You should spend about 20 minutes on this task. The graph and chart below give information on the average daily maximum and minimum temperatures in degrees Celsius (°C) and the average number of days with rainfall each month for two Australian cities. Write a report for a university, lecturer describing the information shown below. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant. You should write at least 150 words.

The graph shows the average maximum and minimum temperatures in degree Celsius on a daily basis in

Brisbane

and

Canberra

. The chart

further

provides data about the average number of

days

with

rainfall

from January to

December

in

Brisbane

and

Canberra

.

Overall

, it can be derived from the data that

Canberra

is a colder city and has more fluctuations in its temperature throughout the year with its average

rainfall

going up only from June to October.

However

,

Brisbane

being the hotter city

also

experiences more

rainfall

during most of the months of the year than

Canberra

. The first chart shows that

Brisbane

and

Canberra

are equally hot during January and

December

with the temperature ranging around 26-30 degrees Celsius. As it starts to cool down from January to May, June to August are the coldest months with a range of 0 to 12 degrees and about 12-20 degrees in

Canberra

and

Brisbane

, respectively. From

then

on, the temperatures start to rise till

December

, in both cities. In the second chart, the highest amount of

rainfall

received is in February and March with an average of 14

days

.

Furthermore

, it goes down to approximately 7

days

before rising again in

December

.

In contrast

, the maximum

rainfall

that

Canberra

receives is from June to August, which is about 10

days

.

Otherwise

, it is always less than 8

days

during the rest of the months in

Canberra

.
