小作文范文
The line graph compares the average height in four countries（Denmark, USA, Great Britain, France）over two centuries from 1775 to 1975. Generally, all the countries experienced an upward trend in their average heights.
 
At the beginning, Americans with average height were the tallest at about 167 cm followed by British (166cm) and Danes(162 cm), whereas Frenchmen were the shortest at around 160 cm.
 
Then, between 1775 and 1875, although there were fluctuations, the average heights had almost remained the same in four countries; however, the datum of Frenchmen surpassed that in Denmark in 1850.
 
After that, the figures regarding the USA and Britain kept at a similar height with an ongoing rising trend to the same height of 180cm in the year 1975. At the same time, Denmark had seen a sharp increase of the average height exceeding that of the other three countries before reaching the peak in 1975 at almost 190 cm, which is a remarkable contrast with the French whose figure was about 173 cm in the end.
