Sample Answer:

The bar graph shows the percentages of city and rural households with the internet access in a European country from 1999 to 2004. Generally speaking, fewer percentages of rural households had the internet connection than that of city people and overall internet accessibility enhanced remarkably over the time.

In 1999, merely 2% rural household in this European country had access to the internet while around 15% city dwellers had this facility. Next year, one out of every 20 rural houses gained this access while almost one-third urban and suburban families were connected to the global internet. After two years, half of the city dwellers gained internet access while it was as small as 15% for rural citizens. Next two years, the percentages of households in rural areas who joined this network increased sharply, from 15% to 35%. The ratio of households in urban and suburban areas with the internet access rose to roughly 55%, a slower extension than that of rural households during the last three years. The ratio of homes, both in cities and rural areas, with access to the internet was quite negligible in 1999 but improved dramatically within next 5 years.
