The diagram shows the average hours of unpaid work per week done by people in different categories. 0P29
The diagram informs us that the unpaid work hours for women increase, based on the number of children in their family. However we find there is only a minor change to the unpaid hours per week for men. For married women without children, the average unpaid work hours per week is 30. For married men the unpaid hours spent for activities like childcare, housework and gardening are around 18. Next we compare the unpaid hours for both men and women having between 1 and 2 children. When it comes to women in this category we find their unpaid work increases significantly to over 50 hours per week. However the average hours for men in the same category is unchanged. The last category compares the hours spent by men and women when there are 3 or more children to care for. There is only a slight change in the unpaid work hours when the number of children increase. The hours for women increase to almost 60 hours per week, however there is a slight decrease in the hours for men. There could be many reasons the unpaid work hours for women increase to a higher degree than men. If a married women is a stay at home mom, the more children she has, the more laundry and cleaning there would be. She would spend more time cooking, and caring for the children. However the man would still spend the same amount of time outside the home at work. The diagram does not show the amount of time the men and women spend for work outside the home. The words underlined and in bold, are phrases and words I took directly from the explanation given for the diagram. You should try to incorporate the words used in the explanation of the exam when you give your information. This also keeps you from having to think of so many new words.
