Band 7+: Writing Task 1 You should spend about 20 minutes on this task. The bar chart shows a comparison of the daily routines of school pupils between three countries. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant. Write at least 150 words.

The chart displays the total hours in a day that students spend on three activities, between three different nations.

Overall, while United States’ students tend to sleep the most, school pupils of two other countries spend most of their time studying, especially Australia’s, who have to relax less to focus more on learning.

In regard to studying, Australia’s learners spend a huge amount of time, with an average of 13 hours per day. In contrast, Canada’s students spend dramatically less time learning than those in the former, with 8.5 hours daily, slightly higher than those in the United States, with half of a hour.

When it comes to relaxing, both school pupils in the United States and Canada spend 7.5 hours, while those in Australia spend tremendously less, with just 4 hours. Furthermore, children in Australia just use 7 hours of sleep, whereas the pupils in the United States and Canada sleep for an average of 8.5 and 8 hours a day, respectively.
