Question

Hello, everyone. Can you review my paper and give some feedback for it be better?

The given bar chart is a diagrammatic illustration of the proportion of men, women and children consuming five servings of fruit and vegetables during a week in the period from 2001 and 2008 in UK.

Overall, one notable feature seem to be that the highest percentage of all people eating fruit and vegetables was women whereas children accounted for at least at all periods.

With regards to the amount of women consumed, it began at around 21% (2001) and gained substantially to over 30% (2006). Then, it had a marginal change which was about 27% in the final years.

In term of men and children eating fruit and vegetables, the rate moved steadily in the first three years (about 17% and 12% respectively). From this point, the proportion of men had a significant change and reached a pick of about 27% in 2006 while children climbed to a new pick after a year ( 25%). In the last two years, both had decreased sharply about 2%-3%.

The ~~given~~ bar chart is a diagrammatic illustration (That is not a good expression.) of the proportion of men, women and children consuming five servings of fruit and vegetables during a week (incorrect) in the period from 2001 and 2008 (incorrect expression) in the UK.

Overall, one notable feature is ~~seem to be~~ that the highest percentage of all people eating fruit and vegetables was women whereas children accounted for at (incorrect) least at all periods. (You wrote that there was only one period, 2008-2008. You must be consistent.)

With regards to the amount of women consumed, (You wrote that people ate women. That is not correct. They ate fruits and vegetables.) it began at around 21% (wrong value - it is between 22 and 23%) (2001) and gained substantially to over 30% (incorrect. 90% is over 30% and so is 45%. This is not accurate.) (2006). Then, it had a marginal change which was about 27% in the final years. (I do not understand this .)

In term (wrong form) of men and children eating fruit and vegetables, the rate (wrong word. There are no rates on this chart. ) moved steadily (The did not change.) in the first three years (about 17% and 12% (They did not go up or down by 17 and 12 percent..) respectively). From this point, the proportion of men had a significant change and reached a pick (wrong word) of about 27% in 2006 while children climbed to a new pick (wrong word) after a year ( 25%). In the last two years, both had decreased ~~sharply~~ by about 2%-3%.

Example essay. This is too long for a good IELTS Task 1, but it will give you ideas for vocabulary and phrasing.

The time series grouped bar chart compares the percentages of men, women and children in the UK who had a daily intake of five servings of fruits and vegetables. Data points are shown for each year between 2001 and 2008.

Overall, the percentages were consistently highest for women, and lowest for children. The percentages generally showed an increasing trend between 2001 and 2006 with a leveling off and decrease between 2007 and 2008. The differences in percentages between the groups was smaller in the last year than in the first year.

In detail, the percentages for women went up steadily every year from a low in 2001 at 22-23% to a high in 2006 at 35%. In this same time span, the percentages for men and children were constant for the first three years, at about 17% for men and 13% for children. Both increased in each of the next three years, so that in 2006, the percentages had risen to 27% and 21%. The maximum value for the children occurred one year later at 26%. In the final year, 2008, the values for women had decreased from the highest point by 5% to end at 30%, compared to a decrease of 2% for men, and 3% for children. The latter two ended up at 26% and 24% respectively.
