Task 1

Question

The graph below shows the proportion of four different materials that were recycled from 1982 to 2010 in a particular country.

Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

Write at least 150 words.

Answer

The chart shows the recycling rates of four materials: paper and cardboard, glass containers, aluminium cans, and plastics from 1982 to 2010.

Paper and cardboard were recycled the most. In 1982, about 65% were recycled. The number went up to 80% in 1994, then slowly went down to around 70% in 2010.

Glass containers started at about 50%, then dropped a little, and later increased again. By 2010, around 60% were recycled.

Aluminium cans were recycled the least at first, starting at around 5% in 1986. But over time, the rate increased and reached almost 45% in 2010.

Plastics had the lowest recycling rate. It started in 1990 at about 2%, and only grew to around 8% by 2010.

In short, paper and cardboard were always the most recycled, while plastics were the least. Aluminium cans and glass containers increased over time.

Learning English at school is often seen as more important than learning local languages. If these are not taught, many are at risk of dying out.
