SAMPLE ANSWER
The given table compares the population growth, average birth per woman and life expectancy at birth, among high, middle and low-income countries in 2002 and 2004.
The population growth in the low-income countries was the highest at 2.0% in 2000, which however, declined by 0.2% after two years. It still remained the highest among all. The other two groups of countries had almost similar population growth in both the given years.
The average Birth Rate was also the highest in the low-income countries at 3.9 and 3.7 in 2002 and 2004 respectively. It was the lowest in the high-income group at 1.7 in both the given years, whereas in the middle-income group it was just over 2 in 2002 and 2004.
The life expectancy at birth was the highest in high-income group at 78 years in 2002. This increased further to 78.8 in 2004. Life expectancy increased from 69.1 to 70 years in middle-income countries and from 58.1 to 58.8 in low-income countries.
Overall, life expectancy increased in all groups of countries, whereas the other two indicators either decreased or remained constant.
