The graph below compares changes in the birth rates of China and the USA between 1920 and 2000.
Write a description (of about 150 words) of the trends in the graph.
Em viết phần intro nha:
The chart above decsribes how the birth rates of 2 countries namely China, USA changed in 80 years which started from 1920
Answer:
The line graph compares the birth rates in China and the US and how these rates changed from 1920 to 2000.
Overall, there was a general decline in fertility of both nations throughout the time surveyed. However, the US’s birth rates almost was higher than that of China over the whole period.
American saw a significant fluctuation in the birth rates between 1920 to 1935, but it always remained over 10%. However, in the following decade, the fertility of the US decreased sharply to under 5 %. From 1945 to 1950, there was a rapidly increased in American’s birth rates, at 15%, reaching the highest point of it’s own during the whole period. From that on, the fertility of the US fell gradually to 7% in 2000.
During the 80-year period, the birth rates in China changed more significantly than in the US. It fell down to 5% in the year 1940, then reaching a peak of whole line graph in 1950, at 20%. Over the remainder of the period, China saw a sharply drop in the birth rates to only about 2% until 2000.
The graph below compares the changes in the birth rates of China and the USA between 1920 and 2000.
Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.
Write at least 150 words.
The graph demonstrated some striking similarities between the Chinese and the US birth rates from 1920 to 2000. Both countries experienced considerable fluctuations in the similar period with some lows during the 1940s and some highs during the 1930s.
The birth rates in China rose from 10% in 1920 to 15% in 1935. Later, the figure plunged to a low of 5% in the 1940s and was followed by an exponential growth to the peak of 20% in 1950. Next, the fertility rate dropped sharply to 8% in the following five years. Finally, the figure declined gradually to 3% during the latter half of the century.
Meanwhile, the US had similar birth rate of 12% to that of China in 1920. The figure fluctuated in between 12% and 14% during 1920s and 1930s until it hit a low of 4% in 1945. Five years later, the birth rate reached a peak at 15% in 1950 but it made a steady fall to the final figure of around 7% in 2000.
This report covers the requirements of the task. The main trends / features were sufficiently developed. The candidate has arranged ideas coherently, though the use of linking words can be improved. The range of vocabulary is adequate. There are a few errors in grammar and word choice, and one instance of inaccurate data. Overall, the task response meets the expectations and seems good enough to achieve Band 7.

The line graph compares the fast food consumption of teenagers in Australia between 1975 and 2000, a period of 25
years.
Refer:
The line graph depicts a comparison between the consumption of three categories of fast food eaten by Australian teenagers over 25 year period from 1975 to 2000. In general, there was a gradual fall in consuming fish and chips while pizza and hambergers had an opposite trend.
As the graph shows, the amount of fish and chips peaked at 100 times per year in 1975. Then, there was a fluctuation during period from 1975 to 1985 before standing at about 95 times. Following this, the need for fish and chips significantly decreased to a low of nearly 40 times in 2000.
By contrast, pizza and hamburgers became more popular and their expenditure substantially went up. Looking at the details, pizza’s consumption rised steadily from about 2 times in 1975 to over 80 times in 1995, though its figure leveled off from 1995 to 2000. Likewise, there was a considerable increase of hamburgers’ rate from 5 times to approximately 83 times. This rise was noticeable between 1975 and 1985 but the growth slowed during the remaining period.
