The bar chart illustrates data about the amount of spending expended for five
different goods in two countries during 2010. Units are measured in thousands.
Overall, the most of money was spent for cars while perfume was less preferred
than other types of goods. Besides, British people expended their budget more than
the French.
While the disparity between the two figures was the same in the figures for cars
and books, UK ranked first in both figures with 450 and 400, respectively.
Regarding the expenditure quantity for computers, the figure for France was higher
by narrow margin from that of UK, as the latter responsible for the lowest with
350.
The people who lived in UK were not quite as eager to buy perfume as the French,
spending 150 compared to 200.
The amount of spending spent for cameras in UK was almost twice as high as that
of France, 350 opposed to 150.
The pie charts illustrate data about the different book’s rate sold by a bookseller
over four decades from 1972 to 2012.
Overall, while the shares of three figures declined gradually, there were increases
in the remaining two. Besides, adult fiction books were sold in highest amount
throughout the period, while biographical books had small amount of sale until the
end of the span.
Initially, the “other” types of books were bought mostly and its share was
accounted for a quarter in 1972 before experiencing almost a twofold decrease by
2012. In comparison, the proportion for adult fiction, it rose minimally by 5% to
25% until 1992 and reached a peak of 45% at the last year of the question. As for
the figures for children’s fiction and biography, there was an reverse trend, as the
former witnessed a periodical growth, from 20% to 25%, and the latter dipped
steadily to 15% by 1992, finally arriving at 8% at the period end. Regarding the
travel books, their sale was slightly uncommon both beginning and at the end of
the period. Despite a slight rise to 18% in 1992, its share (travel) then hit a trough
of 10% over the course of next twenty years.
The pie charts illustrate information about different types of energy capacities in
2012 and with the anticipation of 2030.
Overall, while the rates of three energy capacities is expected to increase steadily
throughout the period, there will be declines in the remaining three. Besides, fossil
fuels is to contribute the largest share in whole energy capacity, whereas flexible
capacity will have the smallest proportion.
There will be an expansion in the whole proportion of energy capacity from 5,579
GW to 10,596 GW between 2012 and 2030. The general trend for the decreases of
three different energy-producing factors until the latter year of the question. For
example, fossil fuels – the largest proportion in both years – its share is anticipated
to lessen considerably by 20% to 44, and the “other” energy factors – second
highest – is to dip by less than a fifth. The share of nuclear is also predicted to
experience a minimal decline by a percent to 5%.
By marked contrast, the shares of wind and flexible capacity are to double by
2030, rising from 5% and 12% to 1% to 2%, respectively. As for the solar energy
factor, its percentage is predicted to witness a ninefold growth to 18%.

in terms of their types over four decades from 1980 to 2020. The units were
measured in tonnes.
Overall, while spinach was the most favoured vegetable, the peas were least
preferred one throughout the period. Besides, figures for spinach and ginger
decreased gradually over the entire span, whereas that of other remaining three
witnessed steady increases.
The broccoli – the second highest on the list – experienced a moderate growth by a
quarter to 250 until 2010, reaching a peak of 300 at the period end. Turning to the
garlic, despite rising steadily to 360 in 2000, its quantity then remained stable over
the course of next decade before peaking at 400 in 2020. As for the share of peas, it
remained static at 150 by 2000 and increased slightly by 20 at the last year of the
question.
By marked contrast, having declined by 11% until 2000, the figure for spinach
then hit a trough of 350 by the end of the period. Likewise, there was a
considerable growth, from 250 to 310, in the import rate for ginger until 2000 and
the figure dipped gradually to 260 in 2020.
The line graph provides data about how many shops were closed and opened in
one certain country over a seven-year period from 2011 to 2018.
Overall, although there were initially more openings, it was overtaken by the
closure of shops towards the end of the period. Besides, despite fluctuating widely
throughout the period, the both figures then experienced declines until the period
end.
Regarding the number of openings, there was a considerable decrease by almost a
half in 2012 and its figure then rose moderately by 2,000 to 6,000 by 2014. Having
had another decline until 2015, the figure then remained static at 4,000 before
hitting a trough of 3,000 at the end of the period.
By marked contrast, the figure for closures of shops fluctuated mildly between
6,000 and 7,000 by 2014 before worsening dramatically, arriving just below 1,000
in 2015. Despite a fivefold increase over the course of following year, the number
of closed shops then almost remained stable until 2018.
The line graph illustrates data about the number of jobs which were available in
four different sectors of US economy over six decades from 1960 to 2020. Units
were measured in millions.
Overall, although manufacturing was initially consisted vast number of jobs, it was
overtaken by retail as well as healthcare sectors towards end of the period. Besides,
while the figures for manufacturing and agriculture declined gradually, that of
retail and healthcare witnessed steady rises.
Regarding the manufacturing sector, despite increasing by a third until 1980, its
figure then registered a moderate decrease to just under 15 in 2020. Looking at the
agriculture sector, having dipped slightly by 3 to 3 in 1980, the number of jobs
there then remained static over the course of next twenty years before hitting a
trough of around 2 by the end of the period.
By marked contrast, the numbers of jobs in retail and healthcare sectors (in 1960, 6
and 3, respectively) escalated consistently, passing 15 (retail) and just above 10
(healthcare) by 2000 and finally both reached a joint-highest number of 16 in the
last year of the question.

foreign languages in terms of their rate.
Overall, while Indian students have better skills to speak in learning languages,
Chinese students are less proficient. Besides, almost all countries females dominate
in being excelled at languages, except for Thailand where males know more
foreign languages than females.
In China, the quantity of males is twice as high as that of females, with 15%
compared to 30%.
Whereas the disparity between the rates of women and men is almost the same in
Romania and India, women is responsible for the highest share in both places with
64% and 69%, respectively.
In Russia also females rank first at about two-fifths, just ahead of males at more
than a third.
The Vietnamese men are not as eager to speak other languages as women, only
40% opposed to 56%.
By marked contrast, female students rank second in Thailand, while share of males
is higher by a narrow margin (27% and 29%, respectively).
The bar chart highlights data about the amount of waste collected by a recycling
center over four years between 2011 and 2015. The units were measured in tonnes.

the garden contributed the least. Besides, there were increases in all figures despite
slight fluctuations throughout the period.
Regarding paper wastage, having had a decline by almost 20 to 50 until 2013, its
figure then increased consistently, reaching a peak of 70 in 2015. As for the figure
for glass waste, there was a mild fluctuation at around 44 by 2013 before rising
slightly to just over 50. The amounts of wastage collected by tins and garden hit a
trough (27 and 15, respectively) until 2012, and the former figure then witnessed a
periodical growth by 12 to 39 whereas that of latter finally peaked at just over a
thirty at the end of the period.

categories by four different nations during 2009.
Overall, people of all nations spent their money mostly on housing while least
expended category was health care. Besides, the total expenditure of American
people was on the top whereas that of Japanese people stood last.
Regarding the category of food, japan was at the first on the list with 23%, making
it slightly more than UK with 21% and the figure for Canada came next, just ahead
of US, 15% compared to 14%.
