　　1.縱向比較：

　　題目：The table below gives information about changes in modes of travel in England between 1985 and 2000.Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.Write at least 150 words.　　

　　范文： As can be seen from the table, walk and certain short-distance transportation, such as cycled and local bus tend to be less preferred. Of these, the local bus experienced the most dramatic decrease, from 429 miles to 274 miles within the 15-years period.

　　By contrast, the long distance vehicle enjoyed a significant increase over the period, spanning from 1985 to 2000, although there exists some differences. To be more specific, the number of miles that car traveled was 3,199 in 1985 and rose by 50% to 4,806 in the subsequent years. The figure by long distance bus more than doubled during the same period (54 miles vs.124 miles), while the miles by taxi trebled which were 13 miles and 42 miles respectively. Likewise, the use of other, unspecified, forms of transport also increased.

　　Overall, there is a considerable increase in total miles by all modes of transportation, compared with the data (4,740 miles) in 1985, with the increased use of cars possibly accounting for almost all of that increase.

　　2.橫向比較：

　　題目：The table shows the number of foreign visitors (in millions) to 7 countries. Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information shown below. You should write at least 150 words.

　　范文： (Introduction)The table shows the total number of visitors to seven countries around the world and details the number of those visitors who came from the UK and the USA. Certain patterns are evident from these figures.

　　(Comparison1)Canada received more than twice as many visitors as Mexico, yet the percentage of visitors to those countries from the USA was about the same, 80%. 12 million Americans visited Canada while 5.5 million visited Mexico. British visitors to these two countries were much fewer in number, with 0.6 million visiting Canada and 0.1 million visiting Mexico.

　　(Comparison2)Australia had half as many visitors as Thailand (3 million vs 6 million), but the number of visitors to those countries from the UK and the USA was the same, 0.3 million.

　　(Comparison3)France and Ireland received more visitors from the UK (7.4 million and 2.4 million respectively) than from the USA. France had a higher total number of visitors than any of the other countries on the list. Over half of Ireland’s visitors came from the UK. Italy received 20 million visitors, of which 1.2 million were from the UK and 1.8 million were from the USA.

　　(Conclusion) Although the table shows a limited number of countries, it can be seen that British and American people tend to visit those countries nearest geographically. However, the relationship is not definitive.
