雅思小作文地图题讲解

1、一个地图题的开头：The map about the development of the village sufficiently illustrates the way of progress of this area. In this map, we can find four main sectors and two main roads intersected with one railway and one motor way. It seems the overall development of this village has strong connection with t

2、he construction of roads.雅思小作文地图题词汇Part 1：表时间流程图和地图题中都可能涉及时间表达。流程题中，使用较多的是过程时长的表述，而地图题的时间使用则体现为地理变迁的时间变化。一般在方位选址图题中较少出现。确切的时间指引，既增加文章的自然和连贯度，也能体现行文的精确性。常见表示时间的词：in few hours几小时during the period of 在期间after 10 days 10天后fromto 从到between and 在之间over theyear period在一个年期间5 years before 5年前a decade earlie

3、r几十年前from that moment on从那时起after a while一会since自从since then自从finally最后over the subsequent years近连续几年例句：The process lasts for up to 7 days and the products are finally distributed to customers.Part 2：表空间空间表达地图题出现概率较高，但流程图也偶尔出现。空间应该是地图题解题关键和主要特点。许多考生容易误把地图题的空间位置写成上下左右位置，这是失分点非常大的地方。朗阁海外考试研究中心的专家们提示烤鸭

4、，空间表达时需要注意区分：在空间状语里，in表内部，on表接壤，to表分开。常用的空间词：lies 靠近is located 坐落is situated in 位于across 交叉parallel 平行intersect 交点on the side of the 面on both sides of 两边just off 靠近on the opposite side 在另一边on the border 在边缘上center/middle/central area 中间near/next to/close to/adjacent to 靠近例句：It lies 450 kilometers fr

5、om the nearest city, which is on the north side of the KK mountain.Part 3：表顺序表顺序的使用在流程图中是典型，表顺序的关联词能够使描述的流程更加清晰，结构条理明显。就如我们常用的产品安装说明一样，标明了1、2、3、4步，简洁明了。常见的表顺序的连词如下：开始：first of all, initially, to begin with, in the first place, first, the first stage involves , during, in the first place, Firstly

6、0;其次：second, then, next, also, in the second stage, following this/that, afterwards the first (reason) is, Secondly然后：after that, at the same time, in the meantime, meanwhile, prior to, until, in the third stage, in addition, at the same time, from that moment on, once when最终：finally, lastly, in the

16、 on the eastern side.分析近几年IELTS Writing出现过的地图题，我们可以把地图题分为两大类：一类，静态选址题；一类，动态变迁题。静态选址题，这种题型要求考生对建筑物不同地址的利弊进行比较，多数静态选址题是在两个地址之间的比较，多于两个地址之间的比较会出现的较少。例 2：二。静态选址题的解题技巧1.时态解决小作文，我们首要的一个步骤就是明确全文要用的时态。一般而言，静态选址类的题目当中如果没有明确表示过去时间点的标识词，使用一般现在时或是用would/could/might等表示假设的虚拟语气形式。2.主体段建议各位考生按照不同的地址来划分主体段，需要比较几处地址就

17、分成几个主体段，然后具体去写每个地址的利与弊。3.开头和结尾静态选址的开头和数据类图型一样改写题目就可以，结尾只需要说明不同地址各自都有优缺点，可以不去选择一个较好的地址。4.重点词汇和句型在地图题当中，考生必须熟练掌握词汇和句型：(1)方位词东east 东北 north-east西west 东南 south-east北north 西北 north-west南south 西南 north-west(2)坐落/位于A is locatedA is situatedA lies (3)介词的使用A在B内的东部A is located in the east side of B(4)A在距离B东部.

19、gside the river/road(9)道路通向/河流流向The road/river runs fromto5.例文讲解(例1，C5-3)通过基础词汇和句型的讲解，我们以地址s1为例，描述出s1的准确位置，同时客观分析s1作为建立超市地址的优缺点。The first potential1 location (S1)is outside the town itself and is sited just off2 the main road to the town of Hindon, lying 12 kms to the north-west.3 This site is in th

As it is also close to6 the railway line linking the two towns to Cransdon(25 km to the south-east)， a potentially large number o

21、f shoppers would also be able to7 travel by train。三. 动态变迁题的解题技巧1.时态动态变迁题的开头段改写原题用一般现在时，主体段根据图形来决定。如果题目当中有明确表示过去和现在时间标志的词，我们按照图形使用不同的时态。如图所示，例3: The maps show the changes of a small village from 1995 to present。 很显然，在描述第一幅图，有明确的过去时标识词，1995，我们使用一般过去时；在描述第二幅图，存在明确的现在时标识词，present，使用一般现在时。2.主体段落开头段即改写原题，

22、结尾段概括某个地理区域是如何发展变化的。动态选址题通常按照时间顺序划分主体段。题目出现几个年代就分成几个主体段来写，每段写其中一个历史阶段，具体描述两个年代的变化和不同之处。如果有多个年代变化阶段，可以考虑把合并变化阶段来写主体段。3.重点词汇和句型动态变迁题，除了需要掌握上述静态选址题当中表述方位，位置，朝向等重点词汇之外，还需要掌握以下词汇，(1)某处兴建了AA is built inA is contracted inA is established in(2)某处增建了AA is added toAn addition is made to , which is A(3)A被B替代/A

23、改造成BA is turned into/is transformed into BA is converted into B(4)A被搬走A is removed/demolished from(5)A的面积缩小了/A的面积扩大了The size of A is reduced to (only half of/one third of the original size)A is expanded (to twice its size)=The size of A almost doubled。(6)A向方向延长A extends (eastward/westward/southward)

24、4.例文讲解(例 3)开头同数据型图标文章一样，对题目做简单的改写：The maps reveal the alterations of the village of Soton over the period from 1995 to present。主体段首先，我们需要对第一幅图片进行细节的描述。从总体上说，村庄被分成了两部分。按照从南到北的角度，去描述村庄里面具体存在的建筑物。In the first picture8 , the village was divided into9 three parts by two major roads. In the southern part,

25、 there was10 a fishing port on the sea, and a fish market, which was near the port, was just located at the south side 11 of the major road. Opposite to12 the market, there was a block of shops sitting on the other side of the road. East of the shops, a hotel and a cafe were built at the joint 13 of

26、 the two major roads. The northwest part14 was basically a residential area, and some of the houses were surrounded by15 a rectangular road. In addition, a farmland of great acreage occupied the northeast corner16 , while a forest park of similar size was established17 on the south of the farmland。第

27、三段，我们要做的是把“对比”做到极致：两幅图的不同，村庄所发生的变化。每句话做到言之有物，言之有理。考生需要清晰的有条理的指出：消失的建筑物，被替代的建筑物，新建的建筑物等。In the second picture, the village has changed a lot.18The fishing port has gone and the fish market is replaced by19 a block of apartments. Several restaurants also take up the place of 20 the shops on the road sid
