You must present the information in your own words as complete sentences within paragraphs. You are required to write over 150 words, and the task should be completed in 20 minutes (both part 1 and 2 must be finished in 1 hour) .  \nQuestions:  \n1. How many words should you write?  \n2. How long should you take to write your essay?  \n3. Are there different time periods in this task?  \nRequires  \n1. Past or present tense  \n2. Comparison vocabulary to describe differences and similarities of data.  \n3. Articles (a, an, the) for nouns  \nHow to Improve  \n1. Do exercises to improve comparatives and superlatives for comparing data  \n2. Do exercises to use the correct language with numbers and percentages  \n3. Read sample questions and answers  \n4. Learn how to correctly structure a static task  \n5. Practice writing static tasks  \n6. Receive feedback on practice tests  \n7. Use the feedback to improve your answers  \nAdjectives: Comparing and contrasting  \n\n| One syllable | comparative | superlative |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| cheap | cheaper | cheapest |\n| large | larger | largest |\n\n\n| Two syllables “y” | comparative | superlative |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| happy | happier | happiest |\n| lucky | luckier | luckiest |\n\n\n| Two syllables | comparative | superlative |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| common | more common | most common |\n| modern | more modern | most modern |\n\nExceptions:  \ngood bad  \nbetter worse  \nbest worst  \nExercise 1 : Comparatives and Superlatives  \n\n|  | comparative | superlative |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Accurate | More accurate | Most accurate |\n| Certain |  |  |\n| Pretty |  |  |\n| Convenient |  |  |\n| Correct |  |  |\n| Dangerous |  |  |\n| Happy |  |  |\n| Modern |  |  |\n| Funny |  |  |\n| New |  |  |\n| Possible |  |  |\n| probable |  |  |\n| up-to-date |  |  |\n\nLanguage with numbers and percentages  \nWhen writing your report you must carefully identify whether the information that is given involves countable data (trees), uncountable data (water), or percentages (15%) . This is because the language used with the three types is different. If you use the incorrect language the examiner will easily identify it and your vocabulary score will be lowered.  \nCountable numbers  \nThe number of trees was 100.  \nThe quantity of trees was 100.  \nUncountable numbers  \nThe amount of water used was 100 litres.  \nPercentages  \nThe rate of water usage was 15 per cent.  \nThe water usage was 15%  \nThe water usage was fifteen per cent.  \nThe water usage increased by 15 percent.  \nThe water usage (15%) and power usage (16%) were about the same.  \nThe water usage and power usage were 15% and 16%, respectively.  \nExercise 2: Language with numbers and percentages  \n.  \nSteps to complete a task 1 static:  \n1. Read and underline key vocabulary in the question and write words with the same or related meaning  \n2. Brainstorm key points for the answer  \n􀁸 Striking numbers/percentages (highest and lowest)  \n􀁸 Comparisons (higher and lower data)  \n􀁸 Similarities (the same)  \n􀁸 Data that can be combined (similarities)  \n3. Decide if this is a static (same time period) or change over time task  \n􀁸 If it is static then all verbs can be written in the present or past tense, but keep the tense consistent.  \n􀁸 If it involves different time period all verbs will be in the past tense, except the first sentence “the pie charts reveal…”  \n4. Be clear about whether the data is about percentages or numbers.  \n􀁸 For percentages you use: proportion,%, per cent, rate, one-third, two-thirds  \n􀁸 For percentages you use: amount for uncountable nouns, number for countable nouns  \n5.
