The graph illustrates the quantities of goods transported in the United Kingdom by four different modes of transport between the time period of 1974 and 2002. Over this span of 28 years, the quantities of goods transported by road, water and pipeline have all increased while the quantity transported by rail has remained almost constant at about 40 million tonnes.

The largest quantity of goods transported both in 1974 and 2002 was by road (70 million tonnes and 98 million tonners respectively) while the lowest both in 1974 and 2002 was by pipeline (about 5 million tonnes and 22 million tonnes respectively). The amount of goods transported by water was constant from 1974 to 1978, where it showed an exponential growth, rising to almost 60 million tonnes after which it plateaued for about 20 years before starting to rise gradually again.

The amount of goods transported by rail is almost constant at 40 million tonnes in 1974 and 2002, with decreases in quantity in between the years. It is also interesting

to note that almost all showed a decease in 1994 in amount of goods transported except for the pipeline, which actually peaked in that year.

In conclusion the road remains the most popular method of transporting goods in the UK while water and pipelines are becoming increasingly used, have not become more popular as a method of transport.

图表显示了1974年至2002年期间，英国通过四种不同运输方式运输的货物数量。在这28年的时间里，公路、水和管道运输的货物数量都有所增加，而铁路运输的货物数量几乎保持在4000万吨左右。

1974年和2002年运输的货物数量最多的是公路运输（分别为7000万吨和9800万吨），而1974年和2002年运输的货物数量最少的是管道运输（分别约为500万吨和2200万吨）。从1974年到1978年，水路运输的货物量保持不变，呈指数级增长，增至近6000万吨，此后约20年停滞不前，然后开始逐渐回升。

1974年和2002年，铁路运输的货物量几乎保持不变，为4000万吨，其间数量有所减少。这也很有趣

值得注意的是，除管道运输外，几乎所有运输量在1994年都有所下降，管道运输量在那一年达到峰值。

总之，道路仍然是英国最流行的货物运输方式，而水和管道的使用越来越多，作为一种运输方式，还没有变得越来越流行。
