72. The mooncake has long been popular among the Chinese communities in many western societies. Of course it first appeared in China many centuries ago, and now it's also extremely popular in countries such as Indonesia and Thailand, but I hadn't actually tasted it as a foreigner until I visited China some years ago. I enjoyed moon cakes so much that since then I've eaten them in many other places, each time being pleasantly surprised by their differences in appearance, ingredients and flavour. Of the traditional types in China, I very much like those filled with meat, yolk or dried fruit, though for me the one that really stands out has nuts inside.

Figures 1 and 2 show us the number of UK university graduates in STEM subjects and the different career choices of maths graduates respectively.

According to Figure 1, significantly more men complete STEM subjects overall than women. In detail, compared with male students, a much larger proportion of female students study science. However, more male students graduate from engineering and maths subjects than female students.

Based on Figure 2, for most maths graduates, 27% of them continue their further study or research. Amongst those who leave academia, the most popular career choice for them is the financial sector (21%), closely followed by those who pursue a career in teaching (20% ). Around 10% of maths graduates are employed in information technology and science. The least non-maths job choice, for example, retail, is only taken up by 7% of them. The remaining 15% of maths graduates work in other fields.

Section B (20 marks)

参考范文：

Before mass tourism made overseas travel available to everyone, people were rather ignorant of the world beyond their homes. For many this changed when they began to travel. They learnt a lot about other cultures, and benefited from personally experiencing them. As a result, they returned home with a much greater appreciation and understanding of other cultures.

However, for others, their views remained unchanged. One reason for this was that they did not actually experience the culture of the country they were visiting. In many cases, this was because they were not interested in it. They simply wanted to go where they could relax and enjoy some nice weather. In other cases, they found the thought of experiencing the culture a frightening prospect, especially if it was very different from their own.

Unfortunately, this is still true today. In some places the main reason many people go abroad is to get a suntan and go swimming in the sea. They show little interest in the local people or their way of life. Consequently, they learn no more about the country they are in than people who stay at home. A recent survey of holidaymakers indicates that 76% did not leave their hotel or resort unless they went on a guided tour.

In my opinion, therefore, travel can help us to appreciate other cultures. However, we need to make an effort to do so, and this involves leaving the comfort of our hotel and going into the community. Unfortunately, it seems that too few people are prepared to do this.
