The graph below shows how people buy music. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant. Percentage of total music sales by method Percentage 60 50 40 30 20 10 + Streams — Downloads +++ CDs purchased The graph illustrates trends in music buying habits between 2011 and 2018. It presents three different methods: streaming, downloading and buying CDs. Overall, both downloads and physical sales of music have steadily declined. The latter has slumped since 2011, while the downturn for the former began in 2014. However, there has been a sharp rise in people streaming music since 2013. In 2011, the majority of music sales were of CDs, at 55% of all sales. In contrast, streaming was not common at all at only 5%. Also, although people had started to download music, it only represented 35% of sales. As sales of CDs began to fall, downloads started to rise. They rose steadily and downloads overtook physical sales in mid-2013. During the same period, streaming doubled to 10% but then it started to grow more dramatically. Downloads peaked in 2014 at about 43% of sales but fell to 30% by 2018. This was slightly higher than physical sales, which shrank to 25%. Streaming, on the other hand, overtook both of them and accounted for just over 40% of sales in 2018. Number of people at a London underground station Model answer The graph shows the fluctuation in the number of people at an underground station over a one-day period (1). According to this data, there is a sharp increase in use between 6am and 8am, with 400 people using the station at 8 o'clock. After this. the numbers fall dramatically to less than 200 at 10 o'clock (2). However, between 11am and 3pm, the number of people rises and falls evenly, and this pattern includes a plateau around lunchtime of just under 300 people using the station. Numbers then decline and the smallest number of users, jus 100, is recorded at four in the afternoon (3). Between 4pm and 6pm, during the evening rush hour, numbers rise rapidly again, reaching a peak of 380 people at 6pm but from (4) 7pm numbers fall significantly. There is only a slight increase again just after 8pm, which tails off after 9pm. The graph shows that the station is most crowded in the early morning and evening rush-hour periods and least crowded mid-afternoon(5).
