The graph and table below give information about water use worldwide and water consumption in two different countries.
Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
Write at least 150 words.
TEST TAKER'S RESPONSE.
The line graph compares the amount of water used in three sectors globally over a century, and the table shows the water consumption in Brazil and Congo in 2000.
It is clear that the usage of water for agriculture was by far the highest amount over the period shown. We also can see that Brazil spent much more water in 2000.
According the pie chart, water used for agriculture saw the highest amount among the three sectors given in 1900, at about 500 km3, while the figure for the other sectors was negligible. 50 years later, after the gradual increase, the number escalated dramatically to a peak of 3,000 km3 in 2000. Both industrial and domestic use of water reported a stable amount in the first half of the century and grew steadily in the later years, reaching to 1,100 km3 and 400 km3 each in the last year of the period, though remained far below the levels of consumption by agriculture.
Looking at the table, the population and the water consumption of Brazil were roughly 40 times as the numbers of D.R.C in 2000, with the former reporting 176 millions to 5.2 millions and the latter 39 m3 to 8 m3 respectively. Irrigation accounted for much water supply volume. To be specific, Brazil used 26,500 km2 compared with the 100 km2 used by Congo.
This is commendable, the grammar errors are negligible but all the same should be addressed. You should be so careful when reading through the essay. You used some good sentence structures in your response however, you still need to use some more lexical resources. “As exhibited in the pie chart, a souring amount of water was used for agriculture in 1900, accounting for 500 km3.” The structure is good. The introduction and main body are well developed. The response is well organized too. There is good linkage of paragraphs and ideas within the paragraphs. The subject matter is good. The introduction well hints on the data presented. In the main body, the description made of the data is good. You made a good comparison of the data too. The extraction of the data is exhaustive. In all, just avoid the simple errors by being careful when reading through the essay. The structure and data description are good.
