Band 7+: You should spend about 20 minutes on this task. The chart below shows the world production output from Asia, Europe, and the rest of the world in different years. Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant. Write at least 150 words.

The diagram illustrates the proportion of the world production output from three distinct regions: Asia, Europe, and the rest of the world, between 1840 and 2000. Overall, Europe and Asia have a contrasting trend, whereas the other nations’ yield increased moderately.

Initially, Asia dominated the production yield with 50% output in 1840. Europe and the rest of the world followed with 40% and 10%, respectively. From 1840 to 1920, Asia’s production suffered a massive decline, dropping to 20%. On the other hand, the yield of Europe and the rest of the world increased considerably, reaching 50% and 30%, respectively, both surpassing Asia. In 1960, Europe had similar proportion when compared to the other nations at approximately 38%.

In contrast, Asia rebounded and skyrocketed back to 40% in 2000, reclaiming the highest output title. Moreover, Europe bounced back down to around 27%, becoming the least active continent in production output in 2000. Evidently, the rest of the world experienced a moderate decline down to approximately 32%.
