40.1. Reading is a vital part of one’s education, as well as a great source of high-quality entertainment. My project, which I am still working on, is aimed at finding out the connection between age and reading regularly. I have found some data on this issue and organised it in the table below.
I can identify two main features of the statistics presented in the table. The first one is that the highest percentage of readers can be found at age 18 to 24. The second one is that the lowest percentage of readers are among people 60 and older.
It is also worth mentioning that only two per cent more people aged 35 to 44 read regularly compared to 45- to 59-year-olds.
In my opinion, the statistics in the table reveal an important problem. A lot of elderly people don’t read regularly, which makes them prone to quicker deterioration of their mental abilities. I believe that in order to solve this problem older people should start reading with their children and grandchildren more.
In conclusion, I believe that books play an important role in society and should not be dismissed as a source of wisdom and knowledge by anyone and especially by students.

40.2. The GDP of a countryman is an extremely insightful data to estimate the growth rate of a country. My project, which I am still working on, is aimed at finding the GDP in billions of dollars of Hungary. I have found some data on this issue and organized it in the chart below
I can identify two main features of the statistics presented in the chart below. The first one is that the lowest GDP was of 48 billions of dollars in 1995. The second one is that the highest GPD was of 132 billions of dollars in 2019.
It is also worth mentioning that the GDP has increased since 1995 until 2010 and began decreasing since 2010.
In my opinion, the statistics in the chart reveal an important problem. We can see that the GDP has begun to decrease since 2010, which means that the growth rate of the economy has decreased. I think that in order to solve this problem the government should promote a wider and stable domestic production.
In conclusion, I believe that the promotion of more domestic production from various sources would increase the GDP. This would balance out the decrease of the economic growth that is reflected in the data of the GDP of Hungary between 1995 and 2015.
