26、或者没有发挥。不要发挥图表里不存在的内容。一般会规定展现多种item的变化状况,可以用小标题分段。重点如下:一、 首先把握图表的大趋势;二、 描述重要变化点,例如suddengrowth,abruptdrop,drasticshrinkage.,proliferationetc.三、 起始点和衔接点的描述turningpoint四、 需重点掌握的有:描写变化的句型,及以上一、二、三。五、条形图和线性图都一般都波及到这种类型。Samples1 .销售预测:BarChart,趋势,最大值,最小值,变化值ReportonSalesForecastfornextyearIntroductionThis
