It is a [well-known|popular|celebrated]fact that holiday time can be spent productively by teenagers. [As|While|During]working on my project about favourite things that are chosen by Russian teenagers most, I [have|have been|am]collected the results of the opinion polls [for|to|on]the subject. The data of the poll are [gifted|performed|presented]in the form of a table. I ['m going|am going|going]to outline the main features the table reflects and [divide|compare|confront]the data.

[As|How|While]it is presented by the table, most adolescents are interested in meeting with friends and relaxing at home—63 % and 62 % [commonly|usually|respectively]. It can also [seeing|be seen|see]that the idea of visiting extra classes [invites|attracts|gets]only a small minority of teenagers.

As the table [suggests|improves|offers], teenagers might also be interested in playing computer games and doing nothing. [Despite|Although|However], these issues are only half as important to teenagers [so|as|how]friends and rest.

[To|In|For]my opinion, the above-mentioned trend might [cause|reason|effect]a significant problem. As not every student considers a holiday as a time when they can revise the material or prepare for final exams. [As a result|Because|Although], many adolescents might not pass exams successfully. I am convinced that the best solution [on|about|to]this problem is to explain to them the importance of this stage in their lives.

[On the one hand|To begin with|In conclusion], I would like [emphasising|to emphasise|emphasise]that the period of graduation from school is a very important life stage. Therefore, we need to [pay|make|offer]attention to teenagers' interests to help them go [along|across|through]this stage successfully.

Imagine that you are doing a project on favourite school subjects among high school students in Zetland. You have found some data on the subject—the results of the opinion polls (see the diagram below).

Comment on the data in the diagram and give your personal opinion on the subject of the project.

Write 200–250 words. Use the following plan:

  • make an opening statement on the subject of the project;
  • select and report 2–3 main facts;
  • make 1–2 comparisons where relevant;
  • outline a problem that can arise with teenagers' preferences and suggest a way of solving it;
  • conclude by giving your opinion on the importance of other subjects.

Now read the sample piece of writing below and choose the correct options to complete the text.

The period of graduation from school is an important [piece|bit|part]of our life. [As|While|During]working on my project about favourite school subjects among Russian teenagers, I [have|have been|am]collected the results of the opinion polls [for|to|on]the subject.

[As|How|While]it is presented by the diagram, a very large proportion of [students|people|children]prefer visiting Programming and Math classes, 73 % and 69 % [commonly|usually|respectively]. It can also [seeing|be seen|see]that only a small minority of teenagers like social studies.

As the diagram [suggests|improves|offers], teenagers also chose PE and Science among the subjects they like. [Despite|Although|However], these issues are not as important to teenagers [so|as|how]IT sphere and Mathematics.

[To|In|For]my opinion, the above-mentioned trend might [cause|reason|effect]a significant problem. Every year more and more graduates want to become programmers or web developers. [As a result|Because|Although], in the nearest future we will have a lack of professionals in other spheres. I am convinced that the best solution [on|about|to]this problem is to increase the popularity of other subjects.

[On the one hand|To begin with|In conclusion], I would like [emphasising|to emphasise|emphasise]that we can only make teenagers [do|doing|to do]something if they see it as an interesting thing.
