55. Practice Sample answer ielts-fighter.com Regarding the areas that experienced a growth in importance, university education constituted more than one third of the total governmental outgoings in 1980 and the following two decades saw a five- percent increase, with a peak of 45 percent in 1990.

Considering the fees paid for environmental protection, the percentage in 2000 was double that in both previous years shown. With regard to the other three categories, healthcare and workforce-related costs accounted for 14 percent in 1980 before jumping to exactly one fifth ten years later. Meanwhile, by 2000, the government had reduced its allocation of money to this section to only 10 percent. There were gradual decreases in the figures for educating school children and other unnamed services with the former declining from one quarter to 16 percent and the latter from 6% to only a marginal one percent.
