The line graph shows visits to and from the UK from 1979 to 1999, and the bar graph shows
the most popular countries visited by UK residents in 1999 
The line graph illustrates the number of visitors in millions from the UK who went 
abroad and those that came to the UK between 1979 and 1999, while the bar chart 
shows which countries were the most popular for UK residents to visit in 1999. 
Overall, it can be seen that visits to and from the UK increased, and that France was 
the most popular country to go to. 
To begin, the number of visits abroad by UK residents was higher than for those that 
came to the UK, and this remained so throughout the period. The figures started at a 
similar amount, around 10 million, but visits abroad increased significantly to over 50 
million, whereas the number of overseas residents rose steadily to reach just under 
30 million. 
By far the most popular countries to visit in 1999 were France at approximately 11 
million visitors, followed by Spain at 9 million. The USA, Greece, and Turkey were far 
less popular at around 4, 3 and 2 million visitors respectively.

Sample Answer 32
The illustrations show how chocolate is produced 
The diagram explains the process for the making of chocolate. There are a total of ten 
stages in the process, beginning with the growing of the pods on the cacao trees and 
culminating in the production of the chocolate. 
To begin, the cocoa comes from the cacao tree, which is grown in the South 
American and African continents and the country of Indonesia. Once the pods are 
ripe and red, they are harvested and the white cocoa beans are removed. Following a 
period of fermentation, they are then laid out on a large tray so they can dry under 
the sun. Next, they are placed into large sacks and delivered to the factory. They are 
then roasted at a temperature of 350 degrees, after which the beans are crushed and 
separated from their outer shell. In the final stage, this inner part that is left is 
pressed and the chocolate is produced.
