The graph and table below give information about water use
worldwide and water consumption in two different countries.
The charts compare the amount of water used for agriculture, industry and
homes around the world, and water use in Brazil and the Democratic Republic of
Congo.
It is clear that global water needs rose significantly between 1900 and 2000, and
that agriculture accounted for the largest proportion of water used. We can also
see that water consumption was considerably higher in Brazil than in the Congo.
In 1900, around 500km³ of water was used by the agriculture sector worldwide.
The figures for industrial and domestic water consumption stood at around one
fifth of that amount. By 2000, global water use for agriculture had increased to
around 3000km³, industrial water use had risen to just under half that amount,
and domestic consumption had reached approximately 500km³.
In the year 2000, the populations of Brazil and the Congo were 176 million and
5.2 million respectively. Water consumption per person in Brazil, at 359m³, was
much higher than that in the Congo, at only 8m³, and this could be explained by
the fact that Brazil had 265 times more irrigated land.

The first chart below gives information about the money spent by
British parents on their children’s sports between 2008 and 2014.
The second chart shows the number of children who participated in
three sports in Britain over the same time period.
The line graphs show the average monthly amount that parents in Britain spent
on their children’s sporting activities and the number of British children who
took part in three different sports from 2008 to 2014.
It is clear that parents spent more money each year on their children’s
participation in sports over the six-year period. In terms of the number of
children taking part, football was significantly more popular than athletics and
swimming.
In 2008, British parents spent an average of around £20 per month on their
children’s sporting activities. Parents’ spending on children’s sports increased
gradually over the following six years, and by 2014 the average monthly amount
had risen to just over £30.
Looking at participation numbers, in 2008 approximately 8 million British

children played football, while only 2 million children were enrolled in swimming
clubs and less than 1 million practised athletics. The figures for football
participation remained relatively stable over the following 6 years. By contrast,
participation in swimming almost doubled, to nearly 4 million children, and
there was a near fivefold increase in the number of children doing athletics.

The bar chart below shows the proportions of English men and
women of different ages who were living alone in 2011. The pie chart
compares the numbers of bedrooms in these one-person households.
The two charts give information about single-occupant households in England in
the year 2011. The bar chart compares figures for occupants’ age and gender, and
the pie chart shows data about the number of bedrooms in these homes.
Overall, females made up a higher proportion of people living alone than males,
and this difference is particularly noticeable in the older age categories. We can
also see that the most common number of bedrooms in a single-occupant home
was two.
A significant majority of the people aged 65 or over who were living alone in
England in 2011 were female. Women made up around 72% of single occupants
aged 75 to 84, and 76% of those aged 85 or over. By contrast, among younger
adults the figures for males were higher. For example, in the 35-49 age category,
men accounted for nearly 65% of people living alone.
In the same year, 35.4% of one-person households in England had two bedrooms,
while one-bedroom and three-bedroom homes accounted for 28% and 29.8% of
the total. Under 7% of single-occupant homes had four or more bedrooms.

The charts below show reasons for travel and the main issues for the
travelling public in the US in 2009.
The bar chart and pie chart give information about why US residents travelled
and what travel problems they experienced in the year 2009.
It is clear that the principal reason why Americans travelled in 2009 was to
commute to and from work. In the same year, the primary concern of Americans,
with regard to the trips they made, was the cost of travelling.
Looking more closely at the bar chart, we can see that 49% of the trips made by
Americans in 2009 were for the purpose of commuting. By contrast, only 6% of
trips were visits to friends or relatives, and one in ten trips were for social or
recreation reasons. Shopping was cited as the reason for 16% of all travel, while
unspecific ‘personal reasons’ accounted for the remaining 19%.
According to the pie chart, price was the key consideration for 36% of American
travellers. Almost one in five people cited safety as their foremost travel concern,
while aggressive driving and highway congestion were the main issues for 17%
and 14% of the travelling public. Finally, a total of 14% of those surveyed thought
that access to public transport or space for pedestrians were the most important
travel issues.

Writing Task 1
The bar chart and table show information about students from
abroad studying in four English-speaking countries in 2004 and
2012.
Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main

features, and make comparisons where relevant.
Write at least 150 words.

Sample Answer
The bar chart shows the number of foreign students studying in four
English-speaking countries in the years 2004 and 2012, while the table
shows foreign students as a percentage of total student numbers in
the countries. We can see that the overall trend is an increase in both
the number and percentage of international students in most
countries.
Starting with the number of students, the USA had the most foreign
students, rising from approximately 179,000 in 2004 to around
245,000 in 2012. The figures for Australia and the UK were similar,
increasing from around 120,000 to almost 200,000. Canada had a
significantly lower number of overseas students than the other
countries, with about 41,000 in 2004 and approximately 61,000 in
2012.
Next, if we look at the percentage of foreign students, we can see that

percentages increased for all countries, with the exception of the USA.
The percentage of foreign students was highest in Australia at 24% of
total student numbers in 2012. In the USA, the percentage of foreign
students remained stable at 2%, which was the lowest percentage of
all four countries.
