In other words， it does not mean that all of those who get high scores on eXaminations possess creativity in dealing with various problems.There are many stories that eXaminations failures turn out to be great scientists or successful entrepreneurs.Another effect is that eXaminations encourage bad study habits.Students tend to lay emphasis on the content which will be tested.They are encouraged to memorize rather than to think.Moreover， eXaminations induce cramming during the eXam week.However after the eXamination，most children forget nearly all the information and facts they stuff into their heads.EXaminations lower the standards of teaching as well.Theydeprive teachers of all freedom.Since teachers themselves are often judged by eXamination results，they have to train students in eXam techniques instead of teaching their subjects.Furthermore， students are required to learn only what teachers tell them.In conclusion， even though eXaminations have been used in the past， they should no longer be used as the only means of evaluation.They cannot assess a student’s performance in learning and they also have negative impacts on both students and teachers.(290 words)雅思背范文(篇三)The pie charts below show how dangerous waste products are dealt with in three countries.雅思小作文范文：The charts compare Korea， Sweden and the UK in terms of the methods used in each country to dispose of harmful waste.It is clear that in both the UK and Sweden， the majority of dangerous waste products are buried underground.By contrast，most hazardous materials in the Republic of Korea are recycled.Looking at the information in more detail， we can see that 82% of the UK’s dangerous waste is put into landfill sites.This disposal technique is used for 55% of the harmful waste inSweden and only 22% of similar waste in Korea.The latter country recycles 69% of hazardous materials， which is far more than the other two nations.While 25% of Swedens dangerous waste is recycled， the UK does not recycle at all.Instead， it dumps waste at sea or treats it chemically.These two methods are not employed in Korea or Sweden， which favour incineration for 9% and 20% of dangerous waste respectively.(15（9)雅思背范文(篇四)Dear Mr.Wang，I am much grateful to be employed by you two months ago as an editor for your magazine Design & Fashions.I appreciate the opportunity of having worked here with you and other colleagues.The eXperiences will be unforgettable throughout my life.However， as a young man whose primary interest is in computer science rather than fashion designing， I find my present job doesnt fall in with my previous training and strength.I therefore decide to quit this job for something else that may conform to my former preparation.Please accept my sincere apologies for any inconvenience my leaving may cause.Yours truly，Li Ming雅思背范文(篇五)释义:给…加插图( illustrate的第三人称单数 ); 说明; 表明;（用示例、图画等）说明;Throughout， she illustrates her analysis with eXcerpts from discussions.自始至终，她摘引讨论内容来阐明她的分析。

IELTS考试范文精选集(包含小作文)范文1Nowhere in the world has the issue of tobacco been so much debated as in our society. Nowadays, tobacco is more harmful than drug to people’s health, therefore many people think that smoking is legal that is a direct andprimary reason to induce this kind of problem. The above point is certainly true; this essay will outline three reasons.The main reason is that tobacco is a silent killer to smokers. Tobacco is known to be the probable cause of some 25 different diseases, and for some,such as lung cancer, bronchitis and emphysema, it is the main cause. According to a WHO report four million people die yearly from tobacco-related diseases, that is one death every eight seconds. Tobacco is significantly becoming a greater cause of death and disability than any other single cause.Another reason is that more and more young people are under 18 years old who smoke cigarette have been blinded by the deceit of tobacconists. Tobacco among adolescents remains stubbornly persistent. Smoking among adolescents rose in the 1990s in several developed countries，such as China,Vietnam and Thailand . While new markets are being opened by the tobacco industry actions, old markets have not been closed. Tobacco is a global threat.Last but not the least reason is the increase in cigarette smuggling. Becauseof tobacco smuggling, the legal retailing and distribution systems are badly affected, and faced with increased lawlessness and heavy tax losses. This behavior severely affectsthe economy.In conclusion, the tobacco should be considered illegal. Perhaps a pack of cigarettes is less harmful than another drug, but tobacco is actually the biggest killer of all the drugs.===================================== ============范文2Advertisements of tobacco and those of“smoking is harmful”are often seentogether. But there has been an on-going argument about whether or not tobacco should be forbidden and made illegal. I have always believed that smoking should be illegal for the following reasons.First, smoking does great harm to human health and causes many diseases. It is reported that more than 70% of lung cancer sufferers are smokers, andthe average life-span of smokers is seven years less than that of non-smokers. Moreover, it hurts not only smokers, but also the ones around the smokers. Many researchers claim that breathing“second-hand smoke”maybe even more harmful than smoking.Second, many social problems and disasters can be attributed to smoking. For instance, many wives cannot bear their husbands’smoking all the time,which causes many quarrels, or even divorces. Furthermore, the biggest firedisaster in China, the Daxinganling fire disaster, was caused by a burning cigarette end, and the cost of the resulting loss was st, smoking tobaccos is a main source of air pollution.A magazine said thatfor every cigarette smoked each day,a whole tree is needed to clean the air.In other words, smoking one less cigar every day equals planting a tree. It is a brilliant contribution to the earth we are living on.In a word, all the above demonstrate that smoking harmsyourselves as wellas your neighbors, pollutes the air we ourselves are breathing, and even agitates the social peace. So, in my opinion, tobacco should be strictly forbidden, and smoking should be made illegal.范文3there has long been controversy over the legality and apparent acceptance of tobacco in society .some hold that cigarettes and other tobacco containing products should be banned, that is, treated as narcotics.personally,i agree with this point of view for the following reasons:although cigarettes do not offer as intense an effect as drugs like heroin and cocaine,they rank higher in the level of dependence it creates in the user.thousands of smokers try to rid themselves of cigarettes but cannot,because of the physiological dependence they developed,chiefly imputable to its chemical nicotine.this explains why smokers continue their habit despite the numerous health warnings. furthermore,medical science has now proved beyond a doubt that smoking kills.with all the other causes of preventable deaths such as alcohol,illegal drugs,aids,suicide,road accidents,fire,and guns,cigarettes still account for more preventable deaths than all of those combined.more disturbingly,whilst the use of heroin is dangerous solely to the users,the use of tobacco endangers those who are in their vicinity as well. this phenomenon, known as passive smoking, nulls the counter-argument that putting one's own health at risk through smoking should be up to one's own individual choice.reports have shown that the amount of second-hand smoke inhaled by a typical nonsmoker is equivalent to one cigarette smoked per day,and what is more,passive smoking can increase a nonsmoker's chance of getting cancer by ten to thirtytwo per cent.there are those who will say that the black market created by outlawing tobacco will produce deadlier cigarettes because the product standards of the bootleggers are not as high.however,we should all bear in mind that legal cigarettes cause roughly four hundred thousand deaths a year.it is hard to imagine the limited distribution provided by the criminal underworld could compete with this tragic figure.to sum up, the harm visited upon our society by tobacco usage is substantial.there will be no solution other than to control tobacco much in the same way that the government now controls drugs which could allow people to remain attentive to the seriousness of the effects of these substances,and hopefully to prohibit their usage.范文4Apparently, it would seem that tobacco is totally different substance from drugs, and it can be used freedom by public. In fact, however, our authority should make tobacco illegal as well as drugs, and using of tobacco should be controlled strictly.Tobacco only can be used for research and medical purpose. As far as I am concerned, as a kind of dope, tobacco has been widely used to help patients alleviate their pain in surgery. At the same time, ordinary people should not be allowed to access it legally for two main reasons.Among countless factors which influence my inclination, there is a most conspicuous one: it is harmful that smokers addict to tobacco. Many decades ago, scientists have already found that there is a definite link between smoking and bronchial troubles, cardiac disease and lung cancer. More seriously, it not only has negative influence for smokers, but others living or working insame surrounding, even the next generation of a smoking pregnant women may be harmed by so-called“second hand smoking”. Research shows that sometimes“second hand smoking”is more dangerous than smoking directly, because, at least smokers can get the protection from filter tips to some extent. Thus, compared to the hazard of drugs, tobacco can involve more other innocent people and harm their health unknowingly.The second aspect relates to the problem that our natural resources and money are wasted senselessly during the course of planting, transporting and manufacturing tobacco. In light of a statistics, China consumes nearly 1,000 tons of wood fibers to produce cigarettes annually. Besides, the investment absorbed by tobacco manufacturers every year, is enough to solve all financial troubles that higher education have to face. Obviously, if tobacco is banned by our governments, it means that considerable money will be saved.In summary, judging from all the evidence offered, we may safely arrive at the conclusion that tobacco should be forbidden as well as drugs except for a few special purposes, such as research and medicine.补充With the development of society, our life and working pressure are greater and greater. In this way, a lot of people have become smokers. Tobacco, as a kind of drugs, prevails in the society. Some people hold the opinion that tobacco should be given freedom be use, but others, in contrast, deem it should be made illegal as the same way as other drugs and that is also my point.Medical science proves that smoking can cause the heartdiseases, lung cancer, and the immune system diseases. These diseases are all mankind's healthy enemies. The statistics have showed that people who die of the lung cancer, over 90% are smokers. In these smokers, 85% are chain smoker. So, obviously, there is enormous danger to the human health in smoking.In addition, smoking not only dangerous to smoker, but also do harm to people at smoker's side. The tobacco contains a large number of noxious substances, such as nicotine. Just as a famous physician says, smoking is equivalent to commit suicide chronically.However, the cigarette can really relax our nervous nerve, within short time. People, especially, who have heavy working pressure, are prone to produce sense of relying on to cigarette. Moreover, as everyone knows, a lot of countries impose the heavy taxation to tobacco manufacturer and seller, thus, if the tobacco business is considered as the illegal activities, the revenues of the country will be reduced correspondingly.In a word, the danger to people of cigarette is obvious. Though it can help us flee away from pressure, this to use health as cost. Our government should forbid the production of the tobacco, make our world fresh and nonpoisonous.With the development of society, our life and working pressure are [getting] greater and greater.In this way, a lot of people have become smokers. Tobacco, as a kind of drugs, prevails in the society. Some people hold the opinion that tobacco should be given freedom [to] be [used, but others, in contrast, deem [that] it should be made [as] illegal as the same way as other drugs and that is also my point.Medical science proves that smoking can cause the heart diseases, lung cancer, and the immune system diseases. [all ofthese diseases are enemies of mankind's healthy] . The statistics have showed that people who die of the lung cancer, over 90%, are smokers. [Among] these smokers, 85% are chain smokers. So, obviously, there is enormous danger to the human health in smoking.In addition, smoking not only dangerous to smokers, but also [does] harm to people at smoker's side. The tobacco contains a large number of noxious substances, such as nicotine. Just as a famous physician says, smoking is equivalent to commit suicide chronically.However, the cigarette can really relax our nervous nerve, within short time.

Moreover, as everyone knows, a lot of countries impose the heavy taxation to tobacco manufacturer and seller, thus, if the tobacco business is considered as the illegal activities, the revenues of the country will be reduced correspondingly.To sum up, the danger to people of cigarette is obvious. Though it can help us flee away from pressure, this to use health as cost. Our government should forbid the production of the tobacco, make our world fresh and nonpoisonous.Although it is a freedom to use tobacco{烟草} while some people think it should be made illegal as the same way as other drugs. To what extent do you agree or disagree？What’s your opinion?A:Tobacco should be made illegal, I agree with this idea personally. I hope most drugs can be made illegal, because, as far as I know, they are bad to our health. However, currently most countries still keep it free to use tobacco, and this situation seemsto be very hard to change in a short time.From my own experience, using tobacco is not a good thing, especially using is for a long time. It will lead to many kinds of diseases, more importantly, many of them are fatale. One of my friends died from using too much tobacco, and it is believed there are many more people like this. The other thing that I am concerned of is, if a country doesn’t make using tobacco illegal, many young people will have a chance to use it, i.e. students. It is very dangerous, because if someone gets addicted to this when he is very young, he will then almost surely have a big health problem when he is old.I am happy to see that, although it is free to use tobacco in many countries, most of those countries still somehow try not to encourage people using it. For example, tobacco advertisement is banned in many countries, and for many countries, smoking is banned in public places. Overall, most countries are trying to stop the use of tobacco, though it will take sometime. In my opinion, it is essential to limit the use of tobacco, and I hope everyone doesn’t use.。

Yet, by far the most significant change to take place during this period was the increased popularity of computer games.

雅思英文作文范文1. 教育话题题目：Some people believe that schools should primarily teach students how to become good citizens, while others believe that the main purpose of schools is to prepare students for the workforce. Discuss both views and give your opinion.In today's rapidly changing world, the role of schools is a subject of debate. Some argue that schools should focus on teaching students how to become responsible citizens, while others emphasize the importance of preparing students for the workforce.Proponents of the first view argue that schools play a crucial role in shaping responsible citizens. They believe that schools should instill values such as empathy, tolerance, and civic engagement. By prioritizing citizenship education, schools can contribute to the development of individuals who are not only skilled in their professions but also actively participate in their communities.On the other hand, advocates for the workforce preparation perspective argue that schools must equip students with the skills and knowledge needed for their future careers. In today's competitive job market, practical skills and qualifications are essential for success. Therefore, schools should prioritize subjects that are directly relevant to the workforce.In my opinion, a balanced approach is necessary. Schools should strive to achieve both goals. By providing a well-rounded education that includes citizenship education and workforce preparation, schools can produce well-rounded individuals who are not only skilled professionals but also responsible citizens.2. 社会问题题目：Some people believe that the government should be responsible for providing healthcare for all citizens, while others think that individuals should take responsibility for their healthcare. Discuss both views and give your opinion.The issue of healthcare provision is a topic of ongoing debate. Some argue that the government should be responsible for providing healthcare to all citizens, while others believe that individuals should take responsibility for their healthcare.Supporters of government-funded healthcare argue that it is a fundamental right for all citizens to have access to healthcare services. They contend that a public healthcare system ensures that everyone, regardless of their financial status, can receive medical treatment when needed. This, they argue, promotes equality and social well-being.On the other hand, proponents of individual responsibility for healthcare argue that personal health choices, such as diet and exercise,play a significant role in one's well-being. They believe that individuals should take proactive measures to maintain their health and seek private healthcare options when necessary. This approach, they argue, encourages personal accountability.In my view, a combination of both approaches is ideal. Government-funded healthcare can provide a safety net for those who cannot afford private healthcare, ensuring that basic medical services are accessible to all. However, individuals should also be encouraged to take responsibility for their health through healthy lifestyle choices and preventative measures.3. 环境问题题目：Environmental problems are too big for individual countries and individual persons to address. In today's world, we should focus more on international cooperation. To what extent do you agree or disagree?Environmental issues, such as climate change and pollution, have global implications that extend beyond the borders of individual countries. Some argue that addressing these problems requires a greater emphasis on international cooperation rather than relying solely on individual countries and individuals.I strongly agree with the view that international cooperation is essential to effectively tackle environmental problems. Climate change,for example, is a global issue that requires collective action from nations worldwide. The impact of greenhouse gas emissions, deforestation, and other environmental challenges transcends national boundaries, making it impossible for any single country to address them in isolation.International cooperation can lead to the development of comprehensive strategies and agreements aimed at mitigating environmental problems. The Paris Agreement, for instance, is a testament to the power of global collaboration in addressing climate change.Moreover, international cooperation fosters knowledge sharing and technological advancements. Countries can learn from each other's successes and failures in addressing environmental issues, leading to more effective solutions.In conclusion, the scale and complexity of environmental problems demand international cooperation. While individual countries and individuals have a role to play, it is only through collective global efforts that we can hope to mitigate the impact of these challenges and protect the planet for future generations.4. 科技与社会题目：Some people argue that advances in technology have made our lives more stressful, while others believe that technology has made our lives easier and more convenient. Discuss both views and give your opinion.The impact of technology on our lives is a subject of debate. Some argue that advances in technology have increased stress levels, while others believe that technology has made our lives easier and more convenient.Supporters of the view that technology has increased stress levels point to several factors. They argue that the constant connectivity provided by smartphones and the internet has blurred the boundaries between work and personal life, leading to increased stress. Additionally, the rapid pace of technological change can create anxiety as individuals struggle to keep up with the latest developments.On the other hand, proponents of technology's role in making our lives easier highlight its numerous benefits. They argue that technology has improved communication, access to information, and efficiency in various aspects of life. Tasks that were once time-consuming are now simplified through automation and digital tools.In my opinion, technology has the potential to both increase stress and enhance convenience, depending on how it is used. It is essential forindividuals to strike a balance between leveraging technology for its benefits while also managing its potential negative impacts on stress. Responsible and mindful use of technology can lead to a more convenient and less stressful life.5. 社会变革题目：Some people believe that social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter have a positive impact on society, while others argue that they have a negative influence. Discuss both views and give your opinion.The influence of social media platforms on society is a topic of ongoing debate. Some argue that these platforms have a positive impact, while others contend that they have a negative influence.Supporters of the positive impact of social media argue that these platforms facilitate communication and connectivity among individuals worldwide. They provide a space for people to share information, connect with friends and family, and raise awareness about important social issues. Social media has played a crucial role in organizing movements and campaigns for social change.However, critics argue that social media can have a negative influence on society. They point to issues such as cyberbullying, the spread of misinformation, and the negative impact on mental health. Theaddictive nature of social media and the potential for echo chambers where individuals are exposed only to like-minded opinions are also concerns.In my opinion, social media platforms have the potential for both positive and negative impacts, depending on how they are used. It is essential for individuals to use these platforms responsibly, critically evaluate the information they encounter, and be mindful of their online interactions. When used thoughtfully, social media can be a powerful tool for positive social change and connectivity.6. 社会问题题目：Some people believe that the government should regulate the fast-food industry to prevent health problems, while others think this is the responsibility of individuals. Discuss both views and give your opinion.The regulation of the fast-food industry is a topic of debate. Some argue that the government should intervene to prevent health problems, while others believe that individuals should take responsibility for their dietary choices.Proponents of government regulation contend that the fast-food industry has a significant role in contributing to health problems such as obesity and heart disease. They argue that stricter regulations, such aslimiting advertising to children or mandating clearer nutritional information, can help consumers make informed choices and ultimately lead to better public health outcomes.On the other hand, advocates for individual responsibility argue that adults should have the freedom to make their own dietary choices. They believe that educating individuals about nutrition and encouraging healthier eating habits should be the primary focus, rather than imposing government regulations.In my view, a balanced approach is necessary. While individuals should have the freedom to make their own choices, the fast-food industry does have a responsibility to provide clear and accurate information about the nutritional content of their products. Government regulations can help ensure transparency and protect consumers, especially in cases involving children's advertising.7. 环境问题题目：Some people believe that the best way to solve environmental problems is to increase the cost of fuel for cars and other vehicles. To what extent do you agree or disagree?Addressing environmental problems, particularly related to carbon emissions and air pollution, is a critical concern. Some argue that raisingthe cost of fuel for cars and other vehicles is an effective way to incentivize environmentally friendly behavior.I strongly agree with the view that increasing the cost of fuel can be an effective strategy to combat environmental problems. Higher fuel prices encourage individuals to use public transportation, carpool, or consider alternative transportation options such as electric or hybrid vehicles. This, in turn, reduces the carbon footprint and air pollution associated with traditional gasoline-powered vehicles.Furthermore, the additional revenue generated from higher fuel prices can be reinvested in the development of cleaner and more sustainable transportation infrastructure, such as improved public transit systems and bike lanes.In conclusion, increasing the cost of fuel for cars and other vehicles can serve as a powerful incentive for individuals to adopt more environmentally friendly transportation choices. This measure not only addresses environmental problems but also promotes sustainable and responsible behavior.8. 科技与社会题目：Some people argue that the widespread use of smartphones and social media has led to a decline in face-to-face social interactions. Do you agree or disagree?The impact of smartphones and social media on face-to-face social interactions is a matter of ongoing debate. Some argue that these technologies have led to a decline in such interactions, while others disagree.I agree with the view that the widespread use of smartphones and social media has, to some extent, led to a decline in face-to-face social interactions. Many people are now more engaged in their digital lives, constantly checking their phones for messages, updates, and social media notifications. This can reduce the quality and quantity of in-person interactions.Moreover, the convenience of virtual communication can lead to a preference for online interactions over face-to-face conversations. People may choose to communicate via text or social media rather than meeting in person, which can contribute to a decline in direct human contact.However, it's essential to recognize that technology's impact on social interactions is complex and multifaceted. While there are challenges associated with smartphone use, these devices also enable connections with people across long distances and can enhance social interactions in various ways. The key is to strike a balance between digital and in-person communication to maintain healthy social relationships.9. 教育话题题目：Some people believe that students should be given one long vacation each year, while others believe that students should have several short vacations throughout the year. Discuss both views and give your opinion.The structure of school vacations is a topic of discussion. Some argue that students should have one long vacation each year, while others believe that several short vacations throughout the year are more beneficial.Proponents of one long vacation argue that it provides students with an extended period for relaxation and the opportunity to engage in meaningful activities, such as travel or internships. They contend that a lengthy break allows students to recharge and return to school with renewed enthusiasm.On the other hand, advocates for several short vacations believe that shorter breaks distributed throughout the year help maintain continuity in learning. They argue that students are less likely to experience "summer learning loss" and can better retain knowledge when they have regular breaks for rest and rejuvenation.In my opinion, a combination of both approaches can be beneficial. Having one long vacation each year can provide students with an extended break for exploration and relaxation. However, incorporatingshorter breaks throughout the academic year can help students maintain focus and prevent burnout. The key is to strike a balance that ensures students have ample opportunities for both learning and leisure.10. 社会变革题目：Some people argue that advancements in automation and artificial intelligence will lead to widespread job loss and unemployment. Do you agree or disagree?The impact of automation and artificial intelligence on employment is a topic of concern and debate. Some argue that these advancements will result in widespread job loss and unemployment, while others disagree.I believe that while automation and AI will indeed reshape the job market, they may not necessarily lead to widespread job loss and unemployment. Automation has the potential to eliminate certain routine and repetitive tasks, but it also creates opportunities for new types of jobs and industries.For example, as automation takes over routine tasks, it frees up human workers to focus on more creative and complex aspects of their jobs. Additionally, the development and maintenance of automation systems and AI technologies require skilled workers, leading to the creation of jobs in those fields.Moreover, automation and AI have the potential to improve productivity and efficiency in various industries, which can lead to economic growth and the creation of new businesses and jobs.In conclusion, while advancements in automation and artificial intelligence will undoubtedly impact the job market, the overall effect may not necessarily be widespread job loss and unemployment. Adaptation, reskilling, and a focus on emerging industries are essential for individuals and economies to thrive in the changing landscape of work.。

The line graph compares average yearly spending by Americans on mobile and landline phone services from 2001 to 2010.It is clear that spending on landline phones fell steadily over the 10-year period, while mobile phone expenditure rose quickly. The year 2006 marks the point at which expenditure on mobile services overtook that for residential phone services.In 2001, US consumers spent an average of nearly $700 on residential phone services, compared to only around $200 on cell phone services. Over the following five years, average yearly spending on landlines dropped by nearly $200. By contrast, expenditure on mobiles rose by approximately $300.In the year 2006, the average American paid out the same amount of money on both types of phone service, spending just over $500 on each. By 2010, expenditure on mobile phones had reached around $750, while the figure for spending on residential services had fallen to just over half this amount.The diagram illustrates the various stages in the life of a honey bee. We can see that the complete life cycle lasts between 34 and 36 days. It is also noticeable that there are five main stages in the development of the honey bee, from egg to mature adult insect.The life cycle of the honey bee begins when the female adult lays an egg; the female typically lays one or two eggs every 3 days. Between 9 and 10 days later, each egg hatches and the immature insect, or nymph, appears.During the third stage of the life cycle, the nymph grows in size and sheds its skin three times. This moulting first takes place 5 days after the egg hatches, then 7 days later, and again another 9 days later. After a total of 30 to 31 days from the start of the cycle, the young adult honey bee emerges from its final moulting stage, and in the space of only 4 days it reaches full maturity.(169 words, band 9)The chart compares average figures for temperature and precipitation over the course of a calendar year in Kolkata.It is noticeable that monthly figures for precipitation in Kolkata vary considerably, whereas monthly temperatures remain relatively stable. Rainfall is highest from July to August, while temperatures are highest in April and May.Between the months of January and May, average temperatures in Kolkata rise from their lowest point at around 20°C to a peak of just over 30°C. Average rainfall in the city also rises over the same period, from approximately 20mm of rain in January to 100mm in May.While temperatures stay roughly the same for the next four months, the amount of rainfall more than doubles between May and June. Figures for precipitation remain above 250mm from June to September, peaking at around 330mm in July. The final three months of the year see a dramatic fall in precipitation, to a low of about 10mm in December, and a steady drop in temperatures back to the January average. (173 words, band 9)Posted by Simon in IELTSThe bar charts compare students of different ages in terms of why they are studying and whether they are supported by an employer.It is clear that the proportion of students who study for career purposes is far higher among the younger age groups, while the oldest students are more likely to study for interest. Employer support is more commonly given to younger students.Around 80% of students aged under 26 study to further their careers, whereas only 10% study purely out of interest. The gap between these two proportions narrows as students get older, and the figures for those in their forties are the same, at about 40%. Students aged over 49 overwhelmingly study for interest (70%) rather than for professional reasons (less than 20%).Just over 60% of students aged under 26 are supported by their employers. By contrast, the 30-39 age group is the most self-sufficient, with only 30% being given time off and help with fees. The figures rise slightly for students in their forties and for those aged 50 or more.(178 words, band 9)The bar chart compares the number of incidents and injuries for every 100 million passenger miles travelled on five different types of public transport in 2002.It is clear that the most incidents and injuries took place on demand-response vehicles. By contrast, commuter rail services recorded by far the lowest figures.A total of 225 incidents and 173 injuries, per 100 million passenger miles travelled, took place on demand-response transport services. These figures were nearly three times as high as those for the second highest category, bus services. There were 76 incidents and 66 people were injured on buses.Rail services experienced fewer problems. The number of incidents on light rail trains equalled the figure recorded for buses, but there were significantly fewer injuries, at only 39. Heavy rail services saw lower numbers of such events than light rail services, but commuter rail passengers were even less likely to experience problems. In fact, only 20 incidents and 17 injuries occurred on commuter trains.(165 words, band 9)The line graph compares the percentage of people aged 65 or more in three countries over a period of 100 years.It is clear that the proportion of elderly people increases in each country between 1940 and 2040. Japan is expected to see the most dramatic changes in its elderly population.In 1940, around 9% of Americans were aged 65 or over, compared to about 7% of Swedish people and 5% of Japanese people. The proportions of elderly people in the USA and Sweden rose gradually over the next 50 years, reaching just under 15% in 1990. By contrast, the figures for Japan remained below 5% until the early 2000s. Looking into the future, a sudden increase in the percentage of elderly people is predicted for Japan, with a jump of over 15% in just 10 years from 2030 to 2040. By 2040, it is thought that around 27% of the Japanese population will be 65 years oldor more, while the figures for Sweden and the USA will be slightly lower, at about 25% and 23% respectively.(178 words, band 9)The table shows percentages of consumer expenditure for three categories of products and services in five countries in 2002.It is clear that the largest proportion of consumer spending in each country went on food, drinks and tobacco. On the other hand, the leisure/education category has the lowest percentages in the table.Out of the five countries, consumer spending on food, drinks and tobacco was noticeably higher in Turkey, at 32.14%, and Ireland, at nearly 29%. The proportion of spending on leisure and education was also highest in Turkey, at 4.35%, while expenditure on clothing and footwear was significantly higher in Italy, at 9%, than in any of the other countries.It can be seen that Sweden had the lowest percentages of national consumer expenditure for food/drinks/tobacco and for clothing/footwear, at nearly 16% and just over 5% respectively. Spain had slightly higher figures for these categories, but the lowest figure for leisure/education, at only 1.98%.The charts compare the amount of water used for agriculture, industry and homes around the world, and water use in Brazil and the Democratic Republic of Congo.It is clear that global water needs rose significantly between 1900 and 2000, and that agriculture accounted for the largest proportion of water used. We can also see that water consumption was considerably higher in Brazil than in the Congo.In 1900, around 500km³ of water was used by the agriculture sector worldwide. The figures for industrial and domestic water consumption stood at around one fifth of that amount. By 2000, global water use for agriculture had increased to around 3000km³, industrial water use had risen to just under half that amount, and domestic consumption had reached approximately 500km³.In the year 2000, the populations of Brazil and the Congo were 176 million and 5.2 million respectively. Water consumption per person in Brazil, at 359m³, was much higher than that in the Congo, at only 8m³, and this could be explained by the fact that Brazil had 265 times more irrigated land.(184 words, band 9)The bar chart compares the cost of an average house in five major cities over a period of 13 years from 1989.We can see that house prices fell overall between 1990 and 1995, but most of the cities saw rising prices between 1996 and 2002. London experienced by far the greatest changes in house prices over the 13-year period.Over the 5 years after 1989, the cost of average homes in Tokyo and London dropped by around 7%, while New York house prices went down by 5%. By contrast, prices rose by approximately 2% in both Madrid and Frankfurt.Between 1996 and 2002, London house prices jumped to around 12% above the 1989 average. Homebuyers in New York also had to pay significantly more, with prices rising to 5% above the 1989 average, but homes in Tokyo remained cheaper than they were in 1989. The cost of an average home in Madrid rose by a further 2%, while prices in Frankfurt remained stable.(165 words)The table gives information about poverty rates among six types of household in Australia in the year 1999.It is noticeable that levels of poverty were higher for single people than for couples, and people with children were more likely to be poor than those without. Poverty rates were considerably lower among elderly people.Overall, 11% of Australians, or 1,837,000 people, were living in poverty in 1999. Aged people were the least likely to be poor, with poverty levels of 6% and 4% for single aged people and aged couples respectively.Just over one fifth of single parents were living in poverty, whereas only 12% of parents living with a partner were classed as poor. The same pattern can be seen for people with no children: while 19% of single people in this group were living below the poverty line, the figure for couples was much lower, at only 7%.(150 words, band 9)The map shows two potential locations (S1 and S2) for a new supermarket in a town called Garlsdon.The main difference between the two sites is that S1 is outside the town, whereas S2 is in the town centre. The sites can also be compared in terms of access by road or rail, and their positions relative to three smaller towns.Looking at the information in more detail, S1 is in the countryside to the north west of Garlsdon, but it is close to the residential area of the town. S2 is also close to the housing area, which surrounds the town centre.There are main roads from Hindon, Bransdon and Cransdon to Garlsdon town centre, but this is a no traffic zone, so there would be no access to S2 by car. By contrast, S1 lies on the main road to Hindon, but it would be more difficult to reach from Bransdon and Cransdon. Both supermarket sites are close to the railway that runs through Garlsdon from Hindon to Cransdon.The bar chart compares consumer spending on six different items in Germany, Italy, France and Britain.It is clear that British people spent significantly more money than people in the other three countries on all six goods. Of the six items, consumers spent the most money on photographic film.People in Britain spent just over £170,000 on photographic film, which is the highest figure shown on the chart. By contrast, Germans were the lowest overall spenders, with roughly the same figures (just under £150,000) for each of the six products. The figures for spending on toys were the same in both France and Italy, at nearly £160,000. However, while French people spent more than Italians on photographic film and CDs, Italians paid out more for personal stereos, tennis racquets and perfumes. The amount spent by French people on tennis racquets, around £145,000, is the lowest figure shown on the chart.The diagrams show how house designs differ according to climate.The most noticeable difference between houses designed for cool and warm climates is in the shape of the roof. The designs also differ with regard to the windows and the use of insulation.We can see that the cool climate house has a high-angled roof, which allows sunlight to enter through the window. By contrast, the roof of the warm climate house has a peak in the middle and roof overhangs to shade the windows. Insulation and thermal building materials are used in cool climates to reduce heat loss, whereas insulation and reflective materials are used to keep the heat out in warm climates.Finally, the cool climate house has one window which faces the direction of the sun, while the warm climate house has windows on two sides which are shaded from the sun. By opening the two windows at night, the house designed for warm climates can be ventilated.(162 words, band 9)The picture illustrates the way in which water passes from ocean to air to land during the natural process known as the water cycle.Three main stages are shown on the diagram. Ocean water evaporates, falls as rain, and eventually runs back into the oceans again.Beginning at the evaporation stage, we can see that 80% of water vapour in the air comes from the oceans. Heat from the sun causes water to evaporate, and water vapour condenses to form clouds. At the second stage, labelled ‘precipitation’ on the diagram, water falls as rain or snow.At the third stage in the cycle, rainwater may take various paths. Some of it may fall in to lakes or return to the oceans via ‘surface runoff’. Otherwise, rainwater may filter through the ground, reaching the impervious layer of the earth. Salt water intrusion is shown to take place just before groundwater passes into the oceans to complete the cycle.(156 words, band 9)The first picture shows the layout of an art gallery, and the second shows some proposed changes to the gallery space.It is clear that significant changes will be made in terms of the use of floor space in the gallery. There will be a completely new entrance and more space for exhibitions. At present, visitors enter the gallery through doors which lead into a lobby. However, the plan is to move the entrance to the Parkinson Court side of the building, and visitors will walk straight into the exhibition area. In place of the lobby and office areas, which are shown on the existing plan, the new gallery plan shows an education area and a small storage area.The permanent exhibition space in the redeveloped gallery will be about twice as large as it is now because it will occupy the area that is now used for temporary exhibitions. There will also be a new room for special exhibitions. This room is shown in red on the existing plan and is not currently part of the gallery.(178 words, band 9)The table shows data about the underground rail networks in six major cities.The table compares the six networks in terms of their age, size and the number of people who use them each year. It is clear that the three oldest underground systems are larger and serve significantly more passengers than the newer systems. The London underground is the oldest system, having opened in 1863. It is also the largest system, with 394 kilometres of route. The second largest system, in Paris, is only about half the size of the London underground, with 199 kilometres of route. However, it serves more people per year. While only third in terms of size, the Tokyo system is easily the most used, with 1927 million passengers per year.Of the three newer networks, the Washington DC underground is the most extensive, with 126 kilometres of route, compared to only 11 kilometres and 28 kilometres for the Kyoto and Los Angeles systems. The Los Angeles network is the newest, having opened in 2001, while the Kyoto network is the smallest and serves only 45 million passengers per year.(185 words)Cambridge IELTS book 7, page 101:The pie charts compare the amount of electricity produced using five different sources of fuel in two countries over two separate years.Total electricity production increased dramatically from 1980 to 2000 in both Australia and France. While the totals for both countries were similar, there were big differences in the fuel sources used.Coal was used to produce 50 of the total 100 units of electricity in Australia in 1980, rising to 130 out of 170 units in 2000. By contrast, nuclear power became the most important fuel source in France in 2000, producing almost 75% of the country’s electricity.Australia depended on hydro power for just under 25% of its electricity in both years, but the amount of electricity produced using this type of power fell from 5 to only 2 units in France. Oil, on the other hand, remained a relatively important fuel source in France, but its use declined in Australia. Both countries relied on natural gas for electricity production significantly more in 1980 than in 2000.(170 words)The chart gives information about UK immigration, emigration and net migration between 1999 and 2008.Both immigration and emigration rates rose over the period shown, but the figures for immigration were significantly higher. Net migration peaked in 2004 and 2007.In 1999, over 450,000 people came to live in the UK, while the number of people who emigrated stood at just under 300,000. The figure for net migration was around 160,000, and it remained at a similar level until 2003. From 1999 to 2004, the immigration rate rose by nearly 150,000 people, but there was a much smaller rise in emigration. Net migration peaked at almost 250,000 people in 2004.After 2004, the rate of immigration remained high, but the number of people emigrating fluctuated. Emigration fell suddenly in 2007, before peaking at about 420,000 people in 2008. As a result, the net migration figure rose to around 240,000 in 2007, but fell back to around 160,000 in 2008.It is clear from the charts that the figures for developed countries are much higher than those for developing nations. Also, the charts show an overall increase in participation in education and science from 1980 to 1990.People in developing nations attended school for an average of around 3 years, with only a slight increase in years of schooling from 1980 to 1990. On the other hand, the figure for industrialised countries rose from nearly 9 years of schooling in 1980 to nearly 11 years in 1990.From 1980 to 1990, the number of scientists and technicians in industrialised countries almost doubled to about 70 per 1000 people. Spending on research and development also saw rapid growth in these countries, reaching $350 billion in 1990. By contrast, the number of science workers in developing countries remained below 20 per 1000 people, and research spending fell from about $50 billion to only $25 billion.(187 words)The diagram below shows how the Australian Bureau of Meteorology collectsup-to-the-minute information on the weather in order to produce reliable forecasts.The figure illustrates the process used by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology to forecast the weather.There are four stages in the process, beginning with the collection of information about the weather. This information is then analysed, prepared for presentation, and finally broadcast to the public.Looking at the first and second stages of the process, there are three ways of collecting weather data and three ways of analysing it. Firstly, incoming information can be received by satellite and presented for analysis as a satellite photo. The same data can also be passed to a radar station and presented on a radar screen or synoptic chart. Secondly, incoming information may be collected directly by radar and analysed on a radar screen or synoptic chart. Finally, drifting buoys also receive data which can be shown on a synoptic chart.At the third stage of the process, the weather broadcast is prepared on computers. Finally, it is delivered to the public on television, on the radio, or as a recorded telephoneannouncement.The line graph compares the percentage of people in three countries who used the Internet between 1999 and 2009.It is clear that the proportion of the population who used the Internet increased in each country over the period shown. Overall, a much larger percentage of Canadians and Americans had access to the Internet in comparison with Mexicans, and Canada experienced the fastest growth in Internet usage.In 1999, the proportion of people using the Internet in the USA was about 20%. The figures for Canada and Mexico were lower, at about 10% and 5% respectively. In 2005, Internet usage in both the USA and Canada rose to around 70% of the population, while the figure for Mexico reached just over 25%.By 2009, the percentage of Internet users was highest in Canada. Almost 100% of Canadians used the Internet, compared to about 80% of Americans and only 40% of Mexicans.The map shows the growth of a village called Chorleywood between 1868 and 1994.It is clear that the village grew as the transport infrastructure was improved. Four periods of development are shown on the map, and each of the populated areas is near to the main roads, the railway or the motorway.From 1868 to 1883, Chorleywood covered a small area next to one of the main roads. Chorleywood Park and Golf Course is now located next to this original village area. The village grew along the main road to the south between 1883 and 1922, and in 1909 a railway line was built crossing this area from west to east. Chorleywood station is in this part of the village.The expansion of Chorleywood continued to the east and west alongside the railway line until 1970. At that time, a motorway was built to the east of the village, and from 1970 to 1994, further development of the village took place around motorway intersections with the railway and one of the main roads.。

To do this you need to use language expressing change and appropriate tenses. In the exam, make sure you leave time to edit your written answer. You will lose marks if you make too many mistakes in grammar and vocabulary.Model answerThe chart shows changes in the share of international students who graduated from universities in different Canadian provinces over a period of 5 years.In 2001, this share had a relatively narrow range, from 3% in Ontario to 7.0% in New Brunswick. Nova Scotia had the second highest proportion at 6.5%. Five years later, the figures for most provinces had risen, with the exception of Alberta. There, the figures fell by 1% to just over 4%.By 2006, some parts of Canada experienced a considerable increase in their share of international graduates. Growth in this share was especially strong in the case of New Brunswick, where the figures rose from 7% to 12%. The largest growth occurred in British Columbia, where it more than doubled to 11%.Over this five-year period, changes in the proportion of international graduates have been very uneven across the provinces of Canada. However, New Brunswick remained the province with the highest percentage overall.(158 words)103.You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.The chart below gives information about the UK's ageing population in 1985 and makes predictions for 2035.Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.Write at least 150 words.Source: Office for National Statistics, National Records of Scotland, Northern Ireland Statistics and ResearchAgencyExam TipIn Writing Task 1, it is essential to understand what the graph or chart is representing. Look closely at the information in the instructions as well as all details of the graph or chart.The graph in this task shows the percentage of over 65s in each country of the UK. The following are incorrect statements:•Wales had more over 65s than England. (The graph is in percentages, not numbers)•Northern Ireland had 12% of over 65s in 1985. (The countries do not add up to 100% so Northern Ireland did not have 12% of all over 65s. The graph shows that 12% of thepopulation of Northern Ireland was over 65.)Model answerThe graph shows how the size and distribution of the UK's ageing population is likely to change over a 50-year period.Overall, the proportions are predicted to increase in all UK countries.In 1985, 15 per cent of the UK population was over 65, but by 2035, this will account for 23 per cent of the total population.A closer look at the data reveals that the ageing population is expected to rise more in some parts of the UK than in other. In 1985, Wales had the highest percentage of people aged 65 and over, at 16 per cent. The second-largest group could be found in England and the third in Scotland. Northern Ireland had lowest proportion, with 12 per cent aged 65 and over.By 2035, Wales is still going to have by far the greatest percentage of over 65s, with figures likely to reach 26 per cent. However, the biggest increases in this age group, relative to the rest of the population, are predicted to occur in Northern Ireland and Scotland. In Northern Ireland, for example, this figure will increase almost double to 23 per cent.(189 words)104.You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.The diagrams below give information on transport and car use in Edmonton.Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.Write at least 150 words.People’s reasons for using the car in cityTest TipIn IELTS Writing Task 1, when you must describe two figures, ask yourself the following:1) What do both figures relate to?2) What kind of relationship is evident? (a similarity, a difference, a cause and effect relationship or some other type of relationship)3) Which aspects of each figure should be highlighted?4) Should I describe the figures in separate paragraphs, or should I compare different aspects of the figures within a series of paragraph?Model answerThe table shows the reason why people in Edmonton use their cars in the city and the pie chart explains what type of transport people prefer to use most of the time.Looking at the pie chart first, it is clear that the car is the most popular means of transport in this city. 45% of the people say that they prefer to commute by car. The second most popular form of transport is the LRT, while busses and taxis are the main means of transport for the rest of the people.The table gives more detailed information about why people use their cars. Surprisingly, 55% of the people need to commute to work by car. Cars are also used a lot for taking children to school or business purposes. Only 15% of drivers are doing their shopping and, similarly, 15% need to travel by car for leisure.Overall, people in Edmonton make good use of alternative methods of transport but there is a heavy dependence on cars for work.(170 words)105.You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.The bar chart below shows shares of expenditures for five major categories in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Japan in the year 2009.Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information below.Write at least 150 words.Source: U.S. Bureau of Labor StatisticsTest TipIn Writing Task 1, it is a good idea to end your answer by summarizing the main information shown by the diagram. You are not required to explain this information.Read the following sample answer. Complete the answer by filling the gaps with the words in the box.by contrast indicates lowest comparesoverall whereas except higherhighest however largest amongThe bar chart compares how consumers in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Japan allocated different shares of total spending to categories such as food, housing, and transportation in 2009.We can see that the United States had the highest housing expenditure share, 26% of total expenditures in 2009. The United Kingdom and Japan followed, with 24% and 22%, respectively. Canada had the lowest housing share at 21%. Housing was the largest expenditure component in all countries except Japan.By contrast, Canada had the largest transportation share of all four countries at 20%. The United States and the United Kingdom had the next-highest transportation shares, 17% and 15%, respectively. Japan had the lowest, at 10%.However, in Japan, consumers spent 23% of their total expenditures on food in 2009. The United Kingdom had the second-highest share at 20%. Canada, with 15%, and the United States, with 14% had the lowest food expenditure shares among the countries studied.Overall, the data indicates that housing and health care shares of total expenditures were higher in the United States than in Canada, the United Kingdom, and Japan in 2009, whereas Americans had the lowest clothing share. Canada had the highest clothing and transportation shares, and Japan had the highest food share, among the countries compared.Show Answers - Hide Answers(214 words)106.Vocabulary TipNotice the following rules for the spelling of the words programme and program:programme (UK only) = a show on televisionprogram (US only) = a show on televisionprogram (UK and US) = instructions for a computer (a verb and a noun) You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.The charts give information about two genres of TV programmes watched by men and women and four different age groups in Australia.Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.Write at least 150 words.IELTS Tip•With graphs, make sure you understand what each axis is measuring.•With bar and pie charts, there is often a key which tells you what each different bar or area represents.•With tables, read the data across the rows and down the columns to identify the key features.Fill in the gaps in the model answer.The charts give information about the genres of TV programmes that Australian men and women and different age groups watch. It is clear from the charts that women tend to watch more television than man overall, although they watch slightly fewer game shows. The people who watch themost television are in the 45+ age group.Nearly 70% of women watch reality shows, which is almost twice as many as the percentage of men who choose this genre of programme. Nevertheless, most age groups watch more reality shows than game shows revealing that game shows are generally less popular than reality shows.The percentage of people watching reality shows increases steadily from ages 16 to 45 with the lowest / smallest percentage of viewers, at just over 50% of the age group 16-24 and the highest / biggest / largest / greatest percentage, at 68% of the over-45s.However, the pattern is different for game shows. The number of programmes watched by 25- to 44-year-olds is significantly / considerably lower than the number watched by 16- to 24-year-olds and those over 45. Just over 50% of 16- to 24-year-olds watch game shows, but this share is not as high as the share of people aged 45 and over watching game shows, at nearly 70%. Only 41% of 35- to 44-year-olds watch game shows, and the share of 24- to 34-year-olds is slightly / even lower at 38%.107.You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.The graph below shows the changes in food consumption by Chinese people between 1985 and 2010.Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.Write at least 150 words.Writing TipIt is best to use amount and quantity for uncountable nouns, although both are used for countable nouns as well, particularly quantity.The amount of consumption decreased in the last 25 years.AnswerThe graph shows changes in the amount of fish, salt and meat eaten per person per week in China between 1985 and 2010.From the graph we can see that people in China consumed more fish than either meat or salt throughout the period. In 1985, the consumption of fish stood at 610 grams, then increased to 700 grams in 1990. Although it dipped in 1995, it then rose steadily and reached 850 grams in 2010.In contrast, there was a consistent drop in salt consumption. The amount consumed decreased steadily from almost 500 grams per person to only 200 grams by 2010. The amount of meat consumed weekly started at about 100grams. However, this gradually increased throughout the period. By 2010 it was at the same level as the consumption of salt.Overall, the consumption of fish rose, while the consumption of salt fell. In addition, the consumption of meat, while at a relatively low level, rose significantly during this period.108.You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.The graph below shows the population change between 1940 and 2000 in three different counties in the U.S. state of Oregon.Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.Write at least 150 words.IELTS TipThe structure of your answer would look like this:Introduction - Explain briefly in your own words what the information shows. Give more detail than the question and make comparisons where appropriate.Main Body - Decide how to organise your paragraphs. For example, in the model answer below, paragraph 2is about 1940-1970, paragraph 3is about 1970-2000 for Columbia and Yamhill, and paragraph 4 is about 1970-2000 for Washington. Use words such as although and however to make contrasts, and words such as likewise to introduce similarities. Always include the actual data you have been given. The final paragraph is not a conclusion in this type of task.Model answerThe graph shows the increase in population of three counties, Columbia, Yamhill and Washington in the U.S. state of Oregon, between 1940 and 2000. In 1940, Columbia had the lowest population of the three counties, at around 25,000. This compared with about 30,000 in Yamhill and approximately 75,000 in Washington.By 1970, Columbia’s population had risen to just under 36,000. Although this appears on the graph to be a gentle increase, it is in fact an increase of approximately 50%. Yamhill’s population also rose by nearly 50% between 1940 and 1970: from 30,000 to just under 45,000. However, the greatest real increase was in Washington, where the population in 1970 had increased by approximately 75,000, to 125,000.The years 1970 to 2000 saw the populations of Columbia and Yamhill increase by approximately the same amounts that they had increased by the thirty years before. In 2000, Columbia’s population –at approximately 76,000 –was triple what it had been in 1940. Likewise, Yamhill’s population, at around 90,000, was almost triple what it was in 1940.Although Washington’s increase in population between 1940 and 1970 was large, its increase in the following thirty years was even sharper, rising from about 125,000 in 1970 to more than 240,000 in 2000.(206 words)109.IELTS TipYou will lose marks if you make grammatical errors in your writing, particularly when errors are frequent and effect meaning. Be careful of the following common mistakes when describing numbers.amount and number: amount is used with uncountable nouns; number is used with countable nouns, e.g. The amount of meat consumed in China between 1985 and 2010. NOT .per cent and percentage: per cent is always used with a number; percentage is used on its own without a number, e.g. The percentage of male teachers in the UK. NOT . According to the graph, four per cent of the total household budget went towards transportation. NOT .You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.The graph below shows the amount of money spent on books in Germany, France, Italy and Austria between 1995 and 2005.Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information below.Write at least 150 words.Read the following sample answer. Complete the answer by filling the gaps with the words in the box.biggest sharp least dramaticallymuch less more three timesThe line graph compares the amount of money spent on buying books in Germany, France, Italy and Austria over a period of ten years between 1995 and 2005.In 1995 Austria spent the least amount of money on books, while Italy and France spent about as much as each other. However, by 2001, the gap in spending between these two countries had widened and considerably more money was spent in France than In Italy.As can be seen from the graph, the amount of money spent increased in all four countries but rose the most dramatically in Austria. The period between 2000 and 2005 saw a sharp growth and in 2005 the Austrians spent three times as much money as they did in 1995.However, during this ten-year period, Germany remained the biggest spenders on book, with all three other countries spending much less on them.110.IELTS TipIt is quite common for IELTS Writing Task 1 to involve more than one piece of information relating to the topic. For example, you may get two or three pie charts that you must compare. The pie charts may represent different years and show trends over time. In this case, you will have to describe the changes and similarities/differences between the pie charts.Related Topic: Comparing pie chartsYou should spend about 20 minutes on this task.The three pie charts below show the changes in annual spending by local authorities in Someland in 1980, 1990 and 2000.Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.Write at least 150 words.Expenditure by local authorities in SomelandModel answerThe charts show how much local authorities spent on a range of services in Someland in three separate years: 1980, 1990 and 2000.In all three years, the greatest expenditure was on education. But while K-12 education saw a fall from 25% in 1980 to only 18% of spending in 2000, higher education remained the largest proportion, reaching 45% of total spending in 1990 and ending at 40% in 2000.Expenditure on health and human resources had increased to 20% by 1990before decreasing to only 10% by the end of the period. In contrast, the share of transportation saw an opposite trend. This cost decreased to only 6% of total expenditure in 1990 but rose dramatically in 2000 when it represented 22% of the total budget. Similarly, the cost of environmental services saw a rising trend, growing from only 4% to 9% by 2000.Overall, higher education constituted the largest cost to local authorities, and while spending increased for transportation and environmental services, there were corresponding drops in expenditure on health and human resources and K-12 education.(178 words)。
