The graph below shows the number of enquiries received by the Tourist Information
Office in one city over a six-month period in 2011.

BÀI MẪU

The line chart illustrates the number of inquiries sent to the Tourist Information Office
in a particular city via three means of communication, between January and June in
2011.

It is clear that visitors to the city made more inquires in person and via telephone, while
written letters and emails became the least common choices. Additionally, the number
of enquiries in person experienced the most dramatic change among the different
options.

In January, the Tourist Information Office received 900 telephone enquiries, while just
under 800 letters and emails were received. Not many tourists chose to ask for
information in person, with just over 400 queries. Over the next three months, the
telephone still remained the most popular method of enquiry, at approximately 1000
queries.

Meanwhile, the number of enquires made in person saw considerable growth to 800,
surpassing the figures for emails and postal enquires. From March to June, enquires in
person were the most common method of inquiry. By June, the number of in person
enquires soared by more than 1,000 to peak at 1,900. During this period, there was also
a significant rise in the figure for telephone enquiries, from 1000 to 1600. By contrast,
fewer people sent emails or letters to make enquires, with slightly less than 400
enquires in May and June.

The table shows the number of employees and factories producing silk in England
and Wales between 1851 and 1901.

BÀI MẪU

The table provides information about the workforce in silk production, in two countries,
England and Wales, over a period of 50 years, starting from 1851.

It is clear that the total number of silk workers in the two countries declined over the
period, and that significantly more women were employed than men in this industry.
Also, the number of silk manufacturing factories increased over the 50 year period,
despite some fluctuations.

In 1851, the silk workforce was at its peak, with 130,750 employees, including 76,786
females and approximately 54,000 males. In contrast, the number of silk factories was
at its lowest in 1851, at only 272. However, ten years later, the number of silk factories
had almost tripled, reaching 761, while the total number of employees experienced a
significant fall of over 20,000 people.

Over the following 40 years, the total number of female and male workers gradually
decreased throughout the period, to 25,567 and 13,375 respectively, which resulted in
a drop in the total number of employees, at 38,942 in 1901. Meanwhile, the number of
silk factories experienced a gradual decline over these 40 years, from 761 in 1861 to
623 in 1901.

The diagram below shows how orange juice is produced.

Tham gia hội tự học IELTS uy tín nhất: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ielts.share/


BÀI MẪU

The diagram illustrates the process of producing of orange juice.

There are various stages in the process of making orange juice, beginning with the
collection of fresh oranges and ending with the distribution of packaged juice to
supermarkets.

Firstly, oranges are picked, loaded onto trucks, and delivered to a processing plant
where they are thoroughly washed by a machine. Following this, the juice is extracted
from the oranges by a squeezing machine, and the solid waste, including orange peels
and seeds, is collected and used to feed animals. The squeezed juice can then either be
packaged and sent to the supermarket, or transferred to another factory to undergo an
evaporation process.

During the evaporation process, the fresh orange juice is processed by an evaporator
machine where the water is removed. The concentrated juice is then canned and
transported to a warehouse before being combined with water again. After that, it is
packaged and distributed to supermarkets, ready to be purchased.

The bar shows the percentage of people going to cinemas in one European country
on different days.

BÀI MẪU

The chart illustrates the proportion of people visiting a cinema during seven days of the
week in a European nation from 2003 to 2007.

It is clear that there were only small fluctuations in people’s preference of which day to
go to the cinema over the examined period. People in this country tended to go to the
cinema on the weekend rather than on Monday to Friday.

In 2003, 40% of people went to cinemas on a Saturday, compared to 30% on Friday or


Sunday each. On the other days, the proportion of movie-goers was higher on Tuesday,
at 20%, while the lowest figure can be seen on Monday, at only 10%.

Over the next four years, the percentage of people going to the cinema on weekends
increased slightly to 45% 35% for Saturday and Sunday respectively. Similarly, Thursday
and Monday became more popular among cinema-goers, with about 2% more people
choosing these days. However, fewer people went to see movies on Tuesday and
Wednesday, with the figures falling to 19% and 9% respectively. Finally, the proportion
of movie-goers choosing to go to the cinema on a Friday remained at 30% during the
three examined years.

The table below shows the percentages of the population by age groups in one town
who rode bicycles in 2011.

BÀI MẪU

The table compares the proportions of people who rode a bike, by age and gender, in
2011.

In general, children under nine years old used bicycles the most, while middle-aged
people were the least likely to ride a bicycle. Also, men tended to cycle more than
women during the period shown.

Among males, children under 9 years old made up the largest proportion of cyclists, at
52%. However, with the older groups, the rates were only 42% for teenagers aged from
10 to 17, and 17% for people aged between 18 and 39. The proportion of 40 to 50 year
old male cyclists was the lowest, at just 12%, while only nearly a fifth of men aged over
enjoyed this activity.

The percentage of girls younger than 9 years old who cycled was slightly higher than
boys of the same age, at 52%. However, the figure for girls aged 10 to 17 was just under
a quarter, much lower than that of their counterparts. Similar to men in the same age
groups, cycling was not very popular amongst women aged 40 to 59, and 60 or over,
accounting for only 8% and 14% of females respectively.

Tham gia hội tự học IELTS uy tín nhất: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ielts.share/


BÀI MẪU

The table illustrates how much money an average family in a UK city earned and paid for
food and clothes, while the pie charts represent the proportion of spending on those
categories in 2010 and 2013.

It is clear that while the total income of an average British family decreased between
2010 and 2013, the amount of money spent on food and clothing increased.
Additionally, British people spent much more money on food than on clothes in both
years.

According to the table, in 2010, an average British family earned £29,000, while nearly
half of that amount was used for food and clothes. In 2013, the average income of a
family in Britain fell to about £25,000, while there was a growth of £1,000 in the
expenditure for food and clothes.

Regarding the pie charts, the percentage for spending on meat and fish was highest
among all categories in 2010, at 29%, but three years later experienced a drop to 23%.
Similarly, a downward trend was seen in the figure for clothes, from 15% to 13% in 2013.
On the other hand, people seemed to spend more money on fruit, vegetables, and dairy
products as the figures went up to 30% and 16% respectively. Meanwhile, the
proportion of spending on other food remained unchanged at exactly 18%.

How are you happy with current opening hours?

BÀI MẪU

The pie charts compare the opinions of full-time and part-time students about their
university services, including IT support and opening hours.

Overall, it is clear that there was more positive feedback with regard to the opening
hours than the IT support. Also, full-time students tended to be more satisfied with the
two services than their part-time counterparts.

Regarding IT support, over half of the surveyed full-time students said that they were
very happy with this service, while only a fifth of part-time students reported that they
were very happy. In contrast, just 15% of the students studying full-time were not
satisfied with IT support, in comparison with 45% of part-time students. The proportion
of both types of students being quite happy with this service was relatively the same, at
about one third.

The majority of full-time and part-time students felt very happy with the current
opening hours, at 87% and 72% respectively. Only 1% of the examined full-time
students were not satisfied with the opening hours whereas the figure for part-time
students was a little higher, at 5%. The remaining 12% of the surveyed full- time
students felt quite happy with this service, as opposed to nearly a quarter of part-time
students.

other workers in seven countries in 2004.

BÀI MẪU

The bar chart compares seven countries regarding the yearly payment for doctors and
other jobs in the year 2004.

It is clear that doctors generally made more money than other types of work in each
country during the research period. Also, the average incomes of American doctors and
other workers were the highest among the seven nations.

The US doctors earned the largest amount of money compared to those in the other six
countries, receiving nearly $120,000, while the figures for Switzerland and France were
significantly lower, at close to 70,000 each. In contrast, there was only about $50,000
earned by doctors in Finland, as opposed to doctors in the other countries, who received
around $61,000 each.

Regarding the average salaries of other workers, the amount of money earned by other
workers in the US, at approximately $45,000 and in Switzerland, at exactly $40,000 was
higher than in any of the other nations. Roughly $30,000 was given to French other
workers, about $5,000 higher than that of Finnish counterparts. By contrast, the figures
for the remaining countries were lowest, at exactly $20,000 each.

BÀI MẪU

The table illustrates how much money was given to developing countries by the USA,
European countries, and other countries, between 2006 and 2010.

Overall, it can be seen that the USA was the biggest contributor to developing nations
in all measured years. In addition, European countries and other countries gave similar
amounts of money to developing nations each year.

In 2006, the USA gave over three times as much money to developing nations as
European countries did, with a donation of $9.8 million. European and other countries
donated $3.1 million and $2.8 million respectively. All countries increased their
donations to developing nations over the following two years, reaching a total of $24.4
million.

In 2009 however, the donations from all countries slightly decreased from the 2008
figures, with a total figure of $23.5 million. However, these figures saw an increase again
in 2010, with a total contribution of $28.1 million. Of this, the USA donated $20.3
million, while European and other countries gave $4.1 and $3.7 million respectively.

different years who said they were interested in certain sports.

BÀI MẪU

The bar chart shows the percentage of UK residents interested in six different sports, in
three years (1995, 2000 and 2005).

It is clear that walking was by far the most popular physical activity in all surveyed years,
while golf was the least popular activity. Additionally, the percentages of people who
enjoyed walking, swimming and rugby increased, whereas the figures for those who
enjoyed other sports decreased over the measured years.

In 1995, walking was the most popular activity, chosen by 40% of the survey
participants, while playing snooker and tennis accounted for around 30%. In contrast,
about 23% of people chose swimming, while only 18% said they were interested in golf.
Meanwhile, approximately 25% of survey respondents chose rugby as their preferred
sport.

In 2005, slightly more people preferred walking, with the figure rising to just under 45%,
but there was a significant decline in the figures for tennis and snooker, to about 22%
each. The figures for golf remained the same, at around 15%, as opposed to the figures
for swimming and rugby, which experienced considerable gains in popularity to over
25% each.

25 euros in September, which made Alpha the most expensive contractor examined.
Meanwhile, Domo’s users had to pay the highest price for the majority of 2002 as the
price rose gradually from January to July, followed by a slight decrease to about 23
euros by September. Similarly, there was gradual growth in the price of Lex’s contract,
from approximately 12 euros in January to 17 euros in September.

BÀI MẪU

The bar chart and table compare five countries in terms of the percentage of families
with high-speed internet access, and the change over two consecutive years, from 2001
to 2002.

It is clear that the percentage of families with high-speed internet connection was
highest in South Korea and the USA during those years. In addition, the biggest change
in the number of families with high-speed internet access occurred in Britain.

In 2001, about 11.2% of South Korean households had access to high-speed internet,
compared to 9.3% of US families. One year later, the number of US families with high-
speed internet soared by 170% to reach 25.11% of the population, which was the
highest figure of all measured countries for those years. By contrast, the growth rate
was significantly lower in South Korea, at only 20%.

High-speed internet was not as common in Germany, Switzerland and Britain, with only
roughly 0.35% of households having a high-speed connection. All three countries saw
significant increases over the year, with Germany and Switzerland witnessing increases
of 80% and 120% respectively. Meanwhile, Britain saw the biggest growth rate in high-

The line graph illustrates the percentage of the Japanese population in different age
groups from 1960 until now, and projections for the year 2040.

Overall, the percentage of people aged 0-14 and 15-64 follows downward trends over
the period shown. The opposite trend, however, can be seen in the percentage of those
aged 65 and over.

Starting at about 65% in 1960, the proportion of people between 15 and 64 years old
hovered during the next 40 years before falling to around 60% in 2018. This figure is
predicted to experience a fall to about 52% by 2030, and finally will constitute around
55% of the total population of Japan in 2040. The figures for those aged 0-14 follow a
somewhat similar pattern, which began at 30% in 1960 and is estimated to drop to
about 10% by 2040.

In contrast, the percentage of Japanese people aged 65 and above was only 5% in 1960.
However, the figures witnessed a significant increase to just under 30% in 2018, and by

The maps illustrate a number of proposed changes that are to take place in the town of
Hunderstone.
In general, while the area to the east of the railway will remain almost the same, the
western side is going to undergo several significant changes, especially with regards to
the transport infrastructure.

As can be seen in the first map, Hunderstone Town is currently divided into two main
areas by a railway line, which runs from north to south and passes by a gas station. To
the west of the railway, there is an air field which is connected to the main road (A1). A
roundabout in the middle of this road connects the A1 road to the east of the town, and
in particular, to the ring road around the town centre.

In the future, the airfield in the north west of Hunderstone Town is expected to be
replaced by an industrial estate. A new railway line will also be constructed to provide
further access to this area. In addition, a new, larger roundabout will be constructed
midway along the road connecting the east and west of the town. A new road (A4) which
will connect the A1 to the town centre will also be built in the south of the town.

The table illustrates the percentages of males and females at different physical fitness
levels in a particular nation between 1999 and 2009.

Obviously, most women and men were at normal weight during the research period.
While the percentage of overweight women increased, the reverse was true for men.

In 1999, 49% of women had a normal weight, while the figure for those who were
underweight stood at about half of that percent. A similar pattern was seen in males but
the figures were smaller, at 41% and 22% respectively. Overweight females made up

The percentages of underweight women and men both rose in 2004, to 51% and 48%
respectively, before falling to 47% each in 2009. Similarly, overweight females and
males accounted for smaller percentages of the population in 2004, at 21% and 23%,
and both figures then went down to 19% each in 2009. Despite a rise of 2% in the first

The table below shows daily oil production in 4 countries from 2000 to 2004.

(barrels per day)

BÀI MẪU

The diagram illustrates the daily production of oil in four countries during the period
between 2000 and 2004.

Overall, Congo was the leading producer of oil per day during the five-year period, while
Chad produced the least amount of oil per day over the same period. Meanwhile, the
amount of oil generated per day each year in Congo decreased over time, while the
opposite was true for that of other countries.

Starting with 205,000 barrels per day in 2000, Nigeria’s daily oil production slightly
fluctuated around 200,000 to end up at 213,000 barrels per day in 2004. In contrast,
Congo’s oil production figures were the highest in the first year of the period at 275,000
barrels per day, however, gradually decreased over the years to reach 203,000 barrels
per day in 2004.

It can also be seen that Somalia produced 5,000 barrels of oil each day in 2000, but later

different cities.

BÀI MẪU

The table gives information about the actual number of inhabitants in three different
cities, in 1990 and 2000, as well as the estimated population for 2000.

Overall, while the population of Sao Paulo and Jakarta increased between 1990 and

million, which was about 2.5 million fewer than forecasted.

There were 13.5 million people living in Shanghai in 1990 and the population was
expected to experience significant growth over the next decade. However, in reality, it
dropped to 12.5 million, instead of the forecasted increase to 17 million.

BÀI MẪU

The graph compares two cities in England namely Derby and Nottingham in terms of the
number of houses built each year, from 2000 to 2009.

Overall, both sets of figures for Derby and Nottingham witnessed an upward trend over
the ten-year period. However, while the number of houses built each year in Derby

fluctuations.

In 2000, the number of newly built homes in Derby was just under 50, and steadily
increased over the next three years to reach around 125 houses in 2003. The figures
then remained the same for the next four years before dramatically increasing in 2008
and 2009, to reach a figure of approximately 350 homes by the end of the period.

However, the figures for Nottingham followed a rather different pattern. Between
2000 and 2005 the figures for newly built homes fluctuated around 50, before dropping
to almost 0 in 2006. A large increase of almost 200 newly built houses was seen in 2007,
but the figure then once again dropped to around 10 houses in 2008. 2009 witnessed

1982 and 2006.

BÀI MẪU

The graph illustrates how much oil was produced and consumed every day in China, over
a 24-year period starting from 1982.

Overall, China witnessed an increase in both the production and consumption of oil over
the period shown. However, oil consumption rose significantly faster than that of its
production.

At the beginning of the period, the figures for oil production and consumption were
both around 2 million barrels per day. However, while the rate of oil consumption rose
only slightly over the next eight years, to approximately 2 million barrels per day, oil
production increased significantly per day to 3 million barrels per day in 1986, then
remained constant until 1990.

From 1990 onwards, the amount of oil that was consumed per day saw steady growth
to end up at just over 6 million barrels. Meanwhile, the rate of oil production continued
to increase from 1990, but only marginally, ending up at approximately 3.5 million
barrels per day in 2006, which was significantly less than the countries consumption
rate.

The process of recycling.

BÀI MẪU

The given diagram indicates information about how used glass bottles are recycled.
In general, it can be seen that there are three stages in this process, commencing with
the collection of used bottles, and culminating with newly recycled bottles used for
storing drinks to be sold in supermarkets.

At the first stage of the process, glass bottles are used by customers and gathered at a
collection point before being delivered to a cleaning plant by a truck. The second stage
begins when the bottles are washed with high-pressure water, and subsequently sorted
based on their colour (green, brown and clear). After that, the bottles are broken down
into pieces in a glass factory and melted in a furnace to form a liquid. The recycled liquid
glass is then mixed with new liquid glass and poured into a mould to form new glass
bottles.

During the final stage of the process, the recycled bottles are filled and packaged, and
then transported to supermarkets to be sold.

BÀI MẪU

The line graph compares and predicts the proportion of the population, in three
different age groups, in a particular country, from 1960 to 2040.

Overall, people aged 15-64 accounted for the greatest percentage of the population for
all recorded and predicted years. It is also clear that while the proportion of people aged
65 and over increased during the period, the percentage of those aged less than 65
decreased, with both trends expected to continue into the future.

In 1960, just over half of the population was aged 15-64. The figure then slightly
fluctuated over the next 50 years, peaking at about 60% in 1970 and 1990. It is
forecasted to gradually decline to around 45% by 2040. Meanwhile, the percentage of

is also predicted to continue decreasing to reach around 10% by 2040.

From the graph it can also be seen that the percentage of elderly people in this country
experienced remarkable growth during the period. In 1960, only 15% of the population
was aged 65 or older. The figure began to rise in 1970 to be at 20% in 2000. This figure
