Model essay:

The chart and table show reading habits of people in three age groups, 16-17, 18-24 and 24-29. The bar chart, titled "What type of book have you read?", shows the percentage of people who had read a book of a specific format (audio book, print book and e-book). The table shows for each age group the percentage of people who had read a book, and average number of books read in 2012.

Print format had the highest readership by about a factor of 4. Eighty-five percent of the people in the youngest group (age 16-17) had read a printed book. This compares with 21% reading an e-book, and only 15% listening to an audio book. The values for the next age group, 18-24, were less for all formats - 73%, 15% and 12% respectively. And the values for the oldest age group (25-29) were the lowest of the three groups for printed books (71%), but in between those of the younger groups for e-books (18%) and audio books (14%).

The table shows that the average number of books read in 2014 were very similar for all three groups, 12 for the youngest, and 11 for the other two. Ninety percent of the people in the youngest group had read a book in 2014. The values were about 10% less for the others, 79% for those aged 18-24 and 81% for the oldest group.
