1、饼图 pie chart C7-TEST4 The pie charts below show units of electricity production by fuel source in Australia and France in 1980 and 2000. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant. (a very good answer) The charts compare the sources of
2、 electricity in Australia and France in the years 1980 and 2000. Between these years electricity production almost doubled, rising from 100 unites to170 in Australia, and from 90 to 180 units in France. In 1980 Australia used coal as the main electricity source (50 units) and the remainder was produ
3、ced from natural gas, hydro power (each producing 20 units) and oil (which produced only 10 units). By 2000, coal had become the fuel for more than 75% of electricity produced and only hydro continued to be another significant source supplying approximately 20%. In contrast, France used coal as a so
4、urce for only 25 units of electricity in 1980, which was matched by natural gas. The remaining 40 units were produced largely from oil and nuclear power, with hydro contributing only 5 units. But by 2000 nuclear power, which was not used at all in Australia, had developed into the main source, produ
5、cing almost 75% of electricity, at 126 units, while coal and oil together produced only 50 units. Other sources were no longer significant. Overall, it is clear that by 2000 these two countries relied on different principal fuel sources: Australia relied on coal and France on nuclear power. C8-TEST2
6、 The three pie charts below show the changes in annual spending by a particular UK school in 1981, 1991 and 2001. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant. (a very good answer) The chart show how much a UK school spent on different r
7、unning costs in three separate years: 1981, 1991 and 2001. In all three years, the greatest expenditure was on staff salaries. But while other workers salaries saw a fall from 28%in 1981 to only 15% of spending in 2001, teachers pay remained the biggest cost, reaching 50% of total spending in 1991 a
8、nd ending at 45% in 2001. Expenditure on resources such as books had increased to 20% by 1991 before decreasing to only 9% by the end of the period. In contrast, the cost of furniture and equipment saw an opposite trend. This cost decreased to only 5% of total expenditure in 1991 but rose dramatical
9、ly in 2001 when it represented 23% of the school budget. Similarly, the cost of insurance saw a rising trend, growing from only 2% to 8% by 2001. Overall, teachers salaries constituted the largest cost to the school, and while spending increased dramatically for equipment and insurance, there were c
10、orresponding drops in expenditure on things such as books and on other workers salaries. C8-TEST1 The pie chart below shows the main reasons why agricultural land becomes less productive. The table shows how these causes affected three regions of the world during the 1990s. Summarise the information
11、 by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant. (a very good answer) The pie chart shows that there are four main causes of farmland becoming degraded in the world today. Globally, 65% of degradation is caused by too much animal grazing and tree clearance, constit
12、uting 35% and 30% respectively. A further 28% of global degradation is due to over-cultivation of crops. Other causes account for only 7% collectively. These causes affected different regions differently in the 1990s, with Europe having as much as 9.8% of degradation, while the impact of this on Oce
13、ania and North America was minimal, with only 1.7% and 0.2% of land affected respectively. Europe, with the highest overall percentage of land degradation (23%), also suffered from over-cultivation (7.7%) and over-grazing (5.5%). In contrast, Oceania had 13% of degraded farmland and this was mainly
14、due to over-grazing (11.3%). North America had a lower proportion of degraded land at only 5%, and the main couses of this were over-cultivation (3.3%) and, to a lesser extent, over-grazing (1.5%). Overall, it is clear that Europe suffered more from farmland degradation than the other regions, and t
15、he main causes there were deforestation and over-cultivation. 线图 line graph C3-TEST4 The graph below shows the unemployment rates in the US and Japan between March 1993 and March 1999. Write a report for a university lecturer, describing the information shown below. (7 score) According to the result
16、s of the labor-force research published recently, the following conclusions can be draw from it: In March, 1993, United States had seven percent of their workforce which might not seem disastrous until compared with Japan, where 2.5% were unemployed. However, the unemployment rate in United States b
17、egan declining slowly since March 1993, and reached 5% mark in the middle of 1996. Japan turned out to be less lucky, as their unemployment rate doubled in three years. From then on, the percentage of unemployed workforce in United States remained roughly the same about 5% until March 99, although t
18、here were minor falls and rises in the unemployment rate. As for Japan, the percentage of unemployed fell rapidly by 0.5-0.6% after March 1996, but from summer 1996 and onwards it grew steadily and without any falls to reach 5.0% boundary in March 1999. The major conclusion that Ive drawn using the
19、graph, is that number of unemployed in USA decreased by about 2.0% in the course of six years, while in Japan it actually increased by 2.5% percent. As a result, in March 99, both Japan and US had about 5% of their work force unemployed. C5-TEST1 The graph below shows the proportion of the populatio
20、n aged 65 and over between 1940 and 2040 in the three different countries. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant. (a very good answer) The graph shows the increase in the ageing population in Japan, Sweden and the USA. It indicates
21、 that the percentage of elderly people in all three countries is expected to increase to almost 25% of the respective populations by the year 2040. In 1940 the proportion of people aged 65 or more stood at only 5% in Japan, approximately 7% in Sweden and 9% in the US. However, while the figures for
22、the Western countries grew to about 15% in around 1990, the figure for Japan dipped to only 2.5% for much of this period, before rising to almost 5% again at the present time. In spite of some fluctuation in the expected percentages, the proportion of older people will probably continue to increase
23、in the next two decades in the three countries. A more dramatic rise is predicted between 2030 and 2040 in Japan, by which time it is thought that the proportion of elderly people will be similar in the three countries. C7-TEST2 The graph below shows the consumption of fish and some different kinds
24、of meat in a European country between 1979 and 2004 in the three different countries. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant. (a very good answer) The graph illustrates changes in the amounts of beef, lamb, chicken and fish consume
25、d in a particular European country between 1979 and 2004. In 1979 beef was by far the most popular of these foods, with about 225 grams consumed per person per week. Lamb and chicken were eaten in similar quantities (around 150 grams), while much less fish was consumed (just over 50 grams). However,
26、 during this 25-year period the consumption of beef and lamb fell dramatically to approximately 100 grams and 55 grams respectively. The consumption of fish also declined, but much less significant to just below 50 grams, so although it remained the least popular food, consumption levels were the mo
27、st stable. The consumption of chicken, on the other hand, showed an upward trend, overtaking that of lamb in 1980 and that of beef in 1989. By 2004 it had soared to almost 250 grams per person per week. Overall, the graph shows how the consumption of chicken increased dramatically while the populari
28、ty of these other foods decreased over the period. C8-TEST4 The graph below shows the quantities of goods transported in the UK between 1974 and 2002 by four different modes of transport. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant. (8
29、score) The graph illustrates the quantities of goods transported in the United Kingdom by four different modes of transport between the time period of 1974 and 2002. Over this span of 28 years, the quantities of goods transported by road, water and pipeline have all increased while the quantity tran
30、sported by rail has remained almost constant at about 40 million tonnes. The largest quantity of goods transported both in 1974 and 2002 was by road (70million tonnes and 98 million tonnes respectively) while the lowest both in 1974 and 2002 was by pipeline (about 5 million tonnes and 22 million ton
31、nes respectively). The amount of goods transported by water was constant from 1974 to 1978, where it showed an exponential growth, rising to almost 60 million tonnes after which it plateayed for about 20 years before starting to rise gradually again. The amount of goods transported by rail is almost
32、 constant at 40 million tonnes in 1974 and 2002, with decreases in quantity in between the years. It is also interesting to note that almost all showed a decrease in 1994 in amount of goods transported except for the pipeline, which actually peaked in that year. In conclusion the road remains the mo
33、st popular method of transporting goods in the UK while water and pipelines are becoming increasingly used, have not become more popular as a method of transport. C3-TEST1 The charts below show the number of Japanese tourists travelling abroad between 1985 and 1995 and Australias share of the Japane
34、se tourists market. Write a report for a university lecturer, describing the information shown below. (5 score) This chart shows us that Japanese tourists go abroad for travelling in a decade and Australians share of marketing for Japanese tourists. Between 1985 and 1995 Japanese tourists travelling
35、 abroad was dramatically increased. In 85 there was about 5million travellar go abroad. Since 85 number of traveller went up dramatically until 90. It was alomost twice then between 90 and 93 the number remain stateable, which is about 12 millions. From 93 to 95 it rose slightly. Therefore in 1995 t
36、here were about 15 millions people went abroad. I am going to write about the other chart, which is Australians share of Japaneses tourist market. This is also between 1985 and 1995. About 2 million Japanese tourist went to Australia in 1985. Between 85 and 89 people went there is increased sharply,
37、 which is almost 3 times more. In 1990 it fall number slightly but from 90 to 94 number is went up. However 94 to 95 is not so went up number of people who went to Australia. It rimain is the same or slightly decreased. (The writer does what is required of her in terms of task fulfillment, and the m
38、essage can be followed, but the weakness in grammatical control and in spelling cause difficulty for the reader. Complex sentence structures are attempted, but the greatest level of accuracy are found in basic, simple structures.) C4-TEST4 The chart below give information about travel to and from UK
39、, and about the most popular countries for UK residents to visit. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant. (5 score) The graphs reveal an information about overseas residents travel to UK and UK residents travel to other countries,
40、and where they visited more. According to the chart of visit to and from UK, UK residents had visited abroad more than overseas residents visited UK. UK residents traveling were increased slightly till 1986, after that, there was a dramatic rise from 20 millions to 54 millions till 1999. In contrast
41、, overseas residents were increased gradually in traveling to UK from 10 million to 28 millions between 1979 and 1999. From the information shown, we can see that France was the most popular country visited by UK residents, accounting for 11 millions. And the others countries visited by UK residents
42、 were Turkey, Greece and USA, which were 3, 4 and 5 millions. (The response is under-length. The candidate reports the key information in the first graph i.e. that visits to and from UK increased and that the increase in visits from UK was more maked than that of visits to the country. In the bar ch
43、art the information is also reported accurately. However, the references to the overall structure of the writing is clear, with some use of basic discourse markers. There is very little use of reference, however, resulting in a considerable amount of repetition of key vocabulary. There is a fairly n
44、arrow range of sentence types and errors occur in verb formation and in the use of tenses.) C6-TEST1 The graph and table below give information about water use worldwide and water consumption in two different countries. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make
45、 comparisons where relevant. (a very good answer) The graph shows how the amount of water used worldwide changed between 1900 and 2000. Throughout the century, the largest quantity of water was used for agricultural purpose, and this increased dramatically from about 500 km3 to around 3,000 km3 in t
46、he year 2000. Water used in the industrial and domestic sectors also increased, but consumption was minimal until mid-century. From 1950 onwards, industrial use grew steadly to just over 1,000 km3, while domestic use rose more slowly to only 300 km3, both far below the levels of consumption by agric
47、ulture. The table illustrates the differences in agricultural consumption in some areas of the world by contrasting the amount of irrigated land in Brazil (26,500 km2) with that in the D.R.C. (100 km2). This means that a huge amount of water is used in agriculture in Brazil, and this is reflected in
48、 the figures for water consumption per person: 359 m3 compared with only 8 m3 in the Congo. With a population of 176 million, the figures for Brazil indicate how high agricultural water consumption can be in some countries. C4-TEST2 The graph below shows the demand for electricity in England during
49、typical days in winter and summer. The pie chart shows how electricity is used in an average English home. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
