文档介绍：一个地图题的开头:
The map about the development of the village sufficiently illustrates the way of progress of this area. In this map, we can find four main sectors and two main roads intersected with one railway and one motor way. It seems the overall development of this village has strong connection with the construction of roads.
雅思小作文地图题词汇
Part 1:表时间
流程图和地图题中都可能涉及时间表达。流程题中,使用较多的是过程时长的表述,而地图题的时间使用则体现为地理变迁的时间变化。一般在方位选址图题中较少出现。确切的时间指引,既增加文章的自然和连贯度,也能体现行文的精确性。
常见表示时间的词:
in few hours几小时
during the period of …在…期间
after 10 days 10天后
from…to 从…到…
between …and 在…之间
over the…year period在一个…年期间
5 years before 5年前
a decade earlier几十年前
from that moment on从那时起
after a while一会
since自从
since then自从
finally最后
over the subsequent …years近连续几年
例句:The process lasts for up to 7 days and the products are finally distributed to customers.
Part 2:表空间
空间表达地图题出现概率较高,但流程图也偶尔出现。空间应该是地图题解题关键和主要特点。许多考生容易误把地图题的空间位置写成上下左右位置,这是失分点非常大的地方。朗阁海外考试研究中心的专家们提示烤鸭,空间表达时需要注意区分:在空间状语里,in表内部,on表接壤,to表分开。
常用的空间词:
lies 靠近
is located 坐落
is situated in 位于
across 交叉
parallel 平行
intersect 交点
on the …side of the …面
on both sides of 两边
just off …靠近
on the opposite side 在另一边
on the border 在边缘上
center/middle/central area 中间
near/next to/close to/adjacent to 靠近
例句:It lies 450 kilometers from the nearest city, which is on the north side of the KK mountain.
Part 3:表顺序
表顺序的使用在流程图中是典型,表顺序的关联词能够使描述的流程更加清晰,结构条理明显。就如我们常用的产品安装说明一样,标明了1、2、3、4步,简洁明了。常见的表顺序的连词如下:
开始:first of all, initially, to begin with, in the first place, first, the first stage involves …, during, in the first place, Firstly 
其次:second, then, next, also, in the second stage, following this/that, afterwards the first (reason) is, Secondly
然后:after that, at the same time, in the meantime, meanwhile, prior to, until, in the third stage, in addition, at the same time, from that moment on, once when
最终:finally, lastly, in the final stage, in the end, Thirdly
例句:First the fruit is picked from trees by hand. It is then transporte
