表格(动静结合图)三个国家不同时间的high speed train track的长度
| The length of high speed tram track (kilometers) | |||
| Country | 1990 | 2010 | 2020 |
| China | 0 | 5800 | 13400 |
| France | 700 | 2600 | 3900 |
| Japan | 1200 | 2500 | 3600 |
考题分析
正如之前的下半年考试所预测的，小作文动静结合图在所有图表中出现比例最高，而且除柱形图和线形图之外，表格也是表现动静态的最佳手段之一。本次考生们有福了，尽管这张表格图是一张同时带有过去和未来时间的数据图表，考生们需注意在过去时态和未来时态中进行切换，不过就整体的数据变化和数据量而言，并不会给大家造成很大的现场压力，下面让我们来看下全文的整体写作思路：
| 结构 | 内容 |
| 开头段 | 改写topic， 并注意时态的变化。 |
| 中间段 | 第一段- 对1990年的三国数据进行大小及倍数的静态比较（过去时态） |
| 第二段- 对1990-2010年的各国变化进行趋势变化的动态描写，注意合并同类项（过去时态） | |
| 第三段- 对2020年的各国最终变化进行趋势变化的动态描写，注意比较近似值和极值（未来时态） | |
| 结尾段 | 总结各国动态趋势并重申突出最大的变化。 |
1)静态比较词汇【对数量、年份进行多次同义替换】
| “占”的表达 | 百分比的表达 | 时间的表达 | 如何修饰数字 |

大作文
Topic:
Some people think that the environmental problems are too big for individuals to solve. Others, however, believe that the problems cannot be solved if individuals do not take some actions. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
有些人认为环保问题对个人而言太大，其他人认为个人可以做点事，讨论双方观点并给出你的想法。
考题分析
以12%的出题比例展现，环境类在上半年出现了自由交通、减少燃料使用以及偏远地区能源这些话题，本次以环保(Individual-Government Conflict)形态出现，经过审题后瞬间明确了这道题的题眼主要在个人环保和政府统筹之间进行双面讨论。下面让我们来看下全文的整体写作思路：
| 结构 | 内容 |
| 开头段 | 改写topic， 并注意Conflict的展现。 |
| 中间段 | 第一段- 对环保的负责情况进行分类讨论，可以分为个人和政府 |
| 第二段- 对个人能对环保做出的努力进行分析和论证 | |
| 第三段- 对政府能在环保中扮演的多维度角色进行分析和论证 | |
| 结尾段 | 总结两方面的各自利弊。 |
下面给大家推荐一个好用的“政府管理环境问题”的8分段落：
ROLE OF GOVERNMENTS IN ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION
Officials have a major role to play in the development, management, and promotion of an environment-friendly country at an international level. They take responsibility for developing, modernizing and managing the protective infrastructure, such as national parks, and establishing the regulatory systems that prevent uncontrollable growth that may further damage the environment. In addition, governments are supposed to act to make it possible for citizens to live in cities with favorable opinions by planning to avoid the bottlenecks that disrupt the life comfort . For example, if pure water apply, air quality or noise control are too inadequate to meet public demand, those affected would be suggested to reschedule a Plan B for better solution alternatives.
