Ielts writing Task 1 + 2

Vocabulary note
Note the way we use prepositions with numbers and dates:
1998 2000
45% 20%
·
In 2000 the number fell 
to
 20%.
·
In 2000 the number fell 
by
25%.
·
The number fell/dropped 
from 
45% 
in 1998 
to 
20% 
in 2010.
·
The number fell/dropped 
from 
45% 
to 
20% between 1995 and 1997.

verb + adverb
, or 
adjective + noun
, 
to avoid
repeating the same phrases and to add extra meaning
:
·
There was 
a significant increase/rise

The number of X

·
There was an increase

·
There was a drop 
of
10% in the number of male students who studied
abroad.
