2、:line chart / curve diagram 饼状图:pie chart 表格图:table 流程图或过程图:flow chart / sequence diagram 程序图:processing/procedures diagram,5,两种态势,动态,运动的(曲线图与柱状图)切入点在于描述趋势 静态,静止的(饼状图与表格)切入点在于关注分配比例,6,八种运动趋势,上升,增加 下降,减少 保持平稳 上升后保持平稳 下降后保持平稳 复苏 波动 达到顶峰,7,上升, 下降,词: rise, raise,climb,increase,jump, go up,ascend,mount,a
3、ggrandize 例子: 人口上升: the number of population increased/ascended/mounted.,词: fall, drop, decrease, descend, decline 例子: 人口减少: the number of population decreased/ declined .,8,保持平稳,词: stay stable,remain steady 例子: 人口数量保持平稳 : the number of population stayed / remained stable.,9,上升后保持平稳,词: 上升 + level of
4、f 例子: 人口上升后保持平稳: The number of population mounted and leveled off .,10,下降后保持平稳,词: 下降 + bottom out 例子: 人口下降后保持平稳:the number of population decreased and bottomed out.,11,复苏,词: recover 例子: 人口下降后复苏: The number of population decreased and recovered.,12,波动,词: fluctuate 例子 人口波动: The number of population fl
5、uctuated.,13,达到顶峰(低谷),词: peak,reach its summit,reach its zenith (reach the bottom) 举例: 人口到达了顶峰: The number of population peaked/ reached its summit/ reached its zenith.,14,两种程度,缓慢,轻微gradually,smoothly,steadily,slightly 陡然,大幅度 dramatically,sharply,considerably,appreciably,greatly 1.人口大幅度攀升: number of
6、 population mounted dramatically. 2.人口轻微下降: number of population decreased slightly. 3.人口逐渐下降: number of population decreased gradually.,15,运动和数据的连接,1、 稳定和极值后面需要使用的是at. remain steady, stay stable, level off; bottom out;peak,reach its peak, reach its zenith;,16,1.人口在500万上保持平稳:the number of population
7、 remained steady at 5 million. 2. 人口在800万时到达了顶峰: the number of population peaked at 8 million. 3. 下降后,人口在400万保持平稳:after decreasing, number of population bottomed out at 4 million. 4. 上升后,人口在700万保持平稳: after mounting, number of population leveled off at 7 million.,17,2、上升/下降后面使用to (到) 和by (了),increase
8、 to (by), decrease to (by) 举例: 1. 人口下降到200万: The number of population decreased to 2 million. 2. 人口上升了500万: The number of population increased by 5 million.,18,3、复苏后面需要使用的是from,recover from 举例: 人口在200万时开始复苏: The number of population recovered from 2 million.,19,4、波动后面需要连接between and,fluctuate between and 举例:人口在2和100亿之间波动: The number of population fluctuated between 2 and 10 billion. (那俩人是Adam和Eve),20,练习,最近5年来中国人口的出生率已经大大下降。 最近10年来印度人口飞速增长。 这个工厂生产的彩电已由1986年的5000台增加到1990年的21000台。 这个学校的教职工人数已减少到700人。,21,
