Example 1:

Title: The graph below details the amount of water bottles consumed in three different cities between 1970 and 2020. Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.

Answer: The graph provides information regarding water bottle consumption from 1970 to 2020 in Tokyo, London, and Dubai. Overall, both Tokyo’s and London’s consumption of water bottles peaked in 2000, whereas Dubai experienced a much later climax in 2010.

At the start of the period, London and Tokyo used more water bottles than Dubai with around 20 million for the latter and roughly 13 million for the former. Both cities experienced a relatively stable upward trend of consumption from 1970 to 2000, with London hitting a high of slightly under 35 million and Tokyo topping more than 25 million. Thereafter, London witnessed a steady decline of water bottle usage, with the graph projecting London to finish the period at approximately 30 million. Whereas, Tokyo‘s plummeted rapidly after their peak in 2000, for a anticipated conclusion of slightly over 10 million water bottles consumed in 2020.

On the other hand, Dubai began the period with the lowest amount of water bottles consumed with 10 million. Subsequently, it rose gradually until 1980 before the number exploded reaching a height of over 40 million in 2010. After which, it began a slight downward trend, with the graph predicting a finish of around 40 million.
