The chart below shows the amount of leisure time enjoyed by men and women of different

employment status.

Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information shown below.

该柱状图显示的是1998－1999年处于不同工作状态的男性和女性每周所享有的闲暇时光。这里所指的不同工作状态细分为全职、兼职、失业、退休和家庭主妇五大类。

The bar chart indicates the amount of leisure time per week that males and females of

various employment statuses enjoyed over a one year period of time from 1998 to 1999. The

employment statuses referred to here are grouped into five categories which are: employed

full-time, part-time, unemployed, retired and housewives.

如图所示，在全职、失业和退休状态下，男性的休闲时间要比女性多，而在另外两个类别，即：兼职和作为纯家庭主妇的状态下，女性与男性毫无可比性，呈一支独秀状况。

As is indicated in the chart, under the backgrounds of being employed full-time,

unemployed and retired, males had more leisure time to enjoy than females did. But with the

other two statuses, namely, being employed part-time and being pure housewives, males had

nothing to compare with females.

首先，我们看到失业与退休的男性与女性享受到的休闲时间最多。处于失业状态的两性群体分别有每周85小时和70小时的空余时光；而退休群体中，男性有84小时闲暇时间，女性有69小时。可以说在这两种状态下，男性与女性的闲暇时光相差甚微。

Firstly, unemployed and retired males and females enjoyed the greatest amount of leisure

time. The average weekly leisure time enjoyed by males and females were 85 hours and 70 hours

respectively. Among those who were retired, men had 84 hours while women had 69 hours.

Generally speaking, males and females under these two statuses of employment showed very

slight difference in terms of the amount of leisure time being enjoyed.

其次，对于全职工作者来讲，男性也比女性享有更多的闲暇时间，两者分别为45小时和37小时。

Secondly, for those who worked full-time, males also had more leisure time than females

and the chart showed that males had 45 hours while women 37 hours.

再者，很有趣的一点是：家庭主妇类与男性无缘完全可以理解，但兼职状态下却只有女性，没有男性，这就难以令人理解了。不管怎样，我们看到的数据是兼职的女性每周有40小时的休闲时间，家庭主妇有50小时。

Thirdly, what is really interesting is that while it is totally understandable that the

Housewives category had not

thing to do with men, it was really hard to believe that the category of being employed part-time

only involved females and no males. Whatsoever, the figure we see is 40 hours for part-time

employed females and 50 hours for housewives.

总体而言，除了非常特别的两个群体外，男性比女性的休闲时间要多。

In general, apart from two very special groups, males had more leisure time to enjoy than

females.

The table below shows the consumer durables (telephone, refrigerator, etc.) owned in Britain from 1972 to 1983.

Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information shown below.

该图表展现的是1972－1983十一年间英国耐久消费品的拥有量。

The table indicates the consumer durables that were own in the UK over a period of 11 years from 1972 to 1983.

从图表来看，英国八种耐久消费品在所标识时间段里的拥有量总体分为三种情况：中央暖气设备、电视、吸尘器、冰箱、电话、洗碗机呈现出各有特色的上升趋势；洗衣机呈现出总的上升，但中间有一次下降、放映机无从对比。

As can be seen from the table, the ownership of the eight above mentioned consumer durables in the UK during the designated period of time roughly revealed three different trends. Central heating, television, vacuum cleaner, refrigerator, telephone and dishwasher showed a trend of increase with different characteristics; Washing machine showed a trend of general rise with one fluctuation; Video had nothing to compare with.

首先，中央暖气设备和电话一直处于上升态势。1972年暖气设备拥有量为37％，电话为42％，之后，前者以平均每年大约4％的增幅递增到了1983年的64％，最大增长发生在1972－1974年间，增幅为6％。后者以平均每年5％左右的增速增长到了1983年的77％，其中达到最大8％增速的有两次，分别是1972－1974和1979－1981年间。

Firstly, central heating and telephone were on a constant rise. In 1972, the figures for central heating and telephone were 37% and 42% respectively. In the following years, the former increased at an average rate of 4% every year and reached 64% in 1983. The biggest rise occurred during 1972-1974 and the rate was 6%. The latter increased at an average yearly rate of about 5% and rose to 77% in 1983. The biggest growth rate was 8% ,occurring twice in the process, one during 1972-1974, the other during 1979-1981.

其次，电视、吸尘器、冰箱、洗碗机的增长过程中皆出现了静止状态。电视机从1972年的93％上升到了1983年的98％，但在1976－1978年间维持在96％的静止状态；接下来在1979－1982又连续4年保持在97％。吸尘器从最初的87％上升至最后一年的95％，但在1976－1978年间则保持92％不变。冰箱和洗碗机也都出现了类似状态。

Second, in the rising processes of television, vacuum cleaner and dishwasher, there appeared static situations. Television increased from 93% in 1972 to 98% in 1983, but it remained at 96% during 1976-1978. Then for four continuous years from 1979 to 1982, there appeared another static period which stabilized at 97%. Vacuum cleaner grew from the original 87% to 95% in the end, but during 1976-1978, it remained unchanged at 92%. A similar pattern occurred to washing machine and dishwasher.

第三，洗衣机在从1972年的66％增长至1983年的80％的过程中出现了1978－1979年间1％的下降，从75％下降到了 74％，形成了图表里唯一的一次波动。
