The table provides information about the favored tourist destinations in the city of Llorente of different age groups．Each figure for destinations shows the percentage of tourists who visited the destinations on their last holiday ．There are four age groups—twenties ，thirties ， forties ，and over 50-year-old group．

（点明表格提供不同年龄段所喜欢的旅游地点的信息。）

The most favored destination for all age groups was shopping

centres ．The percentage of tourists who visited there was more than 80％, and 95％ of tourists of the forties group visited there. The percentages of tourists who vislted art galleries，zoos ，and museums increased as the the age of tourists increased. For example，only 21％ of people in the twenties visited art galleries，however ，81％ of the oldest age group visited there．On the other hand，the percentages of tourists who visited nightclubs ， discotheques ，and cinemas／theatres decreased as the age increased ．For example，87％of tourists in twenties visited discotheques，however ，only 5％ of the oldest age group did so.

（按大家都喜欢的地点—老年人喜欢的地点—年轻人喜欢的地点这个逻辑顺序进行描述；用on the other hand, for example 等连接词来串联句子。）

To sum up，favored destinations were different for each age group，however ，almost all tourists visited shopping centers．(176 words) （总结得出结论。）

4.5.5 流程图

4.5.5.1 解题关键

流程图flow charts是一个难点。流程图的题目基本不会重复；流程图的词汇随着图表不同而变化，很少出现重复的词汇。幸运的是，流程图考题次数并不多，一年大概三到五次，主要集中在年初年末三个月。

流程图特点：

² 1流程图基本不会出现数据，文字信息占主要地位；

² 2流程图以描述为主，比较的机会比图表题少；

² 3流程图中出现的信息都需要描述，而普通图表则不需要描述每一个数据；

² 4流程图的时态多比较单一，主要用一般现在时；

² 5流程图的分段比较灵活，只要不同阶段之间的差距很明显，就可以另起一段。

描述流程五大步

F 1首先说明该过程是做什么工作的，目的是什么。

F 2准备工作。

F 3按时间／过程先后描述。

F 4结果。

F 5简单总结(可有可无) 。

描述一个实物／器具的工作过程

F 1实物是什么，做什么用的。

F 2基本结构。

F 3工作过程。

F 4简单总结。

扩充内容的关键：阶段间进行比较

很多烤鸭们在流程图写作中经常遇到字数不够的问题，这是由于描述过程太平铺直叙。此时要注意各个阶段的比较。

例4-33：In two weeks，the fry will grow up to two inches long．

解析：原句过于简单，可以增加鱼苗和前一阶段的比较。

改正：In two weeks, the fry will grow up to two inches long, more than twice longer than it was when hatched．

大意：在两周的时间内，鱼苗长到了两英寸，比刚孵化的时候长两倍还要多。

例4-34：In the second step，workers will rinse bottle glass of any colour．

解析：原句过于简单，可以增加一点说明，譬如说关于第二阶段产生的变化和结果。

改正：In the second step，workers will rinse bottle glass of any colour．While the glass in the first phase is possibly life-threatening and contaminated，the glass is now hygeian and ready for the next stage of the recycling process．

大意：在第二步，工作人员会清洗各种颜色的玻璃。第一阶段的玻璃可能是危害健康并被污染的，而这一阶段的玻璃是卫生的，可以为循环过程的下一步做准备。

例4-35：In the second phase of urban sprawl，land developers start to build a residential area．

解析：原句过于简单，可以增加一点说明，譬如说关于第二阶段的功能和目的。

改正： In the second phase of urban sprawl，land developers start to build a residential area．It is to serve the needs of those people working in those office blocks and factories built in the first phase ．

大意：在城市扩张的第二阶段，土地开发商开始建造居民区。这是为了满足在第一阶段所建

办公楼和工厂里工作的人们的需要。
