IELTS WRITING Task 1. The line graph illustrates the proportion of tourists who visited Brighton attractions in England from 1980 to 2010.

The graph shows information about the percentage of

tourists

who visited Brighton attractions over a thirty-year period between 1980 and 2010. What stands out from the graph is that the

Pavilion

was by far the most popular attraction than that of the other attractions in question.

Overall

, the Pier and

Pavilion

witnessed a rise in the proportion of

tourists

,

while

the figures for the Festival and Art Gallery went down over the period shown. In 1980, the highest fraction of

tourists

(30%) was attracted to visit the Festival in Brighton.

This

value for the

Pavilion

and Art Gallery was almost 24 per

cent

and 22 per

cent

, respectively. The proportion of Pier visitors was nearly 10 per

cent

, which meant that it was visited less than the other attractions.

Following

this

, the figure related to the percentage of

tourists

who visited the

Pavilion

shot up and peaked at just under half of the total

tourists

in 1995 and

then

decreased significantly until 2010 by approximately 20%.

Although

the proportion of Festival visitors remained stable between 26 and 30 per

cent

, the percentage of Art Gallery visitors experienced a considerable fall after hitting a peak at about thirty-seven per

cent

in 1985. Another interesting point is that the fraction of

Pavilion

attraction visits by

tourists

fluctuated until 2000, and

then

rose to just over one-fifth of

tourists

.
