Answer 1

One possible version：

E-commerce, an ever-increasing trend in China

The chart shows China’s e-commerce sales started with only 20 billion USD in 2008, and was about 60% of the US’s in 2011. However, it surpassed the US in 2013, and is expected to double that of the US in the near future.

There are several factors contributing to the rapid growth in e-commerce in China. Firstly, even though the world has experienced a serious economic decline, China has enjoyed a steady growth throughout, leading to people’s income increasing continuously. Secondly, China has a much larger population than the US, possessing the largest number of netizens in the world. Finally, people find it more convenient to shop online, and are more willing to purchase online than ever before.

The speedy e-commerce, I think, is just inevitable. What we should do is find effective ways to regulate the e-shopping market, improve the quality of e-service and prevent cybercrime like phishing, fraud and cheating, so as to enjoy a healthier and more prosperous e-commerce market in China.

【解析】

试题分析：本篇书面表达是一篇图表作文，这类题型具有文字少，信息少，要点分散等特征。我们在写作时要领会图表的全部信息，不要遗漏要点。基本写作模板为：首段要表明图示信息，就本文来说就是要介绍中国电子商务从2008年到2013年逐年增长，而且还超过美国。第二段要得出结论并且分析原因；第三段提出自己的建议或看法。本文中列举的原因较多，要注意使用表示层次或顺序的连接词，以使文章有层次感。此外，在写作时尽量使用多种句式结构来提高文章的档次。

【亮点说明】本文使用经典的三段式结构布局，第一段介绍了图表提示的信息；第二段分析了造成这种状况的几点原因，包括经济稳步增长，人民收入提高，人口大于美国，网上购物方便等等，此段首句为主题句，然后用firstly、secondly、finally等有效的起到连接作用，使文章层次分明，条理清楚。在文章最后作者使用了一个涵盖信息量大的长句提出自己的建议和看法，充分显示了作者驾驭语言的能力。
