Farming Business Govt. Job Research Banking Teaching
Work
The graph illustrates the choice of profession by educated people in our country. Six categories of jobs are
mentioned in the graph; these are: farming, business, government job, research work, banking and teaching.
In the graph, we can see that government job has occupied the first position. 60% of the educated people prefer
government job as their profession. In the field of educated people’s choice of profession, banking has
occupied the second position. 40% of the educated people want to pursue their career in banking. Teaching is
in the third position. The percentage of people who choose teaching as their profession is 30%. After teaching,
comes the turn of business engaging 20% of the educated people. Undoubtedly, agriculture is the backbone
of our economy. But unfortunately, 10% of the educated people show their interest in farming. If educated
people are engaged more in farming, our country will go forward in this particular sector. At last, comes
research work which attracts only 5% of the educated people.
While government jobs are highly desired, it is important to note that they cannot guarantee employment for
every educated person. Therefore, it is timely to encourage educated individuals to consider farming and
business as viable career options, which can significantly contribute to the growth of our country's agricultural
sector and economy.

The graph clearly depicts the number of Internet users in towns and villages from 2010 to 2015. It is evident
that the number of Internet users in both towns and villages is rising rapidly and consistently.
In 2010, the first year of the survey period, we observe that the number of internet users in towns was 10% of
the city dwellers, which rose to 14% in the next year. On the other hand, the number of internet users in
villages was only 4% of the total villagers in 2010, increasing to 5% in 2011. In 2012, internet users rose from
14% to 20% in towns and from 5% to 8% in villages. The graph indicates a rapid increase in internet users in
both towns and villages. By 2013, internet users in towns and villages reached 27% and 13%, respectively. In
2014, the number of internet users rose to 35%, up from 27% the previous year. Although the percentage of
internet users increased rapidly from 4% to 20% over five years, it remained lower compared to the 35% of
users in towns. In 2015, internet users in towns and villages increased to 45% and 25%, respectively.
Overall, the graph shows that internet usage is increasing rapidly both in towns and villages owing to its great
utility in the modern globalized world.

The pie chart represents the results of a recent survey on Bangladesh's export sectors generating foreign
currency. Export sectors are vital engines of economic growth, contributing significantly to national income
and employment. They enhance foreign exchange reserves, promote industrial development, and strengthen
international trade relations. By diversifying exports across various sectors like garments, manpower,
agricultural products etc., our country can achieve sustainable economic development and resilience against
global economic fluctuations.
The garment sector emerges as the largest contributor, accounting for 54% of total foreign currency earnings.
Following closely behind is the manpower sector, which contributes 30% to the total. By exporting tea, fish,
leather etc. the country earns 8% of the total foreign currency. The rest 8% of foreign currency is gained by
exporting other things.
After analyzing the chart, it can be said that garments and manpower are two important sectors that help
Bangladesh earn over 80% of its foreign currency. The country should sustain this percentage by giving
maximum support to these sectors.

Science Humanities Business Madrasah Technical
Studies Education

The graph illustrating the distribution of students admitted to a public university from different academic areas last
year presents a clear view of the predominant fields of study chosen by these students. The vertical axis represents
the percentage of students, while the horizontal axis lists the academic areas: Science, Humanities, Business
Studies, Madrasah, and Technical Education.
Science dominates the chart with 45% of the students, almost half of the total admissions. This indicates a strong
preference or perhaps better preparation and opportunities in Science, reflecting the high demand for the science-
related education and careers. Humanities follow closely with 40%, showing a nearly equal interest as science
among the students. This significant percentage highlights the value placed on humanities education and its role in
the academic ecosystem. Business Studies account for 8% of the admissions, suggesting a moderate interest in this
field. This smaller percentage could mean that business programs are either more competitive or that fewer
students are interested in studying this subject. Madrasah, with 4%, shows a niche interest, representing students
who pursue religious or spiritual studies. This specific focus attracts a smaller yet dedicated group of students.
Lastly, Technical Education comprises 3% of the admissions, indicating a lesser emphasis compared to other fields.
This could reflect either a limited number of technical programmes available or fewer students choosing this path.
Overall, the graph reveals that Science and Humanities are the leading areas of study, together making up 85% of
the student body, while Business Studies, Madrasah and Technical Education are less prominent but still crucial in
their respective capacities. The poor percentage of the students from Madrasah and Technical areas suggests the
lack of quality education over there that can be overcome through some concerted efforts.

The graph exhibits the positive and negative uses of internet according to the different age groups of the users. The
graph's columns have been represented by black and grey colours indicating the positive and negative uses
respectively.
The children aging from 3 to 12 years, have a little tendency to use internet from a negative view point but they
enjoy Internet positively. 50% of 3-12-year old children use internet positively and only 20% use it from a negative
view. On the other hand, we have seen an opposite picture in adolescents who are 13 to 19 years old compared to
the children. According to the graph, 80% of adolescents are addicted to using Internet negatively whereas 30% of
adolescents are in favour of positive use of internet. Those who belong to 20-35 years age group, have almost the
same view on the use of internet. The percentage of persons belonging to 20-35 years old, who are used to using
internet positively is 60% and that of those who are accustomed to using internet negativity is 70%. The last two
columns indicate some persons whose age is 36-60 years. However, 80% of people who are 36-60 years old, use
internet from positive perspective and about 55% belonging to the same age, use internet from negative perspective.
Older adults thus perceive a higher a higher benefit from internet use compared to negative experiences.
To get benefit from Internet, people of all ages should use it from positive perspective.

The graph illustrates the percentage of the users of social networking sites in mobile phone. The survey period
ranges from 2020 to 2023. The graph covering these four years shows that the percentage of the networking sites
users is rising rapidly and consistently.
In 2020, the first year of the survey period, it is found that the percentage of social networking sites users in mobile
phone was 10%. The following year, 2021, saw a slight increase of 5%, reaching the percentage to 15%. By 2022,
the upward trend continued and social site users' percentage became 25% which was 10% more than the previous
year. The most remarkable growth occurred in 2023 when the percentage of social site users surged to 37.5%. The
graph highlights a consistent year-over-year growth. This steady and significant growth over the four years
highlights a clear and rapid increase in the use or acceptance of social sites among mobile phone users. Moreover,
the trend suggests that more people are turning to mobile phone for using social networking sites. The continuous
rise in the users also points out the growing importance of social media platforms.
In brief, the graph shows that the tendency of using social networking sites in the mobile phones is sustainably
upward due to its great utility in the modern and globalized world.

The graph depicts a comparative study of the number of internet users from the year 2012 to 2018. It is evident
from the graph that the number of internet users kept rising rapidly during the mentioned years.
In 2012, the first year of the survey period, 1.5 lakh people used the internet. Within a year, this number remarkably
rose to 3 lakh. It went up to 3.5 lakh in 2014. The following year, the number of the internet users rose to 4.25
lakh, which was 75 thousand more than the previous year. The graph shows that in the next three years the number
of the internet users continuously raised. Every year 50 thousand users added to the existing number. In 2016, it
became 5.5 lakh, and it went up to 6 lakh in 2017. Ultimately, the number rose to 6.5 lakh in the next year 2018.
However, the graph shows that the tendency of using the Internet is gradually increasing in compliance with the
demand of the modern age. This is badly required in view of the demand of the present age to keep pace with the
other countries of the world.

The given graph shows the engagement of child labour in different sectors of 'X' country from 2005 to 2016. In the
graph, the data shown is from three different sectors, namely Agriculture, Industry and Service. The most striking
feature of the graph is that with the passage of time, child labour has been shifted from Agriculture to Industry and
Service.
It is closely observed that the highest number of child labour was engaged in agriculture sector in 2005 and the
percentage of this number was 62%. In the same year, 15 and 23 percent of child labour were employed in industry
and service sectors respectively. On the other hands, in the year 2012, 45% child labour worked in agriculture
sector, 36% and 19% of them worked in-particular in service and industry sectors. The graph also gives the
information that in the year 2016, 40% child labours were engaged in agriculture sector. In service and industry
sectors, 31% and 29% of them were employed respectively.
However, on the basis of the information given in graph from 2005 to 2016, it may be concluded that the child
labours engaged in agriculture, industry and service sectors of 'X' country are on average 49%, 21% and 30%
respectively. Overall, the graph portrays how the economic activities of the very country have been shifting from
agriculture to industry.

A survey has been carried out on the number of people living below the poverty line covering a period of 15 years
from 1995 to 2010.
In the graph, it is noticed that 35% of the people were living below the poverty line in 1995. The situation kept on
deteriorating until 2003, when the percentage dramatically rose to 45%. But the situation went on improving later
and the percentage of people living below the poverty line significantly came down to 30% in 2007 and 28% in
2010 indicating a positive picture of the country’s economy. A careful evaluation of the graph indicates an alarming
situation from 1995 to 2003, when the picture of poverty was really dreadful. But afterwards, the situation improved
and the poverty level came down.
A substantial analysis of the graph reveals the fact that the overall economic condition of the country was improving
though there was a negative scenario at the beginning.

• Using English as the 2nd language – 58%
English being an international language is very important in the globalized world. It occupies a significant position
in the field of higher education and information technology. A survey conducted on the usage of English in different
fields has been shown through this graph. It demonstrates how individuals all across the world use English for a
variety of purposes in addition to native speakers.
80% of information in the world's computers have been written in English. 33% of the people of the world, as the
graph shows, use English as the first language. 30% of organizations in the world use English as their official
language. 50% of the people all over the world use English for other purposes. At last, it is seen that 58% of the
people of the world use English as the 2nd language.
Thus, it is clear that English plays a unique role in the world. In higher education, English being widely used, 80%
of the total information have been stored in English. At the same time, a great number of people in the world use
English as the first and second languages.
08. The graph below shows the literacy rate of Bangladesh from 1995 to 2010. Describe the graph in at least
80 words. You should highlight the information and report the main features given in the graph.

1995 2000 2001 2003 2010
Here the graph shows the literacy rate of Bangladesh over a period of 16 years from 1995 to 2010 through vertical
columns. It also shows the fluctuations of rise and fall of literacy rate.
According to the information of the graph in 1995, the literacy rate of the country was 38.10%. In five years it
increased greatly and in 2000, the rate stood at 56%. But sadly after 2000, the rate began to decrease. As such in
2001, the rate came down to 47.9%. Sticking to this decreasing tendency, the rate stood at 43.10% in 2003. Then
the rate of literacy again began to rise and a great increase is seen in the rate over the period between 2003 and
2010. The year 2010 shows its literacy rate to be 56.80%. Thus, it is clear that literacy rate in Bangladesh having
a fluctuating tendency sometimes increases and sometimes decreases.
In fact, literacy rate is connected with some important socio-economic factors such as poverty, people’s
consciousness about the importance of education, government’s sincere attempt and good monitoring system, etc.
