Task 1

The graph shows the percentage terms of the variations of domestic access to modern technology in homes in the United Kingdom.

According to the graph,it indicated that the growth of CD players is rising steadily throughout the year from 1996/97 until 2002/03,while home computers are also rising gradually. The CD player had the biggest percentage among all of the other modern technologies,with 60 percent at 1996/97 and about 82 percent at 2002/03. The reason that they are both rising gradually is because there are no advanced technologies such as laptops and thumb drives that can be used outside their home and even in restaurants and stalls.

Whereas since the internet access only started at 1998/99,it showed the least percentage among them all with around 10 percent but rising smoothly because internet access has a lot of advantage and privilege in terms of searching for information and connecting with other faces of the world. Plus,using internet are easier than posting mails to other people or even call them. The fact that internet access count was taken a year after everything else was counted shows that before that time,not many people had the privilege of using it.

The last one is the mobile phones which have the most interesting trend among the other three modern technologies. The mobile phones flunctuated wildly but in an upward trend. The graph also shows that the usage of mobile phone has the highest increase of percentage between the others and it is a fact that it has grown to the extent that the two technologies have merged,that is the mobile phone and internet access because a mobile phone can also be used to access the internet.
