The table below shows the monthly expenditure of an average Australian family in 1991 and 2001.
Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
The statistic illustrates the monthly expense of an ordinary household in Australia over a decade period from 1991. Figures were measured in Australia Dollar ($).
Overall, the total expenditure of each family every month witnessed a marginal increase throughout the surveyed period, of which Australian spent the most of their money on non-necessary products and services but the least on clothing. Among six measured categories, only the expense of wearable and transportation dropped during the decade.
To be more specific, the sum cost spent by each family in Australia slightly increased from $675 to $715 between 1991 and 2001. The largest growth fall to the category of electricity and water, for which the expenditure went up from $75 to %120, representing a 60% growth. By comparison, food and housing both rose the smallest amount by $5, reaching %160 and $100 respectively in 2001. The spending of non-essential products and services also demonstrated a growth, rising from $250 to %270.
The two items that bucked the upward trend illustrated above were clothing and transport. The expense of eatable decreased by one-third from $30 to $20 over the decade. Similarly, transportation also declined its spending to $45 in 2001, with a reduction of about 35% when compared with the 1991 figure.

flaws:
1. Australian spent the most of their money on non-necessary products and services
Australians spent the most of their money on non-necessary products and services //what are 'non-necessary products and services'? should be exactly: 'non-essential goods and services'. They are greatly different. in task I, we don't need to paraphrase the categories.
same issues here:
only the expense of wearable and transportation
should be:
only the expense of clothing and transportation
2. from $75 to %120,
from $75 to $120,
reaching %160 and $100 respectively in 2001.
reaching $160 and $100 respectively in 2001.
3. you have issues on summary. the summary and body are somehow duplicated, look:
Overall, the total expenditure of each family every month witnessed a marginal increase throughout the surveyed period,
To be more specific, the sum cost spent by each family in Australia slightly increased from $675 to $715 between 1991 and 2001.
better summary:
In general, Australian household spending was high in 2001 than in 1991 but the difference was not significant (AUD $715 per month and AUD $675 per month respectively). Food and “other goods and services” were the two biggest items of expenditure. Altogether, they accounted for more than half of the total household spending. By comparison, Australians spent little on dressing up.
4. don't need math, like:
representing a 60% growth
with a reduction of about 35%
the examiners are poor at math. Just say numbers/percentages according to the graphs. or use simple math: like: double, triple, twice, half, one third... which are very obvious.
