The diagram details the process by which carbonated drinks are produced. Looking from an overall perspective, it is readily apparent that this 5 stage man-made process is comprised of the filtering of raw water and addition of carbon dioxide in the early steps, mixing with additional ingredients in the middle, and finally packaging it off to be sold.

At the beginning, raw water is cleaned by passing through a filter before water softener and chemicals are added. The clean water is then pumped into a heater and is eventually sent through a cooling pipe to the pivotal stage where carbon dioxide is introduced to create the carbonated effect.

From there, the carbonated water is mixed with colouring, syrup and flavours and filtered again prior to bottling and canning. The finished drinks are then boxed up and sent to supermarkets for retail.

Hi could someone help me evaluate.

The diagram shows the process of producing carbonated drinks.

Overall, producing of carbonated drinks consist of 5 stages, which are water cleaning, heating evaporation and carbonation, mixing, filtering and filling and packaging.

First of all, raw water is filtered and cleaned by adding water softener and chemicals, then it will go through a pump to stage 2. In stage 2, water are evaporated by electric heaters, and sent through a cooling pipe for the reaction, carbonation, by carbon dioxide to produce carbonated water. Once done, carbonated water will pass a pipe flow to mixing tank, where the flavouring done, so at this stage colouring, syrup and flavour will be added.

From there, the carbonated water goes through a filter again and be filling into either bottles or cans. Finally, the cans and bottles are boxed up separately and sent to supermarket by truck for retail.

Overview: The line graph provides information about changes in price of three different food product groups in the USA from 1979 to 2009.

Paragraph 2: (1) Talk about the overall picture. Give a gist of the graph.

Paragraph 3: (1) Talk about price changes. Give figures.

Paragraph 4: (1) Talk about price changes. Give figures.

The line graph provides information about changes in the price of three different food product groups in the USA  from 1979 to 2009 and the overall trend in the consumer price index over these 30 years.

Overall , it is clear that prices increased for the three food product groups, despite fluctuations . At a glance , an increase in the prices for fresh fruits and vegetables was significantly higher than the rise in the general consumer price index.

All the lines on the graph have the same starting figure in 1979. Over the period , the consumer price index rose steadily from around 60 in 1979 to over 200 in 2009. Prices for sugar and sweets and carbonated drinks showed similar trends . Although their prices also rose , they were consistently below the consumer price index average after 1987. After many minor fluctuations , the number for sugar and sweets was 200 on the graph in 2009, higher than the final figure for carbonated drinks at 150.

Prices rose sharply for fresh fruits and vegetables, particularly after 1989. From the same figure of about 60 at the start of the period, the prices finished at roughly 330 on the index in 2009.

Model Answer

The flow chart shows how canned and bottled water is made. In general, there are about 15 distinct stages in this linear process which can further be grouped into 5 main sets: cleaning, carbonation, mixing, filling, and packaging.

At the first phase in the process, raw water from a tap is sent to a pump, being filtered, softened, and chemically treated along the way. The pump then channels the water to electric heaters, from where it is directed to a large tank of carbonation via a cooling pipe.

Once carbonated, the water is directed to a mixing tank with the use of a long pipe. In this tank, two phases happen simultaneously, which are adding additives like coloring, syrup and flavor to the water and mixing the liquid with a propeller rotating in a counter clockwise direction. Following this, the liquid is filtered again before being either bottled or canned. Finally, the drinks are boxed and readied to be dispatched to supermarkets for consumption.
