【正确答案】

Provided is a pie diagram, outlining the average way how foreign students in Paris spend their money during a week. According to the statistical information, the cost is unevenly distributed among the six items.

It is apparent from the supplied information that the cost of living (rent and food) is the largest expenditure, which is 100 euro. The second largest expenditure is school fees that cost students almost the same amount of money as living, which is 90 euro. The rest spending of the whole sum covered the cost on 4 items, with 30 euro for entertainment, 25 euro for underground transportation, 20 euro for clothing, and 20 euro for study materials respectively. Drawing on the above discussions, it can be seen obviously that the cost is unevenly distributed among the six items. Another apparent feature is that students spend more on life than on study because the cost on the items relevant to life goes higher than that on those items directly pertaining to study.

If you ask the reason why there is such a distribution, which is perhaps because foreign students are curious about the world around them and they want to enjoy a colorful and different life there compared with that at home. What’s more, nowadays, with the popularity of materialism and sense of comparison which exert deeper influence on youngsters, there is no doubt that students will spend much on life. However, what they should remember is that their mission is to work hard and broaden their horizon abroad so that they will live up to their parents and themselves.
