Model Answer
Pie charts and tables show the number of people living in Australia and also show that residents tend to live in rural or urban areas.
Overall, it appears that the majority of the population is Australian, followed by many other nationals and Britons, and smaller numbers of New Zealanders, Chinese and Dutch. All groups of people mostly live in cities, especially individuals from China.
The pie chart describes that 73% of the Australian population includes Australians. This number is followed by others by 14%, which is double the residents from England recorded at 7%, New Zealand at 3%, Chinese at 2% and Dutch people (Netherlands) only 1%.
Furthermore, with the table, Australians are most likely to live outside of cities, although 80% still live in an urban (city) environment. Similarly, 83% of Dutch people live in cities and 17% in the countryside. UK and New Zealand residents have roughly the same proportions with around 90% in the cities. Finally, the Chinese mainly live in cities (99%). In contrast, only 1% of Chinese live in the countryside while 11% of British and 11% of New Zealanders prefer to live in the countryside
