1、四级图表作文写作技巧1. 定义图表作文是四（六）级考试中常见，而且被认为是一种较难的作文形式。图表作文就是把非文字信息（通常为各种图表表示的数字信息等）转换成文字信息的一种作文。它要求我们用文字来描述非文字性的图表或对图表显示的关系作解释说明。 2. 类别表作文：表格形式；图作文： 饼形图 、曲线图 和柱形图 3. 各自特点表格（Table）可以使大量数据系统化，便于阅读、比较。 用表格表达的信息具体准确，而且表格中的各项均按一定规律排列。阅读表格时要注意找出表格中各个项目的相互关系，表格中各个项目的变化规律。Changes in Chinese Peoples Diet（1）饼状图作文饼状图
2、（Pie chart）也称为圆形图或圆面分割图。饼状图因为比较形象和直观，各部分空间大小差别容易分辨，所以常用来表示总量和各分量之间的百分比关系。整个圆表示总量，楔形块表示分量。有时饼状图还有数值表，两者结合可把各分量表示得更准确、清楚。 Changes in Chinese Professions 1980 1999Agriculture 68% Service 5% Manufacture 27% Agriculture 38% Service 22% Manufacture 40%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
3、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。 柱形图（Bar graph）也称为条形图或圆柱图。柱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。柱形图主要用来表示：1）同一项目在不同时间的量；2）同一时间不同项目的量。阅读柱形图时，要先看图例，再看横轴、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。 4. 出题形式图表作文一般在题目中给出作文的标题和一个或几个统计表格、圆
