【总体分析】:

图表寓意:2018至2020年间,我国快递业务总量连续三年明显上升,农村地区增长量更为迅猛,尤其是 19 至 20年直接翻倍。原因在于随着电子商务的蓬勃发展,网购成为人们的购物首选,收发快递更是家常便饭:疫情期间,宅经济兴起,直播带货火爆,刺激了快递业务的发展:国家致力于完善农村基础设施,增加农村网点覆盖率,推广智慧物流,不断释放农村快递业务的潜力,以推动乡村振兴。谋篇建议:第一段描述图表;第二段明确图表反映的现象,分析原因;第三段阐述现象带来的积极影响。


【范文】:

According to the bar chart, the volume of express parcels across China surged from 5l billion pieces in 2018 to 83 billion pieces in 2020. When it comes to the rural areas, the trend is particularly striking, which doubled to 30 billion pieces in 2020 alone.

This chart reveals the robust growth of China's express delivery sector. It is closely tied to the e-commerce boom. To be specific, as live-streaming e-commerce takes off amid the pandemic, people sheltered at home are more inclined to purchase online, thereby giving impetus to the delivery business. Moreover, the government has made sustained efforts to improve infrastructure in the countryside, which paved the way for the extension of courier services to the vast rural markets. Add to this the increased efficiency of logistics, and it is hardly surprising that the volume of express delivery has continued to soar in recent years.

The burgeoning courier sector not only facilitates people's lives but also provides a massive boost to the country's economy, More significantly, by opening up new employment opportunities for rural residents and promoting sales of agricultural produce, it makes a huge contribution to rural revitalization.

由柱状图可知,中国的快递包裹总量从2018年的510 亿件激增至 2020年的830亿件。具体到农村地区,这一趋势尤其惊人,仅在2020年就翻了一番,达到 300 亿件。

该图展现了我国快递行业的强劲发展。这与电商的繁荣密切相关。具体而言,疫情期间随着电商直播迅速走红,宅在家里的人们更加倾向于网购,从而推动了快递业务的增长。此外,政府一直在不断努力完善农村的基础设施,这为快递服务向广阔的农村市场延伸铺平了道路。再加上物流效率的提升,快递业务量近年来持续猛增,并不令人感到意外。

蓬勃发展的快递业不仅便利了人们的生活,还为国家经济提供了强大动力。更重要的是,它为农村居民带来了新的就业机会、促进了农产品的销售,进而为乡村振兴做出了巨大贡献。
