5、tgraduates who did different types of work, further study or were unemployed after graduation in 2008. For UK graduates, the majority of the population chose further study as their destination, reaching 29,665, which is considerably higher than the sum of the population (21,235) who chose to work: p

6、art-time work (17,735) and voluntary work (3,500). The number of graduates who could not get a job was nearly the same as that of part-time work with 16,235. Similar to the distribution of the numbers of graduates, the number of postgraduates going to do voluntary work was also the smallest with onl

7、y 345 and that of unemployment was 1,625. Compared with graduates, the gap between the numbers of people who did part-time work and continued to study was much narrower with 2,535 and 2,725 respectively, which resulted in that the number of postgraduates who got a job (2,880) was slightly over that

8、of further study. In general, the largest number of both graduates and postgraduates chose further study as their destination, while the number of voluntary workers was the least. However, more postgraduate students did part-time work than graduate students. 【知识模块】 小作文（看图作文） 2 【正确答案】 The chart shows

9、 the time spent by UK residents on different types of telephone calls between 1995 and 2002. Local fixed line calls were the highest throughout the period, rising from 72 billion minutes in 1995 to just under 90 billion in 1998. After peaking at 90 billion the following year, these calls had fallen

10、back to the 1995 figure by 2002. National and international fixed line calls grew steadily from 38 billion to 61 billion at the end of the period in question, though the growth slowed over the last two years. There was a dramatic increase in mobile calls from 2 billion to 46 billion minutes. This ri

11、se was particularly noticeable between 1999 and 2002, during which time the use of mobile phones tripled. To sum up, although local fixed line calls were still the most popular in 2002, the gap between the three categories had narrowed considerably over the second half of the period in question. 【知识

The quantity of goods transported by road was always the highest. In 1974, it was about 70 million tonnes, which was much higher than the quantities deliv

13、ered by other transports, roughly 40 million for water and rail and just 5 million for pipeline. Then, it showed an overall increasing trend, though there were occasional fluctuations before it reached slightly less than 100 million tonnes in 2002. The amounts of goods transported by water and rail

14、were very close in the first 4 years of this time period. However, since 1978 they showed different developing trends, generally upward for water and downward for rail. In 2002 the quantity delivered by water reached 65 million tonnes and that of rail also exceeded the level of 1974, because since 1

15、995 it started to rise again. The amount of goods carried by pipeline was always the least, but it kept climbing from 5 million tonnes in 1974 to 22 million tonnes in 1995, when it plateaued at that level till 2002. In summary, the quantities of goods delivered in the UK by four different means of t

16、ransport showed an overall rising trend, except for the rail which fluctuated in the period in question. 【知识模块】 小作文（看图作文） 4 【正确答案】 The table illustrates how money was spent on three different categories of items in five countries in 2002. The percentage of expenditure on food, drinks, tobacco was th

17、e highest for all the countries. Turkish people spent the highest (32.14%), which was followed by Ireland with 28.91%. Italians, the Spanish and Swedes spent similar proportions of their money on such items, among which Swedens percentage was the lowest (15.77%). The gap between these five countries

18、 was considerable, when we see the percentage of Sweden was about half that of Turkey. The percentages of money spent on clothing and footwear were similar across these five countries, ranging between 5% and 10%, with Italy the most (9%) and Sweden the least (5.4%). The rest clustered above 6%, but

19、less than 7%. Compared with the two categories already analysed, the consumer expenditure on leisure/education was noticeably lower, especially Spain with a percentage of less than 2%. Comparatively, the Turkish spent the highest percentage of their money on leisure and education, but still lower than 5%. Overall, the five countries had very close spending habits. Food, drinks and tobacco had the highest value, while leisure and education had the least. 【知识模块】 小作文（看图作文）
