这篇流程图小作文的描述：该柱形图描述的是1995年到2002年英国通话时间长度的变化走势，通话类型有座机本地通话，座机国内和国际通话，移动电话通话。题目如下：
The chart below shows the total number of minutes (in billions) of telephone calls in the UK, divided into three categories, from 1995-2002.
在写作之前，首先要想好文章的框架，考官建议大家写4个段落，每个段落的内容分别是：
1. Introduction: rewrite the question statement in your own words.
2. Overview: point out which category was highest in each year, which was lowest, and which saw the biggest changes.
3. Details: compare the 3 categories in 1995, then say what happened up until 1999.
4. Details: notice what happened to local calls from 1999 onwards, and contrast this with the other 2 categories. Finish with a comparison of the figures in 2002.
第一段，改写题目;
第二段，描述整体趋势，指出某个通话类型在某一年的最大值、最小值，以及最大变量。
第三段，描述细节段，比较1995年的3种通话类型的通话时长，然后再看看1999年的时候发生了哪些改变。
第四段，另一个细节段，注意1999年之后本地通话的走势，和其它两个类型作对比。以2002年三种类型的比较作为收尾。
接下来看考官给出的满分范文：
The bar chart compares the amount of time spent by people in the UK on three different types of phone call between 1995 and 2002.
It is clear that calls made via local, fixed lines were the most popular type, in terms of overall usage, throughout the period shown. The lowest figures on the chart are for mobile calls, but this category also saw the most dramatic increase in user minutes.
In 1995, people in the UK used fixed lines for a total of just over 70 billion minutes for local calls, and about half of that amount of time for national or international calls. By contrast, mobile phones were only used for around 4 billion minutes. Over the following four years, the figures for all three types of phone call increased steadily.
By 1999, the amount of time spent on local calls using landlines had reached a peak at 90 billion minutes. Subsequently, the figure for this category fell, but the rise in the other two types of phone call continued. In 2002, the number of minutes of national / international landline calls passed 60 billion, while the figure for mobiles rose to around 45 billion minutes.
