答案     The table illustrates how money was spent on three different categories of items in five countries in 2002.
    The percentage of expenditure on food, drinks, tobacco was the highest for all the countries. Turkish people spent the highest (32.14%), which was followed by Ireland with 28.91%. Italians, the Spanish and Swedes spent similar proportions of their money on such items, among which Sweden’s percentage was the lowest (15.77%). The gap between these five countries was considerable, when we see the percentage of Sweden was about half that of Turkey.
    The percentages of money spent on clothing and footwear were similar across these five countries, ranging between 5% and 10%, with Italy the most (9%) and Sweden the least (5.4%). The rest clustered above 6%, but less than 7%.
    Compared with the two categories already analysed, the consumer expenditure on leisure/education was noticeably lower, especially Spain with a percentage of less than 2%. Comparatively, the Turkish spent the highest percentage of their money on leisure and education, but still lower than 5%.
    Overall, the five countries had very close spending habits. Food, drinks and tobacco had the highest value, while leisure and education had the least.
