　　【題目分析】

　　本題屬于圖表類作文，通過觀察題目給出的三幅圖表作文。這三幅圖表餅圖、條形圖、折線圖各一，都是跟廢棄物產生有關，除了圖表之外，題目在寫作要求部分幾乎再沒有任何相關提示的語句，所以完全需要考生自行識解圖表信息。但題目中給出了總結圖表信息和必要時作比較這兩個要求，寫作時應緊緊圍繞這兩個要求來寫。

　　【寫作攻略】

　　針對這樣的題目，考生要首先正確理解圖表信息：餅圖給出的是2007年全球產生廢棄物的總體情況，中等收入國家約占一半，高收入和低收入國家大約各占四分之一；條形圖反映的是2007年日均人均產生廢棄物的量，從多到少依次是高收入、中等收入和低收入國家；折線圖說的是中國、美國、印度這三個國家各自的情況。然后根據題目要求，對以上信息作一總結，交代出重要數據，在相關的時候對三個圖表中的數據進行比較，然后得出結論。

　　On Waste Generation

　　A series of charts provides information on waste generation across the globe and in three individual countries. From the graphs, it is seen that huge amounts of waste are being produced and waste production will continue to be a serious problem in the years to come。

　　According to the pie chart, the total waste generation on earth reaches 2.12 tons in 2007. Middle-income countries account for nearly half of it, high-income and low-income countries about a quarter respectively. However, judging from the perspective of individual waste generation, people in high-income countries are more responsible, with nearly 1.5 kilograms of waste generated per person per day. In comparison, people in middle- and low-income countries are less responsible for producing waste, about 0.8 and 0.6 kilogram’s per capita waste production each day in 2007, as shown in the bar chart. Population in middle-income countries is far larger than that of high-income ones; therefore, a bigger proportion of the gross value of waste generation is taken up by middle-income countries。

　　The line chart shows the prediction of waste production in China, the United States and India, in the coming years. China has the sharpest increase compared with the other two countries, possibly reaching 500 million tons in the year 2030. The annual waste generation of the United States will remain stable around 200 tons, with just a slight rise each year. As for India, the figure starts low in 2000, but has a growing tendency and will surpass the US around 2020. Both the US and India are below China most of the time in terms of waste generation。

　　Measures should be taken to cope with this serious problem. Our country, with a large population and a large potential of generating wastes, should assume the responsibility to combat it; it is hoped that we can slow down the increase。
