Đề bài mẫu: The graph below gives information about the percentage of the population in four Asian
countries living in cities from 1970 to 2020, with predictions for 2030 and 2040.
Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features and making comparisons
where relevant.
The line chart shows how urban residency has changed in four Asian countries from 1970 to
2040. Overall, it is clear that urban living will increase in all countries, especially in Malaysia and the
Philippines. By 2040, Malaysia will have the highest percentage of people living in cities.
In 1970, the Philippines and Malaysia had similar urban residency rates, around 31% and 30%
respectively. Thailand and Indonesia had lower rates, with Thailand at 19% and Indonesia at 12%. Over
the next 20 years, Malaysia’s rate went up and down, surpassing the Philippines around 40% before
rapidly increasing in 1990. It is projected to reach over 80% by 2040. On the other hand, the Philippines
saw a moderate decline after 1980 but is expected to recover and reach above 50% by 2040.
Indonesia has seen significant growth in urban residency, surpassing Thailand in 2000 (28%) and
the Philippines in 2010 (42%). It is projected to reach 55%, the second-highest among all countries.
Finally, Thailand has experienced a gradual increase and is currently around 30%. It is expected to rise to
over 40% in the next 17 years. (186 words)
Đề bài mẫu: The chart below shows the expenditure of two countries on consumer goods in 2010.
Write at least 150 words. You may spend 20 minutes to complete the task.
The bar chart provides information on five different areas of expenditure in the UK and France in
2010.
Relatively more money was spent by the UK on cars, books and cameras than France. On the
former category, the UK spent just over 450,000 pounds, whereas France used about 55,000 pounds
less. For books, the expenditure gap widened, but both countries expended less than they did on cars:
approximately 400,000 and 300,000 pounds for the UK and France, respectively. The margin in spending
was the largest for cameras, with the figure for France being more than two times smaller (150,000
pounds) than that for the UK (slightly over 350,000 pounds).
However, France’s expense on computers and perfume was higher than the UK’s. About
380,000 pounds was spent by France on computers as opposed to 350,000 pounds by the UK, but the
amounts for perfume were a lot lower with the respective figures of 200,000 and just under 150,000
pounds.
Overall, the UK spent more money on cars, books and cameras, whereas France did so on the
other two categories: computers and perfume. It is also apparent that both these nations used the most
money on automobiles, and the biggest difference in expenditure was recorded in cameras. (205 words)
Đề bài mẫu: The pie chart gives information on the proportion of carbohydrates, protein and fat in
three different diets.
Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information shown below. Make comparisons
where relevant. You should write at least 150 words.
The pie charts compare the proportion of three main macronutrients in separate diets, namely
an average diet, a healthy diet and a healthy diet for sport.
In general, carbohydrates are the highest nutritional ingredient overall, whereas the rate of fat
is the lowest among given diets. It is noticeable that a healthy diet for sports consumes the highest
amount of carbs but the lowest amount of fat compared to the two remaining diets.
Sport players select a healthy diet with 60% of carbohydrates. The percentages of
carbohydrates in a healthy diet and an average diet are relatively lower, at 50% and 40% respectively.
By contrast, fat consumption remains lowest in all healthy diets for people playing sports (15%), while
the figures for an average diet and a healthy diet are equal (20%).
In terms of protein, average diet eaters require the highest level, at 40%. This is 10% higher than
the proportion of protein in a healthy diet, and 15% more than the proportion in a healthy diet for sport.
Đề bài mẫu: The table with the percentage of students in six different departments in 2011.
Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons
where relevant. Write at least 150 words.
The given table illustrates data on different aspects of undergraduates who took six different
majors at an Australian University in 2011.
Overall, while the social science departments attracted the majority of female students, there
were a large number of undergraduates who preferred learning IT and engineering at university.
Specifically, most females were in favor of humanities majors (72%) and the educational sector
(68%). While there were slightly more than half of this population studied Science and Physics (52% and
56%, respectively), they seemed less appealing to technological majors such as information technology
and engineering which accounted for roughly 15%.
It is also clear that the proportion of non-native English speakers and overseas undergraduates
took the leading position in science and technology majors. In particular, approximately half of students
whose first language was not English enrolled in the IT department, which was followed by science
(45%) and engineering (42%) majors. Whereas the physics department experienced 38% of enrolment of
this group, humanities and pedagogy attracted nearly 15% of undergraduates.
The same pattern can be observed in the percentage of students born in other foreign countries.
The physics and IT departments had the highest percentage of enrolment (56%), and engineering held
second place with 48%. Other departments were listed in decreasing order as follows: science,
education, and humanities, with 31%, 23%, and 20% respectively.
Đề bài mẫu: The diagram below shows how the Australian Bureau of Meteorology collects up-to-the-
minute information on the weather in order to produce reliable forecasts.
Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information shown below. Write at least 150
words.
The figure illustrates the process used by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology to forecast the
weather.
There are four stages in the process, beginning with the collection of information about the
weather. This information is then analyzed, prepared for presentation, and finally broadcast to the
public.
Looking at the first and second stages of the process, there are three ways of collecting weather
data and three ways of analyzing it. Firstly, incoming information can be received by satellite and
presented for analysis as a satellite photo. The same data can also be passed to a radar station and
presented on a radar screen or synoptic chart. Secondly, incoming information may be collected directly
by radar and analyzed on a radar screen or synoptic chart. Finally, drifting buoys also receive data which
can be shown on a synoptic chart.
At the third stage of the process, the weather broadcast is prepared on computers. Finally, it is
delivered to the public on television, on the radio, or as a recorded telephone announcement. (170

Đề bài mẫu: The diagram shows how electricity is generated by a hydroelectric dam.
Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information shown below. Write at least 150
words.
The diagram illustrates the production of power through the use of a hydroelectric dam.
The process begins with water in a reservoir and ends with the transmission of power via long-
distance power lines.
In order to generate hydroelectricity, the first step is to collect water in a reservoir. When power
generations begins the water passes through an intake in the bottom of the dam and then enters a long
tunnel called a penstock. On the other hand, when power is not being produced the intake is blocked by
a large gate that prevents the flow of water. However, when the intake is opened, the water flows down
the penstock and the pressure it creates is used to spin a turbine, which is connected to a generator in a
place referred to as the powerhouse. At the same time, the water that has gone through the turbine
flows out into the river below the dam. Finally, the generator in the powerhouse is connected to power
lines which are used to transport the electricity over long distances. (175 words)
