Question

The graph below shows the consumption of Fish and some different kinds of meat in a European country between 1979 and 2004.Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.The line graph illustrates data of an European country's demand in fish and varied kinds of meat in the period from 1979 to 2004.Totally, all figures experienced downwarding in the amount of fish, beef, and lamb consumed, except for chicken.In 1979, the number of the comsumption of beef started to decrease from 210 to 125 in the short time before reaching a peak of 240 in 1984 and then countinued to fluctuate on declining trend, finally catched the number 100 in 2004.Although chicken and lamb had a similar number of need in 1979, around 150, there was an opposite moverment between two kinds of meat. While chicken kept rising through the years, the amount lamb kept falling until 2004 and dropped in 60 when chicken reach the number 250.Despite slightly declining through the period, there was not a big change in fish demand, concretely at 60 and finish at 40 in the end of the period.160 words.

The highlighted words are incorrect, mostly wrong vocabulary, but also spelling, missing words ( articles or prepositions) and grammatical errors.

The word "demand" does not describe what is shown on the graph. Demand is what they desired; consumption is what they ate. If a food is in high demand, it will have a high price.

Avoid the word "figure" in Task 1. In this context, a figure is a diagram, table or illustration inserted into the text. Figures are numbered as "Figure 1., Figure 2...")

The line graph illustrates (wrong word) data of an European country's demand (wrong word) in fish and varied (wrong word) kinds of meat in the period from 1979 to 2004.

Totally, all figures experienced downwarding in the amount of fish, beef, and lamb consumed, except for chicken.

In 1979, the number of the comsumption of beef started to decrease from 210 to 125 in the short time before reaching a peak of 240 in 1984 and then countinued to fluctuate on declining trend, finally catched the number 100 in 2004.

Although chicken and lamb had a similar number of need in 1979, around 150, there was an opposite moverment between two kinds of meat. While chicken kept rising (?) through the years, the amount lamb kept falling until 2004 and dropped in 60 when chicken reach the number 250.

Despite slightly declining through the period, there was not a big change in fish demand, concretely at 60 and finish at 40 in the end of the period.

Model paragraph #1: (General description)

The line graph compares the amounts of beef, chicken, lamb and fish that people in a European country ate on a weekly basis during a specific 25-year period, 1979 to 2004. The units of measure are grams (of meat) per person per week.

Model paragraph #2 (Main observations)

There was more variation in the amounts of meat (chicken, beef, or lamb) that people ate than in the amount of fish that they ate. People tended to eat the same amount of fish per week, but it decreased slightly over the period, from a little over 50 grams in 1979, to a bit under that value in 2004.

Model for paragraphs with detailed observations:

The values for chicken and lamb consumption started out in 1979 as being nearly the same, (150 grams) but their data had opposite trends; the data for chicken showed an increase and lamb a decrease. The ending values were substantially different: 250 (chicken) and about 60 (lamb). Except for the first two or three years, people ate more chicken than lamb.

Like lamb, the trend line for beef consumption was negative (decreasing). Starting at about 220 in 1979, the values peaked and plateaued from 1980 to 1987 at about 230, and then declined to a final value of about 100 at the end of the period. The amount of beef and chicken consumed per week was about the same during the three-year period from 1988 to 1991 at about 200 grams.

The total amount of meat and fish eaten per week was 20% lower at the end of the period than at the beginning (570 versus 450 grams). The proportion of chicken nearly doubled, from 36% (220/570) in 1979 to over 75% (250/450) in 2004.
