The table illustrates the proportion of age, the average salary of a person, and the

population under low income in three states: California, Utal, and Florida in
America.
Overall, aged under 18 in Utal is the highest proportion in every state, whereas
population under poverty level in Utal is the lowest. Aged over 60 is the least
number in Utal compared to the two states; similarly, a person's average income is
the same.
Young people under age 18 are at the top at 28% in Utal, while those aged over 60
is 8% and residents under poverty line is 9% respectively. In addition to this, an
individual's average salary is 17,000 dollars in Utal, which is the least as opposed
to California and Florida. The figure sees 23,000 dollars per person's normal
income in California and 22,000 dollars in Florida separately.
While aged under 18 category is shown 16% in Florida and 17% in California
individually, aged over 60 is 23% in Florida, which is more than 10% in
California. There is a 12% the number of people less than poverty route in
California, which is only 4% more than Florida's population.

Governments should spend money on railways rather than roads. To what

extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?
It is argued that governments should use the money on railways instead of roads. I
totally agree with this opinion because railways are more convenient for seeing
nature, saving money for daily costs and economic growth.
First of all, funding railways improves green travel because people can see the
natural things when taking trains. Constructing roads encourages an increase in car
use and accidents. However, upgrading railways by the government can outcome
in a reduction of not only fuel but also an individual's daily expenses. In addition to
this, environmentally conscious is restored as a citizen's responsibility when
exploring the country by train.
Secondly, economic rise and opportunities have been brought to a country’s
development sector. Building railways to connect one town to another is seen as
rapid trading. Furthermore, international relations with countries are more
powerful economically because of having updated railways. For instance, Belt and
Road Initiative by China was also included in raising railways. The plan is
advantageous for many countries, in particular poor countries. There are many
controversies about BRI or B&R; despite this, it will lead to economic
improvement fastly, but also living standards. As a result, people can escape from
the poverty line: a person's income is less than US $2 per day defined by UNDP.
To conclude, government spending on railways should be rather than spending on
roads. Investment in creating railways boosts green travel and economic changes,
and another point is creating an individual's life better by cutting travel costs rather
than using cars on a daily basis.
