Writing Task 1 - Line graph
Posted: Thu Feb 26, 2015 3:55 am
The line graph shows data on books expenditure in 4 countries over the period shown. It can be clearly seen that there was an upward trend in the amount of money spent on books, although the most significant increase could be seen in Austria.
In 1995, Germany spent 80 million dollars on reading, which was 25 million dollars more than France. Following closely was Italy at 50 million dollars, while Austria spent the least on books (30 million dollars). Apart from a drop from 1999 to 2003, Germany figure continued to rise to 95 million dollars in 2005. Italy number shared a similar pattern with a fall between 1997 and 1999 before an increase by 10 million dollars in the next 6 years. France and Austria are two countries that spent an increasing amount of money on books (except a standstill period from 1999 to 2001 in Austria). By 2005, roughly 65 million dollars was spent on books in each country.
In conclusion, over a ten-year period, the number of people reading books in these countries had increased sharply.
Thanks in advance for any evaluation
