　　Changes in People’s Daily Expenses.

　　What is shown in the table above indicates that dramatic changes have taken place in the people’s daily expenses from 1995 to 1999. The expenses on food have declined by 30% while those on clothing and recreation have increased respectively by 9% and 7% . The statistics of rise and fall seem to exist in isolation but closely related to one another .

　　There are two factors accounting for these changes. Development in economy is an essential one in the five years. The increased income resulting from economic growth plays an important part in the less expense on food. Hence, a small percentage of total income is enough to cover food expense. Another one is the changes in life style. When food presents no worry to the average, people begin to focus more of interest on handsome appearance and happy leisure time . As a result of such a shift, spending on clothing and recreation increases year after year.

　　From the analyses made above, we may come to the conclusion that people’s living standards have been constantly improved between 1995 and 1999. With the further growth in economy and more changes in life style, the tendency indicated in the table will continue in the better direction .

　　點(diǎn)評：該范例題屬于圖表作文寫作，與社會生活密切相關(guān)，與1991年6月份四級考試人們飲食結(jié)構(gòu)的變化圖表作文寫作類似。根據(jù)四級圖表作文命題規(guī)律，第一段描述人們1995到1999年日常開支所發(fā)生的巨大變化;第二段分析產(chǎn)生變化的原因;最后一段依據(jù)圖表所示變化作出了合乎邏輯的范例。文章緊扣主題，條理清楚，語言連貫，表述準(zhǔn)確規(guī)范，結(jié)論合理。
