题目：The table below gives information about the underground railway systems in six cities.
此图为表格图。表格每一列的内容分别描述的是不同的数据：地铁的历史、总长度和年载客量。这些都需要提到。由于城市比较多，切勿记流水账一样的引用每个数据，应当主要引用每一列的最大值和最小值。主体段可以用一般过去时和一般现在时。
The data given by the table is about the details regarding the underground railway systems in six cities.
（首段paraphrase原题，概括全表格内容，点明描述对象和地点）
London has the oldest underground railway system among the six cities. It was opened in 1863. Paris is the second oldest, in which it was opened in 1900. It was followed by Tokyo, Washington DC and Kyoto. Los Angeles has the newest underground railway system, and was only opened in 2001. In terms of the size, London has the longest route, 394 kms, which is twice as large as the system in Paris. In contrast, Kyoto has the smallest one, only 11 kms, which is 30 times less than that of London.
（描述各大城市地铁的开通时间，从年代最久远的伦敦开始描述。将较长的伦敦、巴黎地铁线路以及较短的京都地铁线路进行适当比较。）
Interestingly, Tokyo, which only has 155 kilometers of route, serves the most passengers per year, at 1927 million passengers. The system in Paris has the second greatest number of passengers, at 1191 million passengers per year. The smallest underground railway system, Kyoto, serves the smallest number of passengers per year as predicted.
（描述地铁运送乘客人数最多的城市和运送乘客人数最少的城市每年运送的乘客总数，即表格第三列的最大值和最小值）
In conclusion, the underground railway systems in different cities vary a lot in the size of the system, the number of passengers served per year and in the age of the system.
（全文总结，点明不同城市的地铁在历史、总长度和年载客人数方面有很大不同）
满分要素剖析：语言表达
本文罗列了表格中的一些重要数据，其中运用到很多连接词，使文章意群过渡连贯。如：in terms of，in contrast，interestingly，in conclusion等。
Interestingly, Tokyo, which only has 155 kilometers of route, serves the most passengers per year, at 1927 million passengers.本句用从句作为插入语，巧妙的在一 句话当中引用两个重要的数据，并用 interestingly 巧妙转折，说明东京的地铁线路不长，乘客数量却很多。
In conclusion, the underground railway systems in different cities vary a lot in the size of the system, the number of passengers served per year and in the age of the system. 学会本文尾句高度概括的方法。把三个重要信息点写成并列的名词短语，其中 (which is) served per year 修饰 the number of passengers.
逻辑结构本文是典型的总分总结构的小作文。开篇先 paraphrase 原题，第二部分开始描述表格的细节, 按照从左到右的顺序，引用每一列中最重要的数据。最后一句话对全篇进行了高度概括，说 明各个城市地铁在三个方面的数据差异很大。
