4. 图表题：
2002年6月的四级作文考了图表题。进行此类作文时，考生切忌堆砌数据，而应对图表进行准确地概括和描述后用更多的篇幅来揭示图表的含义或分析其现象的原因。

短文写作三要素:
1. 无论是什么论点，短文写作一定要切题。
2. 写出正确的句子，简单句与复合句交替使用。
3. 学习使用谚语，为作文增色。
例如：Where there is will, there is a way.有志者，事竟成。
现以2001年6月的作文为例：那一年作文要求三个部分的内容：
①表示对朋友到来的欢迎；
②假期安排；
③注意事项。
I'm very glad that you will come to see me during the weeklong holiday, we have not seen each other for two years, so this time we can spend the holiday together. How nice will see you!
Since you left Beijing 2 years ago, Beijing has made great changes because of 2008 Olympic. You will be surprised by that changes. I helped you to make some arrangements during the holiday. We can go shopping in WangFujin Department Sto
re, climbing the Mountain Xiang, visiting the Summer Palace and Forbidden Cities in Beijing. Beijing has many good places we can visit. I think we will have a very good time together.
By the way, you should telephone me when you come to Beijing, I will meet you in the railway station. Im looking forward to your coming.
从切题方面来看，第一段都与内容相吻合，表示欢迎朋友的到来，第二段中前两句都没有切题，但句子也都还正确，第三段中基本切题，句子也基本正确，虽然没有写作许多复合句或谚语等为作文增色，但这样的作文就可以得到9分，如果再能写几个正确又带色彩的句子，
就可得到12分以上。
