Number of enquiries to tourist Information
officeSample Answer:
The line graph outlines the number of
queries a tourist information centre
received during the first half of 2001 via
phone calls and letter/electronic mails as
well as questionings made by people in
person. Generally speaking, people started
making more enquiries in person after
March 2001 while email and letter query
dropped.As the graph suggests, the tourist
information office received around 1800
enquiries from people in January 2001 of
which the maximum came through
phones. Against 800 phone queries at that
time they got 600 emails and letters and
400 in-person visits from people regarding
information. The number of emails or
postal queries dropped over the period and
in June the office received only 200 such
queries, one-third than that of starting of
the year. Interestingly, more people visited
the office to log their questions and this
number reached to 1200 in the middle of
the year. Though telephone enquiries were
predominant at the beginning of the year,
they remained constant between January
and April. Afterwards, the telephone
enquiries got higher and reached to about1100 in June 2001, slightly lower than the
number of enquiries made in person. The
total number of such prove made by
people to this tourist office increased to
nearly 2500, almost 500 more enquiries
than that of January.
