TASK 1 WRITING PROCESS TO MAXIMIZE
SCORE
1. Read Summary: What they will be giving you in task 1 writing is they
will give you a diagram with a description.
This description is called a
summary. The summary is used to tell you what you are looking at, and it
will tell you exactly that, so you
must read
the summary carefully before
writing
.
Example:
“The table below shows how many tourists from five countries
visiting Australia in different years from 1991 and 1999.”
When you look at the diagram, the first step should be asking yourself
·
What’s the verb tense? Or what are the verb tenses?
(Past tense)
·
Look
at the summary, look at the diagram and ask yourself
-
What is measured?
(the number of tourists)
-
Unit of Measurement?
(thousand)
We need to be accurate about what is being measured and the unit of
measurement.
2. Analyze Trends:
·
Look at the general trend. It’s quite easy.
You simply
look from the
beginning to the end
. You
don’t need
to worry about the middle
. You
only should look at the beginning and the end
(did it increase?, did it
remain the same?, or did it decrease?)
·
After looking at the general trend, you should
look at a couple of the
other things. First of all you see if
any peaks, any dips, any
fluctuations, anything is going in the
middle between the beginning
and the end.
·
Superlatives
(highest, least, most, fewest)
. For example,
which
country accounted for the most or and which country accounted for
the fewest visitors?
