A checklist for part 1 graphs, charts and tables

In task 1 it is important that you accurately describe the information from the diagram so you don’t lose marks under Task Response. The difficulty is to decide what is the key information as there is often a lot of data to process. One way of thinking about this, is to ask yourself if someone could draw the chart and graph from the information in your report. This is not easy to do and so to help you, you will find below a 8 point checklist, an exercise and a practice suggestion.

雅思作文Checklist

Here is my 8 point checklist to help you include the relevant details. I suggest you use it to check your own work: you should be able to answer “yes”to all the questions.

1. Type of diagram 图表类型

Have you correctly identified whether it is a bar chart/line graph/pie chart/flow chart/table?

有没有说清楚这个一个什么样的图表----柱状图?线图?饼图?还是流程图?

2. The correct tense 时态

Have you correctly identified whether the data in the chart relates to past time, a current state of affairs or a future prediction? This includes not just using the correct tenses but also including specific times in your report.

有没有运用正确的时态呢?要记住，不止要用对时态，还要再小作文中写清具体的时间!

3. The subjects 对象

Have you included all the subjects that are referred to in the diagram? Even if you have a bar chart ortable naming 8 different countries for example, you still need to refer to them all in your report.

所有图表中所提到的对象都写进小作文了吗?如果图表里提到8个国家，全部都要写进去哦~

4. Units

Have you included references to the units? These may be units of time (months/years etc), money (millions of ￡) or simple numbers (10,000s). To do this, you need to read the x and y axes carefully.

单位写清楚了吗?X轴和Y轴上的单位都要看清楚哦~

5. Highs and lows/Beginnings and ends/Biggest and smallest

Have you included the extremes shown in the diagram? In nearly all charts and graphs these are key features to include as they give the reader a frame for understanding the chart or graph. When there is a lot of data, you may not include every extreme so you need to use your judgement.

文中有重要信息点了吗?最高点、最低点、起点、终点、最多的、最少的一定要写进去!

6. Patterns and trends 模式和趋势

Have you noted any patterns?

In dynamic charts (when there is a change in time), it is nearly always important to note whether the general trend is upwards or downwards.

在一个有变化的图表里，整体趋势如何，上升?下降?要写清~

In static charts (when there is only one time frame), it can be important to note patterns. For example, if you look at my sample report on holiday destinations, you will see that I group England, Scotland and Wales together and note that they have a similar pattern.

7. Exceptions

Is there anything in the chart that is completely different to the general pattern? If so, this too is very likely to be a key detail that needs to be noted.

除了常规方式外的东西也要写到，就是图表中的“例外”。

8. Ordering information排序

Have you ordered the information in a logical way? It is no good putting all the right information in if the keys points are hidden away. This can happen if you follow the order of the chart without thinking. Possible logical ways of ordering the report include:

从图表中选择的信息，又按照合理的逻辑排列好顺序吗?

常见的逻辑顺序有：

start with the most significant detail

从最重要的细节开始说起

start with the general pattern, then note exceptions

从一般模式说起，然后注明有例外

group items that are similar

写一组里面有相似性的东西

move from the largest to the smallest

从最大值写到最小值

move from the first in time to the last in time

从时间起点写到时间终点
