　　小作文

　　地图题

　　The government is planning to build bridge(s) to connect X Town and Y Town. Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

　　地图题范文

　　Plan A: build a bridge across M River

　　Advantages: low cost

　　Disadvantages: far from the two town centres

　　Plan B: build two bridges to connect X town, Y town with N Island respectively.

　　Advantages: low cost, near the two town centres

　　Disadvantages: environment effect, far from the T airport

　　Plan C: build an underwater tunnel

　　Advantages: near the two town centres, near the T airport

　　Disadvantages: very high cost

　　This picture shows the three possible plans for building a bridge across X Town and Y Town.

　　In Plan A, the bridge is located at the point with the shortest distance between X and Y towns. Its obvious advantage is the low cost, since the bridge built is the shortest cunong the three plans. However, the most unfavorable factor is that the bridge is so far away from the two town centres that people have to spend much time to go to the opposite town.

　　Bridges in Plan B will connect X Town and Y Town respectively to N Island. On one hand, it is at low cost and near the town centres at the same time. 0n other hand, given that N Island has forests and wild animals on it, building bridges there will definitely have negative effects on the local environment.

　　Plan C is proposed to build an underwater tunnel beneath two town centres. This plan can solve the problem of Plan A, since it is much close to two town centres as well as the airport in Y town. Nevertheless, building an underground tunnel costs much higher than building a bridge.

　　The bar chart shows the petroleum production and consumption among 7 regions in 2002. Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information shown below.

　　柱图题范文

　　The column graph compares the tremendous difference among 7 regions in petroleum production and consumption in 2002.

　　According to the graph, four regions—Australia, Asia, the US, and Europe-consumed more petroleum than they produced. The other regions—Latin America, Africa, and the Middle East—produced more petroleum than they consumed. Among them, the production of Latin America was only slightly over its need. The petroleum production of Africa doubled its consumption.

　　We can also see from the graph that the Middle East was the highest one in production (around 23 million barrels per day). The petroleum production of Europe and the US ranked the second and the third respectively, while Australia and Asia produced the least among the seven regions, with no more than 5 million barrels per day. However, the consumption of Europe and US ranked the first and the second respectively.

　　It seems that there was a big imbalance between petroleum production and consumption among the regions.
