支招小作文（69） | 流程圖 3： 生命循環(huán)

【非數(shù)據(jù)圖表】：【流程圖】

類型二：生命循環(huán)。（流程圖的另外兩個(gè)類型是：生產(chǎn)工藝、業(yè)務(wù)辦理）

注意：是個(gè)循環(huán)。

# Introduction

Shown in the diagrams is the life cycle of the salmon fish. 第 一句介紹圖的主題。第二句話，總述圖的宏觀特點(diǎn)。As is indicated, the lifespan of the fish is quite long. 

# Body

The initial stage of the lifecycle is in the upper river, whose current is slow. In this stage, eggs are laid among small stones at the bottom of reeds. It takes approximately 5 to 6 months for the eggs to hatch, and the fry – baby salmons – are 3 to 8 centimeters in length. 這句話也可以寫成： The eggs hatch after roughly 5 to 6 months and become the fry – baby salmons, whose length is 3 to 8 centimeters.

* 這個(gè)段落寫作的技巧重點(diǎn)在第 一句和第二句。把“河的上游”單獨(dú)寫一句，避免第二句中介賓短語過多。

The babies then move to the lower river, where the current flows fast, and live there for about four years. The four-year time will witness their growth to the 12-15cm smolt. As the ‘smolt’ stage ends, the fish changes their habitat again, moving to the open sea. During the five years in the open sea, the fish will mature and experience the biggest growth of their lifetime: an adult salmon normally measures 70 to 76 centimeters.

* 這個(gè)段落的學(xué)習(xí)重點(diǎn)無非就是語法和詞匯。

Adult salmons will return to their birthplace – the upper river, and spawn. At this point, a lifecycle ends, and a new cycle starts. 這句話也可以寫成：At this point, the lifecycle starts anew.

* 至此可以總結(jié)一下：

1）詞匯方面主要是：這個(gè)主題內(nèi)的動(dòng)詞，如hatch、mature、spawn。

2）語法句法方面主要是：定語從句的不同形式、狀語的一些形式、同位語現(xiàn)象。

# Conclusion

Overall, the longevity of the fish, spanning almost 10 years, is noteworthy, and the multiple times of habitat change are also noticeable.

* 老章在此再次總述圖的宏觀特點(diǎn)。但是，比開頭段的總述那一句增加了一個(gè)信息點(diǎn)。
