The chart below shows the expenditure of two countries

on consumer goods in 2010


The given bar chart demonstrates the amount of money spent on 5
consumer goods in France and the UK in 2010.
Overall, both the British and the French spent most of their money
on cars while the total of money was spent on perfume was the least.
While computers and perfume were spent more in France than in the
UK, the opposite was true for the other items.
In terms of cars, Britons spent the amount of money than any
given items, about 450,000 pounds compared to France who spent
400,000 pounds. Similarly, the British spent more money on books
than the French (about 400,000 pounds in the UK and 300,000 pounds
in France). In the UK, the expenditure in cameras (over 350,000
pounds) was double that of France, which was only 150,000 pounds.
On the other hand, the money spent on the remaining goods was
higher in France. About 370,000 pounds was spent by the French on
computers which was slightly more than the British who spent
350,000 pounds. Neither of the countries spent much on perfume
which accounted for 200,000 pounds of expenditure in France and
140,000 pounds in the UK.

Transport Modes In A European City


The given bar graph demonstrates changes in the transport used to
and from work in a particular European city in three different years
from 1960 to 2000.
In the beginning, the number of people using car were the lowest
then increased sharply, while the other transport were declined.
Noticeably, cars were chosen the least in 1960 but became the most
popular means of transport in the end.
In 1960, travelling on foot was the most popular form of
transportation to commute to work, accounting for 35%, compared
with 25% of bike users. Then, in 2000, the percentage of travelers
who traveled on foot decreased slightly to less than 10%. Similarly,
the proportion of travelers using bike plummeted to 5%, and the bike
became the least used vehicle in 2000, it had a fivefold decreased
since 1960.
In contrast, buses and car witnessed different trends in their figures.
In 1960, buses accounted for under 20% four times as much as cars.
However, in 1980 the proportion of commuters who went to work by
bus reached over 25%, making it the most popular means of transport
in that year. Although the percentage of car users has increased
significantly by 35%, surpassed the number of people using buses and
becoming the most used means of transportation in 2000, the number
of bus users decreased to 17%.
