Band 6+: The graph below shows the total value of exports and the value of fuel, food, and manufactured goods exported by one country from 2000 to 2005. Summarize the information by highlighting main features and make comparisons where relevant.

The line graphs illustrate the total value of exports and value of three different export commodities including fuel, food, and manufactured goods by a country. The data were recorded in the period of 6 years, from 2000 to 2005. Overall, it can be observed that the changes in selected export commodities are not obviously correllated with the total value of exports.

Based on the first graph, the total value of exports in 2000 to 2002 declined from 300,000 million to 250,000 million dollars. However, in the following year to 2005, the number was consistently increasing and peaked at around 425,000 million dollars.

Based on the second graph, it can be seen that the value from fuel exports in 2000 was the highest among the three commodities, around 42,500 million dollars. The number was declining to around 20,000 million dollars in 2005, hence it became second highest export value, surpassed by manufactured goods. The export value from manufactured goods on the other hand, were slightly fluctuated, but mostly above 20,000 million dollars. The value from food exports were the lowest but relatively stable.
