Writing Task 1 - Cambridge IELTS 1 - Test 1

Question

 

The charts reveal information of a survey of grown-ups education. The first chart shows why thay want to study. The pie chart show people's opinions about how the prices of each course should be shared.

It is clearly be seen that most grown-ups study because they are interested in the subjects or to gain qualifications.

According to the first chart, the two dominant reasons are interest in subject and to gain qualifications which take 40 and 38 percent respectively, it is about twice as much as the reason that people think education is useful for their current job (22 percent) or those want to improve prospects of promotion and enjoy studying (both take 20 percent). The least chances that people think of when considering studying are to be possible to change jobs (twelve percent) and to make friends (9 percent).

Move to the pie chart, there are 40 percent of people want to pay for their tuition fee. Alittle bit less, 35 percent of them think their bossed shoul do that. The leftovers (25 percent) suggest that the money is paid by taxpayer.

Answer 1

The charts reveal the information of a survey of grown-ups education. The first chart shows why people want to study. The pie chart shows people's opinions about how the prices tuition of each course should be shared.

It is clearly be seen that most grown-ups study because they are interested in the subjects or to gain qualifications. (Lacking of an overview of second chart)

According to the first chart, the two dominant reasons are interest in subject and to gain (not parallel) qualifications which take 40 and 38 percent respectively, it is about twice as much as the reason that people think education is useful for their current job (22 percent) or those want to improve prospects of promotion and enjoy studying (both take 20 percent). The least chances that people think of when considering studying are to be possible to change jobs (twelve [I think you should use number (12) to make it consistent through the essay] percent) and to make friends (9 percent).

Move to the pie chart, there are 40 percent of people want to pay for their tuition fee. Alittle bit less, 35 percent of them think their bossed boss shoul do that. The leftovers (25 percent) suggest that the money is paid by taxpayer. (I think you might mistake the overall idea of the pie chart. It means how tuition fee of a course should be shared. For example, if the course costs $100, then the student will pay $40, his/her employer will pay $35 and the remaining amount will be subsidised by the government through taxes. In fact, your paragrapgh assumes that their boss or other taxpayers would pay 100% of the tuition fee).

Comments

Thanks a lot, especially about the pie chart idea. Actually it was very tough for me to get that idea in the first place.

Answer 2

These graphs illustrate the six main purposes of adult’s educational choices and the percentage of budget sharing of each course in three different sections.

As we can see from the bar chart, the percentage of adults deciding to study for their own interest in the subject and to gain qualifications account for 40% and 38% respectively. While the first 2 reasons are reported to take up the highest proportion, the purposes of adults studying to change jobs and meeting people make up for the lowest percentage. On the other hand, adults’ enrolment on education for the remained 3 reasons account for 62% in total, namely helpful for current job (22%), to gain promotion (20%) and to take pleasure in studying (20%).

It is also obvious that the pie chart indicate the total percentage of how every single course’s fee should be shared by three main sections. The highest proportion belongs to Individual (40%), followed by the gradual decrease in the sections of Employer (35%) and Taxpayer (25%).
