✍️ 参考范文

The line graph illustrates changes in banana prices per kilogram in the USA, France, Germany and Japan over the period from 1996 to 2004.

Overall, banana prices in Japan were the highest among the four countries for most of the period, while the USA had consistently the lowest prices. In addition, prices in Japan and Germany saw significant fluctuations, whereas banana costs in France and the USA remained relatively stable.

In detail, the price of bananas in Japan started at 2 US dollars per kilo in 1996, peaking at 3 USD/kg in 1998 before dropping to 2 USD/kg one year later. After fluctuating between 1.5 and 2.5 USD/kg over the following years, it reached 2.5 USD/kg in 2004. By contrast, banana prices in the USA stayed at around 1-1.2 USD/kg throughout the period, ending at roughly 1.2 USD/kg in 2004.

Turning to the other two European countries, banana prices in France remained stable at approximately 2 USD/kg, with a minor dip to 1.5 USD/kg in 1999. In Germany, banana prices stood at 1.5 USD/kg in 1996, bottoming out at 1.2 USD/kg in 1997, then rising to a peak of nearly 2 USD/kg in 2002 before declining slightly to 1.7 USD/kg in 2004.

审题与结构规划

第二组描述两个欧洲国家法国和德国

说明法国价格基本稳定在2美元/千克、仅有1999年小幅下跌的特征；再描述德国价格的先跌后涨再小幅回落的走势，补充关键节点（1997年低点、2002年峰值、2004年终值）。

逻辑与词汇
