 A graph and chart sample response

The chart and graph compare the number of Japanese who spent their holidays overseas from 1985 to 1995 with the proportion of them who visited Australia. 

In 1985, only about five million Japanese travelled abroad, after which the number increased steadily. By 1990, the figure had more than doubled to 11 million. Apart from a slight drop the following year, the upward trend continued until the end of the period, when numbers reached over 15 million.

While Australia was the destination for under 2% of Japanese tourists in 1985, this percentage had risen to over 6% by 1994. The proportion grew consistently, apart from a slight fall in 1990 (4.5% to 4%). After reaching its 1994 peak, the percentage declined marginally to 6% in 1995.

Overall, despite the relatively small proportion of Japanese tourists coming to Australia, the increase in the country’s share of the Japanese tourist market corresponded closely with the growth in Japanese tourism overseas generally, with a trebling of both in the ten-year period.

  International tourism has brought enormous benefits to many places. At the same time, there is concern about its impact on local inhabitants and the environment. Do the disadvantages of international tourism outweigh the advantages? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience. Write at least 250 words. The growth of international tourism has undeniably brought significant benefits to various destinations. However, alongside these advantages, there is a growing concern regarding the potential negative impact on local inhabitants and the environment. In my opinion, international tourism leads to the exploitation of local resources. On the other hand, it helps in economic growth and promoting peace. One major concern is the potential exploitation of local resources. Uncontrolled tourism development may result in overcrowding, degradation of natural landscapes, and depletion of resources such as water and energy. Additionally, the
