IELTS WRITING TASK 1 ACADEMIC:- THE GRAPH BELOW GIVES INFORMATION ABOUT THE CONSUMPTION OF DRINK BEVERAGES(IN MILLIONS OF LITRES PER WEEK) IN CANADA FROM 1990 TO 2010.





ANSWER:-


The line graph exhibits the intake trends of milk and pepsi in Canada between 1990 and 2010. The data is calibrated in millions of litres per week. 

Consumption of both the drinks followed inverse trend. The drink which was highly consumed in 1990 was milk as people consumed 35 litres of it in a week while, only 26 litres of pepsi was consumed. In the following year, a downfall of eight litres in milk consumption was witnessed that further continues but at slow pace between 1995 and 2010, making it least preferred drink with the intake of only 26 litres in 2010. 

Conversely, pepsi gained benefit from the decreasing popularity of milk as it consumption continue to soar. Significant hike in the intake of this drink happened between the last five years as it increased from 30 litres to 36 litres. 

Overall, adulterated drink became the first choice of Canadians while intake of milk fell noticeably.
