The graph below shows the consumption of fish and different kinds of meat in a European country between

1979 and 2004 Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant Write at least 150 words

The graph illustrates the quantities of fish and different kinds of meats consumed in a European country between the time period of 1979 and 2004 Over this span of 25 years, the consumption of beef, lamb and fish have all decreased while the consumption of chicken has dramatically risen.

The biggest consumption in 1979 was beef (about 220 grams per person was consumed every week) while the lowest consumption in 1979 was fish (around 60 gram per week was consumed by a person) The amount of fish which was eaten has remained almost constant at about 50 grams from 1979 and 2004 The trends of beef and lamb consumption were similar, with decreases in amount in between the years While beef consumption had declined from over 200 grams per person per week to around 100 grams during 25 years, lamb’s was starting 150 grams to approximately 50 grams at the same period.

In contrast, chicken consumption had grown up gradually to year of 194, reaching a peak at 250grams per person every week in between 1994 and 2004.

The graph below shows the proportion of the population aged 65 and over between 1940 and 2040 in three different countries Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant Write at least 150 words

The line graph compares the percentage of people aged 65 or more in three countries over a period of

100 years.

It is clear that the proportion of elderly people increases in each country between 1940 and 2040 Japan

is expected to see the most dramatic changes in its elderly population.

In 1940, around 9% of Americans were aged 65 or over, compared to about 7% of Swedish people and 5%

of Japanese people The proportions of elderly people in the USA and Sweden rose gradually over the next 50 years, reaching just under 15% in 1990 By contrast, the figures for Japan remained below 5% until the early 2000s.

Looking into the future, a sudden increase in the percentage of elderly people is predicted for Japan, with a jump of over 15% in just 10 years from 2030 to 2040 By 2040, it is thought that around 27% of the Japanese population will be 65 years old or more, while the figures for Sweden and the USA will be slightly lower, at about 25% and 23% respectively.

The graph below shows the number of Internet users as percentage of population Summarise the information

by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant Write at least 150 words

The line graph compares the percentage of people in three countries who used the Internet between

1999 and 2009.

It is clear that the proportion of the population who used the Internet increased in each country over the period shown Overall, a much larger percentage of Canadians and Americans had access to the Internet in comparison with Mexicans, and Canada experienced the fastest growth in Internet usage.

In 1999, the proportion of people using the Internet in the USA was about 20% The figures for Canada and Mexico were lower, at about 10% and 5% respectively In 2005, Internet usage in both the USA and Canada rose to around 70% of the population, while the figure for Mexico reached just over 25%.

By 2009, the percentage of Internet users was highest in Canada Almost 100% of Canadians used the Internet, compared to about 80% of Americans and only 40% of Mexicans.

The bar chart shows the relative electricity consumption and cost per year of various household devices Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant Write at least 150 words

The bar chart compares the energy consumption and expense of operating 16 different items of

household equipment Overall, we can see significant differences in both cost and consumption.

To begin with, there are some common household items which consume relatively little energy These include an electric blanket (approx $10 or 100kwh/year), a microwave oven (approx $15 or 150kwh/year) and a television (approx $17 or 170kwh/year).

By contrast, devices that might be classified as ‘luxury’ items such as a pool pump or spa are

comparatively expensive and energy-intensive, at nearly $125 or 1500kwh/year and around $190 or 2225kwh/year respectively.

It is interesting to note that even among household items normally considered alike, such as a microwave and refrigerator, there are enormous discrepancies in cost and energy use The former uses only around

$15 or 150kwh/year, while the latter consumes at least six times that amount at $90 or 1150kwh/year.

In conclusion, it appears that there is no clear pattern in the relative energy consumption of domestic equipment, although households had better be aware of the high running costs of luxury items such as a pool pump and spa.

The bar chart below shows the percentage participation of men in senior development in three companies between 1980 and the year 2010 Summarise the information by selecting and report in the main features, and make comparisons where relevant Write at least 150 words

The bar chart shows the percentage of men in senior development position in three companies from 1980

to 2010.

While more men were in senior positions at Apple than other two companies in 1980 at 15%, the trend was fairly erratic with a 2% drop to 13% in 1985, followed by a rise of 1% five years later In 1995, men held 7% more top development jobs than in 1990 After a slight drop back to 19% in 2000, by 2010 25% of top posts were filled by men.

By contrast, at IBM men fared much better In 1980, 2% of senior posts were occupied by men with no change five years on By 1990, the figure had increased to 13%, doubling to 26 per cent in 1995 Five years afterwards, there was a 6% increase in male senior development jobs with a near twofold jump in

2010 to stand at 63%, the highest for the three companies.

The situation was less remarkable at Microsoft than the other two firms except for the year 2010 In

1980, the percentage of senior posts held by men was 8% climbing at the rate of 2% in each subsequent period until 2000, after which it leapt to 45% From the data, it is clear that men dominated senior posts

at IBM by 2010.

The chart below shows numbers of incidents and injuries per 100 million passenger miles travelled (PMT) by transportation type in 2002 Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant Write at least 150 words

The bar chart compares the number of incidents and injuries for every 100 million passenger miles

travelled on five different types of public transport in 2002.

It is clear that the most incidents and injuries took place on demand-response vehicles By contrast, commuter rail services recorded by far the lowest figures.

A total of 225 incidents and 173 injuries, per 100 million passenger miles travelled, took place on demand-response transport services These figures were nearly three times as high as those for the second highest category, bus services There were 76 incidents and 66 people were injured on buses Rail services experienced fewer problems The number of incidents on light rail trains equalled the figure recorded for buses, but there were significantly fewer injuries, at only 39 Heavy rail services saw lower numbers of such events than light rail services, but commuter rail passengers were even less likely to experience problems In fact, only 20 incidents and 17 injuries occurred on commuter trains.

The chart illustrates the amount of money spent on five consumer goods (cars, computers, books, perfume and cameras) in France and the UK in 2010 Units are measured in pounds sterling.

Overall, the UK spent more money on consumer goods than France in the period given Both the British and the French spent most of their money on cars whereas the least amount of money was spent on perfume in the UK compared to cameras in France Furthermore, the most significant difference in expenditure between the two countries was on cameras.

In terms of cars, people in the UK spent about £450,000 on this as opposed to the French who spent

£400,000 Similarly, the British spent more money on books than the French (around £400,000 and

£300,000 respectively) In the UK, expenditure on cameras (just over £350,000) was over double that of France, which was only £150,000.

On the other hand, the amount spent on the remaining goods was higher in France Above £350,000 was spent by the French on computers which was slightly more than the British who spent £300,000 Neither

of the countries spent much on perfume which accounted for £200,000 of expenditure in France but under £150,000 in the UK.

The bar chart illustrates how many children, divided by gender, played six kinds of sports (tennis,

badminton, cycling, swimming, football and hockey) in a town in England in 2012.

Overall, the number of boys playing sport exceeded that of girls in the given period and the sport with the most significant difference between the genders was football Football was also the most popular sport for boys while the majority of girls preferred swimming Furthermore, both males and females least preferred playing hockey.

There were four sports in which boys participated more than girls While 60 boys played football, the number of girls playing that sport was considerably lower (around 20) With regards to tennis, the figure for boys who played that sport was 50 as opposed to just under 40 for girls Similarly, more boys cycled than girls (approximately 35and 20 respectively) The difference, in terms of hockey, was minimal with only about 5 more boys playing that sport than girls.

On the other hand, more girls took part in the two remaining sports which both showed a difference of about 10 between the genders As many as 50 girls preferred swimming in comparison to 40 girls for badminton.

The following pie charts show the results of a survey into the most popular leisure activities in the United States of America in 1999 and 2009 Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant You should write at least 150 words

The graphs reveal information about the most common leisure activities which the American engaged in between 1999 and 2009.

Overall, the largest percentage of people living in the US enjoyed walking.

As can be seen clearly, the figures for soccer, camping and walking increased slightly by 1%-2% to 18%, 9% and 31% respectively during the ten-year period On the other hand, there was a nearly doubling in the proportions of people joining in yoga (5 to 10 % ) and swimming ( 9 to 18% ) over the same period.

By contrast, the period shown witnessed a significant decrease in the percentages of American people participating in the remaining activities To be more specific, the figure for jogging nearly halved from 7% to 3% What is more, there was a dramatic fall in the proportion of aerobics players from 13% to 4% from 1999 to 2009 Finally, when it comes to bicycling, the figure for this activity dropped from 14% to 7%.

The pie charts below show the comparison of different kinds of energy production of France in two years Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant You should write at least 150 words

The two pie charts illustrate five types of energy production in France in 1995 and 2005.

Overall, in both years, the most significant sources of energy were gas and coal, which together

accounted for over half the production of energy, while nuclear and other kinds of energy source generated the least amount of energy in France In all types of energy production there was only minimal change over the 10 year period.

Energy produced by coal comprised of 29.80% in the first year and this showed only a very slight

increase of about a mere 1 % to 30.9% in 2005 Likewise, in 1995, gas generated 29.63% which rose

marginally to 30.1% 10 years later.

With regards to the remaining methods of producing energy, there was an approximate 5% growth in production from both nuclear power and other sources to 10.10% and 9.10% respectively Petrol, on the other hand, was the only source of energy which decreased in production from 29.27% in 1995 to around a fifth (19.55%) in 2005.

2002 Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant Write at least 150 words

The table illustrates the proportion of national expenditure in Ireland, Italy, Spain, Sweden and Turkey on three categories of items in 2002.

Overall, all countries spent most on food, drinks and tobacco, which was almost three times that of the other items The lowest expenditure was on leisure and education in the five countries The expenditure

of Turkey overall was higher than the other countries.

In terms of food, drinks and tobacco, Turkey spent the most at 32.14% The expenditure of Ireland was also high (28.91%) compared to Sweden which spent the least (15.77%) Spain and Italy spent 18.80% and 16.36% respectively.

Italy spent more than the other countries on clothing and footwear (9%) as opposed to the lowest expenditure which could be seen in Sweden at 5.40% The other three countries spent on average around 6.5%.

The lowest expenditure was on leisure and education which accounted for under 5% in all countries Turkey spent most on these items at just 4.35% of their national expenditure which is around double that

of Spain who spent the least at just 1.98%.

The table below gives information about the underground railway systems in six cities Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant Write at least 150 words

The table shows data about the underground rail networks in six major cities The table compares the six networks in terms of their age, size and the number of people who use them each year.

Overall, it is clear that the three oldest underground systems are larger and serve significantly more passengers than the newer systems.

The London underground is the oldest system, having opened in 1863 It is also the largest system, with

394 kilometres of route The second largest system, in Paris, is only about half the size of the London underground, with 199 kilometres of route However, it serves more people per year While only third in terms of size, the Tokyo system is easily the most used, with 1927 million passengers per year.

Of the three newer networks, the Washington DC underground is the most extensive, with 126 kilometres

of route, compared to only 11 kilometres and 28 kilometres for the Kyoto and Los Angeles systems The Los Angeles network is the newest, having opened in 2001, while the Kyoto network is the smallest and serves only 45 million passengers per year.
