Task 1 -Day 14 IELTS A Graph in the Future


辛达代报考位提醒:到2017年9月11官网没有释放考位,在此提醒广大考生抓紧时间报名,如果暂时没有考位的话可以提交给我们代报,广大考生注意考试时间。


雅思小作文中的图表有时会涉及到未来数据。面对折线图(或者是柱状图),一定要注意表格所涉及的时间。一旦时间弄错,信息就会被曲解,从而导致大失分。

让我们一起看看下面的折线图,思考两个问题,

1、什么是时间轴?

2、要用何种时态?


由图可知,时间轴从2012开始,直至2022结束。

在该图表中,时间轴囊括了过去和将来(当然,也有只含有将来时间的图表)。在这种情况下,你需要小心对待时态的选择。选用适合的过去时态或者将来时态很重要。

以下是图表写作中常用的将来时态的结构:

will + infinitive

is/are expected to + infinitive

is/are predicted to + infinitive

现在让我们再来看看折线图的答案吧!为了区分未来和过去,我们把过去时态用红色标记,而将来时态则用绿色标记。

The line graph shows the past and projected finances for a local authority in New Zealand.

   

The line graph illustrates the financial position of a New Zealand local authority from 2012 to 2022. It is measured in millions of New Zealand dollars.

Overall, it can be seen that while rates revenue and user charges are predicted to increase over the period, borrowings and grants and subsidies will remain much lower.

Rates revenues and user charges will follow a very similar pattern over the time frameRates revenue stood at just under 1.5 billion in 2012, which was the highest of the four criteria. Though they remained stable until 2013they are expected to climb to approximately 2.4 billion dollars in 2022. Like rates revenues, use charges are predicted to continuously increase.  They began the period at 1 billion and will stand at twice this level by 2022.

Borrowings, on the other hand, are expected to show considerable fluctuation. Although having initially increased, they will drop to a low of 600 million in 2016, before reaching a peak of just under 1.5 billion in 2020. Borrowings will finish the period at around the same level that they began. Grant and subsidies were the lowest of the four, at under 500 million in 2012Despite moving up to exceed borrowing briefly in 2016, this low level will continue until 2022.
