The table above shows data on the demographics of four nations.

Sample Answer 1

The table provides demographic information on four distinct countries.

The most notable pattern is the similarity in average life expectancy between the United States of America and Russia.

China has the largest population among the four countries, exceeding 1.3 billion people, but it has the lowest per capita income and an average life expectancy of over 75 years. On the other hand, the UK has the smallest population, with 64 million people, but the highest average life expectancy and a per capita income of over $41,000.

In the United States of America, the per capita income exceeds $52,000, the population is 31 million, and the average life expectancy is less than 70 years. In comparison, Russia has a population approximately half that of the United States, with a life expectancy of over 72 years and a per capita income of less than $15,000.

In summary, China has the lowest GDP per capita despite having the largest population.

Band 7+

                          The table contains demographic information on four distinct countries. The most prevalent pattern is that the average life expectancy in the United States of America and Russia is nearly identical.

                          China has the highest population of all four countries at over 1.3 billion people, but the lowest per capita income and an average life expectancy of more than 75 years, whereas the UK has the lowest population at 64 million people but the highest average life expectancy and a per capita income of more than $41,000.

                         In the United States of America, per capita income exceeds $52,000, the population is 31 million, and the average life expectancy is fewer than 70 years. Russia, on the other hand, has a population about half that of the United States, with a life expectancy of over 72 years and a per capita income of less than $15,000.

                    In summary, China has the lowest GDP per capita while also having the greatest population.
