BAR CHART
SAMPLE 1:
The chart below shows the amount of leisure time enjoyed by men and women
of different employment status.
Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information shown
below.
You should write at least 150 words in 20 minutes for this task.
ANSWER:
The bar chart
compares
the amount of free
time per week that males and
females of five categories of employment status had
between 1998 and 1999
.
It is clear that
men
enjoyed
more hours of leisure time
per week than women
in three out of five categories.
However
,
only figures for
women
are shown in
two categories,
namely
employed part-time and housewives.
Regarding
the full-time employed,
obviously men
had slightly more leisure
time than
women, with
approximately
45
hours of free time per week,
compared to around
38 hours for women.
Obviously
,
unemployed and retired
people of both genders
enjoyed the most hours of leisure time
.
Moreover
, the
figures for
retired males and females
were exactly the same as
those for the
unemployed, at around 85 and 78 hours of free time per week,
respectively
.

Housewives enjoyed 50 hours of spare time,
a little more than
part-time
working women who had just over 40 leisure hours each week.
No
data is
given for
men in either of these categories.
