5 Line Graph Format


Introduction
Start with a paraphrase of the question.
• Sentence 1: The provided line graph illustrates/depicts/shows the changes in ______ over a period of
______ years/months.
Example: The provided line graph illustrates the trends in the number of tourists visiting three different
countries between 2000 and 2020.
Overview
Highlight the main trends, making comparisons where necessary. Avoid specific numbers.
• Sentence 1: Overall, it is evident that ______ experienced a significant increase/decrease, while ______
remained relatively stable/underwent fluctuations.
• Sentence 2: Additionally, ______ was the highest/lowest at the beginning and end of the period.
Example: Overall, it is evident that the number of tourists in Country A and Country B increased
significantly, whereas Country C saw a steady decline. Additionally, Country A consistently had the
highest number of tourists over the period.
Body Paragraph 1
Describe one part of the graph, focusing on specific trends and figures.
• Sentence 1: At the beginning of the period, ______ stood at ______, while ______ was ______.
• Sentence 2: Over the next few years, ______ increased/decreased sharply/gradually to ______.
• Sentence 3: By the end of the period, ______ had reached a peak/lowest point at ______.
Example: At the beginning of the period, the number of tourists in Country A stood at 1 million, while
Country B recorded 500,000 visitors. Over the next decade, Country A saw a steady rise to 3 million,
reaching a peak of 4 million by 2020.
Body Paragraph 2
Discuss the remaining trends or comparisons with specific data.
• Sentence 1: In contrast, ______ started at ______ and showed a different pattern.
• Sentence 2: It initially rose/fell to ______ before fluctuating/remaining stable throughout the period.
• Sentence 3: By the end of the period, ______ was at ______, which was higher/lower than ______.
Example: In contrast, the number of tourists in Country C started at 2 million and gradually fell to 1 million by
2010. It then fluctuated between 1 million and 1.5 million before ending at 1 million in 2020.
Pie Charts
The chart below shows residential water use in the UK.

Remember:
• Pie charts will usually show amounts as a percentage between two time periods, locations or reasons for doing
something.
• Make sure to check time periods and which categories are presented in which pie charts.
Format-Introduction:
• The pie charts show + (paraphrase the title) + over a period of ______ years/months + where + types +
Format-Overview:
Overall, the amount of (thing/things) in each section has (changed/not changed) between the two pie charts. + New use of
(thing/things) can be seen in the (first/second/third) pie chart. + (Number) types of (thing/things) have (increased) + while
(Number) types of (thing/things) have (decreased) in amount during the (10-year period). + (Noun or Countable nouns)
types of (thing/things) had the biggest change.
Format-Body1:
The amount of (thing/things) used for (purpose) in the (10-year period) (didn’t change very much/changed
enormously/changed gradually/didn’t change at all). The (least) amount of (thing/things) used in (year) was for (what).
Though (thing/things) use in the (where) increased more than (thing/things) use in the (where), (thing/things) use in the
(where) decreased more than (thing/things) use for (where). The types of (thing/things) used the most in (year/years or year
and year) are (where and where) respectively.
Format-Body2:
The amount of (thing/things) used for the (where) changed by (the amount) over (10-year period). (What) were an
(additional category) in (year). In [year], [new category] emerged as an additional segment, contributing
[number/percentage] to the overall [thing/things] consumption in that year. The combined (thing/things) consumption for
[where1] and [where2] rose by [percentage]% over the [time period]. Conversely, the combined [thing/things] consumption
for [where3] and [where4] declined by [percentage]% over the [time period]. The most significant change in [thing/things]
usage over the [time period] was a [percentage]% decrease in [specific use]."
Introduction

The pie charts illustrate (paraphrase the title) over a span of X years/months, comparing (location, type, or
group). Each chart highlights the proportions of (thing/things) used for different purposes, offering insights
into (specific details, e.g., trends or changes).

Overview

Overall, there have been notable (changes/stability) in the distribution of (thing/things) between the two
charts. A new (category/use) appeared in the (first/second) pie chart, reflecting (emerging trends/shifting
preferences). While (X types) of (thing/things) increased in proportion, (Y types) experienced a decline over
the (time period). The most significant shift was observed in (specific category/use), which accounted for the
largest (growth/reduction).

Body Paragraph 1

In (year), the use of (thing/things) for (specific purpose) underwent (minimal/moderate/substantial) changes
over the (time period). The smallest proportion of (thing/things) was allocated to (category), at (percentage)
in (year). While (thing/things) usage in (location/purpose) grew more than in (location/purpose), the
opposite trend was observed in (location/purpose), where a sharper decline occurred. The most prominent uses
in (year) were (category1) and (category2), accounting for (percentage) and (percentage) respectively.

Body Paragraph 2

The proportion of (thing/things) allocated to (purpose) saw a (specific increase/decrease) of (percentage)


over the (time period). Additionally, (specific category) emerged as a new segment in (year), contributing
(percentage) to the total. The combined share of (category1) and (category2) rose by (percentage), reflecting
a growing emphasis on (specific trend). Conversely, the total percentage for (category3) and (category4)
declined by (percentage), highlighting a reduced focus on (specific use). The most dramatic change was a
(percentage) (increase/decrease) in (specific category), signalling a significant shift in priorities over the
(time period).
Maps
The chart below shows residential water use in the UK.

Remember:
• It is important to look at the map in detail and make sure you understand exactly what it is showing. It might be
outside in a city or inside in a building.
• Maps will usually show changes to a place that have happened (in the past) or changes that are going to happen
(future) and you may have to compare these with the present day.
• Make sure you understand what kinds of features are being shown in the map; this could be roads, buildings,
parks, rooms, or hallways.
• In a map, this data must take the form of the location of the key features on the map. This could be north, south,
east or west, distance or the location of a feature in relation to another one.
• Make sure to check how the data is presented in the map (direction, location, distance etc.).
