雅思图表作文满分一例

The table below gives information on consumer spending on different itemsin five different countries in 2002.

Percentage of national consumer expenditure by category - 2002

构思过程：

I know that I can write a short introduction by paraphrasing thequestion.

I look for an overall trend. I can see that the food/drinks/tobaccocategory has the highest percentages, and leisure/education has the lowest.

Now I want to write two main body paragraphs. I need to select something tosay about each country. Remember, there is no rule about what information youselect; everyone will do this differently.

I look for the highest figures in each category: I can see that Turkey hasthe highest figure for food/drinks/tobacco AND for education/leisure. Italy hasthe highest figure for clothing/footwear.

So, I'll write a paragraph about Turkey and Italy.

My final paragraph needs to talk about Ireland, Spain and Sweden.

Maybe I'll point out that Ireland has a high figure for the first category,Spain has the lowest figure for education/leisure, and Sweden has the lowestfigures for the first AND second categories.

I don't need a conclusion because I have already mentioned a general trendin point 2.
