The given pie charts illustrate the daily routines of people in the United Kingdom in 1971 and 2001, detailing how they spent their time on various activities.
Starting with the first pie chart from 1971, we can see that the use of computers was minimal at only 2%. In contrast, book reading was approximately 6%. The percentage of people spending time on furniture exhibitions and dining in restaurants ranged between 9% and 10%. Car usage accounted for 22%, while petrol consumption was at 10%. Notably, a significant 44% of people preferred to eat at home.
When we compare this to the year 2001, several changes in daily life activities in the UK are evident. The percentage of individuals using computers rose to 12%, reflecting a growing trend. However, book reading decreased to roughly 1%, likely due to the increased access to information via the internet. The interest in furniture exhibitions saw a slight decline to 8%, while dining out in restaurants increased to 14%. Car usage skyrocketed to 43%, and fuel consumption dropped to 8%, possibly due to the rising popularity of electric, CNG, and diesel cars.
