Many books exist that are guides to acadcmic writing
for native speakers. There are also a number for non-native speakers.
Of these, quite a few deal with the use of graphs, tables and other
visuals. However, they normally explain how to insert or use these
visuals to make your work more interesting and easy to understand. They
do not usually explain how to write about these visual aids.
The
primary purpose of this book is to help you with the Writing Task 1 of
the IELTS Acadcmic test. However, because it attempts to deal with the
language required in a systematic way, you may find that much of the
information it contains could be useful to you later during your
studies, if you ever need to use graphs, tables or the like in your
work. So perhaps you should not give the book away as soon as you have
passed your IELTS.
In
order to write about visuals, as required in IELTS Acadcmic Writing
Task 1, it is necessary to understand what to write, as well as how to
write it. The first section of this book therefore begins with a
discussion about the main purpose and features of graphs, tables and
other visuals, and provides exercises to practise identifying
these correctly.
The
later sections then go on to deal with the language required to write
about them. There arc vocabulary’ lists, explanations about meaning and
grammar, and exercises. There is also an Answer Key, and model answers
are provided, so that the book can be used for self-study as well as
class-room use.
Since
most of the IELTS Academic Writing Task 1 questions deal with graphs
and tables, and since they require specific interpretation and writing
conventions, we will first focus on these.
