And there are a few differences among these countries.

First of all, it is clear that British spent nearly 170 thousand pounds on the Photographic film, and far more than other countries. The second is French people who spent more than 165 thousand pounds. British also spent 165 thousand pounds for toys and CDs, which are higher than other four nations. But for Tennis racquets, British are the same as Italy and more than other two counties. 

In addition, we can notice distinctively that Italians spent over 155 thousand pounds for Toys which are more than other consumer goods, and we can conclude that for Personal stereos, four countries are all slow down slightly and Germans are the least one.

Furthermore, Germans spent 145 thousand pounds approximately for both Toys and CDs, besides, it is also the least among four countries. It is also easily to find that Britain is the highest country for six consumer goods while Germany is the least one in total.

  • Grammatical Range and Accuracy
  • Task Achievement
  • Lexical Resource
  • Coherence and Cohesion
Therefore, grammar accounts for 25% of the marks in your writing test.

You are assessed on two things:
  1. Your ability to produce grammatically accurate sentences;
  2. Your ability to use a wide range of grammar structures.

In IELTS writing task 1 you may have to describe trends. This may come up in a line graph, bar chart or when comparing more than one chart. There are two main grammatical structures we can use to describe trends.
There + be + adj. + noun + in + noun phrase
Example:
There was a gradual rise in the price of oil.
There has been a sharp drop in the price of oil.

Possible adjectives
  • gradual
  • moderate
  • modest
  • sharp
  • dramatic
  • slight
  • steep
  • steady
  • significant
  • considerable
  • rapid
Possible nouns:
  • decline
  • variation
  • decrease
  • dip
  • drop
  • fall
  • peak
  • fluctuation
  • growth
  • increase
  • rise
  • slump
Noun phrase + verb + adverb
Example:
The price of oil rose gradually.
The price of oil has risen dramatically.

Possible verbs:
  • rise
  • jump
  • grow
  • climb
  • increase
  • rocket
  • fall
  • drop
  • decline
  • decrease
  • go down
  • plummet
  • plunge
Possible adverbs:
  • gradually
  • moderately
  • modestly
  • sharply
  • dramatically
  • slightly
  • steeply
  • steadily
  • significantly
  • considerably
  • rapidly
  • slowly

Describing Increases and Decreases
When describing any of the charts in IELTS writing task 1, you might have to describe increases and decreases. There are three main ways you can describe increases and decreases.
Noun phrase + verb + adverb
Example:
The price of property fell sharply
The percentage of homes dropped dramatically.
There + be + noun + in + noun phrase
Example:
There was a fall in literacy levels.
There has been an increase in the cost of coffee.

Using fractions
Example:
The price of oil halved in less than a year.
The price of oil has halved since July.
By July, the price of oil has halved.

Making Comparisons

IELTS writing task 1 will often require you to make comparisons between data sources, groups and times. Here are five grammatical structures you can use to make comparisons.

More/few/less + noun + than
Example:
Overall, more people preferred public transport than taxis.

of one syllable -er + than
Example:
A higher number of people preferred public transport than taxis.

More/less + adj. of more than one syllable + than
Example:
Taxis were more popular than public transport.

of one syllable -est.
Example: 
The highest % of commuters preferred taxis.

The most/least + adj. of more than one syllable.
Example:
The least popular mode of transport was buses.

Summarising
IELTS writing task 1 is essentially a summarising task. Your overview paragraph should contain two or three sentences summarising the main features of the graph. In order to help you do this, here are some short phrases.

  • To summarise, the most marked change is….
  • Overall, it is clear….
  • Overall, the majority/minority….
  • In sum, the most noticeable trend is….
Don’t say ‘to conclude’. This is only for discursive essays.

Tenses
Using the appropriate tenses in IELTS writing task 1 is essential if you want to get a high band score.
The key is to look at the title of the chart and the information contained on both axes to establish what time frame is used. This will help you establish what tense you should use.

Example:
  • If the time is one point in the past, for example January 1990, then we should use the past tense.
  • If it has projections for the future, for example 2045, we use future tenses.
  • It there is no time, we use present simple.
Below are a range of tenses that could be used in task 1. Remember, the tense you use will depend on the information displayed in the graph. This is not a complete list of tenses and an awareness of all the English tenses will help you achieve the IELTS score you need.

Present Perfect:
We use this tense generally to talk about an action that happened at an unspecified time before now. The exact time period is not important.
In writing task 1, we use this tense to talk about changes in data that have happened over a period of time.
Example
The price of oil has fallen by $5 a barrel every week since July.

Present Perfect Continuous
We use this tense to show that something started in the past and has continued up until now.
Example
Oil prices have been decreasing since July.

Future Perfect
We use this tense to state that something will be finished by a particular time in the future.
We often use it with ‘by’ or ‘in’.
Example
The price of oil will have reached $300 a barrel by 2020.

Past Simple
Use this tense to talk about an action that started and finished at a specific time in the past.
Example
The price of oil fell from $150 in Jan 2014 to $50 in Jan 2015.

Approximations, Percentages and Fractions
In many of the IELTS writing task 1 questions, you will have to deal with percentages. This is a good opportunity to express these percentages in a different way and boost your score. A way of varying this language is to express them as fractions or proportions.
Remember that you should vary your language as much as possible in order to score high in the ‘lexical resource’ part of the test.
For instance, use approximations. E.g. 49% can be expressed as “nearly a half”.
Below are a range of expressions that can be used to express percentages.

Fractions
73%- nearly three quarters
51%- just over a half
49%- just under a half
32%- nearly a third
3%- a tiny fraction
50%- exactly a half
26%- roughly one quarter
49%- around a half
24%- almost a quarter
77%- approximately three quarters

Proportions
70%- a large proportion
71%- a significant majority
15% a small minority

Firstly, it is obvious that the farmland area and forest park have been merged and replaced by golf courses with tennis facilities. From my perspective, because of that, a car park has been constructed next to a hotel for entertaining the visitors. Secondly, a fishing port has been demolished, which impacts on the disappearance of a big fish market.  This has given way to apartments instead of the fish market in this area. So, the economy of this village has been transformed fish industry into residential  industry. Additionally, as another feature, a new road has been constructed next to the main road so that more houses have been built than in 1995. 

In conclusion, this village has been developed into a housing facility rather than a fishing area.

In 1995, the village was surrounded by a forest park and a farm land which has been demolished to give place for the construction of a golf course and tennis facilities. The housing terrain in the west north of the village has been expanded and it's for this reason that more houses have been built. In addition, the hotel has constructed its own car park. Nevertheless, some of the places in the village have disappeared, not just the farm land and the forest park but also the shop, the fish market and the fishing port. Additionally, the shop has been replaced by the restaurant and the fish market has been turned into apartments. It can also be seen that the fishing port has completely disappeared, and the cafe has been conserved since 1995 until now. ]]> 2020-08-25 02:22:39 UTC https://padlet.com/myenglishpage/z1cyutgeic9w/wish/696380691 Bárbara 25/08/2020 https://padlet.com/myenglishpage/z1cyutgeic9w/wish/696380858 The village of Ryemouth map between 1995 and present shows the development that has happened in the village. The main features are: In 1995 the village had a fishing port but it has been disappeared and now has a free space in this area.  In 1995 the village had a fish market but it has been changed into apartment blocks as the shop has been changed into a restaurant too. At hotel area has been added a car park, just next to the hotel. Meanwhile, in 1995 the village had a farmland and forest park but both have been disappeared and now a tennis and golf area have been built. The changes of village in 1995 and now have been a lot, in the north more houses have been built and actually a new street has been added due to development. ]]> 2020-08-25 02:22:45 UTC https://padlet.com/myenglishpage/z1cyutgeic9w/wish/696380858 Inna https://padlet.com/myenglishpage/z1cyutgeic9w/wish/696380964 The maps depict significant changes which have taken place in the village of Ryemouth between 1995 and the present day.
Overall, the diagram reveals several significant reconstructions of the village by replacing old or not useful building with new housing and the  transformation of landscape. First of all, two more houses have been added in both sides on the main road in the north-west side of the village. In addition to this, a couple new houses have been built in the one side of newly expanded road in the west. In the north-East nowadays, one can be find golf and tennis courts which used to be farmland and forest park in 1995. New transformation has also taken place in the shops and fish market in 1995. These days the shops have been changed into restaurants complex and fish market replaced by new apartments in the seaside. In 1995, fishing port used for different marine purposes ,whereas nowadays there is no port which has been demolished. However, some objects have a negligible changes or no changes at all.

Overall, it is an obvious fact that major changes have been made to the entire village. First of all, the farmland has been removed to make room for a golf course and some tennis facilities. At the same time, that place on which a golf course and tennis facilities have been built is now a forest park. 
Furthermore, a car park has been added next to the hotel. The fishing port has disappeared completely. The fish market has been turned into apartments. On the other hand the cafe has not been replaced yet. All in all, one can say that Ryemouth has changed dramatically ever since 1995.

To begin with, to the north of right the farmland has been replaced by golf course and the forest park under the golf course was turned into a tennis court. Also directly opposite the golf course and tennis court were built more housing facilities and a road has been constructed in the same area.

The two given maps reveal the variety of changes which have been made to the city of Mumbai from 1845 to today. Overall, even though  some islands or place names remain, the main transformation was that the seven separate islands were merged into one large island.
Looking at the map of Mumbai now, we can see there are many amenities which have been built since 1845. It is obvious that many railway lines and major roads which run through the city center have been constructed in order to connect between facilities and the residential areas. Particularly, four hospitals, two hotels and a church have been constructed throughout city.
Before 1845, Mumbai’s territory was divided into seven islands which were a rural area with no connection or bridges. However, the same island’s names are still the same today even its location still remain. For example, Coloba is located in the south part of the city whereas Worli and Parel are located in the north part of Mumbai. ]]> 2021-04-02 05:10:11 UTC https://padlet.com/myenglishpage/z1cyutgeic9w/wish/1377519678 Masao https://padlet.com/myenglishpage/z1cyutgeic9w/wish/1397906489 The line graph illustrates the total amount of time spent on telephone calls in the UK from 1995 to 2002.

To begin with, the figures in 1998 and 1999 showed a fairly similar trend. However, In 1995, the total time on local calls was nearly 70 billion minutes, and then it has risen gradually to 90 billion minutes in 1999, after that it declined steadily to 70 billion again in 2002.  Interestingly, National and international calls soared until 2000, after which it flattened out over the rest of period. Furthermore, national and international calls rose steadily from below 40 billion minutes in 1995 to a peak of just over 60 billion in 2002. For mobile calls, it increased wildly from around 3 billion in 1995 to around 45 billion in 2002. You can also see the mobile phone usage nearly doubled from 22 billion minutes to 40 billion from 200 to 2001.  Finally, total time for all calls increased gradually from 1995 to 1999, after this time they rosed more rapidly in 2000, then maintained an upward trend.]]> 2021-04-08 22:34:35 UTC https://padlet.com/myenglishpage/z1cyutgeic9w/wish/1397906489 https://padlet.com/myenglishpage/z1cyutgeic9w/wish/1397908423 2021-04-08 22:35:58 UTC https://padlet.com/myenglishpage/z1cyutgeic9w/wish/1397908423 Masao https://padlet.com/myenglishpage/z1cyutgeic9w/wish/1431058306 The maps depict the remarkable changes that have been taken place in the town of Denham between 1986 and the present time. Generally, the most changes happened to the main street and its two sides.
In 1986, it can be seen that Danham had two extended pirces of farmland, but  these days in those areas have become desolate. In 1986, near the primary school used to be a house with a big garden, but this has turned into a retirement facility with no gardens. Moreover, there used to be several stores but now there are no more stores, only the post office still remains the same as before. Additionally, the bridge to cross the long river Stoke has also remained. Another noticebale change is that the town has a primary school, the houses and the post offices. All of these facilities have expanded in the area.

However, some other people disagree with this statement because they think that living alone gives people more freedom and happiness. In this essay, I will present both advantages and disadvantages of living with family together. 
It is undeniable that being together with family gives people more opportunities and chances to share things. For example, people can sharing house chores, paying bills and responsibilities and saving money. This point is very useful for young people who are studying or not working ful time they can receive support from family. Furhtermore, People who live with their parents might feel safer  because there are always someone behind them to take care of anything like unexpected situation or curcumstance. You can make mistakes but can also get support and guidance from older members to avoid mistakes again in future.
On the other hand,  others people believe that, living alone allows people to become more independent and free. This maybe true because young people need to learn how to survive and deal with problems by themselves in the real world. In addition, when they grow up, some of them need to make brave decisions such as to move to a new city or country for study and work, they can not depend on their family always. 
In summary, it can be believed that living with  parents have a lot of advantages, however, people who have to live alone can have the same opportunities. So the solution should be own decision for each of individual to decide what is better for their situation.
