40.1 Imagine that you are doing a project on natural population growth by country. You have collected some data on the subject (see the table below).
Comment on the data in the table and give your personal opinion on the subject of the project.
| County | Natural increase rate |
|---|---|
| Angola | 35 |
| Israel | 12.9 |
| Norway | 4.1 |
| Russia | −2.5 |
| Bulgaria | −5.8 |
Write 200−250 words. Use the following plan:

— make 1−2 comparisons where relevant;
— outline a problem that can arise with the population growth and suggest the way of solving it;
— draw a conclusion giving your personal opinion on the importance of population growth

40.1. The natural population growth allows one to have a better understanding of the growth of human kind. My project, which I am still working on, is aimed at finding out the natural population growth by country. I have found some data on this issue and organized it in the table below
I can identify two main features of the statistics presented in the table below. The first one is that Angola has a 35 natural increase rate. The second one is that Bulgaria has a natural increase rate of −5.8.
It is also worth mentioning that Russia has a −2.5 natural increase rate.
In my opinion, the statistics in the table reveal an important problem. The population growth rate for both Angola and Israel are too high in comparison to the population growth rate in Norway. I think that in order to solve this problem the government should encourage the adoption of children without homes to decrease the higher natural increase rates.
In conclusion, I believe that the promotion of adoption can lead to a decline of the natural population growth.. This can lead to a normal natural population growth in countries with a higher natural population growth.

40.2. TV is, undeniably, an important part of the daily life of many people all around the world, as it serves as an easily available source of entertainment. However, TV can also take up too much time of one’s day, making it harmful. My project, which I am still working on, is aimed at finding out when and how many people view TV the most. I have found some data on this issue and organised it in the graph below.
I can identify two main features of the statistics presented in the graph. The first one is that the lowest number of people watch TV at 7 AM. The second one is that almost 40% of people watch TV at 5 PM, making it the most popular time of the day to do so.
It is also worth mentioning that only slightly more people watch TV at 3 PM than at 9 AM.
In my opinion, the statistics in the table reveal an important problem. Far too many people spend their evenings watching TV. Instead, it would be more beneficial for them to read a book and learn something new. In my opinion, to solve this problem, there should be more educational content on TV so that people who do watch TV would learn while doing so.
In conclusion, I believe that TV is an information source that will remain important for years to come, so making it more educational and informative is an important goal for society.
