SAMPLE ANSWER
The table provides information about car production in three different countries over a period of 6 years, starting from 2003.
It is clear that Thailand produced the largest number of cars over the period shown. Also, while the number of cars manufactured in Thailand and Argentina increased, the opposite was true for Australia.
In 2003, 735,852 cars were produced in Thailand, significantly more than in the Australia, with just over 450,000 cars. The figure for Argentina, however, was only about a third of the figure for Thailand and half that of Australia, at 235,088.
Over the following six years, Thailand still remained first rank in car manufacturing among the three countries. Their car production soared to 1,162,356 cars in 2005 before dropping back down to approximately one million 2009. Likewise, the number of cars manufactured in Argentina increased throughout the period to 466,089 cars, which made them become the second biggest manufacturer of cars in the last year. The figure for Australia, however, experienced a downward trend over the period, decreasing to just under 250,000 cars by the end of the period.
