When you describe the graph and if you are not getting what to say ,you can firstly describe what the image is depicting with words like the graph shows ,illustrates or depicts. You can say about the numbers which are on the vertical axis and the years which are on the horizontal axis , following this you can add the units like the graph has degree Celsius as unit or the million dollars or percentage .

Write from 5-30 words at a max (Which i always suggest to my students) with only 1 full stop and Capital letter at the beginning. Search for the main keywords of the topic in the first line only and and after reading the lower paragraphs you will be able to make a good summary , and try to write in your own words by paraphrasing the words and sentences and using Conjunctions.
