The graph shows information about the average number of visitors entering a museum in summer and winter in 2003.

Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant. Write at least 150 words.

Sample 1:

The line graph illustrates how many people, on average, visited a particular UK museum during two seasons in 2005.

Overall, the attendance rate in the summer was generally much higher than that in the winter, with their peak time being at midday. It also appears that the museum had the same opening hours for both seasons, but it closed earlier towards the end of the year.

In the summer, the number of visitors soared/surged from 9 to 12 o’clock in the morning, peaking at approximately 1500 at noon. Subsequently, the museum saw a gradual drop of 700 visitors by 4 p.m., followed by another sharp fall towards 6 p.m. This seemed to be the closing time of the museum, as no visitors were recorded after that time.

The winter season followed a similar pattern, albeit at a lower rate. Despite a slight fall at 11 a.m, there was a considerable rise in visitor numbers between 9 and 12 o’clock, with a high of 600 in the middle of the day. Thereafter, a continual decrease was observed in this attendance figure, and the museum closed its door at 3 o’clock in the afternoon.

Sample 2:

The line chart illustrates how many people went to a British museum in the summer and winter of 2005.

Overall, fewer people went to this museum in the winter than they did in the warmer season. However, during both times of the year, the daily peak time was at midday, although it seems like the building closed earlier in the winter.

In the summer, within the first eleven hours of the day, the head count soared up to around 1300 people and peaked at approximately 1500 people at noon. It then slowly descended by around 700 between 12.00 p.m. and 4.00 p.m., and continued dropping to zero at a more considerable rate towards 6.00 p.m.

On a smaller scale, this pattern was followed by the winter’s figures. The first half of the day witnessed the number of walk-ins climbing gradually to 400, which then fell slightly before making a recovery to its high at 600. Since noon, there were fewer and fewer museum-goers present, setting a consistent drop until the museum was free of any visitors from 3.00 p.m. onwards.
