INTRODUCTION

The line graph shows the percentage of people in Australia who were
born in different parts of the world.
ð The line graph delineates demographic figures of Australian people who
were born in separated parts of the world.

OVERVIEW

Overall, it is clear that the percentage of people born in Asia and other
areas tended to increase, while that of the UK showed a downward
trend. In addition, the total population declined in the first 25 years;
however, this figure rose back until the end of the given period.
ð The initial impression from the graph is that the figures for people born
in Asia and other areas generally enjoyed upswings, with the former
seeing the fastest growth, whilst that of the UK experienced a decline.
It is also clear that the total population saw a steady drop in the first 25
years, but later rose sharply/ recovered/ underwent a recovery during
the final 10 years of the given period.
BODY 01

In 1976, there was around 14% of the Australian people born in the UK
as opposed to 12% in other areas and 3% in Asia. After 25 years later,
the percentage of Australians who came from the UK tended to decline
to about 6%. In contrast, the figure for other areas and Asia rose steadily
to 11% and 9% respectively. The total population of Australia increased
rapidly after experiencing a gradual fall to the bottom from the beginning
until 2001

ð In 1976, around 14% of the Australian people were born in the UK. This
was followed by other regions (roughly 12%), and Asia (3%). Over the
next 25 years, while fewer Australians came from the UK, with its figure
dropping to approximately 6%, the figures for other areas and Asia rose
steadily to 11% and 9% respectively. The total population of Australia, in
the meantime, experienced a gradual decline from 22.5% in 1976 to its
all-time low of 21% in 2001.
 BODY 02

Over the last 10 years, the percentage of Australians who were born in
the UK decreased to 5%, while the figures for people born in Asian and
other regions rose significantly to 12% and 15% respectively. The total
population increased back to 25% in the final year.

ð Over the last 10 years, the proportion of Australian people born in the UK
fell to 5%, whereas opposite patterns are evident in the figures for
Australian people of Asian and other regions descent, with the former
rising to 12% and the latter to its high of 15%. The
total demographics at this particular time frame saw a steep growth to
its peak of 25%.

NOTE
The proportion of people [coming from the UK] increased from 15% to
20%.
There were more people from the UK came to reside in Australia, with
its figure increasing from 15% to 20%.
BÀI 01

The graph below shows the percentage of people in different age

groups in one city who attended music concert between 2010 and 2015.

The graph illustrates the changes in the structure of the immigrants in

Australia in terms of their origins from 1976 to 2011.

Overall, immigrants were always the minority of Australian residents

throughout this period but with noticeable differences in the
composition. The initial gradual decline was due to the decreasing
percentage of British immigrants while the bounce-back afterwards is
driven by Asians and those from other regions.

Having declined gradually from some 23% to 20%over the first 25 years,
the proportion of the total immigrants bounced back to 25% in the
following decade. Only did the percentage of the immigrants from the
UK keep falling from approximately 14% to 5%, making it no longer the
highest since 1991 and the lowest after 1996.

By contrast, the figures for Asians and other areas rose in general. The
former, which was the lowest until 1996, surged from around 3% to 15%,
taking the leading place since 2008. The growth in the latter was
fluctuating: after a fall from about 12% to 8% in the first decade, it
rebounded to a peak (nearly 14%) in 2006, which was followed by a
marginal decrease to 13% in 2011.
