SAMPLE ANSWER
The graph illustrates how much electricity is needed in England during typical days in autumn and spring, while the pie chart depicts how it is distributed in an average English household.
Overall, it is abundantly obvious that electricity is in greater demand in autumn than it is in spring, and it reaches its peak and its lowest in different hours depending on the seasons. Regardless of the seasons, people make the greatest use of electricity when heating rooms and water.
In autumn, electricity is least used at 7 o’clock and is most used at 22 o’clock, with 30,000 and about 50,000 units respectively. In comparison, electricity reaches its lowest later than in spring at 9 o’clock, with 12,000 units, and its highest way earlier at 14 o’clock, with slightly more than 20,000 units.
Heating rooms and water consumes the most electricity, accounting for 51.5% of the total consumption. Ovens, kettles, and washing machines make up 17.5%, while lighting, TV, and radio constitute 16%, followed by 15% from vacuum cleaners, food mixers, and electric tools.
