The graph below gives information about changes in the birth and death rates in New Zealand between 1901 and 2101.Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
This
line graph shows how New
Zealand
's
birth
and death rates have changed over the two-hundred-year period from 1901 to 2101.
It is clear that
in New
Zealand
births have exceeded deaths over
this
past time.
However
,
this
trend may be reversed in 2041. In 1901, New
Zealand
's
birth
rate
was around 20/000s, which was more than twice as high as the death
rate
. 20 years later, there was a noticeable change. The
birth
rate
fell by 5/000s,
while
the death
rate
saw an increase of a similar magnitude. The
birth
rate
peaked at about 65/000s in approximately 1961, but
then
it
also
shows a significant decline in 1981, at about 15/000s, to 50/000s.
By contrast
, the mortality
rate
, which continued to move higher over the time shown, fluctuated negligibly. The figure for births in New
Zealand
fluctuates as well but remains generally higher than the figure for deaths until 2041. After 2041, the number of deaths overtakes the number of births, and the discrepancy between the mortality
rate
and the
birth
rate
is likely to be more than 10/000s.
