The line chart shows the total percentage of income earned by

the top 1% of the population in 7 different countries from 1975 to


2015.
Overall, wealth distribution became more unequal over time,
particularly in the United States and to a lesser extent in
Germany, Canada and the UK. Distributions were more equal in
the other nations though they increased overall.
In terms of the countries with the greatest increases, the United
States rose steadily from 8% in 1975 to 9% by 1986 before a
precipitous climb to 13% over the next several years and a surge
with occasional fluctuations over the remainder of the period to
finish at around 18%. The rises for Germany, the UK, and Canada
followed similar though slightly lower trajectories with only
the former beginning high (11%) and all 3 nations finishing with
comparable dips to near 13% in 2015.
For the nations with more marginal rises, there were similar
declines to near 2% for France, Japan, and Italy for the first
decade in question prior to steady rises in the 1980s. In 1990,
France and Japan fell again to around 3%, though all 3 countries
recovered and continued to increase consistently until the end of
the period, with final figures just below 5%.
The bar chart details the number of tourists visiting Country X
from various parts of the world and the table delineates the
income of different businesses in the nation in 2007 and 2008.
Overall, tourism from all regions of the world declined, though
less noticeably when coming from the main sources of tourists:
China, Japan, and Australia. All forms of revenue also fell, with
shops and tour services accounting for the majority of revenue
by 2008.
In 2007, there were over 200,000 tourists from Europe and the US
and Canada, with the North American nations slightly higher. By
2008, both figures had dropped dramatically to 100,000 for the
former and approximately 250,000 for the latter. In contrast, the
data points for China and Japan began the period much higher
(nearly 300,000) and fell less significantly (200,000). Similarly,
Australian tourists numbered 275,000 in 2007 and had declined
marginally to 250,000 by the following year.
In terms of income in Country X, in 2019 hotels and resorts
earned 3.5 million dollars, considerably more than restaurants,
bars, and souvenir shops (2.4), transportation and travel agents
(1.3), and tour guides, small vendors and other services (1.4). By
2008, hotels and resorts had plunged to just $.5 million, dining
options had halved to $1.2 million, and transportation had
reduced to $.4 million. The most marginal decline was for tour
services ($1.1 million)

The line chart details the unemployment rate and number of


people leaving Ireland from 1988 to 2008.
Overall, the figures followed a roughly complementary pattern
except for an extended period in the 1990s. Both data sets
declined overall though individuals leaving the country ended
with an upwards trend.
In 1988, 17% of individuals were unemployed in Ireland and a
slightly lower 15.5% decided to leave the country. Starting in
1990, the rates diverged with between 12% and 13% being
unemployed up until 1996 and far fewer proportionally moving
abroad (between 14% and 8%).
After 1996, a steep drop in terms of unemployment (down to a
low of 5% by 2000) recreated a more symmetrical pattern.
Individuals leaving the island nation was broadly stable around
7% before a sharp uptick over the final four years of the period to
end at 13%. The rise for unemployment figures was more gradual
and was finally registered at 6%.
The pie charts detail the rationales for immigration to and
emigration from the UK in 2007.
Overall, immigration was mainly related to various kinds of work,
study, and accompanying someone, with no reasons stated and
other less typical. Emigration was similarly focused on work (non-
definite work being more prevalent) but formal study was a less
likely reason and less defined reasons were more common.
In terms of study and work, 30% of immigrants came to the UK for
definite jobs, just 1% above the number emigrating for the same
purpose. The disparity regarding looking for work was greater
(12% for immigration and 22% for emigration) and even more
significant concerning formal study (26% immigrating and just 4%
emigrating for school).
There was relative alignment for other reasons with 11%
immigrating with another purpose and 14% emigrating,
comparable to the figures for accompanying another person
(15% and 13%, respectively). Finally, only 6% of individuals
immigrate to the United Kingdom without a reason, while three
times this figure emigrate lacking a stated purpose.
The diagram shows how to make jam from the fruit.
The flowchart provides a detailed description of how a type of jam
is made.
Overall, the jam-making process is a relatively straightforward
one, using simple ingredients and involving eight main steps
from fresh strawberries being prepared to finished jam being
served in family meals.
The process commences when four kilograms of ripe strawberries
are washed in order to remove dirt strains before being put into a
large bowl and manually crushed into small pieces with the help
of a piece of equipment called a masher. The resulting mass is
poured into a pot and simmered in 5-10 minutes, together with a
quarter cup of sugar.
Once the sugar has dissolved, the temperature is raised highly, at
which point four further cups of sugar can now be added. After
ten minutes of high-temperature cooking, a condensed mixture
of fruits and sugar is formed and subsequently spooned into
glass-made jars. These jars of jam are left open to cool down
during one hour before being tightly closed with lids, ready to
become food for families.

The process shows the steps and equipment involved in


producing and shipping pineapple for later retail.
Overall, pineapple production involves both man-made and
natural processes beginning with the ripening of the fruit, its
preparation and division into different sizes before final
processing. Smaller pineapples are used for juice, medium sized
ones are canned and the largest ones are sold whole.
The processing of all pineapple products begins in tropical
climates (28 °C to 30 °C) during which pineapples are harvested
at various sizes including 26cm, 28cm and 30cm (2kg) in total
height. The pineapples are then cleaned and divided into three
groups with the smallest and medium sized ones both having
their tops sliced off and the rinds peeled. The smaller ones are
then sent through a juice extractor, while the larger ones are
sliced and canned. In contrast, the 30cm pineapples are simply
washed, coated in wax, placed in crates and then shipped on
freights overseas.

The process shows the steps and equipment involved in


producing electrical power by using water.
Overall, the process goes through multiple steps, from rainwater
being accumulated in a reservoir, through the various processing
steps, to hydroelectric power being generated for different
purposes.
The process begins when seawater is heated by the sun and
evaporates to form small clouds in the sky. Next, they merge into
a storm cloud, which then rains over the mountain. This
rainwater is gathered in the reservoir behind a dam. The
following steps involve a pipe which connects the reservoir to a
turbine as well as a pump, and is controlled using a valve.
Once the valve is opened, water flows into the turbine and rotates
it to produce electrical current, following which it is pumped back
into the reservoir. After this, the electricity produced by the
turbine is transferred to the transformer station through high
voltage cables. The last stage is when the electrical power is
delivered to domestic and industrial consumers, as well as
educational and medical facilities.

The graphics illustrate the layout of Liverton docks as it is now,


compared to how it used to look in 1980.
Overall, the area has transformed from an actively functional port
zone to a modern one, most notably with a new access across
the river being installed and several educational, residential and
leisure facilities being newly introduced.
Looking first at the northern part, two old warehouses in 1980 are
now converted into an education center and a children’s
playground, together with a sail club in between. These
developments have resulted in the demolition of two old cranes
located alternately with the warehouses.
As for the remaining area, another crane and warehouse on the
other riverside have also been removed to create space for a
hotel and a block of apartments with a parking lot adjacent to it.
Along the south riverbank, there is an addition of a novel
pedestrian path. This river walk is now in conjunction with a
newly built bridge and a flood barrier spanning the river.
Eventually, a ship museum in the form of a large ship floating on
the river has been established while multiple ships in the original
structures have been decommissioned.
The diagrams illustrate how a new underground platform and
reinforcements were added to the Toronto Go Train Station during
and following construction.
Overall, in the redesign of the Go train station, the pedestrian
walkway under the tracks was removed and replaced with two
new levels: one for pedestrian traffic and one for shopping. In
addition, the station's supports were partially removed and
rebuilt.
Before construction, the station had two levels. The upper was
where trains arrived and departed and the lower was a
pedestrian walkway passing under the train. A large supporting
pillar centred below the tracks, passed through the level below
and was buried deep in the ground beneath it.
During construction, the bottom concourse was dug out and
lowered to a new depth exposing the base of the buried support
column. A temporary support system was built while a section of
the main support post was removed. It was then replaced and
reinforced to include a new floor level between the upper and
lower decks. The lowest level provided space for shops and the
one above it remained a walkway for pedestrians to pass under
the tracks. The upper track level was visibly unchanged.
