題目：The bar chart shows the distribution of employment among agriculture, services, industries in three countries in 1980 and projected distribution in 2020.
Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features，and make comparisons where relevant.
解題思路：
本次考查的是多柱圖的動態圖，需要描述三個國家1980-2020期間三個領域就業的情況。需要注意，時間跨度由過去到未來，所以時態上涉及一般過去時，現在完成進行時，一般將來時等。
參考範文：
The bar charts describe the percentages of people working in three different sectors in 1980 and 2020 in three countries.
Overall, for each of these three countries, the proportion of employment in services has been increasing universally since the year of 1980 while the employment rate in agriculture has been undergoing an opposite trend.
In country B, the agriculture sector was the most important source of employment in 1980, with 66% of people hired into such sectors. People employed in the services and industries respectively accounted for 25% and 20%. Four decades later, it is expected that the ratio of people working in agriculture will decrease to 48% in 2020 whereas the other two sectors will see an increase with the figures to 42% (for services) and 38% (for industries) respectively.
The distributions of employment in the three sectors in country A and C were similar in 1980 and both countries will see the similar trend in 2020. In 1980, Service sectors had the largest number of employers (46% in country A and 67% in country C), followed by industries (30% in country A and 38% in country C) and agriculture (20% in country A and 8% in country C). In 2020, there will be a job cut for both industries and agriculture sectors, but an increase of job opportunities for service sectors.
重點表達：
①universally: adv. 普遍地
②undergo: v. 經歷
③account for: n. 佔據
④job cut: 裁員

A類大作文：
題目： In some cities, there are few controls over the design and construction of new homes and office buildings, so people can build in whatever style they like. Do you think advantages outweigh disadvantages?
題型：分析利弊
話題：城市政府類
解題思路：建築自古就能夠直觀體現出城市甚至國家特點。但隨着人口增多、建築需求量變大，許多地區的住宅與辦公樓都趨於模板化，這一現象也或多或少受到了負面評論。於是有些城市撤銷了對新建築在設計和建造方面的管控。但如果人們完全按照自己的意願蓋房子，最終結果就一定好嗎？本文會通過利弊兩方對比，得出結論。
參考範文：
Architecture, combining both the practical function to hold people and the taste of aesthetics of the city as a whole, is an interesting concept to many people. The governments in some regions withdraw the regulations on new buildings so as to encourage architectural diversity and innovation. However, in my opinion, the disadvantages may outweigh the benefits if everyone is free to build whatever types he likes.
Admittedly, it will be dull when all the buildings in a city appear to be in the same size and structure. A place will lose its uniqueness when all the architectures are made out of one mode. But similarly, a large variety of different buildings will add no distinctive features to the place, except making it look messy and dizzy with different styles piling up randomly. Worse still, some buildings may be designed by strange-taste artists whose works will unfortunately stand as permanent eyesores to the public. Therefore, a complete release of control on architecture is not a wise decision.
Moreover, the building materials and land resources will be less considered if there are no regulations. Experts on architectures have already worked out sets of rules for design and construction based on professional experiments and calculation, so many of the regulations have their own scientific reasons. If people build houses out of their own will, regardless of the compulsory requirements, the appearances of the house may be given more priority to safety and practicality, which could lead to disasters in the long run.
All in all, we should note that great cities are made by the buildings that are not necessarily all that iconic. Diversity and conformity are not mutually exclusive, so buildings should be constructed based on personal preferences as well as government regulations.
重點表達：
①practical function: 實用功能
②aesthetics: n. 美學
③dizzy: adj. 頭暈目眩的
④permanent: adj. 永久的
⑤eyesores: n. 難看的事物
⑥priority: n. 優先考慮的事情
⑦iconic: adj 標誌性的
