LINE CHART
The graph below shows the differences in wheat exports over three different areas.
Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information shown below. Write
at least 150 words.
ANSWER:
The line graph compares three regions in terms of exports of wheat between 1985 and
1990.
Overall, the three regions experienced different trends in the time period. While the
wheat export in Canada and European countries rose with some fluctuations, the export
in Australia fell over time.
As the graph shows, Australia's wheat export figure started at 15 million tons in 1985
followed by a small increase to around 16 million tons in 1986. Then, it declined
steadily until it fell to just over 10 million tons in 1990. Regarding Canada's exports, in
1985 they shipped approximately 19 million tons of wheat. This figure fell to about 17
million in 1986, but then their exports experienced considerable growth to 25 million
tons in 1988. Afterward, the figure plunged to below 15 million in 1989, but then
subsequently rose to just under 20 million in 1990.
