Band 7+: You should spend about 20 minutes on this task. The bar chart below shows the percentages of internet users in different age groups in six countries. Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant. Write at least 150 words.

The bar graph illustrates the proportions of two different age groups of people using the Internet across six nations. Overall, the percentages of users between 25 and 34 years old were higher than that of those aged 55-64 in almost every country, except for the USA, which had the highest figure for older users.

Regarding the proportions of 25 to 34 year-olds users, the highest figure was recorded in South Korea with nearly 100%, followed by Russia with 92%. Ranking third, Germany and the USA had the same proportion at 88%, two times higher than the percentage of Brazil. Having a significant gap with these figures, Chinese Internet users aged from 25 to 34 was the lowest with only 20%, which was only around a fifth of South Korea’s percentage.

As for the remaining age group, almost all figures were lower than that for the younger group, except for the USA, which had the highest proportion in this age group at 91%, compared to its percentage of users aged from 25 to 34, 88%. The percentages of South Korea, Brazil, and China in this age group was the lowest with 43%, 25%, and 10%, respectively. In other words, they were all less than half of their figures for people between 25 and 34.
