2015年考研英语（二）的小作文要求考生写一则启事，为夏令营招募志愿者。这道题与2010
年考研英语（一）考过的启事非常相似。
小作文特别讲究格式正确。从格式上说，一则启事包括四个部分：1）标题，写在启事上方的正中央；2）日期，写在标题右下方；3）正文，一般写三段；4）落款，写在正文之下中间偏右的位置。本文的落款可以写学生会。
就这则启事来说，正文的第一段可首先交代背景（大学将要为中学生举办一次夏令营），然后表明这则启事的目的 --- 招募志愿者。第二段简要介绍这次夏令营的活动。我们可以先指出这次夏令营的主题，然后列举出与该主题相关的一系列活动。第三段说明对志愿者的要求，如性格外向、有组织青少年活动的经验等，最后给出报名方式。下面请看范文：

二、大作文
48. Directions:
  Write an essay based on the following chart. In your writing you should
  1) interpret the chart, and
  2) give your comments
You should write about 150 words on the ANSWER SHEET. ( 15 points )
2015年考研英语（二）的大作文考的是图表作文，这也是2010年以来一直采用的命题形式。图表一般都有标题，这为我们准确理解图表提供了重要线索。从这幅图表的标题中我们可以知道，它反映的是我国某市居民春节假期花销的比例。结合这幅饼形图我们可以看出：我国某市居民在春节期间花销最大的是新年礼物，占40%；其次是交通和聚会吃饭，各占20%；其他项目占20%。
考研图表作文以三段布局为宜。第一段简洁地描述图表。就本文而言，我们可以按照从大到小的顺序依次描述图表中的数据，在描述饼形图时会多次表达“占--- 比例”，要注意措辞变化，避免单调重复，比如可以选用account for，take up，occupy，comprise等。
第二段就图表的内容发表评论。分析原因一般是首选思路。就本文而言，我们可以分析中国某市居民在春节期间花销的不同比例的原因：首先，中国人注重礼尚往来，尤其是根据习俗，过年要给孩子压岁钱，所以春节期间最大的一笔开销就花在新年礼物上；其次，由于中国各地经济发展不平衡，很多内陆省份的年轻人在沿海城市工作，春节期间他们须长途跋涉才能与家人团聚，所以在交通上要花20%的钱；最后，中国人在春节期间经常和亲友一起团聚，所以在聚会吃饭上花的钱占20%。总之，分析原因时只要能自圆其说即可。
文章行文至此，不可戛然而止。在分析了春节期间各种花销的原因之后，我们最好能预测一下该市居民在春节期间花销的未来发展趋势，这样文章才能意思圆满、结构完整。因此，我们还要设计出一个结尾段，指出中国人爱家庭、重感情，随着人们生活水平的提高和中国地区发展差距的缩小，中国人在新年礼物和聚会吃饭上花的钱会更多，但在交通上花的钱会更少。下面请看参考范文：
The pie chart indicates how people of a certain Chinese city spend their money during the Spring Festival: Gifts account for 40% of the expense, followed by feasts and fares, which take up 20% respectively, with other items occupying the last 20%.
It is customary for the Chinese to exchange gifts with other members of their family during the Spring Festival. The most common gifts are “lucky money” given to children. This explains why the largest share of the expense is gifts. Besides, millions of aspiring young people from underdeveloped inland provinces now pursue their dreams in coastal cities. They have to travel a long distance to join their family, entailing a fifth of the expense. The Lunar New Year is also a time for the extended family to dine together, so it is not a surprise that money spent on feasts comprises another fifth of the expenditure.
The Chinese are home-loving and affectionate. It can be predicted that people of this city will spend more money on gifts and feasts, but less on fares during the Spring Festival山东省云服务平台综评入口 as their living standards improve and the regional development gap closes陕西省公务员考试一年几次. (190 words)

6. The Lunar New Year is also a time for the extended family to dine together, so it is not a surprise that money spent on feasts comprises another fifth of the expenditure. 农历新年也是大家庭聚餐的时间，所以花在宴会上的钱自然就占了开支的另外五分之一。the extended family，大家庭，是相对于只包括父母和子女的小家庭（the nuclear family）而言的。
