The pie charts show information about the proportion of children learning

to play a musical instrument in the years 1996 and 2016, while the accompanying
bar chart demonstrates children's choice of musical instruments in the same years.

More than half of children surveyed (56%) were not involved in learning to
play a musical instrument in 1996. This figure, however, had more than halved by
2016 thanks to a growing interest in this activity, with the percentage of those
attending music lessons accounting for a hefty 76% of the total.

As far as the instrument choice is concerned, in four out of seven


categories, the proportions declined. Piano, being opted for by the largest
percentage of children in 1996, at 30%, saw a 5% decline after two decades.
While the figures for violin and acoustic guitar categories fell by around 4% to
just under 15 and around 2 percent, the 'other' instruments' decrease in percentage
was minimal: only by 1% to reach roughly 2.5%.

The remaining instruments in question, by contrast, showed different


patterns of change. Keyboard, after an 8% growth, reached dominance in 2016
with 30%. Electric guitar was another category with a rise from about 13% to
virtually 17%, but the proportion of children playing at least 1 instrument
remained constant, at more or less 12%.

Overall, the pie charts make it clear that the interest in learning how to play
a musical instrument grew substantially over the period, with the overwhelming
majority of children being engaged in this in 2016. As regards the bar chart, piano
and keyboard were the most popular instruments in 1996 and 2016 respectively,
in contrast to 'other' instruments and the acoustic guitar.
The image shows how electricity is generated in a hydro-electric power station.
Generally speaking, the process starts with the sun evaporating water in the sea
and culminates with distributing electricity to end-users. There are about eight
distinct steps involved in this process, requiring both the involvement of nature
and the use of machinery.

The initial group of stages takes place with the aid of nature. Firstly, the sun rays
cause the water in the sea to evaporate and form clouds. These then create rain,
the droplets of which fall into a reservoir, thereby filling it. The reservoir itself, is
an area of water surrounded by a dam, a man-made wall to control water, and a
mountain.

The second set of steps are heavily machine-driven. The reservoir has a valve that
both opens and closes to control the outflow of water. If this device opens, it
allows the water to pass through a turbine that rotates to generate electricity. The
used water, meanwhile, is sent back into the reservoir with the use of a pump.
Once electricity has been generated, it is transferred via transmission towers with
high-voltage cables to a transformer station, which converts electricity into a
needed voltage. Finally, the electricity is sent to various consumers, such as
hospitals, school and factories through underground cables.
The line graph describes how computer sales at three computer stores in Ho Chi
Minh City changed from 2000 to 2005.

Overall, the sales of computers at the Tech Guys and Computer Plus generally
grew, though to a varying degree. In contrast, there was a notable drop in
computer sales at Laptop World.

Focusing on the stores which saw their sales grow, in 2000, 4,000 computers were
sold at Computer Plus, and this figure had more than doubled two years later,
reaching a high of 10,000. It, however, dropped to its initial level in 2003. This
decline continued until the next year with a record low number of computers
being sold, at around 3,000, before sales bounced back to 6,000 in the final year.
The figure for the Tech Guys was relatively stable at 5,000 in the first two years,
after which it gradually went up to a chart high of 14,000 in 2005.

In contrast, the number of computers sold at Laptop World went down


substantially. Standing at 8,000 initially, computer sales at this store dropped by
2,000 within the first year. Although sales remained at this level until 2003, they
declined by another 2,000 in the following year, at which point they remained
stable until the end of the period.
The bar chart provides information on the proportion of three types of businesses
with social media presence from 2012 to 2016.

Starting with small businesses, their percentage almost doubled over the period in
question. Accounting for about 27% in 2012, the figure for small-sized businesses
grew moderately to around 35%, before falling to 30% in 2015. After this,
however, this number climbed markedly to just under 50% in the final year.

As regards medium businesses, they showed a similar pattern of change to small


businesses, albeit to a lower extent. After a jump from approximately a third to
just under a half over the first three years covered, the proportion of medium
businesses plummeted to 30% and then jumped to virtually 53% in 2016.

As far as large business entities are concerned, an overwhelming majority of them


had a social media presence over the period. Making up roughly the same
proportion of 78% between 2012 and 2014, the percentage of this type of business
fell noticeably to around 54% in 2015 only to hit a peak of 80% in the last year.
Overall, the
percentage
of all three
types of
businesses
having a
social
media
presence
increased,
with large
enterprises
dominating
by a wide
margin
each year. It
is also worth noting that 2015 was the year when all types of businesses witnessed
a decline in terms of using social media for business purposes.
The table compares demographic and socio-economic information about three US
states, namely California, Utah, and Florida.

Overall, Utah has the highest percentage of people aged under 18 of all three
states while it is Florida that has the biggest proportion of senior citizens aged
60+. Of particular note is the relationship between income and poverty levels: the
higher the average income per person, the higher the percentage of people living
below poverty the line.

Regarding demographic information, people aged under 18 make up over a


quarter in Utah (28%) while this figure is roughly the same for California and
Florida, at 17% and 16% respectively. The 60+ age group in Utah, however,
accounts for a mere 8%, which is virtually four times as small as that of Florida
(23%). In contrast, the figure for Californians aged over 60 is at a moderate 13%.
The bar graph compares how much milk was exported from Italy, Russia,
and Poland over a five-year period (2008-2012). Units are measured in millions of
tons.

Overall, milk export grew in all three countries, though to a varying degree.
Of particular note is the figure for Russia, which was by far the largest in all given
years, while the reverse was true for Poland.

In detail, starting at just under 25 million tons in 2008, the figure for milk
export from Russia grew steadily to an all-time high of 40 million tons 2 years
later. However, this figure plummeted to around 28 million tons in 2012, marking
about a 4-million-ton increase from the initial point.

In contrast, the amount of milk exported from Poland initially dropped,


going from around 12 million tons in 2008 to a chart-low of 6 million tons in
2010, but it had more than doubled by the end of the period (14 million tons).

Unlike in those countries, milk export from Italy rose steadily. About 17
million tons of milk was exported in 2008, and this figure went up gradually,
reaching 21 million.
The bar graph compares how many foreign students from 6 countries
studied in
Australia in
2019 and
2020.

Overall,
Chinese
students made up the overwhelming majority in both years while it was
Malaysian students whose number was in the minority. Furthermore, the number
of students from China, Brazil, and Malaysia fell whereas that of India, Nepal,
and Vietnam grew.

Focusing on the countries which made up a large number of foreign students in


Australia first, the figure for Chinese students was by far the biggest, with around
182,000 in 2019, though this number fell to roughly 168,000 the following year.
The number of Indian students came a second distant, with about 92,000 in 2019,
thereafter which it grew by around 16,000 students. Similarly, standing at over
46,000 initially, the number of Nepalese students rose marginally to more than
50,000.

In contrast, students from the remaining countries accounted for considerably


smaller numbers. The number of Vietnamese students was around 22,000, which
grew by a mere 1,000 the next year. The figures for Brazilian and Malaysian
students, however, both dropped by roughly 2,000 students, falling to
approximately 21,000 and 20,000 respectively.
The pie charts provide a breakdown of volunteers across six different organization
types in 2008 and 2014.

Three out of the six given categories witnessed a rise in the share of volunteers.
The percentage of volunteers for environmental causes rose from 21 to 29
percent. Meanwhile, the largest growth was observed in the sport category, where
the percentage increased by 10% to reach a quarter in 2014. The healthcare
industry, however, had the lowest figures of 7 and 8% in 2008 and 2014
respectively.

By contrast, the figures for the other sectors declined. A 7-percent drop was
recorded in the education realm, accounting for 17% in 2014. At the same time,
the art and ‘others’ categories dropped by an identical 6%, from 18 to 12 percent
and 15 to 9 percent respectively.
In general, the proportion of volunteers in the environment, sport and healthcare
categories studied increased between 2008 and 2014, while that of them in the
education, art and other sectors showed the reverse. Although the largest share of
those engaged in volunteering was registered in the education and environment
categories in 2008 and 2014 respectively, the lowest percentage was noted in
healthcare in each year.
The pie charts provide a breakdown of water use for five different purposes in the
province of Sydney in Australia in 1997 and 2007.

Only two sectors saw an increase in the percentage of water used. While in the
service industry water usage almost doubled from 13% in 1997 to a quarter in
2007, in the domestic use category it grew marginally by a mere 2% to 21% in the
latter year.

By contrast, the figures for the other industries declined. Despite being the
dominant water consumer in both years, food industry witnessed a 7% fall to 41%
in 2007. Meanwhile, in the manufacturing and building categories, the
percentage decreased by a lesser extent over the decade, from 15 to 11 percent
and from 5 to 2 percent respectively.

Overall, only in the service and household use categories, the proportion of water
consumed rose over the decade, whereas in the food, manufacturing and building
industries it showed the reverse. Food industry was the largest water consumer in
both years, but the building industry used the least water. It's also worth noting
that the service sector showed the most significant change.
The line chart provides information about the number of patients served per week
in four different clinics of a hospital between 2010 and 2016.

Overall, the figures for patients in all types of clinics increased, with the
exception of those visiting for birth control. It is also worth noting that eye
patients showed the most significant change and overtook dominance from birth
control patients after about 2013.

The number of birth control patients was the highest in the first year, at just under
250. After growing to about 275 in 2012, this figure declined markedly to roughly
180, before recovering to the initial point in the final year.

The figure for those in need of an eye treatment started at approximately 125.
Over the next two years, this number witnessed a marginal rise to 150, after
which it surged to a chart high of 350, surpassing the quantity of birth control
patients in around 2013.

Dental and diabetic patients, meanwhile, experienced a growth in number, albeit


to varying degrees. Starting at 100, the former almost halved in 2012 but then
grew to about 130 in 2016. The latter, however, despite registering the lowest
quantity in 2010, at more or less 60, increased negligibly to 90 in 2014 and then
significantly to finish at roughly 170.
The table shows how water was used for domestic, industrial and agricultural
purposes in 6 countries in the year 2003.

Overall, in the majority of the countries studied, water was primarily used for
agricultural purpose while it was least used in the industry sector. As for the
domestic use of water, Australia and Canada ranked highest whereas countries
like the UK and China ranked lowest.

Regarding agricultural water use, the UK had by far the biggest figure with 90%,
closely followed by China and India, at 87% and 82% respectively. Japan
expended two-thirds of its water resource on agriculture in 2003, which was twice
as much as that of Australia. In contrast, agricultural use of water accounted for a
negligible 5% for Canada.

Household water consumption varied largely across countries in question. While


countries like Australia and Canada spent as much as two-thirds of their water for
household use, respective figures for Japan and India were 19% and 10%. In
contrast, the figures for the UK and China were minimal, at around 5%.

As for the industrial sector, Canada was reported to use most water, at a third,
which was roughly twice as much as that of Japan. However, the figures for the
remaining countries ranged from 8% to 2%, with Australia ranking last.
The process is of the production of cheese.

Overall, cheese production involves roughly 11 to 14 steps depending on whether


the traditional or modern method is used. It is also worth mentioning that the
process is highly machine-driven, requiring minimal human input.

Traditionally, raw milk is directly mixed with fermenting micro-organisms and an


enzyme known as rennet and placed inside a container to form curds and whey.
The modern method, however, requires three additional steps like pasteurization,
standardization, and filtration of raw milk before any additives are added.
Curdled, wheyed milk is then cut with a rake before it can be stirred and cooked.

Having been cooked, curds are drained of excess whey through a pipe. Drained
curds can then be milled through a milling device and salted over a conveyer belt.
The resulting substance is fresh cheese, which is sold as cottage and cream
cheese. To make ripened cheese, however, fresh cheese is poured into molds and
placed on another conveyer belt to be pressed into round shape. The act of
pressing also helps remove the redundant whey in cheese. Finally, cheese is
stacked on shelves to rest and ripen before it is delivered to stores.
The process describes the way the water cycle occurs.

Overall, the water cycle is a complex cyclical process involving several bodies of
water such as lakes, rivers and the sea as well as vegetation, and it is predicated
on the availability of sunlight.

The cycle starts with groundwater flowing into rives and lakes through porous
rocks, which allows water to travel underground unlike non porous rocks. Rivers
and lakes, in turn, water plants and trees, but most of their water flows into the
sea.

Subsequently, the sun evaporates water from all these bodies of water, turning it
into vapor. Ground vegetation also contributes to atmospheric vapor through the
process called transpiration.

The resulting vapor from ground water and plants forms clouds, which are pushed
to highlands with the help of wind. Once there, clouds cool further, forming rain
droplets. Finally, water returns to the ground in these droplets, completing the
cycle.
The pie chart shows a breakdown of bottled water consumption in different parts
of the world in 1999, while the accompanying bar graph provides information
about the percentage change in 2001.

According to the pie chart, just under a half (48%) of the global bottled water was
consumed in Western Europe in 1999. The next areas in the list were nowhere
close, with Australia, New Zealand and Latin America representing 15, 13 and 10
percent, respectively. While Middle East and Africa were responsible for an
identical 5% of the total bottled water consumption, Asia and the USA showed a
mere 2% each, which was the lowest proportion.

As regards percentage changes after 2 years, Asia led the way in this regard,
witnessing a positive change of 14% and was followed closely by New Zealand
and Latina America with around 2% less each. While the figures for Middle East,
Africa, Australia and the USA varied in the region of 9-10%, the proportional
change of Western Europe was the lowest, at approximately 2%.

Overall, Western Europe had by far the largest proportion of bottled water
consumption in 1999, whereas Asia and the USA recorded the lowest shares. The
bar chart shows that Asia changed the most in 2001 but Western Europe the least.
The maps
describe how the first floor of art has changed since 2005.
In 2005, the gallery had 4 exhibition rooms in total, 3 of which lined up on the
east side, while the other was to the left of the entrance. Directly facing the
entrance was a round reception counter, immediately before the stairs in the north
wing. A café could be in the northwest corner, with a gallery office to its south.

The gallery's ground floor has seen some major changes over the years. Although
the exhibition rooms along the east side remain intact, the fourth exhibition room
has been repurposed into a temporary exhibition and a children’s area. The
reception counter has been relocated to the center, and it now faces the newly
built entrance hall by the entrance. The café and gallery office have also been
converted into a gallery shop and an area for a vending machine. Finally,
accessibility of the gallery has greatly improved with the addition of a lift by the
stairs and a ramp for wheel chair to the left of the entrance.

Overall, the art gallery has been made more convenient with the addition of new
facilities such as a children’s area and a gallery shop, albeit at the expense of
some old features. Of particular note is the construction of a ramp for wheelchairs
and a lift, which has made the gallery more accessible to the disabled.
