A Student's Work on Writing Task 1 IELTS

The chart shows the average numbers of hours per day spent on household tasks by both males and females of different age groups in the UK during the period 2000-2001.[because the time period is sometime in the past, we mostly use past tense]

Generally, the length of time both sexes spent on household tasks increased as they got / grew older. It also indicates that women spent more time on household tasks in each age group. [This is a good description of the general trend in the chart!]

The youngest age group of both sexes spend spent under one hour on household tasks. The amount of time increasesd about an hour in later age groups. [be careful with the expression ‘about an hour,” because for females in the age group 25-44, clearly the increase was more than one hour]

In the age group of 25-44, Wwomen spent about twice as much time on household tasks as men did, by the age of 25-44. Then it remained steadily in later age groups, while the amount of time men spent on household task increasesd.
