Road to IELTS Writing Practice Task 1

The internet has allowed me to look for myriads of resources to study the IELTS test. One site I found useful was "roadtoielts" where you can get a free trial of the course. As I have mentioned in my previous blog, I'm currently more focused on the Writing test since it's the part where I lack experience from. In this blog, I will post my sample essay of one of the practice tests I took in the above mentioned webpage.

This bar graph illustrates the involvement of Australian boys and girls aged 5 to 14 in some recreational activities. Overall, it can be said that more boys participate in leisure activities than girls.
It is safe to say that watching TV/videos is the most popular activity for each group. Almost all Australian boys and girls equally enjoy watching TV/video on their free time. Approximately more than 10% of boys engage in three out of four remaining activities. In contrast, only 1 in 3 boys take part in activities involving art and craft.
Significantly, more than half of the young girls seem to be more interested in art and craft than males. However, the percentage of females who actively participate in bike riding and electronic/computer gaming is twice as much as those who enjoy skateboarding/rollerblading.
The data from the graph indicates that young Australian men are more enthusiastic to be involved in enjoyable activities than those in the opposite sex from the same age group.


 Feedback:
I pretty much have nothing to say except for the fact that when I did this essay, I didn't time myself. In short, I took my time to understand and interpret the data presented and did my best to make use of a wide range of vocabulary. It is challenging for me to write something like this in a matter of 20 minutes.
