Template IELTS Writing Task 1 Pie Chart Band 7 (dengan Contoh Jawaban)

Pie chart menguji kemampuanmu mendeskripsikan proporsi: berapa bagian dari keseluruhan yang diwakili tiap segmen. Banyak kandidat kehilangan poin karena menyebutkan setiap persentase satu per satu, alih-alih mengelompokkan segmen ke dalam kategori yang bermakna. Template ini memperbaikinya.

Struktur pie chart Band 7

Empat paragraf, 170-190 kata:

Introduction: parafrase soal
Overview: segmen terbesar dan terkecil, jumlah total kategori
Body 1: deskripsi detail segmen-segmen yang lebih besar
Body 2: deskripsi detail segmen-segmen yang lebih kecil (atau perbandingan antara dua pie jika ada)

Langkah 1: Sub-tipe pie chart

Tiga format yang umum:

Satu pie chart: satu potret proporsi
Dua pie chart: perbandingan antar waktu atau kelompok (misalnya 2000 vs 2020)
Beberapa pie chart: tiga perbandingan atau lebih

Beberapa pie memerlukan overview yang berbeda, yang menangkap bagaimana proporsi berubah di antara pie-pie tersebut, bukan sekadar segmen mana yang terbesar.

Langkah 2: Parafrase soal

Asli: "The pie chart shows the percentage of household expenditure on different categories in the UK in 2020."

Hasil parafrase: "The pie chart illustrates the proportion of total spending allocated to various categories by households in the UK during 2020."

Pertukaran sinonim: shows → illustrates, percentage → proportion, expenditure → spending, on different categories → allocated to various categories.

Langkah 3: Tulis overview

Untuk satu pie chart: "Overall, [largest category] accounted for the largest share of household spending, while [smallest category] received the smallest portion. The remaining categories occupied middling positions in roughly equal proportions."

Untuk dua pie chart (misalnya 2000 vs 2020): "Overall, the proportion of spending on [Category X] increased significantly between 2000 and 2020, while [Category Y] declined. [Category Z] remained the largest share in both years."

Langkah 4: Paragraf body 1, segmen yang lebih besar

Kelompokkan 2-3 segmen teratas. Pakai kosakata proporsi:

"Housing represented the largest share of household expenditure at 32%, nearly a third of total spending. Food and groceries followed closely at 28%, meaning the two combined accounted for around 60% of the average UK household budget."

Langkah 5: Paragraf body 2, segmen yang lebih kecil

Kelompokkan segmen sisanya:

"Transport and utilities each consumed roughly 12% of spending, while leisure activities took 8%. The smallest category was savings, accounting for just 5% of household expenditure, a notably low figure."

Soal: Kategori pengeluaran rumah tangga di Inggris, 2020.

The pie chart illustrates the proportion of total spending allocated to various categories by households in the UK during 2020.

Overall, housing accounted for the largest share of household expenditure, while savings received the smallest portion. The remaining categories occupied middling positions, with food and groceries clearly the second-largest expense.

Housing represented the largest share at 32%, nearly a third of total spending. Food and groceries followed closely at 28%, meaning these two categories combined accounted for around 60% of the average UK household budget.

Transport and utilities each consumed roughly 12% of spending, while leisure activities took 8%. The smallest category was savings, accounting for just 5% of household expenditure, a notably low figure that highlights the financial pressure on UK households.
