1. Line graph
1.1. Tips for Line graph
Line graphs always show changes over time. Here's some advice about how to describe them:
Try to write 4 paragraphs - introduction, summary of main points, 2 detail paragraphs.
For your summary paragraph, look at the "big picture" - what changes happened to all of the lines from the beginning to the end of the period shown (i.e. from the first year to the last). Is there a trend that all of the lines follow (e.g. an overall increase)?
You don't need to give numbers in your summary paragraph. Numbers are specific details. Just mention general things like 'overall change', 'highest' and 'lowest', without giving specific figures.
Never describe each line separately. The examiner wants to see comparisons.
If the graph shows years, you won't have time to mention all of them. The key years to describe are the first year and the last year. You should also mention any 'special' years (e.g. a peak or a significant rise/fall).
Start describing details (paragraph 3) with a comparison of the lines for the first year shown on the graph (e.g. in 1990, the number of...).
Use the past simple (increased, fell) for past years, and 'will' or 'is expected/predicted to'

    Even an appropriate chart type is selected, issues such as scaling, suitable titles and legend types must be considered carefully to ensure effective communication of the data so that it can be interpreted to aid decision making. Data is usually presented in digital table form, sometimes printed out only from the spreadsheet. While this presentation style provides detailed figures, it is not the efficient way to provide and disseminate information. It may be emphasizing some key information, or to emphasize the relationship between certain data or to identify trends. Appropriately presenting data in the form of graphs or graphs can be a useful analysis tool and this can facilitate the decision-making process if the data is effectively interpreted. It allows the user to create charts or graphs that look very professional and let decision makers review data…

    Murder rate changes from state to state, but when comparing rates from 2002 and 2012 you will realize many states have only had a slight increase in murder rates during this ten year time period. There are also some states whose rates have decreased. Also some people may think that states with a higher population will have a higher murder rate, but with my second and third maps I will be able to show that that is not always the case. My first map will show the percent change in murder rates by state between 2002 and 2012. My second map will show the percent change in population between 2002 and 2012. Finally, my third map will show which states had an increase in murder rate and population, a decrease in both murder rate and population, an increase in only population and…
