decline of the number of smokers from 60% to 45%. For the period

population is over a half. Europe always takes the second place despite
of the reduction from 25% in 1900 to 14% in 2000. For the percentage
of people who live in Africa and Latin America, there was a growth by
10% and 8% respectively in 2000 but they till have a small rate. The

Describing maps

The maps show the developments which took place at the seaside resort
of Templeton between 1990 and 2005.

In 1980, the resort was a much greener residential area with a large
number of tree and individual houses, but during the next 25 years the
resort experienced a number of dramatic changes. The most noticeable is
that all of the trees south-west of the resort were cut down and replaced
by some buildings. Moreover a new supermarket is constructed above.
Only a few trees near the river remainded. Futher developments were the
construction of a airport near the school and below the school, the
woodland was cleared to make way for a factory. Especially, A new
ferry is built at the south-east and the railway is also appended from the
east to west.

Overall, a comparision of the two maps reveals a change from a largely


rural to a mainly urban landscape.
