Write a short report for a university lecturer describing the information in the graph. You should write at least 140 words. The bar chart displays the changes in the number of complaints made by consumers about five kinds of products and services between 1994 and 1997. According to the diagram, there was an increase in the complaints about most of the products and services. The number of complaints about package holidays abroad and financial services increased over the period. The complaints made about the package holidays abroad rose by 12.7% from 15,000 in 1994 to about 18,000 in 1997. And there were about 52,000 complaints about the financial services in 1997, 5.2% up on 1994. There were also more complaints about electric goods and second-hand cars in 1997 than in 1994. The complaints about the two products rose by 9.2% and 6.7% respectively. The former increased from 66,000 in 1994 to about 70,000 in 1997 and the latter went up from 80,000 to 86,000. And clothing is the only sector where the number of complaints dropped over the period. In 1994, there were around 45,000 complaints while the figure decreased by 4% to around 43,000 in 1997.

BEC商务信件写作部分攻略 以下是商业信函的写法： 第一章格式问题 1. 格式问题： 请同学们在BEC的写作中采用平头式的写法。 收信人的姓名和地址置于信纸的左上方 地址、称呼和结束礼词后没有标点符号 日期在右上方 段落从定格开始，段落之间的行距为两行（但在考试中由于受答题卡限制，请同学们酌情考虑） 写信人的名字和头衔在签名下方 2. 称呼和结束礼词的注意事项： Dear Mr John Dear Mr John Smith 3. 日期： 在英国英语中，天在前，但是在美国英语中，月份在前。所以某些特别的时期容易引起误解。例如：12 06 2003 在英国指的是：6月21日 在美国指的是：12月6日 因此日期要写成：12 June 2003 注释：在BEC考试中同学们可以采用恩波所推荐的用法。但是12 06 2003 的用法仍然是可以使用的，因为BEC为英版考试。
在使用捷梯外语培训机构推荐的用法时，要记住月份使用大些字母开头。天后不必写th、rd、nd或者st。 第二章写法问题 预备参加bec考试的同学们由于缺乏商务写作的实际经验，对于写作部分都比较郁闷。捷梯教育结合历年考试实际，为大家准备了15类共计50个经典的实战句型，供大家在考场上使用。我们对每一个句型都模拟了一种环境： 环境： You want to know the prices of some air conditioners. We are interested in your air conditioner and we would like to know the prices of some air conditioners. You saw an advertisement in the newspaper yesterday and you want further information. We are writing in connection with the advertisement in the newspaper yesterday. You want to know if the company you are writing to organizes holidays to Africa. We are writing to inquire about the holidays to Africa that your company organizes. 环境： A company wrote to you on 23 July. They wanted to know if you sell photocopiers. Thank you for your letter of 23 July, asking if we sell photocopiers. A man wrote to you on 18 December. He wanted employment with your company. He also sent his curriculum vitae.
