6、1, 1991 and 2001. In all three years, the greatest expenditure was on staff salaries. But while other workers salaries saw a fall from 28% in 1981 to only 15% of spending in 2001, teachers pay remained the biggest cost, reaching 50% of total spending in 1991 and ending at 45% in 2001. Expenditure on
7、 resources such as books had increased to 20% by 1991 before decreasing to only 9% by the end of the period. In contrast, the cost of furniture and equipment saw an opposite trend. This cost decreased to only 5% of total expenditure in 1991 but rose dramatically in 2001 when it represented 23% of th
8、e school budget. Similarly, the cost of insurance saw a rising trend, growing from only 2% to 8% by 2001. Overall, teachers salaries constituted the largest cost to the school, and while spending increased dramatically for equipment and insurance, there were corresponding drops in expenditure on thi
9、ngs such as books and on other workers salaries. 【知识模块】 写作 2 【正确答案】 The table compares spending on three categoriesfood/drinks/tobacco, clothing/ footwear and leisure/education in Ireland, Italy, Spain, Sweden and Turkey in 2002, as a percentage of total consumer spending. People in Turkey (32.14%)
10、and Ireland (28.91%) spend relatively high amounts on food/drinks/tobacco, whilst consumers in Spain (18.80%), Italy (16.36%) and Sweden (15.77%) spend roughly half that proportion. The percentages for spending on clothing/footwear differ to a lesser degree. Consumers in Turkey (6.63%), Spain (6.51%
11、) and Ireland (6.43%) spend around 6.5% of their household expenditure on clothing/footwear. People in Sweden spend a lower proportion (5.40%) and people in Italy spend relatively more (9.00%). Spending on leisure/education is relatively low in all five countries, though there are marked differences
12、. People in Turkey spent the highest percentage on this item (4.35%). Those in Sweden and Italy spent almost exactly the same percentages (3.22% and 3.20% respectively). In Ireland, the figure was 2.21% and in Spain it was 1.98% less than half the figure for Turkey. Overall, we can see that spending
13、 on food/drinks/tobacco was always greater than spending on clothing/footwear, which in turn was always higher than expenditure on leisure/education. 【知识模块】 写作 3 【正确答案】 The chart gives information about the proportion of men and women who received different levels of post-school qualifications in Au
14、stralia in 1999. The biggest gender difference is at the lowest post-school level, where 90% of those who held a skilled vocational diploma were men, compared with only 10% of women. The disparity at the higher levels of education is also noticeable, although not that significant, with the fact that
15、 men who successfully got postgraduate diplomas clearly outnumbered their female counterparts (70% and 30%, respectively), and also comprised 60% of the Masters. By contrast, more women held undergraduate diplomas (70%) and marginally more women reached degree level (55%). Thus we can see that more
16、men than women hold qualifications at the lowest and higher levels of education, while quite the reverse is true as to the case of undergraduate diplomas. The gender difference is smallest at the level of Bachelors degree. 【知识模块】 写作 4 【正确答案】 The two pie charts above give the reasons why people eithe
17、r left or stayed in the UK. Interestingly, the most common reason for both leaving and staying in the UK is to join family and friends (leaving 39%, staying 34%), implying the United Kingdom is both a country of in-transit migrants and returning expats. The second most common reason for leaving the
18、UK is, unsurprisingly, its weather (24%), while the second most common reason for staying are the many and varied opportunities for work (28%). In fact, the UK appears to have a positive labour flow, with the number of people emigrating for work being 18%. The third most common reason for staying is
19、 the lovely sound and infinite variation of the language itself, as 19% of the people would agree. Finally, roughly similar amounts of people left the UK for financial reasons (10%) and tax purposes (9%), suggesting the wealthy are apparently finding that Britain asks too much of them in the way of public investment. In contrast, 10% of UK immigrants are there for the free health care system the NHS provides, and 9% are there for “financial reasons“ , for which we should perhaps read “benefits“ . 【知识模块】 写作
