主题2：图画、图表类作文写作指南

张岚

命题导读

图画、图表类作文通常以图画、表格或图形的形式呈现，体裁多为说明文或议论文。此类题型要求考生根据图画和图表提供的信息、数据和文字内容进行描述、分析与讨论，得出令人信服的结论，或对某一结论进行评述。

图画、图表类作文常见的命题形式有图画、表格、条形图、饼状图、线形图。图画、图表中的信息和数据往往较多，写作时一般不能把各种信息和数据都列举出来。因此，读懂图画和图表是关键，考生要认真分析图画和图表的信息和数据。考生平常要多做练习，熟悉这类作文的写法，熟记常用词汇和句型。

写作导析

在平时的训练或考试中，图画、图表类作文出现的概率相对较小，所以考生不容易把握其写作技巧。图画、图表类作文不像提纲作文一样会给出写作要点，考生需要根据图画和图表内容来寻找信息，确定文章的写作思路。尽管图表作文与图画作文有很大的不同，但写作思路基本相同，可以归纳为以下三个方面：

1. 简要描述图画或图表的直观内容

写好图画、图表类作文的第一步是解读图画内容或分析图表中的数据变化所反映出来的问题或趋势，把直观看到的图画或图表的内容简单地描述出来，简要叙述图画的内容或图表所揭示的信息。这一部分简要概述即可，不需要展开。

2. 分析图画或数据并阐述原因

分析图画或数据变化的原因，并阐明理由，注意应使内容要点条理化、有序化。

3. 提出解决问题的建议或揭示图画的寓意，得出结论

和提纲作文一样，图画、图表类作文的最后也要总结全文的观点，根据图画或图表的内容给出相应的评价或者建议，这一点类似于社会问题型作文的结尾。
