大學英語寫作“圖表描寫”常用句型
描寫圖表不是要考生把圖表中的數據全部寫出來。由于數據只起說明問題的材料作用,因此要對其有所挑選。一個不漏地描述數據,不僅會讓讀者感到你的表達冗長、枯燥,而且會感覺你的表述不得要領,偏離重點。因此,只要把最能說明問題的數據描述出來就可以了。要做到對數據的描寫有針對性,就必須用一句話把圖表中所反映的問題或現象或趨勢歸納出來,盡量放在文章開頭表達清楚,這樣做有一針見血之功能,也便于下面引用數據來闡述。

2.The chart(graph / table / diagram)reveals(shows / suggests)that ……
3.From the statistics(information)given in the table(graph / chart), we can estimate
