【文章內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介】 here were no figures given for male parttime workers, but female parttimers had forty hours of leisure time, only slightly more than women in fulltime employment, perhaps reflecting their work in the home.In the unemployed and retired categories, leisure time showed an increase for both sexes, as might have been expected. Here too, men enjoyed more leisure time – over eight hours, pared with seventy hours for women, perhaps once again reflecting the fact that women spend more time working in the home than men.Lastly, housewives enjoyed approximately fiftyfour hours of leisure, on average. There were no figures given for househusbands! Overall, the chart demonstrates that in the categories for which statistics on male leisure time were available, men enjoyed at least ten hours of extra leisure time.分析： 題目The chart below shows the amount of leisure time enjoyed by men and women of different employment status.? 簡(jiǎn)單的題目，但是把文章的三個(gè)指標(biāo)都給談到了，時(shí)間 the amount of leisure time, 性別 by men and women，工作種類(lèi) of different employment status第一段The chart shows the number of hours enjoyed by men and women in a typical week in 1998 – 9, according to gender and employment status.? 典型的通過(guò)改寫(xiě)題目，提示圖表的內(nèi)容? 看作者是如何談?wù)撊齻€(gè)指標(biāo)的，時(shí)間the number of hours, 性別men and women, 工作種類(lèi)according to genderand employment status（再次談到了性別），另外補(bǔ)充說(shuō)明了圖形標(biāo)題的一點(diǎn)內(nèi)容in a typical week in 1998 – 9.第二段Among those employed fulltime, men on average had fifty hours of leisure, whereas women had approximately thirtyseven hours.? 用一個(gè)whereas連詞，對(duì)比說(shuō)明了men和women的時(shí)間情形，? 工作組別信息：among those employed fulltime? 性別信息： men, women? 時(shí)間信息： had fifty hours of leisure, had thirtyseven hours? 表示平均 on average, 表示大約 approximatelyThere were no figures given for male parttime workers, but female parttimers had forty hours of leisure time, only slightly more than women in fulltime employment, perhaps reflecting their work in the home.? 這句話(huà)說(shuō)明了兩點(diǎn)內(nèi)容，第一是parttime workers的情況，第二是與fulltime employment作了比較? 工作組別和性別信息：for male parttime workers, female parttimers? 時(shí)間信息：There were no figures given (表示缺失值)，had forty hours of leisure time? 比較parttime和fulltime婦女的休息時(shí)間 （Female parttimers had）only slightly more than women in fulltime? employment, 注意短語(yǔ)的邏輯主語(yǔ)，還有必須注意parttime和fulltime婦女的不同表示法? 適度的評(píng)價(jià)，perhaps reflecting their work in the home, 這句其邏輯主語(yǔ)為前面那句only slight more than women? in fulltime employment，這句話(huà)的含義是“雖然為parttime females, 但是相應(yīng)的承擔(dān)了更多的家務(wù)，所以休息時(shí)間只? 是比f(wàn)ulltime females多那么一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)”? 很多同學(xué)爭(zhēng)論需不需要發(fā)表議論，準(zhǔn)確的說(shuō)應(yīng)當(dāng)是就圖論圖，不作評(píng)價(jià)，但是這個(gè)原則也不是死的，根據(jù)圖形的特征，作一點(diǎn)適當(dāng)?shù)脑u(píng)論也是可以的，這里就是“適度評(píng)價(jià)”第三段In the unemployed and retired categories, leisure time showed an increase for both sexes, as might have been expected.? 這句將unemployed and retired categories這兩個(gè)組和其他組別比較的特征做了說(shuō)明，圖上也很明顯，這兩組人的leisure time非常多，? as might have been expected, as為代詞，指代前面這句話(huà)內(nèi)容，意思為“正如”；這是個(gè)插入語(yǔ)，經(jīng)常用到Here too, men enjoyed more leisure time – over eight hours, pared with seventy hours for women, perhaps once again reflecting the fact that women spend more time working in the home than men.? 說(shuō)明了men和women的比較，比較詞為pared with? (Eight hours are) pared with seventy hours, 注意比較的成分應(yīng)當(dāng)是對(duì)等的，時(shí)間對(duì)應(yīng)時(shí)間，pare這個(gè)詞在雅思寫(xiě)作中以被動(dòng)態(tài)比較常見(jiàn)，很少出現(xiàn)paring with的形式，切記第四段Lastly, housewives enjoyed approximately fiftyfour hours of leisure, on average. There were no figures given for househusbands!? 說(shuō)明了housewives的leisure time，很明顯，househusbands為缺失值Overall, the chart demonstrates that in the categories for which statistics on male leisure time were available, men enjoyed at least ten hours of extra leisure time.? Overall 代表是文章的總結(jié)句，但是作者從另外一個(gè)邏輯角度，即按照總體性別來(lái)看，men比women的leisure time要多，這就說(shuō)明了應(yīng)當(dāng)按照清晰的邏輯順序，把文章中各個(gè)信息都需要描述詞匯句型積累 對(duì)比說(shuō)明兩個(gè)事物的對(duì)比說(shuō)明，這是必考內(nèi)容之一，所采用的方法有? 采用連詞while, whereas? 還可以用pared with過(guò)去分詞短語(yǔ)來(lái)補(bǔ)充說(shuō)明對(duì)比關(guān)系? 還有一種就是用比較句型 more…than, n
