问题 How to approach Writing Test Part One
• This part tests your ability to write a short report expressing information which you are given in graphic form, such as bar charts, pie charts and graphs.
• Read the instructions carefully so that you know what you are required to do: this is usually to describe or compare the information in the graphic input. Underline the keywords in the instructions.
• Make an outline plan of the report.
• Start with a brief description of what the report is about.
• You can use suitable headings if you wish.
• Try to use a wide range of appropriate vocabulary and grammatical structures.
• You should not invent any information for this part.
• Check that you have written your answer in 120-140 words (multiply the number of lines by the average number of words per line: don’t waste time counting every word).
• After writing, read what you have written, correct mistakes and make improvements. If you want to add anything, use a sign, e.g. *. Put a line through anything you want to omit. You should not rewrite your answer.
• Make sure the examiner will be able to read your answer. Use a pen and your normal handwriting (do not write in capital letters).
• You should spend about 20-25 minutes on this part.

答案 These three charts give information gained in a survey of independent consultants. Age Slightly over half the respondents (52%) were aged 21-40. This figure declined to 38% for the age group 41-60, while only 10% were older. Business activity The largest number were in marketing services, with 40% of those surveyed. Financial advice came a long way behind, at 24%, closely followed by training, at 22%. The smallest category was creative and design services, employing 14% of the consultants. Marketing tools Most of the consultants use several marketing tools. Only three methods are used by over half of the sample: advertising, at ,90%, word-of-mouth (78%), and, some way behind, website (57%). 36% use PR, and only a quarter use exhibitions. The least popular option is direct mail, used by only 18% of the consultants.
