Возможный ответ.
I am currently working on a project about what draws so many Zetland teenagers towards a future career in IT. To gather some data, I have found the results of an opinion poll conducted among teenagers in Zetland who are interested in this field.
According to the table, 33 per cent of the respondents named a "good salary" as their main motive, while 25 per cent were attracted by the large number of vacancies. Working from home was chosen by 20 per cent of the teenagers.
A good salary is more than four times as popular a reason as constant development, which was selected by only 8 per cent, suggesting that financial benefits currently matter more to young people than long-term learning opportunities do.
A problem that can arise with some IT jobs is long working hours spent sitting in front of a screen, which over time can harm both posture and eyesight. A reasonable solution is to take regular breaks and fit in some physical exercise during the working day.
To conclude, I believe that IT plays an essential role in the modern world, since it drives innovation in almost every industry, and this explains why so many teenagers in Zetland are eager to build a career in this field.

Возможный ответ.
I am currently working on a project about the presents Zetland teenagers most look forward to unwrapping on their birthdays. To collect some data, I have found the results of an opinion poll conducted among teenagers in Zetland about their favourite gifts.
The pie chart shows that "a laptop" was the top choice, named by 25 per cent of the respondents, closely followed by a smartphone with 24 per cent and headphones with 23 per cent. Only 8 per cent preferred a gift certificate.
The three most popular gifts, a laptop, a smartphone and headphones, were together chosen by more than two-thirds of all the respondents, while a laptop was more than three times as popular as a gift certificate.
A problem that can arise with birthday presents is choosing something the person will not actually enjoy or use in the end. A practical way of solving it is to ask a mutual friend or family member for hints about what the person truly needs.
In conclusion, I think the best way to choose a birthday present for a friend is to pay close attention to their hobbies and daily habits throughout the year, rather than relying only on general trends such as the latest gadgets.
