Here's the original paragraph, with verbs in the past tense:过去

这是原文，动词用过去式

In 1985, the average person travelled 3,199 miles by car, and this rose to 4,806 miles in the year 2000. The figures for miles travelled by train, long distance bus, taxi and other modes also increased from 1985 to 2000. Travel by taxi saw the most significant change, with more than a threefold increase from 13 miles per person per year in 1985 to 42 miles in 2000.

1985年，平均每人开车行驶3199英里，2000年上升到4806英里。从1985年到2000年，火车、长途汽车、出租车和其他交通方式的英里数也有所增加。乘出租车旅行的变化最为显著，从1985年的每人每年13英里增加到2000年的42英里，增长了三倍多。

Now let's write the same description as a future prediction:未来

现在让我们写下与未来预测相同的描述

In 2025, it is predicted that the average person will travel 3,199 miles by car, and this will rise to 4,806 miles in the year 2030. The figures for miles travelled by train, long distance bus, taxi and other modes are also expected to increase from 2025 to 2030. Travel by taxi should see the most significant change, with a projected increase from 13 miles per person per year in 2025 to 42 miles in 2030.

预计到2025年，平均每人开车行驶3199英里，到2030年将增至4806英里。从2025年到2030年，火车、长途汽车、出租车和其他交通方式的行驶英里数预计也将增加。乘出租车出行将出现最显著的变化，预计将从2025年的每人每年13英里增加到2030年的42英里。

除了上面两种之外,再一起看一下其它时态内容吧!

1. 一般现在时：

一般现在时指的是事情的常态，每篇作文都可以用它来进行总述：

E.g:小作文首段经典句型：The line chart/pie chart/flowchart clearly shows/indicates/suggests that...

2. 一般过去时：

一般过去时指的是过去常常做某事或者对过去的一个动作进行单纯的叙述，只要是小作文中出现过去发生的事情，一定要注意小作文的时态是过去时：

E.g:In conclusion, consumers in Turkey preferred to pour most of their money into bothFood/Drinks/Tobacco and Leisure/Education, while the Italians were likely to invest more moneyin Clothing and Footwear.

3. 比较级和最：

形容词的比较级和最出现在小作文中的几率较高，特别是如果小作文中有好几个数据进行比较的时候，你需要把这种比较说清楚：

E.g:

A：This figure was approximately 2.5% higher than that spent in Turkey, Spain andIreland, and 3.6% higher than thatspent in Sweden.

B：It can be seen from the table that consumers spending on Food/Drinks/Tobaccoaccounted for the largest percentagein all five countries listed in the chart.

4.定语从句：

定语从句可以说是四项考试中的必备良药，但是很多同学不知道定语从句到底怎么用，其实非常简单，就把定语当成被放大的的形容词即可，定语从句由此又称之为：形容词性的从句：

E.g:The graph which describes the trend of the percentage of people who are more than 65years old in 3 developed countries tells us that the phenomenon of the aging of populationhas been becoming increasingly severe during the period of a century.

5. 被动语态：

被动语态是说明文的语体，一篇好的小作文应该是主被动交替使用的，其中主动语态为主，被动语态为辅：

E.g:As can be seen from the graph, the two curves show the flutuation of .......
