小作文

The chart shows the percentage of time working adults spent the day on different activities in a particular country in 1958 and 2008.

图表类型：饼图（两幅饼）

写作指导：

1. 注意总体情况的描述

2. 数据分类方法：两个不同时间段的饼的写法有两种

方法一：按照上升，下降，不变/平稳来分类

方法二：先写1958的数据（大小比较），再写2008（可以按照上升，下降来写）

参考范文:

The two pie charts show how daily schedule of working adults in one country changes in two specific years: 1958 and 2008. Overall, people spent more time on working but less on sleeping, and they relaxed at home more than went out over time.

In 1958, almost one third of the day was spent on working (33%), and marginally less time was on sleeping (32%). Going out with friends and family was then a common pastime, taking up 19%. In contrast, the other activities combined, including relaxing at home, playing sports (or other hobbies) and travel to work, just accounted for 16%.

In 2008, working and sleeping together still constituted almost two thirds of the day, but the previous balance no longer held. While the share of the former rose considerably to 42%, the latter shrank to 25%. In terms of recreational activities, hanging out with friends or family (6%) was replaced by relaxing at home (13%). In addition, the time they spent on the road climbed to 8%, surpassing that on sports playing which remained unchanged at 6%.

In conclusion, during these years, working took more time of the day, and the popularity of indoor relaxation increased over time.

大作文

题型类别：议论类（多大程度上同意）

参考思路：同意：1. 环境污染； 2. 促进相关技术进步和新能源开发

          不同意：1. 影响部分国家经济和发展； 2. 国家之间很难协调

参考范文：

For centuries, human society has been blessed with the exploitation of fossil fuels like oil as it unprecedentedly advances industrial production. However, gradually, people become aware that the blessing could turn out to be a "curse" since the consequent pollution has been seriously endangering our existence. Personally, I am convinced that reduction of fossil fuel consumption must be promoted and enforced around the world.

The sophisticated technology like oil drilling and oil or coal economy in many parts of the world seem to be so alluring that some people can hardly give up fossil fuels. They harbor the view that fossil fuels are still in abundance, and the related facilities and techniques for obtaining and processing the raw materials like crude oil are so developed that the cost of producing energy is at a historically low level. For these reasons, countries relying heavily on oil economy and well-known energy companies tend to be particularly resistant towards the idea of giving up the fuels. However, for me, these views could hardly be justified.

Firstly, the economic benefits are quite likely to be offset by the huge cost of improving the polluted environment. Burning coal, for instance, may be relatively economical compared with using alternative energy like solar power. Nevertheless, the governments' efforts on reducing pollutants like PM2.5 could entail more spending.

Furthermore, some countries may financially benefit from production of the oil or other fossil fuels, and many developing countries might argue that fossil-fuel-based industrialization weigh more than protection of the environment. However, the air pollution and the consequent climate change are the threats to be confronted by all human beings. In other words, in the face of deteriorating environment, the enormous wealth some countries accumulate and the economic progress others achieve may lose their charm. After all, to survive and flourish on a clean planet is our ultimate goal.

Finally, as long as all the countries enforce the reduction of fossil fuel consumption, the technology for better utilizing the fuels and exploration of renewable, alternative resources could be advances, finally proving us a "clean new world".

In conclusion, despite obstacles, for the benefits of the whole world and to bring forth improved technology and cleaner energy sources, countries around must collaborate to reduce fossil fuel consumption.
