IELTS Writing Task 1: full essayThe graph below shows the average number of UK commuters travelling each day by car, bus or train between 1970 and 2030.

Line graph

The information presented relates to (what is it about) and the (graph/chart) shows this by .The information presented relates to UK residents traveling back and forth from work and the line graph sows this by the amount of people in millions who use the car, bus, and train.

Generally speaking, (give first general statement). In addition to this clear point, we can also see (second general statement).

Generally speaking, in 1970 the highest use was for the car and the least amount of people relied on the train. In addition to this clear point, we can see that in the last year of 2030, it is predicted that the car will remain at the top and the bottom position will change to the bus.**when we have a line graph look at the beginning year and the ending year to get this information**

(For paragraphs 3 and 4 you want to break a graph into TWO parts. For a line graph, you can normally split it in the middle. IN these paragraphs you are supposed to use the numberscompare the information/numbers)Paragraph 3 (1970 2000)The first specific point to be made is . Another detail is . The first specific point to made is that form 1970 - 1980 the car rose slightly from 5 to about 5.5 million, the bus remained the same, and the car slightly rose from 2 to around 2.5 million. Another detail is that from 1980 2000 about .5 million more people took the train over the bus and for the car it made a big jump from around 5.2 million to 7 million.

Paragraph 4 (2000 2030)Moving on, we can see that . Now only this, but also .In the United Kingdom, the citizens depend on three different types of transportation and the line graph provides us the data in the number of millions over a 60 year period.

Generally speaking, in 1970 the residents relied on the car the most to travel and they depended on the train the least amount. However, when we get projected year 2030, we can see that the car remains at the top, but the bus and train have switched in the lower position.

Paragraph 3 (1970 - 2000)

When we look at 1970 - 1980 we can see that the bus remains stable at around 4 million, while the car rises slightly to around 5.2 million and the train to about 2.2 million respectively. Another detail is that from 1980 2000 about .5 million more people took the train over the bus and for the car it made a big jump from around 5.2 million to 7 million.

Paragraph 4 (2000 - 2030)You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.The graphs show changes in spending habits of people in UK between 1971 and 2001.Write a report to a university lecturer describing the data.Write at least 150 words

Pie ChartThe pie charts reveal differences in UK spending patterns related to seven categories measured in percentages between 1971 and 30 years later, 2001.As an overall trend, the highest spending in 1971 definitely centered on Food and at that time people did not really focus on computers which took the bottom position in spending. The basic trends for 2001 reveal that Cars as the highest spending categories, while it seems that the residents choose to spend a minuscule amount on books in this year.Together Food and Cars comprised over half of household spending in the UK with Food accounting for 44% of spending in 1971 and Cars at 22%. However, the outlay on cars doubled in 2001, rising from 22% in 1971 to 43% in 2001, while Food dramatically fell by 30% from 1971. It appears that Petrol remained fairly consistent over the 30 year period with only a 2% drop.Other areas also changed significantly with spending on eating out doubling, climbing from 7% to 14%. The proportion of salary spent on computers increased dramatically, up from 2% in 1971 to 12% in 2001. However, as computer expenditure rose, the percentage of outlay on books plunged from 6% to 1%.

The chart below shows global sales of the top five mobile phone brands between 2009 and 2013....

Bar graph Here we can see 5 cell phone companies who sold millions of phones in three different years and the bar chart gives us this information. Generally speaking, we can see that for 2009 the high sales went to Nokia and Apple was the lowest position. Next for the year 2011 Nokia had the greatest sales and people bought ZTE the least. Finally for the year 2013, Samsung surpassed everyone in sales and ZTE remained in the lowest spot. Now when we look specifically at Samsung and Apple in 2009 we can see a difference of about 225million in sales and for the year 2011 this number difference is still large with Samsung at around 350 million and Apple at about 75 million. Finally with the year 2013 we can see a sales difference of around 300 million.

Paragraph 4 (ZTE, Nokia, LG).

The table below gives information about the underground railway systems in six cities.

Full essay (band 9):TableThe table shows data about the underground rail networks in six major cities in terms of their age, size and the number of people who use them each year. It is clear that the three oldest underground systems of London, Paris and Tokyo are the largest by far. In addition to this we can see that the youngest systems of Washington, Kyoto and Los Angeles serve significantly less passengers than the older systems.The London underground is the oldest system, having opened in 1863. It is also the largest system, with 394 kilometres of route. The second largest system, in Paris, is only about half the size of the London underground, with 199 kilometres of route. However, it serves more people per year. While only third in terms of size, the Tokyo system is easily the most used, with 1927 million passengers per year.Of the three newer networks, the Washington DC underground is the most extensive, with 126 kilometres of route, compared to only 11 kilometres and 28 kilometres for the Kyoto and Los Angeles systems. The Los Angeles network is the newest, having opened in 2001, while the Kyoto network is the smallest and serves only 45 million passengers per year.(185 words)Yesterday I looked at the following question with my students.

The graph below shows the proportion of the population aged 65 and over between 1940 and 2040 in three different countries. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main feature and make comparisons where relevant.

The diagrams present the plans that they have for a school in 2004 and in 2024.Generally speaking we can see that the amount of school buildings will increase from 2004 to 2024. In addition to this, they will add more roads and car parks to the school over the next 20 years.

First, in comparing the school buildings we can see two buildings in 2004 that are separated by a path; however, in 2024 these same buildings are connected together with a corridor and also a third bigger school building is added. Next, looking at the sports field we can see that they plan to reduce the sports field by half in 2024.

The bar chart below shows the numbers of men and women attending various evening courses at an adult education centre in the year 2009. The pie chart gives information about the ages of these course participants.

We are presented with a bar graph that reveals the amount of women and men who attend drama, painting, sculpture and language classes in an adult school. In addition to this, we are also provided a pie chart which illustrates the ages of the men and women participating in the class.

Generally speaking, the women and men take the sculpture class the least, but they differ on the class most taken with women signing up for language and men for painting. When is comes to the age differences on the Pie Chart, we can see that the oldest group participates in the highest percentage, while the youngest section takes these classes the least.

In Drama we can see that 10 more women took the class than men, but for the Painting class the difference is much smaller at 5. We can see in the Language class that double the amount of women took the class with a total of 40, whereas in the Sculpture class the men numbered 10 and the women 5.

For the age comparisons we can see that 5 times as many 40 year olds took than class than those below 20. In addition to this we can see the smallest difference between the 20s and 30s with a percentage separation of 5%.

The table provides the millions of tourist 5 countries had between 2012 and 2013 and the amount of money they spent for those same two years in those countries.

Generally speaking, France had the highest number of travelers for both years and the Italians traveled the lowest amount of all the countries. In addition to this point, we can obviously see that the USA spent the most money by far in each year, while the Italians take the lowest spot in spending.

Paragraph 3 (Number of Tourist)

With Spain and China, we can see very little differences in these countries with a .2 difference in 2012 and a 5 million tourist difference in 2013. Next, lets take a look France and Italy where the French almost double the Italians in 2012 and surpassed them by 37 million in 2013. Finally the USA made a small jump from 2012 to 2013 of about 3 million.

Paragraph 4 (Spending)

IELTS Writing Task 1: full essayThe graph below shows the average number of UK commuters travelling each day by car, bus or train between 1970 and 2030.

The citizens of the UK rely on the bus, car, and train to travel to work each day and the line graph reveals the amount in millions over a 60 year period.Generally speaking, in the earliest year of 1970 these men and women depended on the car the most and the least amount of people rode the train. In addition to this clear point, when we look at the final year of 2030 it is predicted that the car will still have the most use, but we can see a change to the bus as being the less used. Paragraph 3 (1970 2000)Beginning with 1970 to 1980 the bus use remained constant, while the cars slightly rose to 5.2 million and in a similar fashion the train increased by about .2 million. Moving on to 1980 to 2000, the first notable point is that the car made the biggest jump by a little less than 2 million, while the bus declined steadily from 4 million to around 3.5 million. Finally, the car had a slow rise from around 2.5 to 3 million.Paragraph 4 (2000 -2030)

You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.The graphs show changes in spending habits of people in UK between 1971 and 2001.Write a report to a university lecturer describing the data.Write at least 150 words

The citizens of the UK utilize their money in 7 different categories and the pie charts reveal the percentages for two time periods separated by 30 years.Generally speaking, for the year 1971 these people spent most of their money on food, and took the least interest in computers. However, in 2001 we have a change in these categories with more money being spent on cars and books now taking the bottom space in spending.

Paragraph 3 ( food, cars, computers)When we examine the cars for both years, we can see a 30% drop in spending, but for the cars we can view a 21% increase. In addition to this, the citizens began buying more computers because the percentage rose from 2% to 12%. Paragraph 4 (petrol, books, restaurants, furniture)
