Task 1 line graph

For a line graph, describe trends before copying year-by-year figures.

A line graph is mainly about rises, falls, fluctuation, peaks, intersections, and final gaps. Individual figures matter only when they support the main trend.

Figures support trends; they are not the whole report.

Find the overall trend first

Which line rises, falls, or stays stable overall should enter the overview first.

Compare key points

Start, end, highest point, and intersection are usually more important than every middle figure.

Avoid a figure-by-figure list

If every year is described, the report becomes a list. Group by trend first, then choose figures as evidence.

What to revise after checking

Write only a three-sentence overview first: overall trend, largest change, and final gap. Add body figures later.

  • Whether trends come first
  • Whether figures support main features
  • Whether start and end are compared

Task 1 overview
很多 Task 1 卡分点在 overview：缺失、过泛或主特征抓错。了解 overview 为什么压分，以及下一步该专门练哪个动作。带着原文完成检查，再用重写验证是否真的改善。
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。
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。
Task 1 checker
IELTS Task 1 report checker 应先看 overview 是否成立、主特征是否选对、数据是否准确，数字只挑有用的写。
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。
Map task
IELTS Task 1 map 地图题要按变化来组织，按方位逐个罗列建筑会很散。先识别新增、拆除、搬迁、扩建和功能替换，再把变化按区域、时间或用途分组，概括整体规划方向。结合 overview、位置表达和比较句的常见问题，检查自己的报告是否遗漏主变化，并决定下一版先重写总览句、段落分组还是关键位置关系，再验证信息层级。
Map vocabulary
IELTS Task 1 map vocabulary 要先描述方位、替换、扩建、拆除和功能变化。先标出保留、拆除、新建、扩建和功能改变的区域。
