参考范文

As is explicitly depicted in the pie chart, the university students’ purposes of reading on the phone mainly fall into four categories, including learning, killing time, getting information and other unspecified purposes. Learning takes a comparatively large share, accounting for about 60%, while killing time is the runner-up, taking up 21.3% of the whole proportion. It is followed by getting information and other unspecified purposes, which occupy 17% and 2.2% respectively.

Apparently, college students read on their mobile phones with two main purposes: learning and leisure. But what are the reasons accounting for this situation? In the first place, recently China has been characterized by its speedy development in technology. Taking educational mobile apps as an example, they offer students many effective learning tools, which allows students to learn anytime and anywhere. Besides, confronted with stress from study, college students are prone to alleviate mental pressure through mobile phone reading. In addition, more and more undergraduates consider reading via mobile phone as a convenient way to obtain information.

In view of the arguments above, we can conclude that the current phenomenon is of no surprise. If college students can make better use of the advantages of phones, their future will be more promising.

参考译文

如图所示，某高校学生的手机阅读目的主要分为四类：学习知识、消磨时间、获取信息及其他目的。学习的占比相对较大，约为60%，而消磨时间位列第二，占21.3%。其次是获取信息和其他未指明的目的，分别占17%和2.2%。

可明显看出，大学生们使用手机阅读的目的主要有两个：学习和休闲。那么造成这种情况的原因是什么呢？首先，近年来，中国的技术发展迅速。以移动端教育APP为例，它们为学生们提供了很多有效的学习工具，让学生可以随时随地进行学习。而且，面对来自学业的压力，大学生更倾向于通过手机阅读来缓解心理压力。此外，越来越多的大学生认为手机阅读是获取信息的便捷途径。

鉴于上述论点，我们可以得出结论，目前这种现象是意料之中的情况。如果大学生能更充分地利用手机的优点，他们的未来将更加充满希望。
