2012考研英语（二）真题大作文部分专项点评

　　教育部明确规定，考研英语的考试在2010年分为英语一和英语二。进行英语二的考试已经是第三个年头。总体而言，英语二的题型和往年没有多少变化，一切以当年的大纲为依托。所以考生在平时复习的时候，一定要按照大纲的命题方向来进行。
　　对于英语二大作文部分，基本上有两个小小的规律
　　1、考查的主要形式还是图表作文。所以大家在平时复习相关内容的时候一定要有针对性，对症下药。根据划分，表格有多种类型。尽管如此，但所考查的表格形式一般都不会太难、太偏，都比较直观。今年刚考查作文题目就是一个table的表格，能够很清楚地明了表格所给出的信息。所以我们在平时有必要熟记一些常用有关图表作文的表达句子等。
