The bar chart on the right shows figures of annual coffee and meat consumption. Write a report for a university tutor describing the information shown.
SAMPLE ANSWER
The bar chart compares the amounts of coffee and meat consumed every year in Norway, France, Germany, the USA, Russia, China and Japan.
It can be clearly seen that the lowest rates of coffee consumption are recorded in China and Japan (2 and 3 kg per person respectively). The next three countries have higher rates, consumption of coffee in the USA totals 4 kg per person, while France and Russia have equal consumption rates of 5 kg per person. The highest numbers belong to Germany and Norway, at 7 and 9 kg per person respectively.
Meat consumption numbers are much higher in all countries; the highest numbers are recorded in the USA (122 kg per person) and the lowest in Japan. Meat consumption in Russia (45) and China (47) is similar to that of Japan (42). Three other countries have much higher numbers, starting with Norway (60) and progressing through France (72) to Germany which consumes about twice as much as Japan (87 kg per person).
Overall, the report shows that the Asian countries have similar consumption numbers for both coffee and meat.
