1. The graph shows the fluctuation in the number of people at London underground station over the course of a day. According to the graph there is a sharp increase between 6 and 8am in the morning, with 400 people using the station at 8:00am. After this, the numbers fall dramatically to less than 200 at 10 o’clock.  Between 11:00am and 3:00pm, the number of people rises and falls evenly with a plateau around lunch time of just under 300 people using the station. Numbers then decline, with the lowest number being recorded at 4.00 in the afternoon. There is then a rapid rise between 4pm and 6pm during the evening rush hour with a peak of 380people at 6pm. After 7pm numbers fall significantly, with only a slight increase again just after 8pm, tailing off after 9pm. The graph shows that the station is most crowded in the early morning and early evening rush-hour periods.
2. The table shows two sets of related information: the relative cost, in pounds, of renting a property with one, two or three bedrooms in three different suburbs of London and an indication of the kind of annual salary you would need to be earning to rent in these areas.
Of the three areas mentioned, Notting hills is the most expensive with weekly rents starting at $375 (salary approximately $100000) and rising to $738 per week for a 3-bedroom property. To afford this, you would require a salary in the region of $200000 per annum. Alternatively, Fulham is the cheapest area shown with rents ranging from $215 per week for a one bedroom property to $600 per week for 3-bedroom property. To rent in this area, salaries need to be somewhere between $85000 and $170000 depending on the number of bedrooms required. For those able to pay in the middle price range for accommodation, Regent’s park might b a more suitable choice.
3. The number of Japanese students attending university has risen steadily since 1960. At that time, a very small percentage of women went to university and just under15 per cent of men received a university education, whereas nowadays these figures are significantly higher.
The increase in the number of women going to university has been fairly consistent although in the last ten years figures have risen steeply. Currently, it is estimated that 25 per cent of Japanese women receive a university education. That is still smaller percentage than the male figure.
The male patternshows more fluctuations particularly between 1970 and 1975, when figures rose by 15 per cent to a high of 40 per cent. This represents the greatest period of increase and it was followed by a fall in number between 1975 and 1980. Overall however, the two trends are similar and the recent rate of increase for men parallels that of women, leading to a present-day figure of just over 40 per cent.
4. The graphs give information about global birth rate and population size. They predict that the global population growth rate will began to decrease towards the middle of this century and will eventually stabilized at approximately 11 billion.
Since the mid 20th century, the world’s population has risen dramatically, from 2 billion to 7 billion. However, we should soon begin to see a fall in the population growth rate that will become more marked into the 22nd century.
These changes are largely due to the falling birth rate in developing countries. In 1950, the average number per family in developing countries was 6.2. Between 1950 and the present day, the figures has fallen significantly to 3.3 and it is predicted to decrease further to 2.1 children per family in 2050.
Birth rates have fallen in developed countries over the fast fifty years, from 2.8 children per family to 1.6. Projected figures for 2050 show a slight increase in the birth rate in these areas and predict, interestingly, the same birth rate for both developing countries and developed countries.
5. The graph shows the preferred leisure activities of Australian children aged 9-14. As might be expected, it is clear that sedentary pursuits are far more popular nowadays than active one.
Of the 10000 children that were interviewed, all the boys and girls stated that they enjoyed watching TV or videos in their spare time. In addition, the second most popular activity, attracting 80% of boys and 60% girls , was playing electronic and computer games while girls rated activities such as art and craft highly-just under 60% stated that they enjoyed in their spare time- only 35%of boys opted for creative pastime. Bike riding, on the other hand was almost as popular as electronic games amongst boys and, perhaps surprisingly, almost 60% of girls said that they enjoyed this too. Skateboarding was relatively less popular amongst both boys and girls, although it sill attractive 35% of boys and 25% of girls.   
6. The chart shows the percentage change in enrolment figures, between the years 2001 and 2002, at one university. During this period, Arts, Humanities and Language courses were generally less popular than Science courses (although there are some variations on this). Part-time enrolments on these courses fell considerably and full-time enrolments fell or changed very little.
Overall, part-time enrolments stayed below 20,000 for all subject areas. As for full-time enrolments the most heavily subscribed subject areas were Business (around 100,000 students) and Engineering (just over 8,000 students)
A significant increase in students enrolments occurred in the Biological sciences: full-time enrolments went up by nine per cent and part-time enrolments, by five percent. There was also a considerable increase in the number of pasttime students signing up for Mathematical sciences; at 11 per cent, this was the single number most significant increase, although overall, student numbers were the lowest at just under 1,000 for part-time students and just under 20,000 full-timers.

A total of 1,510 people said they watched the soap opera. Just over/under half these people were in the 21-25 age-group which comprised a total of 758 viewers. This was the largest age-group. Seventeen per cent of the viewers were in the second-largest age group (26-30), which had a total of 258 people. There were a similar number of viewers aged below 20. After the age of 30, the number of viewers fell significantly. The 31-35 age-group made up only 10 per cent of the viewers and there were 76 people in the 36-40 age-group who said they watched the program. Only three per cent of the viewers were over 40. Obviously the program appeals to young people most.
8. An athlete’s diet should consist of large quantities of carbohydrate. In fact, 60 per cent of an athlete’s daily diet should be made up of carbohydrate. The second most important food group is fat which should account for 25 per cent of an athlete’s diet. The food group which is required in the smallest amounts is protein. The appropriate proportion of this food group is 15 per cent of the total food intake.
9. A sample of one hundred people was interviewed at random about their views on the Internet. While the majority of those interviewed had heard of the computer facility, relatively few knew how to use it and only 20 per cent of the sample had access to it. In most cases, those who said they could use the Internet were students or were, not surprisingly, under 40 years of age. The minority who had not even heard of it tended to be 60 years old or more. Overall it was felt that the sample was representative of the general population.
