TV的观众从凌晨1点到晚上9点有上升的趋势,从晚上9点开始快速下降
radio的观众从凌晨1点到早上8点一直在缓慢上升,从早上8点到晚上12点在缓慢下降

TV的观众收看的峰值是晚上10点左右,
radio的观众收看的峰值是早上8点左右。

在凌晨1点,TV的观众收视率是大于5%,radio的观众收视率是小于5%。使用TV的人数比使用radio的人数要多一点点。
在早上8点,使用TV的观众依然是5%左右,使用radio的观众是大于25%。此时使用radio的人数远远大于使用TV的人数。
在晚上10点,使用TV的观众是约等于50%,使用radio的观众收视率是约等于5%。此时使用TV的人数远远大于使用radio的人数。

修改后

This line graph gives us information about radio and television audiences during the day in 1992.

Television audiences increased from 1 am to 9 pm, but the audiences rapidly decreased after 9 pm. Radio audiences slowly increased from 1 am to 8 am, and then gradually decreased from 8 am to 12 pm.

Television audiences reached their peak at 10 pm, which was almost 45%. Radio audiences had the highest figure at 8 am, which was more than 25%.

At 1 am, television audiences were more than 5%, while radio audiences were less than 5%. Television audiences were greater than radio audiences.

At 8 am, television audiences were still nearly 5%, but radio audiences were more than 25%. Meanwhile, radio audiences exceeded television audiences.

At 10 pm, television audiences were nearly 50%, while radio audiences were almost 5%. Meanwhile, television audiences were far greater than radio audiences.修改了以下几处错误:

  1. “give” 应改为 “gives”,因为 “line graph” 是单数形式。
  2. “peek” 应改为 “peak”,表示峰值。
  3. “figure in 8 am” 应改为 “figure at 8 am”,表示在早上8点的数据。
  4. “televisions audiences” 应改为 “television audiences”,因为 “television” 是单数形式。
  5. “televisions audiences was more than 5%” 应改为 “television audiences were more than 5%”,因为 “audiences” 是复数形式。
  6. “televisions audiences were more than radio audiences” 应改为 “television audiences were greater than radio audiences”,更准确地表达了两者之间的关系。
  7. “televisions audience was nearly 50%” 应改为 “television audiences were nearly 50%”.
  8. “At the same time” 应改为 “Meanwhile”,更准确地表达了同时发生的情况。
  9. “television audiences were far more than radio audiences” 应改为 “television audiences were far greater than radio audiences”,更准确地表达了两者之间的关系。
