Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant. Write at least 150 words. The graph and table shows information about global water use and water consumption in Brazil and Congo. The account of water use by agriculture was the highest, rising from around 500 Km3 in 1900 to over 3000 Km3 in 2000 and saw a constant increase throughout this period. There was a similar figuer for industrial and domestic water use in 1900 (under 100 Km3) and it held on this level until 1950, before the account of industrial use rose to over 1000 Km3 in 2000, which doubled the account of domestic water use in that year (around 500 Km3). The table shows that the figure for water consumption of each person in Brazil was fifty-fold as much as that in Congo( 359 m2 and 8 m2 respectively ), although Congo had far lower account of population(5.2 million) and irrigated land(100 Km2) while Brazil had a 176 million population and 26,500 Km2 irrigated land in 2000. Overall, water was mainly used by agriculture in the last centry(1900-2000), while the figure for domestic use was the lowest, although it saw an upward trend in this period and the account of water consumption of Brazilian was much higher than that of the residents of Congo in 2000.

This is excellent English writing! Your use of vocabulary and sentence structure is also really great! Some of the corrections I made were not necessarily incorrect, but changed to make your writing flow a little better. 

A note: the word "account" is usually used as a record of something such as "an account of the meetings". It can also be used as a verb: to give an explanation for something, "she accounted for the missing papers". In contrast, the word "ammount" reffers to how much or how many.

Does this help? I may have misunderstood your use of the word, I appologize if so.

Overall, this is really great writing, good job!
