Nowadays more and more teens start using social network VK.

I am currently working on a project, which is aimed at finding out why the social network VK is so popular among teenagers in Zetland. I have found a pie chart with some results of a relevant survey taken among teenagers in Zetland. As part of my project, I am going to analyse the statistics and present my findings.

Overall, the data in the table show that, answering the question «Why do you spend time in VK?», the majority of respondents, 40%, choose the option «Most classmates use», while «Easy to use» accounts for 19%. «Homework answers» occupies the third position with only 18%.

Interestingly, the percentage of those who refer to their classmates, 40%, is more than 4 time as high as the percentage of those who find the VK content interesting. I suppose such substantial difference mirrors teens’ attitude to the question. They value communication more than searching fun.

It goes without saying that social media are becoming more and more popular, but there may be some problems with using VK, too. Personal data theft or scamming can become an obstacle to easy communication. In my opinion, the best solution to this problem is to change your password often and use secure software.

In conclusion, I am sure, VK is very important for teens because they find there whatever they need – friends, information, and entertainment. Moreover, VK is developing very quickly now and becoming one of the leading social media in its area.

Imagine that you are doing a project on what people think about natural population growth in Zetland. You have found some data on the subject (see the table below).

Comment on the survey data and give your opinion on the subject of the project.

The survey question:

How do you consider population growth in Zetland?

Write 200—250 words.

Use the following plan:

– make an opening statement on the subject of the project;

– select and report 2—3 facts;

– make 1—2 comparisons where relevant and give your comments;

– outline a problem that can arise with natural population growth in a country and suggest a way of solving it;

– conclude by giving and explaining your opinion on the importance of population growth.

Nowadays, the population of the world is increasing rapidly. I am currently working on a project, which is aimed at finding out on what people think about natural population growth in Zetland. I have found a table with some results of a relevant survey taken among people in Zetland. As part of my project, I am going to analyse the statistics and present my findings.

Overall, the figures in the table show that, answering the question «How do you consider population growth in Zetland?», the majority of the respondents, 49%, choose the option «Good», while «Necessary» is not so popular, 27%. Only 19% opt for «Bad».

Interestingly, the percentage of those who consider population growth as good, 31%, is almost 7 times as high as the percentage of those who finds it dangerous, 8%. In my opinion, this substantial difference mirrors people’s attitude to the question. Having children is always good, unlike loneliness and childlessness.
