01 The pie-chart below shows the sources of US Electricity, 1970. Now write a paragraph describing the information of the following chart/graphs. 
Ans : Sources of US Electricity, 1970
The pie chart shows how electricity was generated in the US in 1970. It clearly shows that coal and gas provided the most of electricity produced that year. Only coal accounted for almost half of US electricity production, at 46%. This was almost twice as much produced by natural gas, which provided just over 24.3% of power. Renewable sources of electricity, such as hydroelectric power, supplied less than 16.2% of electric power. A small proportion 12.1% come from oil fired power station. By far the smallest sector was nuclear power which accounted for less than 2% of US electricity supply. In fine we notice that coal and gas dominated power production in the US. Hydro-electric power station, nuclear facilities and oil burning turbines produced just over a quarter of US power needs.

In 2008, the users of the internet were 5.56 lac which rose to 6.17 lac in the next one year. From the above graph, it is crystal-clear that more and more people are being interested in using internet keeping pace with the developed countries. It would not be wrong to say that the day is not far away when almost everyone will use the internet in their daily activities.
03 The chart below shows the sources of air pollution in a city. Describe the chart in 150 words. You should highlight and summarise the information given in the chart. 
[DinajB-’17]
Ans. Air Pollution in a city
The pie chart is about air pollution in a city. The chart is divided into 5 parts. It shows the sources that cause air pollution in various degree. The chart also shows the percentages of liability of these sources for air pollution. We know that the vehicles running in the city emit gases and pollute air. It is 60 percent liable for air pollution. Actually, this source is the main culprit for air pollution. Then it is industries and factories. At the time of power generation, industries and factories emit gases and cause air pollution. It is 17 percent liable for air pollution. Power plant centres also emit gases and they are 14 percent liable for air pollution. Heating and/ or air-conditioning are/ is 6 percent liable for it. However, last of all, water disposal bears the rest 3% liability for air pollution. This is the calculation of total 100 percent liability of air pollution. In fact, all these sources of air pollution are the key elements of our modern urban life. So, air pollution is the curse of our modern urban life.
04 The graph below shows the number of people living below the poverty line. Now, write a paragraph based on the information given in the graph and give a suitable title to it. [JB ’17]
The Number of People Living below the Poverty Line (%)
Ans : The Number of People Living below the Poverty Line
Bangladesh is a developing country and almost 50% people here live below the poverty line. The above graph shows the rate of people living under the poverty line from 1995 to 2010. The graph shows that in 1995, population below the poverty line was 35.6% and between 1995 and 2004, it came up to 38%. It was unfortunate that population below poverty line in 2004 became 45% and this rate was 44% between 2004 and 2008. But again the situation began to improve.
The rate came down to 36.3% in 2008. Between 2008 and 2010 the rate was 32%. The 35.6% rate of 1995 came down to 31.51% in 2010. During these 15 years, the number of people living below the poverty line came down to a great extent. People struggled against poverty and worked hard to improve their condition in these 15 years. Yet, the improvement attained in these years is not so much satisfactory as we expect.
05 The pie chart below shows the time allocation of a student’s daily activities. Describe the chart in 150 words. You should highlight and summarize the information in the chart.
[CB ’17]
Ans. Daily activities of a student

And the chart shows that the student allocated 5% time of a day for playing. He/she spent 25% time of a day in college. For sleeping the student spent 30% time of a day. And 8% time of a day is allocated for other activities.
The above chart indicates that the student spent more time in sleeping than study, play, recreation and other activities. Again he/she allocated more time in study than play, recreation and other activities. And he/she has to spend more time in college’s activities than playing, recreation, studies and other activities. He/she allocated very short time for other activities.
06 Look at the chart below. It is about the choice of profession by different educated people. Now describe the chart in your own words. [CtgB ’17]

| 80% | 4% | 10% | 6% |
Ans : People of Different Professions
This is a simple chart which shows the tendencies of our educated people towards the choice of profession. In the chart we see that most of the educated people in our country want to get a government job. The percentange of such people is 80%.
Although ours is an agricultural country, according to the chart, only 4% of the educated youths like farming while 10% of them are desirous of taking up business as their profession. Intellectual work is very significant for a nation. From the chart, we see that only 6% youths select it as their profession. However, government job is overestimated while farming and business sector are underestimated in our country.
07 The pie chart below shows the percentages of types of transportation used by 800 students to come to college. Describe the chart in 150 words. [SB ’17] 
Ans : Types of Transportation Used by Students (%)
The pie chart provides information about the percentage of types of transportation used by 800 students to come to college.

Only 10% of the students use car to come to college. 30% of the students come to college by bus. And 15% of the students come to college on foot.
So, from the chart we can say that there is a steady rise in students’ tendency to use bicycle. But on the other hand the rate of students who use car is very poor.
08 Write a paragraph on how a family’s household income is distributed into different categories describing the information of the following pie chart. 
[BB ’17]
Ans. A Family’s Household Expenditure
The pie chart shows the rate of different categories of the distribution of a family’s income. They use 25% income for food, 13% for clothes, and 22% for education. For power, transport and other daily uses, 5%, 12% and 8% are the percentages of use of income respectively. 15% money is saved.
So the largest portion of the family’s income (60%) is used for essentially needed things e.g. food, clothes and education. Other relevant necessities like power and transport cost them 17% of the income. Other expenditure is 8%. Only 15% money is saved.
The situation tells us that the total income of the family is not too much to have beyond an average life standard.

Then in 2006 it shows that the reduction of infant mortality rate was 60.83. Again in 2007 we find further improvement in infant mortality rate which was 59.12. Again, the graph indicates the decreasing infant mortality rate that was 57.45 in 2008. Next we can see a sudden increase in infant mortality rate as 59.02 in 2009. Then the graph upholds the reduction at infant mortality rate of 52.54 in 2010. Subsequently, it pictures the lower rate of infant mortality rate by 50.73 in 2011. In fine, we catch sight of the infant mortality rate of 48.99 in 2012. At last the government as well as the conscious people should come forward to diminish infant mortality rate by this time from our country.

Ans : Demography of Four Countries
The chart presents some important information about the four countries of the world namely Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, India and China. The pieces of information are about land area, population, density of population, birth rate, death rate and growth rate. If we see the land area, Bangladesh is larger than Sri Lanka, smaller than India and China is the largest. Population is the highest in China but its population density is far less than of Bangladesh. Actually Bangladesh is the first in this respect. The birth rate of India occupies the first place among these countries while Bangladesh is second in this respect and China is the last. Death rate in India is 7.48 while in Bangladesh 6.1, in Sri Lanka 5.92 and in China 7.03. So, it is the highest in India. The birth rate and the growth rate are also the highest in India. It is 1.40% in Bangladesh. China is the last in this respect.

So it is found that in the 50 years between the year 1750 and 1800 the increased population is 200 million. And in the year 1850 the population rose to 1250 million. In these 50 years the growth is 250 million. In another 50 years world population reached to 1500 million. Again in 1950 world population rose to 2000 million. But finally in 2000, world population rose to 6000 million. In these 50 years world population increased 4000 million!
So, it is seen that population is growing always.

The next percentage shows the usage of English in various organizations worldwide. It means that it is the official or semi-official language in 33% international organizations. The last one is about how much information is stored in the world’s computers in English. The percentage is 80%. It means that almost all kinds of information are available in the world’s computer in English.
28 The graph below shows the minimum temperature (in Celsius) at Chittagong and Rajshahi in the years between 1997 and 2001. Describe the chart in 150 words. You should highlight and summarise the information given in the chart.
Ans : Temperature Analysis of Chittagong and Rajshahi
The above chart shows the temperature of Chittagong and Rajshahi during the period of 1997 and 2001. In the graph, it is clear that the temperature of Chittagong fluctuates less than that of Rajshahi.
From the chart, we can see that in 1997 the minimum temperature in Chittagong was 14°C while in Rajshahi, it was 6°C. In the next year the minimum temperature in Chittagong does not change but it increases by 2°C in Rajshahi. Again, in 1999, the temperature in Chittagong increases to 15°C while it increases to 11°C in Rajshahi. In 2000, the temperature of Chittagong lessens to 14°C as in Rajshahi remains unchanged. Finally, in Chittagong in 2001, the temperature decreased by 2°C. It dropped by 1°C in Rajshahi.
In fine, if we analyse the five years temperatures of both the cities, we find the lack of consistency in the rise and fall of the temperature. But the rise and fall of temperature are not unusual; rather, it is the normal up and down of temperature.

30 The bar-chart below shows young people’s changing attitude to pastimes. Now write a report using the information given below and give a title to it.
Ans : Young People’s Favourite Pastimes
The graph shows the change in young people’s trends towards favourite pastimes. It is vivid that there is a steady rise in young people’s tendency to watch TV but there is a sharp rise of users of online and computer.
In 1990, 41% of teenagers liked watching TV which increased to 48% in the next ten years and it further increased to 52% in the next decade. Unfortunately, the picture is grim in terms of young people’s attraction to open field games and sports. When 50% of youngsters opted for games and sports in the 90s, 12% withdrew themselves from it after a decade making it 38%. Unfortunately, the falling tendency persisted on during the next ten years and by 2010 it came to 25%. Though the young people have dissociated themselves noticeably from games and sports, there is a sharp and solid increase in their association with online or computer assisted programmes.
In 1990 when the users of online or computer for pastimes was only 9%, in 2000 the number nearly doubled and reached 14% with a rapid increase in the next ten years when it shot up to 23%.
In conclusion, the graph shows that our young generations are stepping to an e-world.

Ans : Arrival of Tourists in Bangladesh
The chart shows the number of visitors from different countries to Bangladesh. It is clear that the highest number of tourists come from the UK though it is declining now.
We see from the chart that tourists of Australia visiting Bangladesh were 2684 in 2004. It decreased to 2091 in 2005 but it steadily increased to 3409 in 2008. From Japan, the numbers of tourists were 7808, 7055, 8000, 7090 and 7325 in the years of 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008 respectively. The French are less in number to visit our country. The number is seen 2263, 2457, 2336, 2289 and 2589 respectively. A huge number of British and American tourists come to visit Bangladesh every year. The British tourists are seen to be 19605, 22510, 29106, 34087 and 28905 in number in the respective years of 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008. The number of American Tourists is seen 11358 in 2004, 9557 in 2005, 11924 in 2006, 13394 in 2007 and 13622 in 2008.
In fine, we see that the lowest number of tourists come from France and Australia.

Ans : Bangladeshi Employees Abroad
The above chart shows the number of the Bangladeshis employed abroad by profession. It can be clearly seen that the skilled manpower far outnumber the professionals and the semi-skilled.
In the years of 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999 and 2000 the number of professionals employed abroad is 3188, 3797, 9574, 8045 and 10669 respectively. On the other hand, the number of skilled Bangladeshis employed abroad is 64301, 65211, 74718, 98449 and 99606 in the respective years. Again, the number of the semi skilled Bangladeshis employed in different foreign countries is 34689, 19355, 51590, 44947 and 26461 in the respective years of 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999 and 2000. The chart clearly shows the types and numbers of Bangladeshi employees employed abroad during the mentioned five years. We see that the number increased one year and decreased another year.
In conclusion, it is very clear that the demand of skilled professionals is increasing every year marking the decrease of semi-skilled employees.
33 Write a report for football fans describing the information given in the graph below.
Rates of football fans in Dhaka-men and women
Per 1,000 People
Ans. Football fans-men and women
The graph compares the rate of football fans in men and women in Dhaka between the years 1960 and 2000. It can be clearly seen that the rate of football fans for both men and women is currently declining and that fewer women have liked football throughout the period.
In 1960, 600 men in every 1000 were football fans. This number decreased gradually to 500 by 1975 and continued to decrease but more steeply to 250 in 2000. In contrast, the rate of football fans in women in 1960 was very low at only 80 in every 1000. By 1965 this increased to 170, and increased again but more steeply to 320 in 1975. The rate of female football fans then remained stable at 320 until 1985 at which point the figure began to decline and had dropped to 200 by 2000.
In conclusion, we can see that the rate of football fans in men dropped throughout the whole period but was always at a higher level than the female figures. The rate of football fans in women increased until 1975 but then decreased for the rest of the period.
34 The bar-chart below shows elderly people’s changing attitude to pastimes. Write a report using the information given below and give a title to it.
Ans. Elderly People’s Changing Attitude to Pastimes
The graph shows the change in people’s trends towards favourite pastimes. It is noticeable in the graph that elderly people are increasingly taking watching TV as their pastime.
There is a steady rise in elderly people’s tendency to watch TV. In 1990, 32% elderly people liked to watch TV which increases to 41% in 2000 and 49% in 2010. Playing cards is also a favourite pastime of the elderly people. We also see the rise in this tendency to play cards. While 34% people used to play cards in 1990, it increases to 36% in 2000 and 39% in 2010. We find a different picture of elderly people in their drawing room chats. They are withdrawing themselves from drawing room chats day by day. In 1990, 17% of them liked drawing room chats but the percentage decreases in the next two decades. In 2000, it decreases to 12% and it decreases to 6% in 2010. We also see their decreasing interest in other types of pastimes. In 1990, 17% of the elderly people liked other types of pastimes but the percentage decreases to 11% in 2000 and 7% in 2010. So, we can see the changes of the elderly people in their pastimes.
To conclude, watching TV has become the most enjoyable pastime for them.
35 The graph below shows the population density in Bangladesh (per square kilometre). Now, write a paragraph based on the information given in the graph and give a suitable title to your paragraph.
Ans. Population Density in Bangladesh
We know that Bangladesh is a small country with a huge population. The severe population density in Bangladesh is a matter of concern for the people of the country. The above graph may aggravate the agony of the concerned authority and the people of Bangladesh. We see from the graph that 1002.22 people lived per square kilometre in 2005. In 2006, we see an increase in density. It rose to 1023.37 in this year. Again, it rose to 1044.78 in 2007 and in 2008 it reached to 1066.3. In the same way, it saw the upgrade picture of population density rate in the following years. It was 1083.7 in 2009 and in 2010, it reached to 1084.17. The density rate kept increasing in the next two years. In 2011, we found a remarkable increase in the density rate of 1101.2 and in 2012, it rose to 1118.65. So, the total picture shown in the graph is really agonizing. If we fail to improve the situation, there will have no land for growing crops in the country and the government will fail to feed the ever growing people of the country.
36 Write a paragraph describing the information of the following graph/chart and give a title to it.
Ans. Attendance Rate of Protik
The chart shows the information about the monthwise attendance of Protik. And it indicates that the highest attendance rate of Protik is in the month of April.
From the given chart we see that Protik attended college for 25 days in the month of January. And he went to college in the month of February for 23 days which is two days less than that of January. The chart provides information that Protik’s attendance rate for the month of March is 25 days and it is similar to the attendance of the month of January. His highest attendance rate is 28 days for the month of April. He went to college for 22 days for the month of May. He attended college for 24 days in the month of June and for 22 days in the month of July. His second highest attendance rate is in the month of August and it is 26 days.
So, from the chart we see the lowest attendance number is 22 which shows for the months of May and July. We come to a conclusion that Protik maintains an average attendance rate from the month January to August.
37 The pie-chart below shows the percentage of the types of books in a college library. Write a report based on the given data.
Ans. The Percentage of Books in a College Library

Then fourth comes Bangla with 16%. Then fifth subject named History comes with 14% of all the books in the college library. Finally, the percentage of other books is only 8%.
In a word, it is clear that the highest number of books in the college library is English books.
38 The graph below shows the results of 1st Term Exam-2017 of Class-XI, Section-B. Describe the graph in 150 words.
Ans. Different GPA Holders
The graph shows the rate of examinees of different GPA holders at the 1st Term Examination of Class-XI.

The holders of GPA between 3.00 and 4.00 are at the third position. They are 9% of the total. The GPA 5.00 achievers are at the next place in percentage. They are 4.50%. The percentage of GPA 4.00-4.50 is at the bottom of the chart. Their percentage is 3%.
The total picture of the result of the students is frustrating. The percentage of failing is very high and the failures are the majority in the entire class. And only 4.50% have achieved the best possible result.
39 The graph below shows ‘Death Rate’ from 2005 to 2012. Describe the graph in 150 words.
Ans. Ups and Downs of Death Rate
The bar chart shows the increase and fall of death rate per 1000 people since 2005 till 2012.
The death rate is 8.4, 8.27, 8.13 and 8 (per thousand) in 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008 respectively. In 2009, the rate is 9.23 per thousand. And the last three years have seen the death rate to be 5.71, 5.75 and 5.71.
The chart clearly shows the wane of death rate from 2005 to 2008. In 2009, the death rate shockingly increased to 9.23 per thousand. And from 2010 to 2012, the death rate fluctuated between 5.71 and 5.75 per thousand.
So the death rate, which was on the wane from 2005 to 2008, made a high jump in 2009 and thereafter was fluctuating.
40 Write a paragraph describing the information of the following chart :
Ans. Activities of International Labour Organization
ILO stands for International Labour Organization. It defends the basic rights of trade union all over the world. Its main attempts are to ensure the working standards of the workers worldwide.

41 The scatter graph has been given below. Look at the graph very carefully and explain who is represented in the bus stop queue by each point on the basis of their probable age, height and position.
Ans. People in the Bus Stop Queue
The graph provides information about the probable age, height and position of the people in the bus stop queue. In the graph we observe that Errol is the tallest of all. His position in the queue is 5th. And his probable age is about 55. In the graph we also notice that Cathy is the smallest of all. Her position in the queue is 3rd. Her probable age is about 6. Dennis and Brenda are almost the same in height. But Dennis is older than Brenda. The position of Dennis is 4th while the position of Brenda is 2nd. Again in the graph we notice that Alice is taller than Freda Gavin. The position of Alice in the queue is first but the position of Freda Gavin is 6th. The probable age of Alice is about 40 but the probable age of Freda Gavin is about 25.
From the graph we can say that Alice is in the first position of the queue. But on the other hand, Freda Gavin is in the last position of the queue.

44 The graph below shows the number of mobile phone users in Bangladesh. Now, write a paragraph based on the graph and give a suitable title to it.
Mobile Phone Users in Bangladesh
Ans : The Number of Mobile Phone Users
The use of mobile phone is not a fashion now; rather, it has become a daily necessity for everyone. From the above graph we can see that the number of mobile phone users increased rapidly and is still increasing very fast. The graph shows the number of users from 1998 to 2011. In 1998, only .0241 crore people used mobile phone which rose to .0283 in 2000. Again, the number of mobile phone users rose to .1365 crore in 2003. The most remarkable change in the users of the mobile phone occurs between 2005 and 2007. The number of mobile phone users jumped to 3.43 crore in 2007 while the number was only .9 crore in 2005. Again, the number of the mobile phone users rose to 5.04 crore in 2009 but again the number unbelievably jumped to 8.5 crore in 2011.
From the graph, we can easily notice the great rise in the users of mobile phone in Bangladesh. Besides, we notice in our everyday practical life that the number of the mobile users is increasing rapidly. The survey from 1998 to 2011 of the graph gives us a hint that the day is not far away when everyone will possess at least one mobile phone.
45 Read the following chart and write a paragraph on the basis of the information given in it.
Ans : Causes of Environment Change
The chart is about environment change. Environmental change is defined as a change or disturbance of the environment caused by human influences or natural ecological process. The environment refers to the air, water and land in which people, animals and plants live. Human beings, animals, plants, air, water and soil make up the environment. Their relation to each other and the surrounding is very systematic. If this relationship is disturbed in any way, the whole environment will face a destructive change. The destruction of forests may cause drought and other natural disasters. The emission of carbon-dioxide and the burning of trees create ecological imbalance. Besides water level rising and global warming and melting of snow hamper the environment much.
So, maintaining ecological balance is very essential. But we are not careful enough to maintain this balance. For a safe environment to live in we must plant more trees. Moreover, we must be careful about the emission of CO2. In fact, it is our responsibility to prevent the environment from being spoilt.
46 Look at the following graph. It shows a comparative selling rate of four types of books in Ekushey Boi Mela 2017. Now describe/analyze the graph in your own words.

Surprisingly enough, poetry is the lowest among the four types. It sells less than 1000 books.
47 The graph below shows the irregularity of a student named Abir in attending the classes. Describe the chart in 150 words. You should highlight and summarize the information given in the chart.
Ans. Abir’s Irregularity in Attending the Classes
The graph on the question paper shows the attendance rate of an irregular student named Abir.
In this analysis based on clear data, the description of his attending the classes from the month of January to October is exhibited here where it can easily be seen that he was never present in the class for the whole month. In not a single month, he attended the class for 30 days. In only two months, he attended the class for 25 days. In only one month he attended more than twenty five days. In four months out of ten months, his rate of attendance is between the range of twenty to twenty five days while January is the only month when he attended twenty days. Finally, in the remaining two months, namely March and July Abir’s attendance was the least that is less than twenty days but more than fifteen days.

48 The chart below shows the benefits of girls’ education. Describe the chart in 150 words. You should highlight and summarize the information given in the chart.
Ans. Benefits of Girls’ Education
The chart shows the benefits of girls’ education. It exhibits various types of positive aspects of girls’ education. The chart emphasizes on it for their own betterment.
Education shows them the way to improve their health and fulfill their necessity of nutrition. When a girl is educated she herself learns how to reduce population growth. When girls contribute to family income, this contribution as a whole has its own share in the national economic productivity that can smoothly pave the national development. So, the benefits of girls’ education are beyond description. Finally, it can further be added that if a girl is educated accordingly, she will be able to sustain development efforts herself.
None would be needed to rear her up. Therefore, the significance of girls’ education is highly fruitful, indeed.
49 The graph shows the favourite subjects of 200 students. Describe the chart in 150 words. You should highlight and summarise the information given in the chart.
Preferred Subject of 200 Students

From the chart we can say that there is a steady rise in students’ tendency to prefer Bangla. But on the other hand the rate of students who prefer Math is very poor.
50 Look at the graph below. Bangladesh Fruit Export Ltd. exports fruits to different foreign countries. Now write a paragraph describing export fruits of the company. The unit shows quintals.
Shows different fruits to different foreign countries
Ans : Fruit Exports of a Bangladeshi Company
According to the chart, 70% mangoes were exported in 2012. The company exported 40% jackfruits and 35% pineapples that year. In 2013, the company exported 78% mangoes, 45% jackfruits and 42% pineapples. In the year 2014, they exported 80%, 60% and 41% mangoes, jackfruits and pineapples respectively. And finally in 2015, they exported 90% mangoes, 70% jackfruits and 50% pineapples.
So, we can see that exports of both mangoes and jackfruits increased gradually from 2012 to 2015. The export of pineapples grew from 2012 to 2013, and it decreased in 2014. Then in 2015, it again increased.
