ielts-writing-task-1-bar-chart
The bar chart shows why young men were motivated to watch Formula 1 in March 2007. It is clear that there was a wide variety of responses and enjoying the excitement was the most common reason among respondents.
Firstly, the majority of viewers watched because they found it exciting as there was just over 50% of men giving this as a reason. The speed of the cars was the second most popular response with only 2% less. Forty-four percent of males watched because they were interested in the technology involved in the sport, whereas only 36% was the figure for those who had an interest in the drivers and the competitive nature of the sport.
Other reasons, such as the strategies and teamwork used, were nearly half as popular when compared to the excitement felt. Far fewer people still watched for the visual aspects, such as sport’s modern image, glamour and branding, at 22%, 16% and 15% respectively. One of the least favored reasons was because it was their favorite sport and men watching Formula 1 for its fairness and honesty accounted for a mere 9%.
Only 7% gave no reason for following F1.

The chart shows the difficulties people have when they move to a new country and how the problems vary according to people’s ages.
The greatest problem for young people aged 18 to 34 is forming friendships, a problem experienced by 46 percent of the people in this age group. However, only 36 percent of 35 to 54-year-old find it hard to make friends, while even fewer people over 55 (23 percent) have this problem.
54 percent of the older age group find learning to speak the local language the most problematic. In comparison, the youngest age group finds this easier, and the percentage who have problems learning the language is much lower at 29 percent.
In contrast to their language-learning difficulties, only 22 percent of people in the oldest age group have trouble finding accommodation. However, this is the second most significant problem for the other two age groups with 39 to 40 percent of the people in each group finding it hard.
In general, all age groups experience the same problems to some extent, but the percentage of older people who find language learning difficult is much higher than the others.

IELTS Writing Task 1 – Cấu trúc mô tả số liệu bar chart

Bài viết này sẽ chia sẻ tips quan trọng giúp các bạn có thể sử dụng các cấu trúc ngữ pháp linh hoạt khi làm bài.
