The

chart

shows

that

high

income

earners

consumed

considerably

more

fast

foods

than

the

other

income

groups,

spending

more

than

twice

as

much

on

hamburgers

(43

pence

per

person

per

week)

than

on

fish

and

chips

or

pizza

(both

under

20

pence).

Average

income

earners

also

favoured

hamburgers,

spending

33

pence per person per week, followed by fish and chips at 24 pence, then pizza at 11

pence.

Low

income

earners

appear

to

spend

less

than

other

income

groups

on

fast

foods,

though

fish

and

chips

remains

their

most

popular

fast

food,

followed

by

hamburgers and then pizza.

From the graph we can see that in 1970, fish and chips were twice as popular as

burgers,

pizza

being

at

that

time

the

least

popular

fast

food.

The

consumption

of

hamburgers

and

pizza

has

risen

steadily

over

the

20

year

period

to

1990

while

the

consumption of fish and chips has been in decline over that same period with a slight

increase in popularity since 1985.

Table

The table below shows the consumer durables (telephone, refrigerator, etc.) owned in

Britain from 1972 to 1983.

Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information shown below.

The

chart

shows

that

the

percentage

of

British

households

with

a

range

of

consumer durables steadily increased between 1972 and 1983. The greatest increase

was

in

telephone

ownership,

rising

from

42%

in

1972

to

77%

in

1983.

Next

came

central heating ownership, rising from 37% of households in 1972 to 64% in 1983.

The percentage of households with a refrigerator rose 21% over the same period and

of

those

with

a

washing

machine

by

14%.

Households

with

vacuum

-

cleaners,

televisions and dishwashers increased by 8%, 5% and 2%, respectively. In 1983, the

year of their introduction, 18% of households had a video recorder.

The significant social changes reflected in the statistics are that over the period the

proportion of British houses with central heating rose from one to two thirds, and of

those

with

a

phone

from

under

a

half

to

over

three

-

quarters.

Together

with

the

big

increases in the ownership of washing machines and refrigerators, they are evidence

of

both

rising

living

standards

and

the

trend

to

lifestyles

based

on

comfort

and

convenience. (173 words)

（

Bar chart

）

The

chart

below

shows

the

amount

of

leisure

time

enjoyed

by

men

and

women

of

different employment status.

Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information shown below.

The chart shows the number of hours of leisure enjoyed by men and women in a

typical week in 1998

-

9, according to gender and employment status.

Among

those

employed

full

-

time,

men

on

average

had

fifty

hours

to

leisure,

whereas women had approximately thirty

-

seven hours. There were no figures given

for male part

-

time workers, but female part

-

time had forty hours of leisure time, only

slightly more than women in full

-

time employment, perhaps reflecting their work in

the home.

In the unemployed and retired categories, leisure time showed an increase for both

sexes, as might have been expected. Here too, men enjoyed more leisure time—over

eighty hours, compared with seventy hours for women, perhaps once again reflecting

the fact that women spend more time working in the home than men.

Lastly, housewives enjoyed approximately fifty

-

four hours of leisure, on average.

There were no figures given for househusbands! Overall, the chart demonstrates that

in the categories for which statistics on male leisure time were available, men enjoyed

at least ten hours of extra leisure time. (173 words)
