In contrast, the percentage of population in urban areas at the same period in the North America was very high and was approximately 64%.By 2007 almost half of people in the world lived in cities, however, in Africa the percentage was not similiar because only 37% lived in urban area. It was better than in 1950 but still not enough to attain the world trend.

Hello Anuar,
You started fairly well with this description and the first paragraph was ok, but the last paragraph is not a conclusion, it is more detail about the graph, a conclusion is something you gain from the information and a summary gives an overall picture of the situation.
All the best
Bob
