Changes in People’s Daily Expenses
人们日常开支的变化
What is shown in the table above indicates that dramatic changes have taken place in the people’s daily expenses from 1995 to 1999. The expenses on food have declined by 30% while those on clothing and recreation have increased respectively by 9% and 7% . The statistics of rise and fall seem to exist in isolation but closely related to one another.
上图显示的数据表明从1995年到1999年人们的日常开支发生了很大的变化。食品的开支降低了百分之三十而服装和娱乐的开支增加了百分之九和百分之七。上升和下降的统计数据貌似孤立存在实则密切相关。
There are two factors accounting for these changes. Development in economy is an essential one in the five years. The increased income resulting from economic growth plays an important part in the less expense on food. Hence, a small percentage of total income is enough to cover food expense. Another one is the changes in life style. When food presents no worry to the average, people begin to focus more of interest on handsome appearance and happy leisure time .
这种变化的原因有两个。在这五年内经济的发展是必不可少的原因。经济发展导致的收入增加也是导致食品开支降低的一个重要原因。这样一来总收入的一小部分就足够用于食物花销。另一
个原因是生活方式的改变。当对于普通人来说吃饭已经不再是威胁时，人们就把更多的注意力集中服饰和娱乐中。
As a result of such a shift, spending on clothing and recreation increases year after year.
这种转变的结果就是花费在服装和娱乐上的开支一年比一年多。
From the analyses made above, we may come to the conclusion that people’s living standards have been constantly improved between 1995 and 1999. With the further growth in economy and more changes in life style, the tendency indicated in the table will continue in the better direction.
由以上的分析，我们可以得出结论：人们的生活水平从1995年到1999年逐年提高。随着经济的发展和生活方式的改变，在图表中的这种趋势将更加明显。

网摘点评：该预测题属于图表作文写作，与社会生活密切相关，与1991年6月份四级考试人们饮食结构的变化图表作文写作类似。根据四级图表作文命题规律，第一段描述人们1995到1999年日常开支所发生的巨大变化;第二段分析产生变化的原因;最后一段依据图表所示变化作出了合乎逻辑的预测。文章紧扣主题，条理清楚，语言连贯，表述准确规范，结论合理。
