The provided line graph illustrates the acid level in the mouth which is created by

consuming sweet foods specifically sugar and honey and possibility of tooth
decay because of this acid level. As is presented in the line-graph, the higher the
acid level the lower the pH value and a pH level less than 5.5 is detrimental for
the tooth and causes the tooth decay.
The given graph shows that the initial pH level of our mouth is 7 which begin to
fall after consuming sweet foods. When we eat sweet item like cane sugar, the
pH level drops to 3.5 in 5 minutes and remain in danger level (below pH level
5.5) for more than 30 minutes. Consuming fruit sugar drops the pH level nearly to
4 and remains in danger level for about 20 minutes. And finally when we eat
honey, the pH level fall below 5 and it remains under risk level for about 13
minutes. As the low pH level means higher acidity and causes tooth decay, cane
sugar among the mentioned three food items is the most harmful for our tooth.
Tips for answering this Writing Task 1 Question:
1. Please note that the question asks you to "describe the information presented
in the graph and also discuss the implications for dental health". So you have to

mention which food items creates more acid level for longer time and are
comparatively injurious for teeth. You must classify which food items are
comparatively safe as well. First compare the three food items in terms of the
acid level they create in mouth and how long this acid level remains in danger
level. Then suggest which food items among cane sugar, fruit sugar and honey is
comparatively safe and which item/ items are not.
2. Notice the following trends from the given line graphs:
a) Higher the acid level, the lower the pH level.
b) pH level below 5.5 is dangerous for the tooth as the tooth decay occurs
below 5.5 pH level.
c) Honey is comparatively safer than other two food items as it decreases the
pH level of the mouth slowly and the acid level goes to the safe level very quickly.
On the other hand after consuming cane sugar the pH level falls under danger
level quickly and remains there for the longest time among the three food items.
3. To answer this question first mention the acid / pH level which occurs the tooth
decay and the level when it is safe. Now take the three given food items and
mention them individually: how longer it takes to reach the pH level of mouth
below 5.5 after consuming this food item and then how longer this level remains
under 5.5. Finally suggest which food items is comparatively safe and which is
not.
Summary of the Line Graph:
After consuming different sweet food items, the acid level of our mouth
increases. The higher acid level is presented by the lower pH value. When the
pH value gets under 5.5, the tooth decay occurs. Among the given three food
items i.e. cane sugar, fruit sugar and honey, the third item (honey) is
comparatively safer for our dental health. This is because after consuming all the
honey the pH level remains under danger level for about 12 minutes compared to
the 20 minutes for the fruit sugar and 31 minutes for cane sugar. This also
indicates that the cane sugar is more likely to damage our tooth among the
provided three sweet food items.

The graph shows Underground Station Passenger Numbers in

London.
Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make
comparisons where relevant.

Model Answer 1:
The given line graph shows data on the number of underground station
passengers of London city from 6:00 am till 10:00 pm. As is observed from the
graph, the highest number of people use the underground stations of London at
8:00 am and 6:00 pm.
At 6:00 am around 100 underground passengers can be found at the stations
and this number increases seamlessly until 8:00 am when the passengers'
number reaches to 400. After 8:00 am the number declines steadily until 10:00
am when it reaches at around 180. The number keeps fluctuating until 4:00 pm
and on an average 200 passengers can be observed during this period. After
4:00 pm the passenger number increases and reaches at 380 at around 6:00 pm.
After 6:00 pm, the passenger number decreases with some fluctuations
until10:00 pm.
In summary, the highest number of passengers of London underground stations

can be found in the stations during the office going and office leaving times in a
day.
The graph below compares the changes in the birth rates of China and the USA
between 1920 and 2000.
Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make
comparisons where relevant.

Write at least 150 words.

The graph demonstrated some striking similarities between the

Chinese and the US birth rates from 1920 to 2000. Both countries
experienced considerable fluctuations in the similar period with some
lows during the 1940s and some highs during the 1930s.
The birth rates in China rose from 10% in 1920 to 15% in 1935. Later,
the figure plunged to a low of 5% in the 1940s and was followed by an
exponential growth to the peak of 20% in 1950. Next, the fertility rate
dropped sharply to 8% in the following five years. Finally, the figure
declined gradually to 3% during the latter half of the century.
Meanwhile, the US had similar birth rate of 12% to that of China in
1920. The figure fluctuated in between 12% and 14% during 1920s
and 1930s until it hit a low of 4% in 1945. Five years later, the birth
rate reached a peak at 15% in 1950 but it made a steady fall to the
final figure of around 7% in 2000.

This report covers the requirements of the task. The main

Gross Domestic Product in the UK

Model Answer
The bar chart illustrates the gross domestic product generated from the IT and
Service Industry in the UK from 1992 to 2000. It is measured in percentages.
Overall, it can be seen that both increased as a percentage of GDP, but IT
remained at a higher rate throughout this time.
At the beginning of the period, in 1992, the Service Industry accounted for 4 per
cent of GDP, whereas IT exceeded this, at just over 6 per cent. Over the next four
years, the levels became more similar, with both components standing between 6
and just over 8 per cent. IT was still higher overall, though it dropped slightly from
1994 to 1996.

However, over the following four years, the patterns of the two components were
noticeably different. The percentage of GDP from IT increased quite sharply to 12
in 1998 and then nearly 15 in 2000, while the Service Industry stayed nearly the
same, increasing to only 8 per cent.
At the end of the period, the percentage of GDP from IT was almost twice that of
the Service Industry.

Writing Task 1: hot dog essay band 9

The bar chart shows the number of hot dogs and buns eaten in 15 minutes by the
winners of Nathans Hot Dog Eating Contest in Brooklyn, USA between 1980
and 2010.
It is noticeable that the number of hot dogs and buns eaten by winners of the
contest increased dramatically over the period shown. The majority of winners
were American or Japanese, and only one woman had ever won the contest.
Americans dominated the contest from 1980 to 1996, and the winning number of
hot dogs and buns consumed rose from only 8 to around 21 during that time.
1983 and 1984 were notable exceptions to the trend for American winners. In
1983 a Mexican won the contest after eating 19.5 hot dogs, almost double the
amount that any previous winner had eaten, and 1984 saw the only female
winner, Birgit Felden from Germany.
A Japanese contestant, Takeru Kobayashi, reigned as hot dog eating
championfor six years from 2001 to 2006. Kobayashis winning totals of around
50 hot dogs were roughly double the amount that any previous winner had
managed. However, the current champion, American Joey Chestnut, took hot dog
eating to new heights in 2009 when he consumed an incredible 68 hot dogs and
buns in the allotted 15 minutes.
