You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.
The
table below shows the figures for imprisonment in five countries between 1930
and 1980.
Write a report for a university, lecturer describing the information shown below.
Write a report for a university, lecturer describing the information shown below.
You should write at least 150 words.
Model answer:
The figures for imprisonment in the five countries listed in the table are inconsistent, with no clear trend of increase or decrease.
In Great Britain, the number of individuals in prison has steadily risen from 30,000 in 1930 to 80,000 in 1980. Conversely, Australia and New Zealand saw a significant drop in their prison populations from 1930 to 1940, but have since gradually increased, except for a 30,000 decrease in New Zealand in 1980. Canada is the only country that has seen a decrease in its prison population from 1930 to 1980, with some fluctuations in the trend. The United States has the highest number of prisoners compared to the other four countries, but it is important to consider the population size when analyzing this data. The rapid increase in the prison population in the United States from 1970 to 1980 is a concerning development.

Model answer:
The data in the chart indicates a steady rise in the number of British households that own various consumer durables from 1972 to 1983. The most significant increase was seen in telephone ownership, going from 42% to 77% in that period. Central heating was the next in line with a rise from 37% to 64% of households having it. The possession of refrigerators increased by 21%, while the ownership of washing machines saw a 14% rise. Vacuum cleaners, televisions and dishwashers experienced a growth of 8%, 5% and 2% respectively. In 1983, the year of its inception, 18% of households had a video recorder.
These statistics showcase the profound social changes that took place during this period. The proportion of British homes with central heating went up from a third to two-thirds and the number of homes with a telephone rose from less than half to over three-quarters. These changes, along with the significant increase in ownership of washing machines and refrigerators, reflect the improvement in living standards and the trend towards a lifestyle centered on comfort and convenience.

Model answer:
The given line graph illustrates information on the number of overseas visitors traveling to Australia in millions of people. Overall, one notable trend seems to be that Australia has steadily become more popular as a destination spot. For example, there were 20 million more visitors to Australia in 2005 than in 1975. That's a jump from 10 million to 30 million in 20 years.
The second table gives statistics showing the countries whose residents went to Australia between 1975 and 2005. In both years, the largest number of visitors came from Japan, followed by South Korea and Europe. Britain, the United States and China also had many people traveling to Australia in these years. In fact, the number of people visiting Australia grew in every one of these countries. For example, in 2005, 12 million people went there from Japan compared with only 3.2 million in 1975.
