参考范文
From the chart above, we can see the mobile-phone subscriptions in developed countries have a steady yet slight increase from 2000 to 2008, while in developing countries, there is a sharp increase of mobile-phone users during the past years, and in 2008, the number is 3 times more than that in developed countries.
The factors of population and economy account for this contrast. Firstly, the developing countries have a large population which results in a large demand for mobile service. As the mobile phone service becomes cheaper, more people will benefit from the service. Secondly, although developed countries have reached prosperity in economy, the economy growth is not as fast as that of developing countries. As people in developing countries become increasingly rich, the needs for the mobile-phones are constantly on the rise.
To sum up, it’s not a surprising result. Manufacturers of mobile phones who want to seize the global market should notice this trend and join in the markets in the developing countries.
参考译文
从上面的图表，我们可以看到从2000年到2008年期间，发达国家移动手机的订购量稳步增长，但幅度不大。而在发展中国家，移动手机用户在过去几年间有了大幅增长。在2008年，其订购数量比发达国家多三倍。
人口和经济因素能够解释这种对比。首先，发展中国家人口众多，对移动手机服务的需求很大。随着移动手机的服务变得越来越便宜，从这项服务中受益的人也就变多了。其次，虽然发达国家经济富裕，但经济增长并没有发展中国家那样迅速。随着发展中国家的人变得越来越富裕，他们对移动手机的需求也在不断增加。
总的来说，这种结果并不让人惊讶。想要占领国际市场的移动手机厂商应该注意到这种趋势，并加入发展中国家的市场。
