　　事情是这样的。众所周知，小作文考试是以数据类图表为主的。而在五种数据类图表里面，柱状图常年以来都是一枝独秀。纵观历史数据，每年柱状图都会考到二十个上下。刚刚过去的2019年，柱状图更是全年发力，和考生们见面二十四次。正所谓得柱状图者得天下也。

　　实，柱状图大体上分类三类，这三类都掌握了的话，那么数据型图表就全在掌控之中了。

　　Part 1长线图

　　看这个名字大家不要误会。原本是讲解柱状图，怎么突然开始扯到线图了呢?其实，很多柱状图本身就是线图，而且是几条长线。例如下图：

　　定睛观瞧，不难发现，这就是三线图。而且所有的写作框架、模式与线图写法几乎相同。大家只要认真参考下面的考官例文自然可以掌握其中奥秘。

　　(An example of a very good answer from C9 T2)

　　The chart shows the time spent by UK residents on different types of telephone calls between 1995 and 2002.

　　Local fixed line calls were the highest throughout the period, rising from 72 billion minutes in 1995 to just under 90 billion in 1998. After peaking at 90 billion the following year, these calls had fallen back to the 1995 figure by 2002.

　　National and international fixed line calls grew steadily from 38 billion to 61 billion at the end of the period in question, though the growth slowed over the last two years.

　　There was a dramatic increase in mobile calls from 2 billion to 46 billion minutes. This rise was particularly noticeable between 1999 and 2002, during which time the use of mobile phone tripled.

　　To sum up, although local fixed line calls were still the most popular in 2002, the gap between the three categories had narrowed considerably over the second half of the period in question.

　　如此一来，在考场中各位如果遇到线图也可以迎刃而解了。
