IELTS JOURNAL 87 Sample Answer 40The line graph shows the number of first time visitors and returning visitors who visited Caryl Island from 2000 to 2008 The line graph depicts the number of people who visited Caryl Island over an 8 year period from 2000, with data given in two yearly increments. In 2000, the number of people who visited the destination for the first time was approximately 8,000
per annum, compared with only about 3,000 returning visitors. However, by 2002, this trend had reversed, with slightly more than 4,000 new visitors compared to nearly 10,000 returning visitors. From 2002 to 2006, both returning and first time visitor numbers increased dramatically rising to a combined total of well over 24,000 visitors. While the combined number of people visiting the island remained high in 2008, the variation between first time and returning visitors narrowed as the number of people on their first visit continued to increase while those coming back for additional visits fell.
In total, it is evident that the number of people visiting Caryl island increased significantly over the period given.
(156 words) IELTS JOURNAL 88 Sample Answer 41The process shows how plants create food The illustration shows the process by which plants are able to produce food. Plants require input from four different sources to produce the sugars that are needed. First, the roots absorb water. Added to this, the plant is able to convert sunlight into energy needed for the process to be able to take place.
Additionally, carbon dioxide is taken from the atmosphere through the leaves. Finally come the minerals which are extracted from the soil through the roots. When combined, these four factors allow
the plant to produce sugar, which is then converted into starch and stored in the leaves and the stem until required, when it is used for growth
and repair of damaged leaves, stems or roots. A byproduct of this process is the conversion of carbon dioxide to oxygen, which is released into the air. Overall, the process requires
four elements to function, and in turn produces two different effects.
