The two graphs compare the effect of two biocides: GE and HI. Without the treatment, the purity degrees of the polluted water drop to less than 20% after five months.
Therefore, it would be advisable to apply the BE biocide for its effect is good and stable.
• Sample 5: • Question 1 • The graph below shows the amount of fast food eaten between 1970 and 1990. • Using the information in the graph and write a report. • Write 120-140 words.
In contrast, the effect of the HI biocide treatment is unsatisfactory. Although the HI biocide appears to be very effective in the first two months, its effect declined steadily. It can even add more pollutant to the water at last.
The effect of the GE treatment is reasonably sound. As the purity degree of water without treatment falls to 35% after three months, the one with GE biocides is shown to be as pure as 70% at that time. After five months, the purity degree of the treated water still maintains 40%.

In contrast, sales of hamburger and pizza rocketed. In 1970, very little pizza was eaten - less than 50g/week. This rose to 280g/week by 1990. In the same period, hamburger sales shot up by more than 500%, from 100g/week in 1970 to 500 grams in 1990. In conclusion, although there was a big increase in the consumption of pizza and hamburger, sales of fish and chips decreased.

Profits in retail trade also kept on growing, while profits in other industries dropped sharply to no more than 400 million dollars in 1993-1994 following the steady previous increase.
Sample 2
• Question 1: • The two graphs indicate the effect of two biocides: GE and HI, used to purify the polluted water during the five months. • Using the information from the graphs, write a short report comparing the situation when two brands of biocides are applied with the situation without the treatment. Write 120-140 words on the separate answer paper provided. •
