The graph below shows the household recycling rates in
three different countries between 2005 and 2015.

Rephrased first Paragraph


The line graph illustrates the regional household recycling
rates in the UK, France and Germany from 2005 to 2015.
Second Paragraph- Overview
Overall, the recycling rates of the UK and Germany showed
a steady but significant rise over the period, while the
percentage of recycled waste in France experienced a slight
downward trend.
Third Paragraph: In 2005 the recycling rates of the UK and Germany
were nearly 35% and 20% respectively. Germany's rate increased
sharply throughout the period, exceeding France's rate in 2009 and
reaching almost 60% in the end of the period. In the meantime, the
percentage of recycled waste in the UK grew to 40% in 2007, and then
remained steady until 2009. During 2009-2011 it experienced a rapid
surge to more than 50% and continued with a gradual increase to 60%
in 2015.
Fourth Paragraph:
In early 2005 the recycling rate of France (50%) was
the highest among these three countries. However, it
dramatically declined to 30% in 2013. Then, there was
a growth of 10% in 2015, but France's recycling rate
was the lowest in the end of the Period.
The graph below shows the daily consumption of three spreads per
person from 1981 to 2007 in a country.

Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main


features, and make comparisons where relevant.
Write at least 150 words.
The graph below shows the daily consumption of three spreads
per person from 1981 to 2007 in a country.

The line graph illustrates the amount of three kinds of spreads


(margarine, butter, and low fat and reduced spreads) which were
consumed from 1981 to 2007. Units are measured in grams.
Overall, the consumption of margarine and butter
decreased over the period given, while for low fat and
reduced spreads rose. At the start of the period, butter
was the most popular spread. Margarine was the most
widely consumed in the middle of the period but, by
the end, low fat and reduced spreads was most
popular.
With regards to the amount of butter used, it began at
around 140 grams and then peaked at 160 grams in 1986
before falling dramatically to about 50 grams in the last
year. Likewise, approximately 90 grams of margarine
was eaten in the first year after which the figure
fluctuated slightly and dropped to a low of 40 grams in
2007.
On the other hand, the consumption of low fats
and reduced spreads only started in 1996 at about
10 grams. This figure, which reached a high of just
over 80 grams five years later, fell slightly in the
final years to approximately 70 grams in 2007.
