　　1.本次考试 难度中等

　　2.整体分析：

　　Task 1：线图

　　1963-2012澳洲物种产业的劳动力占比

　　动态图常用趋势的表达：

　　句式一： 变化主体/图画中主体+趋势动词+副词+时间区间

　　Eg: The number of aged people over 65 increased significantly from 1940-2000.

　　The number of aged people over 65 dropped slightly from 1960-1980.

　　The number of aged people over 65 fluctuated between 1 million and 1.2 million from 1940-1950.

　　The number of aged people over 65 remained stable from 1930-1940.

　　句式二： There be + 形容词 + 表示趋势的名词 + in+ 变化的主体 + 时间区间

　　Eg: There was an significant increase in the number of aged people over 65 from 1940-2000.

　　There was a slight decline in the number of aged people over 65 from 1960-1980.

　　There was a fluctuation between 1 million and 1.2 million from 1940-1950.

　　Task 2 ：社会类话题

　　本题涉及视觉图像与新闻报道(news story)之间的关系。有人认为，视觉图像(如图片和视频)新闻更准确，但也有人认为，视觉图像也不准确。

　　这类题目更适合双边讨论：因为视觉图像新闻相对于文字新闻显然有其更准确的一面，但某些时候也同样具有欺骗性。

　　题目思路：

　　1. 1.introduction

　　2. 2.相对于文字媒介，用视觉图像来报道新闻的确更准确。

　　--- 包含的信息更多( It is very difficult to portray things in a biased way, when reporters can only provide imagery. )

　　--- 报道的方式更直接，显得更生动，更“真实”( digital imagery can be largely relied on)

　　3. 3.视觉图像新闻也可能不准确

　　--- 选择性( they do not necessarily provide the whole story. )

　　--- 角度( Simply by leaving out the background to a story, or the eye-catching event that a real-life witness would find relevant to news reporting, the perspective of the audience can be greatly influenced. In this way, visual imagery presents an identical flaw to verbal reports.)

　　4. 4.我的观点：用视觉图像来报道的新闻虽然显得更加真实，但后面其实也渗透了作者的选择和角度，因此无论是文字还是图像，为了给读者准确的新闻，都需要新闻报导人具有客观态度。
