 Special language for pie charts ?

A pie chart just shows numbers (the same as graphs, bar

charts and tables), so you just need to learn how to describe
and compare numbers.

 IELTS EXAMINER COMMENTS
The first paraphrase paragraph is clear, concise and uses enough of your own words.
You identified two key features of the charts in your summary paragraph. I can’t improve on
this overview – I choose the same two features.
You organised your detail paragraphs sensibly and this division of paragraphs followed what
you had written in your summary paragraph. All the information is accurately reported in
paragraphs 3 and 4. You also made comparisons between the spending patterns in the two
countries as well as between the different categories of spending.
The report, therefore, is accurate and complete. It is also well-organised with an excellent
overview. I therefore scored 9 for task achievement and coherence/cohesion. In terms of
vocabulary, spending is a useful and exact synonym for expenditure. It is impossible to avoid
repetition of these words – we have to use them several times to make the report clear.
You have tried to vary your sentence structures. I scored 8.5 combined for grammar and
lexical resource and this gives an overall score of 8.5.
