compared
to
表达，
Germany
spends more on tennis racquets and
perfumes, compared to France.
第三段
Meanwhile,
France and Italy generally maintain middle
positions, averaging
approximately
similar spending overall.
?
meanwhile
引出了消费居中派
意大利和法国，
（
France
and Italy are
）
averaging
similar spending
指出了各项的消费比较均衡，
average [vt]
均摊
Specifically,
France spends more on CDs and photographic film
but less on
tennis racquets than Italy
does. Italy’s spending on personal stereos is only
marginally greater than that of France,
while spending on toys is equal between
the two.
?
这两句是对意大利和法国各项的比
较，意大利超过法国的项目有
stereos, tennis,
perfume;
意大利与法国齐平的项目有
toys
；意大利低于法国的项目有
film, CDs.
?
注意一下表示消费的两种句型
?
France spends
more on… than Italy does.
spend
为谓语动词
?
Italy’s
spending on… is greater than that of France.
spending
为名词作主语
第四段
It is clear from the data given that
there are some significant differences in
spending habits within
Europe.
?
总结一句，
some significant differ
ences
老一套了，图表表现的含义很多都是
differe
nce.
词汇句型积累
任何一个作文（包括雅思大小作文）其中的都有一个核心的词
，这个核心的词肯定将在
文中反复出现，如文章中的
spend
spend [vt]
用作谓语动词
?
Britain has
spent most heavily on sth

过去分词作定语
