The pie charts compare five categories of household expenditure in the UK and New Zealand in the years 1980 and 2008.

It is noticeable that the proportion of spending on food and drink fell in both countries over the 28-year period, while spending on utility bills rose. Also, UK residents spent a significantly larger percentage of their household budgets on leisure than their New Zealand counterparts.

In 1980, 29% of an average New Zealand household budget went on food and drink, while the equivalent figure for a UK home was 23%. By 2008, expenditure on food and drink had fallen by 4% in New Zealand, and by a full 10% in the UK. By contrast, both countries saw an increase in expenditure on utility bills for the average home, from 27% to 31% in New Zealand and from 26% to 28% in the UK.

Leisure activities accounted for the highest proportion of UK household spending in both years, but only the third highest proportion in New Zealand. In fact, in 2008, New Zealanders spent only half as much in relative terms on recreation (17%) as UK residents (34%). In both countries, transport costs and other costs took roughly 15% and 10% of household budgets respectively.

Thank you teacher for you lesson 😙😙😙. It is very useful👍👍👍

[mahikan]

Thank you for the video, it's very informative and educational. I've noticed you made one mistake that might not be crucial for IELTS, but that is very important to avoid in general. It's incorrect to say that the expenditure on food and drinks in the UK had fallen by 10% because the decrease from 23 to 13 is almost 50%. The correct way would be to say that it had fallen by 10 percent points.

Great method of teaching!!! I totally enjoyed learning in fact i subscribed the channel. The only thing it was not convenient for me that the chart wasn't anywhere on writing page so i had to go back to relate writing with the chart everytime. Hopeful he'll fix it.

[dostonraxmonov]

Thank you a lot you are amazing Ielts teacher

[triviet]

can you please explain why should we use the word 'by'? For example, you use 'by 2008' in this pie chart example. Thank you!

[amanaulakhaulakh]

Sir pls posted video on diagram as soon as possible

[Saudi_reel]

Thnk you for your videos! However, the pie charts are for the years 1980 & 2008 - so it is not a "over period of 28 years" because they for only 2 sapret years and not during them. There may be a rise in 1982 in the category of "food and drink"!

Am I right?
