This is not a pie chart. This is a bar chart. You should not have charts mixed up and it is a dangerous thing to happen in this task.


The introduction should be followed by an overview. The above paragraph is not a proper overview because the overview should only discuss the main trends and should not include data and details. Once you do the overview, you can proceed to a new part to discuss trends in more detail. There you should use all the statistics and details.

you're right pahan, this is bar chart :D

so, can i said that in overview, statistical data is unnecesscary ?

Yes...

how about making conclusion in writing task I, is there any suggestion ?

I personally feel this task does not require a conclusion. First, a conclusion is your final judgement or opinion. For the task 2 essay you need to have that because it is based on an argument or issue. However, Task 1 expects a report of your observations without analysis or opinions. On the other hand, an "overview" is a simple description of the main points. It is a summary of the information shown in the graph or chart.

Second, a conclusion should be at the end of a piece of writing. An overview or general summary could go either at the end or near the beginning. Personally, I think it's a good idea to describe the main features of the graph or chart near the beginning of your essay.

Hope the above is helpful :)

exactly this very helpful for me Dumi, thank you lots :D

I think dumi has given you a very descriptive explanation on the conclusion part. I too agree with here fully because a conclusion is not a requirement for a report on your observations which is the objective of this task. Instead of writing a conclusion, you can have two paras with details (body paras). You need to find some strategy to present information in them. For example, the first detail para can talk about the similarities and the second one the differences.

thank you pahan, I should sharper my observation.

This is a fragment sentence. You need a main sentence to lead your reader understanding the topic of this paragraph.
