答案     The pie chart presents information about the causes of land degradation in the world and the table shows how three regions of the world were affected by this problem.
    Over-grazing was the primary cause of the world’s land degradation, with around 35% of land around the world degraded by this. Deforestation and over-cultivation were responsible for 30% and 28% of degradation respectively, while the remaining 7% was attributed to other problems.
    Europe had the largest proportion of unproductive land at 23%, nearly twice the figure for Oceania and more than four times the level of degradation in North America.
    Deforestation was the principal reason for land degradation in Europe (9.8%) and the proportions of land degraded by this cause in other two areas were significantly lower.
    Over-cultivation was another problem in Europe, causing damage to 7.7% of land, compared with 3.3% in North America. In contrast, over-grazing was severe in Oceania, reducing the productivity of 11.3% of land, but the levels of damage were lower in other two regions.
    Overall, over-grazing was the main problem worldwide in terms of land degradation. Europe had a higher proportion of degraded land than other two areas.
