高分范文 (Band 8+)
The three maps illustrate how the village of Willington transformed over a period of 220 years, from 1780 to 2000.

Overall, Willington evolved from a small agricultural settlement into a largely residential town, with significant developments in infrastructure and the disappearance of its original industries.

In 1780, Willington was a predominantly rural community. The western part was dominated by farmland, while the east contained several large estates. A river flowed from north to south, crossed by a single bridge in the center, with a road running parallel to it.

By 1860, the area had undergone considerable industrialization. The farmlands and estates in the east were replaced by a railway line running vertically, with a new station built nearby. Several factories were constructed along the river, and the original road was expanded. However, the western farmland and the bridge remained largely unchanged.

In 2000, Willington was almost unrecognizable. All the factories and the railway had been removed. The western farmland was completely converted into a suburban housing estate with a new road network. The eastern area saw the construction of a retirement home, a school, and a sports field. The river and bridge were retained, but the bridge was noticeably widened to accommodate increased traffic. The only surviving feature from the earliest period was a small wooded area in the north.

范文结构与精析
第一段：引言 (Introduction)
一句话改写题目：替换同义词（show -> illustrate; changes -> transformed），并概括时间地点。

核心公式：The maps illustrate/compare the developments/changes that took place in [地点] between [年份] and [年份].

第二段：总述 (Overview)
全文最重要的段落！ 必须概括最显著、最宏观的变化趋势，无需数据。

核心内容：本范文抓住了两个核心趋势：1) 从农业村镇变为居住城镇；2) 旧产业消失，基础设施发展。

万能句型：

Overall, the area witnessed a dramatic transformation from... to...

The most striking changes are the expansion of... and the disappearance of...

第三、四、五段：主体段落 (Body Paragraphs)
清晰的时空顺序：范文严格按照时间顺序（1780 → 1860 → 2000） 描述，这是最安全、最清晰的逻辑。

另一可选逻辑：按区域划分（如先描述北部变化，再描述南部变化），适用于多区域对比图，但难度较高。

核心描述聚焦于：

新生事物：was built/constructed/established; emerged; was added.

消失事物：was demolished/removed/pulled down; made way for; disappeared.

保留事物：remained unchanged; was retained; survived.

扩建/改建：was enlarged/extended/expanded; was converted into/redeveloped into; was replaced by/substituted by.

词汇与语法亮点
多样性表达“变化”：transform, evolve, undergo development, be converted into.

精确方位词：to the north/south of, in the northern/southern part, adjacent to, opposite, along, across from.

时态准确：

描述过去地图（1780）：一般过去时。

描述从过去到现在的变化：现在完成时或一般过去时（如was replaced）。

描述当前状态（2000）：一般现在时。

被动语态：大量使用（was built, were removed），因为地图常不体现动作发出者。

地图题必备词汇与短语
方位描述：

In the north-west corner, On the southern bank, At the top/bottom of the map.

地理位置关系：

Next to, Close to, Near, Adjacent to（相邻）

Facing, Opposite（相对）

Between... and...（在...之间）

Surrounded by（被环绕）

变化动词：

新建：Construct, Build, Establish, Set up

拆除：Demolish, Knock down, Remove

扩大：Enlarge, Expand, Extend

缩小：Reduce in size

搬迁：Relocate

变化名词：

Development, Construction, Expansion, Removal, Conversion

给考生的终极建议
永远先写Overview：在动笔前，花1分钟找出2个最核心的总体变化。这是提分关键。

遵循清晰的逻辑：强烈建议按时间顺序描述，不容易混乱。

不要想象，只描述所见：只写地图上明确显示的信息，不要添加个人推测（例如，不要写“因为人口增长”）。

比较与对比：时刻记得比较不同时期的不同点（如：The farmland was replaced by a school）。

练习时画关键词：在真题地图上，用笔圈出“新生、消失、保留、扩大”的事物，帮助自己组织语言。

按照这个结构和思路进行练习，地图题完全可以从小难点变成你的稳定提分项。祝你备考顺利！
