线图在2019年的雅思小作文任务中是“失爱”的（被考察次数少）。2020年秋季（如果可以线下考），说不定就不一样了。

线型图最容易的情况出现了：

1） 仅三条线，不多不复杂，不少不怕没话说。

2） 整体趋势趋同，焦点寥寥仅一个，特别好特别好。

* 其实，阮恩老师一直在讲：看穿图形形式，看到图形的本质，本质直击考察点。

线图的本质就是：

1）数值的变化，于是你要会描述变化。

2）数据之间的比较（不要靠线的位置和线形来体现），于是你要会描述比较。

* 那么，描述比较，我们在讲柱图的时候其实已经讲过了。当然，今天讲线图的时候，还会再讲。描述变化时，怎么处处都在应对打分的四个方面呢？阮恩（章跃）老师以下面的示范来讲解。

破题的两个维度：

1）整体观察三条线，先描述它们的similarity再描述difference（如果有值得描述的difference）。

2）根据线的位置逐条描述，并且通过线的位置来比较每根线条所对应的数值。

但是，阮恩（章跃）老师觉得，其实1）和2）融合起来写，简直完美呀！难不难？有人给你摸出套路就不难：

A Caribbean island is studied in terms of the number of tourists visiting it from 2010 to 2017. The result, illustrated in lines, indicates the island’s growing popularity overall and also in two types of visit. ← 这里（开头处）就对全图的概况做出描述（overview），于是全文整体形成“总—分”结构。

The 8-year period witnessed a remarkable overall growth (1 million to 3.5 million visitors), 句子别急停，善用状语就有机会用单个句子传递更丰富的信息 → not significantly interrupted by the stagnant year of 2016. 很需要一句话来联系表示总数的线和表示具体两种游客的线 → To break the growth of the total down to the two specific groups of visitors, one group increased from 0.7 million to 2 million, and the other from 0.3 to 1.5 million.

接下来的这一段是本文的高能密集段落：

1）关注句子的主语的频繁变化；2）关注表达变化的动词（包括这些动词变形后）；

3）关注表达增涨/下降的词汇；

4）关注主题词汇（landed visitors和cruising visitors比题目中给出的表达简洁许多）；

5）依然关注状语从句的使用。

During the first few years, visitors staying on the island were the obvious higher percentage, and accordingly, a lower percentage of visitors chose to stay on cruise ships. The subsequent years until 2016 saw the gap narrowing gradually, as the number of landed visitors stagnated at 1.5 million for three years and started to slip, and that of cruising visitors had a continued surge. As a surge continued during the years after, cruising visitors accounted for the larger portion, although the number of landed visitors rose again.

这是一个很老套的话题了，新意没有，所以好写。但是内容越好写的题目，全文的连贯性和整体性以及措辞的讲究就越重要。毕竟“水涨船高”是难以克服的打分主观因素。

首先，阮恩（章跃）老师发现了一个引诱烤鸭走题的点：题目立意时的点在于buy和without paying的冲突，于是关键在于付费（或者不付费）。大家千万不要扩大化讨论纸质书和电子书的区别在于种种其它。

There is a question: with almost every book in the world online, what need could there be for the physical ones? If this is not actually an inquiry but a rhetorical statement of an opinion not in favor of physical publications, I can hardly find enough good reasons to disagree with it.

既然要提升措辞，那么请注意：

* 不要依赖陈述句，而可以用问句开头，激发读者（考官）的阅读兴趣。

* inquiry（也可以是enquiry）这个词，熟悉么？是不是可以激活一下。

* a rhetorical statement of an opinion not in favor of physical publications这个词组的构成，有点意思吧。

* I can hardly find enough good reasons to disagree with it这个双重否定的表达，其实不是什么艰深晦涩的表达方式吧。

It is fair for people to see printed books and other publications, such as newspapers and magazines, as uneconomical obsolescence. When the Internet, where the digital version of those publications is provided, makes the books accessible without charge, very few people or only a handful of readers would insist on paying for their reading. Money is the obvious key in this shift. Any argument against human nature, wanting a freebie, would be so indefensible.

* uneconomical obsolescence基于你背过的economical和obsolete，理解一下，词性（对应到词形）的活用而已。

* very few people or xxx would do something是你的老师一定给你讲过的技巧：否定在名词处而不在动词处。这个技巧很常见啊，比如：I have no idea / no money. 或者 No one likes this.

* freebie这个词，怕是口语老师已经教过你。

* indefensible = 站不住脚的，是不是可以少用unreasonable或者implausible啦？

In fact, not only does this switch make economic sense, it also makes sense as another crucial factor changes and improves. The factor is technology. When the Internet was unable to perfectly replicate the authentic reading experience – for example, the visual experience, the flipping of pages, there may have been more people, albeit knowing there is a free option, staying with the printed books that charge. Today, as technology goes beyond providing the same reading experience and enhances the experience to a new level that no printed publications can reach, the free of charge adds to the Internet’s advantage. More and more readers, therefore, are moving to the Internet for the better and economical pleasure. What will happen in the future? Unless printed publications develop new and better tricks to win their clients back, which is foreseeably unlikely, or the Internet does stupid things and hands the clients back, readers will stay online.

* 本段第一句的倒装现象，掌握句型的模型就可以轻松使用。这个句型的模型其实很简单，问你的写作老师哟。* “The factor is technology.” 长句子之间夹入一个短句子。后面的句子的信息密集，需要在此之前有个短句子缓一下，就像爆发之前要定个神蓄个力一样。

* “What will happen in the future?” 的用法道理如上。只是，故意用了一个提问的方式措辞。很巧妙，对不对？

* “when” “as” “unless”都是用来引导状语从句的，是不是状语从句经常用，而且好丰富。

To ask the question again: with almost all books in the world online for free, what need could there be for the physical ones? And that is a rhetorical question.

* 老师讲得这么清楚，你get到了吗？

学到了记得三连呀！
