The table and chart below show the time spent at leisure and household activities in Britain. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.
The given bar chart and table compare how much time males and females spend on various
household activities every day with the recreational activities in Britain.
It is noticeable that except for repair work, women do more household work than men. On
an average, women spend about 75 minutes on cooking and washing, which is more than
double the time spent by men on the same activity. Shopping and doing the laundry are
other two most important activities for housewives, which take 35 and 30 minutes per day
respectively, whereas men are unwilling to do these chores. Men spend approximately 19
minutes per day on repair work, which is surprisingly more than double the time spent by
women on the same work.

given activities, with TV, video and radio being the most popular and sports taking away the
least of the leisure time. About two hours per day are spent on TV, video and radio, and
