1.Task 1: Study the chart about energy consumption in Highland in 2000 and fill the gaps with the information from the chart.

The chart shows the energy consumption in Highland in 2000. As can be seen, the total energy consumption was (1) ________million tons. Petroleum made up the largest amount of this figure (57 million tons). This was followed by the consumption of (2) _________ (40 million tons). Nuclear & Hydroelectricity made up the
(3) _________ amount of energy consumption
(20 million tons).

3. Task 3: Describe the chart, using the information from task 1 and 2.
+ Opening: The chart shows/presents ……..
+ Body: As can be seen from the chart, + S + V+ …..
Ex:
As can be seen from the chart, there was an upward trend….

(the difference of energy consumption between the two years 2000 and 2005)
+ Closing: - in general, there was…..
From the information we can see that there was a difference….. between the two years (2000 and 2005)


The chart shows the energy consumption in Highland in 2000 and 2005.
As can be seen, there was an upward trend in the consumption of coal and nuclear and hydroelectricity. It was a sharp decrease in the use of petroleum in 2005 . The amount of coal used increased by 5 million tons compared with 2000 and the consumption of nuclear & hydroelectricity soared up dramatically by 50 million tons. However, the amount of petroleum consumed in 2005 went down by 50 million tons
In general , there was a difference in the amount as well as trend of consuming different sources of energy between the two years.
