Task1 [我的练笔]

As the first chart shows, the number of Japanese tourists traveling abroad between 1985 and 1995 mounted gradually as a whole. It boomed from approximately 5million in 1985 to nearly 11million in 1990. In 1991, it lessened a little but still over 10million. Then it began to surge from almost 12million in 1992 to circa 15million in 1995.

In the second chart, the trend of Australia’s share of Japan’s tourist market can be categorized into four stages. It surged from 2% in 1985 to a little below 5% in 1988 and ebbed to almost but still over 4% in 1989. From 1989 to 1993 we can witness a medium boost and reached a peak at over 6%. In1994it subsided to 6%.
