 **Sample answer:
 The line graph shows the urban and rural population in Viet Nam from 1960 to 2020. 
 Overall, the urban population increased while the rural population decreased.
 In 1960, most Vietnamese people lived in rural areas. However, from 1960 to 1980, the 
 percentage of the rural population fell slightly to 81 per cent. Then the figure 
 remained stable for the next ten years. From 1990 to 2000, the proportion of the 
 population living in rural areas continued to decrease gradually. In 2020, the rural 
 population was only 63 per cent of the total population of Viet Nam.
 By contrast, the urban population rose throughout the same period. In 1960, the 
 percentage of the city population was just around 15 per cent. The figure went up 
 slightly in 1980 and remained stable until 1990 when less than 20 per cent of the 
 population lived in urban areas. Since 1990, the proportion of the urban population 
 has increased gradually and in 2020, it reached 37 per cent of the total population. CONSOLIDATION
