Answer

The pie chart shows the time allocation of students daily activities which cover study 20%, recreation 12%, play 5%, other 8%, school and house 25% and sleep 30%. Every student has to perform his daily activities. From morning to evening, from day to night, he has to do his routine work. He has to follow a daily routine to perform his daily activities. A student is supposed to make the proper time allocation of his daily activities if he wants to succeed in life. In the pie chart the time covering for study is 20%. It shows the time frame of 4.8 hours. The time  frame for recreation is 12% which is 2.88 hours of the day. It is not supposed to be usual for a student if he spends so much time in recreation.

The time frame for play is 5% which is supposed to be ok on the part of a student. The time frame for other activities is 8%. It is also ok if the activities are relevant and necessary in the day to day life. The time frame for school and house is 25%. It is not supposed to be usual because the normal school hours is 6 hours i.e. 25% of 24 hours. The time frame for sleep is 30% which is more than 6 hours and it is not usual for a normal human being.

2.The graph below shows the arrival of tourists from different countries in Bangladesh from 2004 to 2008. Describe the chart in 150 words.  You should highlight and summarize the information given in the chart.

 

  Arrival of Tourists in Bangladesh

 

 Arrival of Tourists in Bangladesh

Answer:    The chart shows the number of visitors from different countries to Bangladesh. It is clear that the highest number of tourists come from the UK though it is declining now.

We see from the chart that tourists of Australia visiting Bangladesh were 2684 in 2004. It decreased to 2091 in 2005  but it steadily increased to 3409 in 2008. From Japan, the numbers of tourists were 7808, 7055, 8000, 7090 and 7325 in the years of 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008 respectively. The French are less in number to visit our country. The number is seen 2263, 2457, 2336, 2289 and 2589 respectively. A huge number of British and American tourists come to visit Bangladesh every year. The British tourists are seen to be 19605, 22510, 29106, 34087 and 28905 in number in the respective years of 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008. The number of American Tourists is seen 11358 in 2004, 9557 in 2005, 11924 in 2006, 13394 in 2007 and 13622 in 2008.

In fine, we see that the lowest number of tourists come from France and Australia.But it is true that the given survey does not give any information about the arrivals from our neighboring countries.

উত্তরঃ চার্টে বিভিন্ন দেশ থেকে বাংলাদেশে আসা দর্শনার্থীর সংখ্যা দেখানো হয়েছে। এটা স্পষ্ট যে যুক্তরাজ্য থেকে সবচেয়ে বেশি সংখ্যক পর্যটক আসে যদিও তা এখন কমছে।

আমরা চার্ট থেকে দেখতে পাচ্ছি যে অস্ট্রেলিয়ার পর্যটক 2004 সালে বাংলাদেশে 2684 জন ছিল। 2005 সালে তা কমে 2091-এ নেমে আসে কিন্তু 2008 সালে তা ক্রমাগত বেড়ে 3409-এ দাঁড়ায়। জাপান থেকে পর্যটকের সংখ্যা ছিল 7808, 7055, 8000, 70320 এবং 2005 সালে। যথাক্রমে 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 এবং 2008 সাল। আমাদের দেশে ফরাসিদের সংখ্যা কম। সংখ্যাটি দেখা যাচ্ছে যথাক্রমে 2263, 2457, 2336, 2289 এবং 2589। প্রতি বছর বিপুল সংখ্যক ব্রিটিশ ও আমেরিকান পর্যটক বাংলাদেশে বেড়াতে আসেন। 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 এবং 2008 সালে ব্রিটিশ পর্যটকদের সংখ্যা 19605, 22510, 29106, 34087 এবং 28905 দেখা গেছে। 2006, 2007 সালে 13394 এবং 2008 সালে 13622।

সূক্ষ্মভাবে, আমরা দেখতে পাই যে সবচেয়ে কম সংখ্যক পর্যটক ফ্রান্স এবং অস্ট্রেলিয়া থেকে আসে। কিন্তু এটা সত্য যে ,প্রদত্ত জরিপে আমাদের প্রতিবেশী দেশ থেকে আগত পর্যটক সম্পর্কে কোন তথ্য দেয়া হয়নি।

3.The bar-chart below shows elderly people’s changing attitude to pastimes. Write a report using the information given below and give a title to it.

  Elderly People’s Changing Attitude to Pastimes

The graph shows the change in people’s trends towards favourite pastimes. It is noticeable in the graph that elderly people are increasingly taking watching TV as their pastime.

There is a steady rise in elderly people’s tendency to watch TV. In 1990, 32% elderly people liked to watch TV which increases to 41% in 2000 and 49% in 2010. Playing cards is also a favourite pastime of the elderly people. We also see the rise in this tendency to play cards. While 34% people used to play cards in 1990, it increases to 36% in 2000 and 39% in 2010. We find a different picture of elderly people in their drawing room chats. They are withdrawing themselves from drawing room chats day by day. In 1990, 17% of them liked drawing room chats but the percentage decreases in the next two decades. In 2000, it decreases to 12% and it decreases to 6% in 2010. We also see their decreasing interest in other types of pastimes. In 1990, 17% of the elderly people liked other types of pastimes but the percentage decreases to 11% in 2000 and 7% in 2010. So, we can see the changes of the elderly people in their pastimes.

To conclude, watching TV has become the most enjoyable pastime for them.
