The table shows the percentage of the Australian population who went to a ~~watching movies at~~ cinema and their average number of visits from 1996 to 2000. ~~whereas~~ The line graph contains similar information, in particular ~~compares~~ the annual cinema visits by of four different age groups ~~in Australia~~. The age groups are 14-24, 25-35, 35-49, and 50 and over.

Overall the data in the table of average visits and the data in the graph showing visits by age group do not agree with each other. The first year, 1996 looks reasonable, with an average of 10.3, and a corresponding range for the age groups from 10, (for the 25-35 age group) to 15 (for the 14-24 age group. )

However for 1997 and later years, these two different presentations of the same data make no sense. The values simply conflict with each other. This discrepancy is the worst for the year 1999, where the table indicates the smallest attendance frequency of 8.2, but the numbers on the graph show an attendance near the maximum values, more than double what is in the table, from 17 to 22. The average in the table should be about 20, not 8.2.

Overall, there was an increase in the number of people attending the cinemas and a decrease in the average annual visits throughout the period. All age group follows a similar trend with the 14 - 24 years old being the fondest of cinemas.

At the start of the period, 62% came to the cinema. This figure soon went up to 72% in 1998 but after that, it remained stable till 2000. In 1996, the average yearly visits started at 10.3% but increased slightly to 11.1% in 1998. In the next 3 years, this percentage reduced and ended up with 8.3% at the end of the period.

~~As for the line chart,~~ (There is no such thing as a "line chart") the number of visits by all age groups in 1996 was between 10 to 15 times a year, with the group of young people at the top. ~~In the following year, 4 groups had a similar fluctuate trend from 10 to 25 times throughout the 4-year period.~~

You need to use your critical thinking skills to discover that this practice test is flawed and and gives conflicting data. Be assured that the people who make the tasks given in a real IELTS test will not deceive you like this one did.
