This bar chart shows mobilephone subscriptions in developing countries and developed countries,measured in billions,for the years 2000 to 2008.The mobilephone subscriptions in both developing countries and developed countries enjoyed increase in different speed over time.In this chart,the mobilephone subscription in developed countries maintained a continual and steady increase from 2000 to 2007 and remained constant in 2008.Meanwhile,the mobilephone subscription in developing countries have undergone a slow increase from 2000 to 2004 and then saw a great surge from 2005 to 2007.This trend increased to a peak about 4 billion in 2008.Based on different national situations,the reasons leading to this trend can be summarized into two points.First,the developed countries have a limited number of population,which decides that the demand for mobilephone service is also limited and will soon be saturated.Second,as for the developing countries,it has a large population and also a large demand for mobilephone service.And as the mobilephone becomes more available and more affordable,there is an increasing number of people buying their mobilephones.In my view,this trend that the number of mobilephone subscription continues to grow in developing countries will be constant for a while in the future.And this trend would also benefit most of the mobile users both in the developing countries and developed countries.

2019年12月21日下午，考研英语落下帷幕。纵观英语二试卷，总体来看比较容易。老师给大家解析一下英语二的大作文。本次英语二大作文考查的是饼状图，回顾过去英语二10年考试中，5年考查的是柱状图，3年考查的是饼状图，1年考查得失线形图，1年考查的是表格。可以看出柱状图和饼状图考查最频繁。本次考查的饼状图的话题仍然是关于大学生的话题。回顾过去10年考试中，有3年考查了与大学生有关的话题，分别是2013年考查大学生兼职情况，2016年考查某高校学生旅游目的调查，2019年考查某高校本科毕业生毕业去向统计。今年考查的是某高校学生使用手机的目的调查。本篇英语二大作文的结构要分三段来写：第一段描述图表，第二段分析原因，第三段给出结论、趋势预测及建议。第一段描述图表要观察全面，不可遗漏有用信息。其中用手机学习的占主要比例，占59.5%，可以用这个句型来写：…take（s）a lion’s share,accounting for 59.5%，其它用手机的目的是打发时间、浏览信息和其它，分别占到20.5%，17%和2%，这三者可以放在一起用一个句子来搞定，……occupy 20.5%,17%and 2%respectively。第二段分析原因，主要写这个现象的原因，尤其是用手机主要目的的成因。考生可以从这几个方面分析原因：第一，随着经济的发展，人民生活水平提高，几乎每个家长都会给学买一部手机，这一点是前提条件。第二，随着科技的进步，手机给人们带来了太多的便利，尤其是在学习、交流和查阅资料方面。第三段写结论、趋势预测和建议。结论可以概括一点，大学生这样利用手机很符合年轻人的特点与时代特征。趋势预测大概说明一下未来几年这边趋势会发生怎样的变化，一般而言图表中的现象都可以体现出未来一段时间会继续持续一段时间。最后，可以提示年轻人不要沉迷于手机。综上，今年的英语二大作文还是比较容易写出，具体写法请看下面的参考范文：答案：一段：As is apparently demonstrated in the chart above,we are informed some information concerning college students’reading intentions with mobile phones in a certain university.To be more specific,with the help of cell phones,the proportions of college students’spending on study take a lion’s share,accounting for up to 59.5%.Then those who would like to spend more time on goofing,browsing information and others occupy approximately 20%,17%and 2%respectively.二段：There are diverse components contributing to the above trend,but generally speaking,they may put down to the following two aspects.Initially,there is no doubt that recent years have witnessed the rapid development of economy,and people’s living standards have been improved remarkably,as a result of which,an increasing number of parents are likely to buy their children a smart phone,which may provide possibility for students to apply more advanced equipment into study,to the extent that their learning efficiency and reading horizons would be improved.Simultaneously,along with the development of technology and the advancement of the Internet,a growing quantity of college students’reading habits have been changed because mobile phones would offer more convenience during their study,which should be taken into account.三段：Based on the discussion above,a conclusion can be drawn safely that college students’reading habits adhere to youngsters’characteristics and comply with the trait of the new era.Given the data above,it is well predicted that this trend as reflected by the pie chart above will continue for a while in the near future.Nevertheless,there are also some potential risks if college students are too addicted to mobile phones;therefore,it is advisable for youngsters to arrange time reasonably during using cell phones.

According to the chart above,people are checking their phones as soon as they wake up（51%）,on their way Lo work（51%）,at lunch（51%）,in the evening（65%,64%）,and even in bed（35%,40%）.This indicales that the majoriLy of Chinese people are using their smartphones mainly in the evening,when they are back trom work and want to relax.It mighl seem like a perfect opportunity to check your email,play a video game,see what your friends are up to on social media or check tomorrow's weather forecast in the evening.However,ac-cording to relevant studies.smartphones are almost perfectly designed to disrupt sleep,because they keep us mentally engaged late into the evening.causing us Lo sleep a lot later than we ideally should.What's more,people who are on their phones after 9 p.m.are notably more tired and less productive the next day compared with their unplugged counterparts.Therefore,it is recommended that we should place our smartphone on the other side of the room and then get into bed with a good book when we are getting ready to sleep.

From the chart above.we can see the numbers of beds per thou.sand older people in elder-care institutions of some Chinese cities and the developed countries.Though the numbers for some cities,such as Guangzhou,Wuhan and Beijing,are higher than the average number for the whole country,which is 21.5,they are st川much lower than that of developed countries,which is 60.There are many factors contributing to the above-meniioned phenomenon,but in general,they may come down to two major ones.To begin with,the tradition of supporting the elders at home in China has hindered the development of nursing institutions.What's more,while the aging of the population is speeding up,the attention placed on the elders is insufficient.Considering the big gap between China and the developed countries,it is high time for us to take measures to close the gap.First,we.should change our idea that nursing institutions are only for those whose children don't respect them.In addition,more funds should be invested for the construction of elder-care institutions.Only in this way can we construct a society in which the elderly are looked after properly.

The pie chart given above reflects the public's attitude towards food safety.According to the figures,44.7%of the people take neutral attitude towards food safety,ranking first.The percentage of consumers being a little worried about food safety ranks the third among all.making up t 5.8%.There is no denying that food safety is related to people's health and basic livelihood.However,many producers tend to adopt poor-quality raw materials to lower costs,resulting in poor-quality products prevailing in our society,which not only poses threats to people's health,bul also wreaks havoc（破坏）on the economic development and social stability.Particularly,when the authorities concerned fail to give direct control and supervision,these profit-driven companies are unlikely to shoulder social responsibility.To conclude,such a trend will probably develop more dramatically in the future.Therefore,it is advised that administrators and the authorities should keep taking measures to reverse such trend,and it is only by consistent and persistent efforts that they can ultimately eliminate the misdeeds.

The table shows that the income sources of Chinese students are quite different from those of American students.In China,85%of students'money is from their parents while in America only 40%ofstudents'money is provided by their parents.Chinese students earn only 5%from part-timc jobs and 5%from student loan.However,American students got 20%and 25%of their money from these two sources respectively.In addition,fellowship or scholarship takes up 15%of American students'income while income from this source for Chinese students occupies only 5%.There are probably two reasons contributing to the differences.First,in China,students without sustainable income are still considered dependent on parents.Therefore,it is natural for them to ask their parents for money.By contrast,American students over 18 years have developed more senses of financial independence.Second,since America is more developed than China,it is relatively easier for American students to find part-time jobs.Therefore,a larger proportion of income comes from part-time job in America.I believe in future,more Chinese students will realize the necessity of self-dependence and try to make their own Iiving through part-timejobs and other ways.

Portrayed in the above pie chart is a survey of college students'purposes of traveling。The number of students who take traveling as a chance to see beautiful scenes accounts for 37%,while students who would like to travell relieve pressure fr om study.

The bar chart shows the general trend of university students whotake parttime jobs at different stages during their college life.Seeing from the chart,more than half of the college students,about 66.77%take a parttime job at their first year.And the proportion increases slightly year by year,til the last year,the proportion reaches the maximal number,surging to 88.24%.There are basically three reasons behind this trend.To begin with,most students are eager to take a parttime job in the purpose of earning some money,which can ease their parents'burden.Besides,they can acquire more experience before officially entering the society.And with more experience,they can easily get a job compared to those who do not have any experience.Finally,they can not only turn what they have learnt into the application,but also learn more which they cannot obtain from their books.In my view,getting a parttime job is a good practice.However,the major task of students is still the study.They should make a balance between their academic life and their working life.
