    The document compares two methods for collecting water for irrigation. The first method uses a barrel and drum connected by a pipe to filter dirty water through layers of sand, charcoal and gravel, producing clean drinking water. Dirty water is poured into the barrel and flows through the filter into the drum, then clean water can be obtained from a tap in the drum. The second method is not described. Overall, the first method demonstrates how basic equipment can be used to filter and store water in a simple process.

    The diagrams below show two methods of collecting water for irrigation purposes.

    Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make
    comparisons where relevant.

    The diagram shows a method for filtering dirty water using a barrel and a drum, a
    pipe and two taps. Overall, the system shows how natural materials and basic equipment
    can be used to produce drinking water in just a few simple stages.

    First, the drum and barrel are placed next to each other so that the top of the barrel
    is higher than the drum. These items are linked by a pipe that runs from the bottom of the
    barrel into the side of the drum. Next, the filter is made by adding sand, charcoal and
    gravel to the barrel. Finally, a tap is fixed to the bottom of the drum and the top of the
    pipe.

    The process begins when dirty water is poured into the barrel. After that, the water
    goes through the filter and up the pipe into the drum, where it is stored. Then, when the
    tap in the drum is turned on, clean drinking water comes out.
