图表类
核心考点突破
图表作文就是将数据、图表所包含的信息,转化为表意的说明文字。图表作文通常比较复杂,学生不仅要弄清提示,还要看懂所给的图表和数据。由于这类试题提示内容少,信息点分散,审题时一定要领会作者的出题意图,弄清主题再动笔。高考书面表达图表类的试题常常既要求我们描述或解释图表信息,又要求我们根据图表所提供的信息分析原因或发表议论,甚至对图表所反映的现象提出自己的看法,因此也是对考生思维能力的一种综合考查。
高分秘笈
一、命题特点和应试策略
高考图表作文多以议论文和说明文为主。
根据图表呈现方式的不同,图表作文又可分为柱状图、曲线图、数字表格和饼状图四类。其中,柱状图是指在人们日常生活中,事物的变化情况通常可以用宽度相等的柱状图形来表示,柱状图的高度差别用来说明事物的动态发展趋势,同时要注意图例说明和坐标刻度所提示的信息。柱状图是高中英语课本中常见的图形,要求学生通过柱状图中的数据和提示内容写一篇短文,属于比较、对照类。也可根据提示写成议论文。曲线图常用来表示事物的变化趋势。常分为带时间参照和不带时间参照两种。曲线图的特点是信息集中,一目了然。数字表格是以表格形式将统计的数据或被说明的事物直接用表格形式体现出来,即统计表。饼状图则是以圆内扇形的大小表示总体内部结构的变化。
图表类作文常采用以下三个步骤:
1.开门见山,点明主题。
点明图表所反映的主题或问卷、民意调查的结果;或点明你要展开阐述的话题。
2.呈现数据,分析原因。
呈现调查所得数据、结果,阐明必要的理由或原因;或分析数据间的主要差异及趋势。要特别注意层次。
3.归纳总结或发表评论。
此外,写作时还要注意:(1)图表和数据内容不必全部描述;善于抓住总的规律、趋势,归纳增减率;过去特定的时间用过去时,经常出现的情况或自己的评述用一般现在时;(2)切忌写成“填表题”,“一对一直译”,“句式单一”,遗漏“间接要点”,应巧妙组合信息。
