IELTS Writing - Task 1 - Table (The carbon dioxide emissions of five countries in 2020)

Wednesday, March 15, 2023

The table below describes the carbon dioxide emissions of five countries in 2020, based on data from the Global Carbon Project. Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information shown.


The table describes the carbon dioxide emissions of five countries in 2020,


Model Answer


The table shows the carbon dioxide emissions of five countries in 2020, measured in millions of metric tons. China had the highest carbon dioxide emissions, with 10,162.91 million metric tons, followed by the United States with 4,562.27 million metric tons. India, Russia, and Japan had lower carbon dioxide emissions, with 2,624.85 million metric tons, 1,515.20 million metric tons, and 1,088.68 million metric tons, respectively.

Overall, the table highlights the significant contribution of China and the United States to global carbon dioxide emissions, which are major contributors to climate change. It is also noteworthy that while India has a lower carbon footprint than China and the United States, its emissions are still substantial, reflecting its rapid economic growth and increasing energy demand. Russia and Japan, on the other hand, have relatively lower emissions, possibly due to their emphasis on energy efficiency and renewable energy.

In conclusion, the table underscores the urgent need for global cooperation and concerted efforts to reduce carbon emissions and mitigate the impacts of climate change. It is crucial that countries take proactive steps to transition to cleaner and sustainable energy sources, while also adopting measures to promote energy efficiency and conservation. Only through collective action can we hope to address the challenges posed by climate change and ensure a sustainable future for all.

IELTS Writing - Task 1 - Bar Chart (Imprisonment in Five Countries)

Sunday, August 7, 2011

Topic:

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.
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.

The sales at this small restaurant during the week of October 7 to 13th followed a fairly set pattern from Monday to Friday, and then showed notable shift on the weekend. The lunch and dinner sales during the week peaked on Friday and then dipper down as the weekend set in.

During the week of October 7-14th, the lunch sales averaged at approximately $2,400. The highest lunch sales occurred on Friday, and the lowest occurred on Sunday. Sunday's lunch sales were approximately $1,000 less than the average lunch sales during the rest of the week.

Dinner sales, which generated at least $1,000 to $1,500 more a day than lunch sales, also remained steady during the week. Just like the lunch sales, the dinner sales peak on Friday and dipped down for the weekend.

Excluding Wednesday and Thursday, the lunch and dinner sales from October 7-11 rose gradually until the end of the business week. Midweek, on Wednesday and Thursday, the sales were slightly lower than they were on Tuesday.

According to the sales report, this restaurant has a steady lunch and dinner crowd. The most profitable day during the second week of October was Friday. Sunday, was the least profitable day, with the full day's sales totaling/totalling less than the Friday dinner sales. These numbers are reflective of a restaurant that is located in a business/financial district where business hours are Monday through Friday.

IELTS Writing - Task 1 - Table (Families in Australia)

Wednesday, July 13, 2011

You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.
The table below shows the proportion of different categories of families living in poverty in Australia in 1999.

Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
You should write at least 150 words.

Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

couple, no children

sole parent

couple with children

all households
6% (54,000)

4% (48,000)

19% (359,000)

7% (211,000)

21% (232,000)

12% (933,000)

11% (1,837,000)

Model answer:
The table gives a breakdown of the different type of family who were living in poverty in Australia in 1999.

On average, 11% of all households, comprising almost two million people, were in this position. However, those consisting of only one parent or a single adult had almost doubt this proportion of poor people, with 21% and 19% respectively.

Couples generally tended to be better off, with lower poverty levels for couples without children (7%) than those with children (12%). It is noticeable that for both types of household with children, a higher than average proportion were living in poverty at this time.

Older people were generally less likely to be poor, though once again the trend favoured eldery couples (only 4%) rather than single elderly people (6%).
Overall the table suggests that households of single adults and those with children were more likely to be living in poverty than those consisting of couples.

IELTS Writing - Task 1 - Table (Percentages of home schooled students in SomeCountry)

Tuesday, July 12, 2011

The table below describes percentages of home schooled students in SomeCountry in 1999-2004. Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information shown.

You should write at least 150 words.

This table shows home schooled students in Somecountry in year 1999-2004 in percentages.
Model answer:


The main trend is that all grades including kindergarten is growing every year. Kindergarten started highest at 2.4 and ended with percentage of 2.9 percent with a constant increase. But grades 1-2 and grades 5-6 show a little different trend, both started at 1,5 percent in 1999 and declines (declined) a little bit in 2000. Both of them increased slowly in 2002 and both held that course to 2004 where grades 1-2 reached 2,1 percent and grades 5-6 reached 2.6 percent.
Grades 3-4 had a slow but steady growth throughout all six years. It started at 1.6 percent in 1999 and increased by 0.1 every year except in 2003 when it peaked up at 0.2 percent. Grades 7-8 started at 1.6 percent and stays there for three years until it rapidly rised up to 2.2 and peaked at 2.5 in 2004.
Overall, all grades including kindergarten has had a rise at roughly minimum 1 percent and more in 6 years. 
This is a good report; here is how you can make it better: the coherence needs improvement, meaning the logical connection between sentences inside a paragraph and between paragraphs. Use more connective words (Furthermore, However, etc). 
The groupings you’ve done are fine, but try to use more variations describing those statistics: use words such as numbers, figures, percentages, etc. The grammar and the spelling need some extra attention

The diagram below shows how a central heating system in a house works.

Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
You should write at least 150 words.
IELTS
Model answer:
This diagram provides an overview of a domestic central heating system. It shows how the tank, boiler and pipes ensure a constant flow of hot water to both the radiators and the taps.

The cold water enters the house and is stored in a water storage tank in the roof. From there ü flows down to the boiler, located on the ground floor of the house.

The boiler, which is fuelled by gas or oil, heats up the water as it passes through it. The hot water is then pumped round the house through a system of pipes and flows into the radiators, located in different rooms. The water circulates through the radiators, which have small tubes inside them to help distribute the heat, and this warms each of the rooms. Some of the water is directed to the taps to provide hot water for the house.

Once the water has been through the pipes and radiators, it is returned to the boiler to be re-heated and circulated round the house again.
Introduction: First sentence. Overview: Second sentence.

Key features: Entry of cold water into boiler; circulation of hot waterto radiators and taps; return of water to boiler.

Supporting information: direction of flow; types of boiler; location of radiators; radiator tubes

Paragraph breaks: The paragraph breaks mark stages in the process.

Linkers: and, from there, then, once, again Reference words: it, both, there, which, this

Topic vocabulary: enters, stored, roof, flows, ground floor, located, passes, pumped, system, circulates, heat, directed, returned, re-heated

Less common vocabulary: ensure, fuelled by, heats up, distribute the heat, warms

Structures: An appropriate mix of active and passive structures and a range of sentence types are used.

Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information shown below.
You should write at least 150 words.











Model answer:
The table shows two sets of related information: the relative cost, in pounds, of renting a property with one, two or three bedrooms in three different suburbs of London and an indication of the kind of annual salary you would need to be earning to rent in these areas.

Of the three areas mentioned, Notting Hill is the most expensive with weekly rents starting at £375 (salary approximately f 100,000) and rising to £738 per week for a 3-bedroom property. To afford this, you would require a salary in the region of £200,000 per annum. Alternatively, Fulham is the cheapest area shown with rents ranging from £215 per week for a one bedroom property to £600 per week for a 3-bedroom property. To rent in this area, salaries need to be somewhere between £85,000 and £170,000 depending on the number of bedrooms required. For those able to pay in the middle price range for accommodation, Regent's Park might be a more suitable district.
