The graph gives information about the consumption of fast food (in grams per week), in the UK from 1970 to 1990.

The bar graph represents the weekly expenditure on three categories of fast food according to income groups in britain while the line graph illustrates the total consumption of these fast foods in the time period of 20 years between 1970-1990.

Overall, it can be seen that hamburger is the favorite fast food between high and average income groups and that its consumption has gotten a sharp rise over the time span of 20 years.

At first, the bar graph shows the expenditure comparison among hamburgers, fish & chips and pizza. Hamburger is the highly consumed food in high and average income groups where it costs 40 and 32 pence per week respectively. Contrary, in low income group, more money is spent on fish and chips around 17% which corresponds to the money spent on them in high income group. Pizza expenditure has a gradual falling trend from high to low income groups which is 20%, 12% and 6% respectively.

On the other hand, the line graph depicts that fish and chips were the highly consumed fast food in 1970, consumption 300 gms but with the passage of time, its consumption showed a gradual descending trend till 1990 when it reached around 200gms. While hamburger and pizza showed increasing trend, in which hamburger showed an abrupt rise and reached at 500 gms till 1990. Pizza consumption took a steep rise and could just reach at 220 gms which is the same as the most lowest level of fish and chips consumption.

IELTS Line Graph - Australian Fast Food Consumption

by Ala
(Oxford United Kingdom )


The graph illustrates, the changes in Consumption of fast food by the Australian Teenagers, including three types of food, Pizza, Fish and chips and Hamburgers, between 1975 and 200 . A period time of 25 year.

In 1975, there was an increase in each of Pizza and Hamburgers except the Fish and Chips went down. In 1980, It's still the same as before, for the Pizza and Hamburgers expect Fish and Chips still dropped down slowly as which shows in the graph. From 1985 to 1990 the Fish and Chips decline for about 30 per-cent and Pizza and Hamburgers still rise From 20 per-cent to 40 per-cent for Pizza and 57 per-cent for Hamburgers which demonstrates in the graph below. From 1995 to 2000 as we see the Pizza and Hamburgers still steady remains as the same number of times eaten per year. I think if the people didn't make any solution for this problem may Fish and Chips well not go make again.

1. Lack a clear overview
2. The language used in IELTS writing should be formal, meaning no contraction ( it's -> it is)

3. "I think if the people didn't make any solution for this problem may Fish and Chips well not go make again." This sentence is incomprehensible. Moreover, personal pronounce should be avoided in IELTS writing .

4. Missed key features, like which type of fast food was the most popular, least popular, and how they changed over the years.

Furthermore, there is a line graph that indicates the number of meals per year were eaten by people in fast food restaurant compared by sit-down restaurant in the same periods.

In the beginning of this period, the family cost domination was spent for home cooking meals (10%), although, the different condition occurred in 2000, while the food restaurant allocation reached the peak and dominate the budget, for about one out two parts. Through this term, the consumption of restaurant foods continued to rose steadily about 5-15% for each next years.

I found some grammatical corrections required and the description could have been more linguistically analytical.

the pie chart illustrates the food budget spendon restraurants and home cooked meals in percentage during aspan of 40 years from 1970 to 20000.

while the line graph compares the number of meals eaten either in fast food eataries or sitdown restaurants during the same span of period from 1970 to 20000.

in the pie chart during 1970, the budget spend on restaurants meals used to be 10% rose drastically to 50% by year2000 .though during 1980 there was a increase of only 5% in food budget on restaurants meals,it increased by more than double in the following 10 years reaching 35% . In this chart we can see that home cooked meals are becoming less favourable over restaurants tough there is hike in budget allowance.

in the line graph , during 1970 both the fastfood and sitdown restaurants meals enjoyed same number of meals around 20 per year.till 1980 both these eateries showed slight gain around 30 meals per year.By 1990 the trend changed , the fast food gained more popularity n sky rocketed in its numbers reaching 80 meals per year.the sit down restaurants also faired well in numbers but could reach 50 meals per year.
