PRESENTATION
TASK 1: Work in pairs and answer the questions below
1. What does the chart show?
2. Does it describe the past, the present, or the future?
3. Which made up the largest amount of consumption: petroleum, coal, or nuclear and hydroelectricity?
4. Which consumption ranked the second?
5. Which made up the smallest amount of consumption?
Suggested answers
The chart shows the energy consumption in highland in two years 2000 and 2005.
It describes the past.
In 2000 petroleum made up the largest amount of consumption, but in 2005 nuclear and Hydroelectricity made up the largest amount of consumption.
Coal ranked the second in 2000; however in 2005 petroleum did.
In 2000, nuclear and hydroelectricity made up the smallest amount of consumption, but in 2005 coal made up the smallest amount of consumption.
The chart shows the energy consumption in Highland in 2000. As can be seen, the solar 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 and hydroelectricity made up the (3) ________ amount of energy consumption (20 million tons).

The chart shows the energy consumption in Highland in 2005. As can be seen, the total energy consumption was (1) _____ million tons. Nuclear and hydroelectricity made up the largest amount of this figure (75 million tons). This was followed by the consumption of (2)____________ (50 million tons). Coal made up the (3)_________ amount of energy consumption (45 million tons).
Task 2: Continue your description of the trends in energy consumption in 2005 from the chart:

PRACTISE
Work in pairs to answer the following questions
Was the total energy consumption in 2000 higher or lower than it was in 2005?
2. Was the consumption of Coal in 2005 lower or higher than it was in 2000?
The total energy consumption in 2000 was lower than it was in 2005.
The consumption of Coal in 2005 was lower than it was in 2000.
Work in pairs to answer the following questions
4. How many tons was Nuclear and Hydroelectricity in 2005?
Petroleum consumption in 2005 was lower than it was in 2000.
3. Was Petroleum consumption in 2005 lower or higher than it was in 2000?
It was 75 million tons.
Work in groups to write a paragraph to describe the energy consumption in Highland in 2000 and in 2005.
- The total consumption in 2005 was higher than it was in 2000.
- 75 tons nuclear and hydroelectricity was consumed in 2005. It was higher than it was in 2000.
- The consumption of coal in 2005 was lower than it was in 2000.
- Petroleum consumption in 2005 was lower than it was in 2000.
PRODUCTION
The chart shows the energy consumption in Highland in 2000 and 2005. As can be seen, the total energy consumption in 2005 was 170 million tons. So it was higher than it was in 2000 (117 million tons). In 2005, nuclear and hydroelectricity made up the largest amount of this figure (75 million tons). This was followed by the consumption of petroleum (50 million tons). Both of them were higher than they were in 2000. However, coal decreased the amount of the energy consumption (from 57 million tons in 2000 to 50 million tons).
