支招小作文（114） | 表格 交通里程

【圖表形式：表格】

考核點：1. 對比不同時間，數(shù)值前后的變化; 2. 同一時間（年份），數(shù)值大小比較（突出最值）

首段：概述表格大致內(nèi)容—對比不同時間段（前后兩個年份-2000 VS 1985），前后數(shù)值的變化。

The table illustrates how different modes of travel changed in England in two different years: 1985 and 2000. 

主體段1: 數(shù)值增加組（car, other, train, long distance bus, taxi）, 依次對比各項的數(shù)值增長幅度。

Car, the most prevalent means of transport, 【同位語，解釋說明作用，此處概括出car的特征，兩個年份（1985和2000）中的值】was the most noticeable, as the average distance by this mode per person per year showed a marked increment of around 1,600 miles in 2000 compared with that in 1985. 【原因狀語從句：as + …】Similarly, there was a moderate growth in the distance covered by other mode of transport in 2000 when the figure reached 585 miles. 【定語從句】Meanwhile, slight rises could also be observed in the average distance of trips by taxi, long distance bus and train, all of which grew by fewer than 100 miles. 【定語從句】

詞匯使用：

prevalent：adj. 普遍的

increment：n. 增加

cover：v. 走過（distance）

主體段 2: 數(shù)值減少組（local bus, walking, bicycle）, 在該段中同樣地細(xì)化各項的變化（減少）幅度。

The remaining modes of transport, on the other hand, experienced several drops in terms of the average distance. More precisely, dramatic shrinkage could be found in people’s preference for taking local bus, with the figure declining steeply from 429 miles to 274 miles. 【獨立主格結(jié)構(gòu)】 Also, the year of 2000 witnessed marginal decreases in the numbers of walkers and cyclists.

詞匯使用：

shrinkage：n. 減少

steeply：adv. 急劇地

marginal：adj. 微小的

walkers and cyclists: 詞匯替換，分別對應(yīng)表格中“walking”和“bicycle”，詞匯使用背后的含義是“這兩種出行方式里程數(shù)的減少，說明選取兩者的人數(shù)縮減”。

結(jié)尾：總結(jié)—各類型的變化差異（明顯）+ 數(shù)值總量變化（增加）

Overall，people’s preference for various modes of transport varied enormously from 1985 to 2000, and the overall distance showed a remarkable rise.
