“The bar chart shows fixed broadband subscriptions per 100 people in six countries in 2020.”Model answer
192 wordsP1The bar chart shows the number of fixed broadband subscriptions per 100 people in six countries in 2020.
P2Overall, France and South Korea had the highest subscription rates and were broadly comparable, while India had a dramatically lower rate than all other countries shown. The remaining nations occupied a middle range.
P3France recorded the highest figure at 44 subscriptions per 100 people, with South Korea close behind at 43.6. The USA followed at 37, and China was just below at 35, meaning that these four countries all fell within a range of nine subscriptions per 100 people. Brazil's rate was considerably lower at 16, less than half that of the USA.
P4India's figure, however, stood apart at just 1.7 subscriptions per 100 people, compared with France's rate of approximately 26 times that figure and Brazil's of about 9.4 times as much. This vast gap between India and the rest of the group is the most striking feature of the chart. Among the leading nations, the difference between France and South Korea was negligible, at less than half a subscription per 100 people, suggesting very similar fixed-broadband subscription rates in these two economies.
