Model answer
The three pie charts illustrate how many articles from academic journals are read weekly by PhD students and junior lecturers compared to other students at an Australian university.
For example, the overwhelming majority of those studying doctorates read at least twelve articles per week in comparison with the average student. The figures were 80 per cent and twelve per cent respectively.
Furthermore, only five per cent of PhD level students read between one and five articles, whereas the average for all students in this category is a hefty 67 per cent.
Meanwhile, for junior lecturers the pattern appears to be slightly different. Most read six or more articles per week (99 per cent), but out of this total 24 per cent read twelve or more, which is almost a third of the corresponding figure for PhD level students.
It is clear that those students who are researching for a PhD read more articles than either junior lecturers or other students.

Some tips i have observed in terms of laptop memory is always that there are specs such as SDRAM, DDR and so on, that must match up the specifications of the mother board. If the pc's motherboard is reasonably current and there are no main system issues, modernizing the memory space literally takes under a couple of hours. It's among the list of easiest computer upgrade procedures one can think about. Thanks for expressing your ideas.
When I initially commented I clicked the "Notify me when new comments are added" checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get several e-mails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove me from that service? Thank you!
