IELTS writing practice: task1 (Reference: https://www.ielts-exam.net/academic_writing_samples_task_1/89/) The bar chart illustrates how much time each people spend for unpaid works, such as childcare, house chores, and gardening, per week in 3 different conditions. Overall, compared to women, men are less likely to take these house works over all categories. According to the graph, it can be said that married women spend much more time for unpaid works rather than men. For example, among families who do not have their own children, women use 30 hours per week for unpaid works at home whereas men spend less than 20 hours for these works. The gap of the time spent for unpaid works between women and men become greatly bigger if they have their own children. If parents have 1-2 children, women are likely to spend over 50 hours per week for childcare and housework even though there is no difference in men. Surprisingly , although mothers who have more than 3 children have to kill their time for nearly 55 hours, the husbands spend less time to help house chores. In conclusion, as the number of children is more increasing, the gap of time spent for activities at home between sexes is much expanding.
