International Visitors to New Zeland:
transport used during visit.

The chart gives information on the means


of transport used by overseas visitors to
travel in New Zealand. Nearly 70 percent
of visitors travel around in New Zealand
by car, which is the commonest mode of
transport. The second and third most
common ways of travelling in the country
are by plane or coach, and just over 30
percent of visitors use each of these. By
comparison, only 20 percent of visitors use
trains. The least popular method of travel
is boat, which six perce of travelers use.
Overall, the chart shows that although cars
are the most popular means of transport,
more people use public transport than
private transport.

2 International Visitors to New Zeland:


reason for visit

The chart gives information about people’s


reasons for visiting New Zealand. The
most popular reason for visiting New
Zealand is 47% for holiday. Twenty nine
percent of visitors come to New Zealand
for visiting friends and relatives. Other
reasons are 13 % for business trip and 11
% for others. Overall, the chart shows that
mostly the visitors of New Zealand are
tourists who spend their time there for
holiday.

3 Percentage of passenger kilometres Percentage of Passenger Kilometers by


by different modes of transport in Shanghai Different Modes of Transport in
Shanghai

The table predicts changes in the types of


transport used in Shanghai between 1996
and 2020. The figures show that in 1996
the most popular form of transport was
public bus, accounting for 39% of
passenger kilometers. This was followed
by bicycles with 27% whereas cars and
scooters were used less, representing only
15% and 12% of passenger travel
respectively. It is expected that in 2020 the
use of cars will increase dramatically and
account for over half of all distance
travelled (52%). Bus journeys, for
example, will only represent 22% of
distances travelled, while bicycle trips will
drop to as little as 3%, similar to the figure
for walking. In addition, trains will
probably account for 13% of passenger
kilometers, while the use of all other
means of transport will decrease.
Predictably, walking made up the smallest
percentage. Overall, the table predicts a
massive increase in the use of cars by
2020, at the expense of other forms of
transport.
