LESSON 5 (DRAFT 1)

The given line graph compares the amount of fish, lamb, beef and chicken consumed weekly
per person between 1979 and 2004. In general, it is clear that the consumption of all these
types of fish and meat showed a downward trend throughout the period except for chicken,
which bucked the trend. It is also noticeable that the quantity of fish recorded the lowest
figure.

In 1979, a person consumed roughly 210 grams of beef

per week, whereas the figures for chicken, lamb and fish
were approximately 140, 150 and 50 grams respectively.
After that, the consumption of chicken rose dramatically
and by 1994, it had surpassed beef and lamb to rank first
with 220 grams.

In 2004, the amount of chicken consumed by a person weekly reached an all-time high of
nearly 260 grams and took the lead, while that of fish was only around 50 grams. The figures
for beef and lamb ranged from 60 to 110 grams per person per week.
The line graph illustrates the
proportion of families with electrical
appliances. Overall, it is clear that all
these types of electrical appliances
shared an upward trend throughout the
period given. Refrigerators was highest
in the majority of time and it also
witnessed the most significant change .

In 1920, Washing machines were head and shoulder above the others with 40% of
households, followed by Vacuum cleaners and Refrigerators with 30% and nearly 0%
respectively. Refrigerators increased sharply before surpassing Washing machines and
Vacuum cleaners to rank first with 90% by 1960. At the same time, the figures for Washing
machines and Vacuum cleaners coverged at 70%.

In the next 59 years, the percentage of households with Refrigerators and Vacuum cleaners
climbed moderately and ended at 100% in 2019. The figure for Washing machines fluctuated
with an upward trend and stood at only 75% in 2019.
 LESSON 3 (DRAFT 2)

 (Fish) In 1979, the amount of fish

consumption was about 60 grams per person
per week. After that, this figure fluctuated
mildly with a downward trend and ended at
approximately 50 grams in 2004.

 (Lamb) There were roughly 150 grams of

lamb consumed per person per week.
Throughout the following 25 years, this
figure fluctuated steadily with a downward
trend. Afterwards, one person consumed
practically 70 grams of lamb per week in 2004.

 (Beef) In 1979, one person consumed about 220 grams of beef per week. After
that, this figure fluctuated significantly with a downward trend and hit the lowest
point of around 120 in 2002. Afterwards, the quantity of beef consumption
finished at 130 in 2004.
 (Chicken) In 1979, there were nearly 150 grams of chicken consumed weekly on
average . From 1979 onwards this figure fluctuated significantly with an upward
trend and reached an all-time high of approximately 260 in 200 by 2004. After
that, chicken consumption decreased slightly before ending at roughly 260 in
2004.
 (Men) In 1960, the proportion of male smokers was 600 out of 1000 people in
Someland . Throughout the following 40 years, this figure declined moderately
and sank to a low of roughly 250 in 2000.
 (Women) In 1960, the ratio of female smokers in Someland was nearly 100 out of
1000 . Throughout the following 5 years, this figure increased gradually before
staying unchanged and reaching an all time high of roughly 300 in 1975. After
that, the quantity of female smokers saw a stability followed by a slight dip and
ended at 200 in 2000.
