The table below shows the proportion of different categories of families living in poverty in Australia in 1999. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

A research about the number of families living in poverty in Australia in 1999 was undertook. These families were split into several clusters and counted based on their percentage and number in the same group. The main purpose of this research was to observe their proportion which was described in two forms, percentages and numbers.
Apropos to the table, all households involved in this research were 1,837,000 which projected 11% of families in Australia. The categories of family both single with no children and sole parent were higher than other groups which reached 19% and 21% respectively. This was then followed by family type couple with children by 12%. There was no significant differences among these groups, that are, single aged person (6%), aged couple (4%), and couple with no children (7%).
It should be remarkably noted that the higher percentage did not fully mean the higher their number. For instance, sole parent whose percentage is by 21% (the highest percentage) had the proportion which reached 232,000. On the other hand, the number of couple with no children whose percentage was only 12% was much higher than that of the previous group, that was, 933,000.
To sum up, single or couple did not influence the proportion of poverty. It was probably caused by their circumstances where they live.

Happiness is considered very important in life. Why is it difficult to define? What factors are important in achieving happiness?
Everyone in the world undoubtedly want to be happy. There is an interested discussion about what intimately happiness is. It is because nobody can explain clearly its definition. This writing is going to discuss the definition of happiness and what factors affecting it.
There is an argument that defining happiness is completely incomprehensible. In my point of view, the main reason why people are difficult to define it because of its characteristic, exactly where it is in human’s life. The happiness is entirely about privacy. To find its meaning, people probably have different view. Why their views are dissimilar? Due to extremely personal, people are free to decide what things which bring them to be happy persons. Many people feel pleasure due to their family. This means that family are like a key to achieve happiness.
What people commonly think of how to reach happiness plays an essential part to know factors affecting people’s happiness. Some people probably have a consideration that money is the major factor that provides them happiness. For this reason, people are encouraged to have great job which enables to pay them high salary. With earning much money, how to fulfill their dreams is unquestionably effortless.
Nevertheless, others think that health is the most valuable factor in life. Even though many reach people are able to realize their dream, the fact shows that most of them eventually have to end their life on wheelchair because of illness. For this reason, the latter people prefer to live with healthy life. With healthy body, they have time to smile and enjoy life without any disease destroying their beautiful life.
To sum up, although there are pros and cons about the real happiness, I strongly believe that it is much better if people own both prosperity and health. The combination of them undeniably brings people the ultimate happiness.
