Common risk
Describing bars one by one turns the report into a data list without overview and comparison.
Task 1 vocabulary page
Bar chart vocabulary should serve ranking, gaps, and grouping.
Identify where the writing step breaks first, then choose the next revision step. No model essay memorisation, and no generic correction list.
Diagnose first, then rewrite; repair one step before writing the next essay.
Diagnostic evidence
Without relationship phrases such as highest, lowest, similar to, or twice as many as, bar-chart comparison is weak.
What to confirm before writing
Circle highest and lowest values, similar groups, the largest gap, and outliers first.
What to revise after checking
Write one overview and two group-comparison sentences without including every number.
- Whether ranking language appears
- Whether gaps are expressed
- Whether grouping is formed

Writing guides
按正在写的题目查找雅思写作指南：小作文图型、overview 与数据取舍，大作文题型、立场与主体段展开，以及批改后的同题重写步骤。每篇指南都要求你回到自己的作文验证一个具体改动。
Writing checker
使用 IELTS Writing checker 时，分数之外还要看主卡分点。更有用的是找出 Task Response、Coherence、Lexical Resource 或 Grammar 中最影响训练的主卡分点。
Task 2 checker
IELTS Task 2 essay checker 应结合题目和作文检查回应覆盖、立场、功能与论证链，语法和高级词替换放在后面。对照 TR、CC、LR 和 GRA 找出最影响目标分的一项，引用原文证据，再把问题收窄成一个 reason、example 或 consequence 的段落重写，比较修改前后是否更完整。
Bar chart
IELTS Task 1 bar chart 需要按类别、时间或数值高低分组。只逐个柱子描述，通常会让比较和 overview 变弱。柱子多时，更要选择主特征。
Task 1 comparison
IELTS Task 1 comparison 的关键是把相关项目放在一起比较。只按顺序描述每个数字，通常会让 overview 和主特征变弱。
Line graph vocabulary
IELTS Task 1 line graph vocabulary 要先表达上升、下降、峰值、波动和幅度，而不是随机替换同义词。同一组数据写三句：趋势、幅度、与另一条线比较。
Task 1 data selection
IELTS Academic Task 1 数据选择决定报告是否真正回应图表。学习如何从折线图、柱状图、表格或饼图中识别主趋势、极值、交叉点和关键分组，先写有信息量的 overview，再用有限数据支持比较。结合常见漏选与逐点复述案例，检查自己的报告最该重写总览句、数据句还是段落分组，并验证是否改善。
Line graph
IELTS Task 1 line graph 折线图写作要优先识别总体上升或下降、波动、峰值、交叉点和最终差距，逐年数字只挑关键的写。学习把主要趋势放进 overview，再按阶段或可比较对象组织两段细节，用关键数据证明关系。提交报告后，检查趋势选择、段落分组、比较句和数据准确性，确定下一版最该重写的部分。
