There are two line charts that respectively illustrate the trends of the percentage of
households
with electrical appliances and the number of hours of housekeeping per week, per household during the period of 1920 to 2019 in a particular country.
According to
the first
chart
, citizens generally rely on three electrical
machines
to help with their housework,including washing
machines
,
refrigerators
and
vacuum
cleaners
. Looking from an
overall
perspective, it is apparent that there was a dramatic increase in the proportion of
households
who owned electrical appliances from 1920 to 2019,
on the contrary
, the time that every week’s housework required for each household experienced a relatively steady decline during the same time.There is
also
a noticeable change we can see from the first
chart
that

washing
machines
were in a dominant position

refrigerators

machines
and
vacuum
cleaners
was the same at 70%, after that, the proportion of
vacuum
cleaners
and
refrigerators
respectively soared by 30% and 20%.What is more, they all peaked at 100% and remained unchanged between 2000 and 2019, which left washing

cent in the next 39 years.It is worth mentioning that a dramatic surge of 0% to 90% in the proportion of using refrigerator families took place during the decades(1920-1960),it kept increasing and eventually reached the peak of 100% in 1980 and remained unfluctuating in flowing 39 years. In the second
chart
, the decade(1920-1960) witnessed a sharp decline in the amount of time spent doing housework for a week in
households
from 50% to 20%, in the next 59 years(1960-2019), the number of hours of housework kept a relatively slight fall and reached a bottom of about 10% in 2019.
