IELTS Academic Task 1 The line graph demonstrates how the crime situation in three different areas of Panama City had changed in the span of time from 2010 to 2019. The biggest change is represented by a burglary line starting from approximately 3400 incidents in 2010, which reached its peak at 3700 in 2011 and after that sharply dropped to the number of 1000 in 2015. From 2016 to 2019 there were no big changes. The line depicting the number of car theft incidents fluctuates during the given period of time, reaching the lowest point about 2000 incidents in 2013. However, comparing the years 2010 and 2019 there is no real improvement: the line gets to the mark near 2700 incidents. The number of robbery incidents initially was the lowest: about 700 cases in 2010 and over the span of time it was quite steady. It peaked in 2012 at approximately 900 and the lowest point in 2015 when there were 500 incidents.

Weather The weather in Russia is not what you like to talk about, it is more like a prolonged complaint, though it depends on a region, of course, because the weather in different regions is different whatever it may sound like. We're lucky to have 4 full seasons that give us some diversity; however, it doesn't sound that good when you realize that 6 months of the whole year is winter. And if some people like winter, well, I'm not one of them. It's bitterly cold most of the time, the temperature varies from -20C to -30C. There are blizzards sometimes that just blow you away or cover the whole way to work with snow so you need to become a mole and make a way under it or waste a lot of time to find a new path. The road can also freeze over so you will skate it like a snowboarder or a skater, choose the one you prefer. So, the only way not to freeze to the bone is to make a really hot mulled wine. Lots of it. But after 6 month of a frozen hell a really good season comes, it's spring, one of my favorites, and I would say it starts in April. We can divide spring into two parts: April and May. April is moody, it can be cool and fresh or mild and muggy. May is much warmer, the temperature can rise till +18-20C. It is sunny most of the time, but it starts to bucket down in the middle of a month. The streets are literally flooded so prepare to be soaked through pretty often. Hot mulled wine comes to the rescue again. Summer is wonderful from the middle of June to the middle of August. This period can be called summer. It is hot, it is +25-30C, it is clear, sometimes boiling, sometimes blistering and the sky is blue. Roses are red, violets are blue, trees are green, people are also red and they sweat like pigs but it isn’t a problem because we all love summer. Finally, it’s time for autumn. It starts in the end of August and lasts till the middle of October. It begins really stunning. The weather is rather warm and mild. Everything turns red and gold. In the end of September, the wind starts howling making a sign you need to get an umbrella because it’s going to pour. Thanks to that, mornings are really foggy but it looks quite mysterious and beautiful. Hot mulled wine because why not.
