IELTS Writing Sample - Table 1

Model answer

The table shows how people in different age groups spend
their leisure time in Someland over the course of a year. It can be clearly seen
that the amount of leisure time available varies considerably across the age groups
and that people of different age levels have very different ways of spending their
leisure time.

According to the figures, as people age in Someland their social lives reduce. Teenagers
and people in their twenties spend on average 500 hours per year on socialising
and 350 hours of that time is with a group of more than 4 people. Although the total
hours of socialising in their 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s is fairly constant (between
300-350), socialising with more than 4 people drops dramatically to 50 hours in
the 30s and 40s age groups and only 25 from 50 years old. Group and individual exercise
follow a similar pattern.

People of all ages spend a good part of their leisure time on entertainment such
as TV/video viewing and cinema. In both cases, teenagers and retired people spend
around twice as much time as those who are at working age. Home entertainment ranges
from just over a thousand hours for teenagers and retired people and an average
of 600 hours for everyone else. Cinema accounts for 100 hours of the teenagers and
retired people’s leisure time and 25-50 hours for the rest.

In conclusion we can see there is a significant trend towards solitary and smaller
group activities as people grow older and that teenagers and retired people spend
a lot more time on entertainment than those of working age do.
