Topic: the bar graph below shows basic information about uses of leisure time among different age groups.

Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main information and making comparisons.


My essay:

The bar graph illustrates the amount of time spent on various types of leisure activities of three distinct age groups. There are intellectual activities (computer use and reading) and physical activities (sport and exercise). The measurement unit is minutes per weekend day.

Overall, people aged 20 to 65 years old allocate more time for leisure pursuits than the younger and the elder groups (13-19 and 20-65 years old respectively) and most of their free time is for playing sports and doing exercise. People at the age of 66 and more spend most of their leisure time reading while the youngest group uses computers for a large portion of their free time.

In terms of physical activities, adults aged between 20 and 65 years old spend exactly 120 minutes per weekend day on sport and exercise which is six times higher than that of the older group(20 minutes) and two times higher than teenagers (60 minutes).

In terms of cognitive leisure, Reading consumes more free time than computer usage (60 and 30 minutes respectively) in the eldest group (66+ years old) while the opposite happens in teenagers (13-19 years old), they spend 75 minutes using the computer and 5 minutes reading. Adults aged from 20 to 65 years old give equal time for both reading and computer usage (30 minutes).
