The diagram illustrates how the cutting instruments used during the Stone Age evolved between 1.4 million and 0.8 million years ago.

Overall, it is clear that Tool B is sharper and more regularly shaped than the earlier Tool A.  Over a period of 0.6 million years, the cutting tool also increased in size and effectiveness .

The front view shows that the edges of Tool A are rough, revealing its more earlier stage of development.  Whereas Tool A is comparatively primitive, therefore, the smooth edges of Tool B are clearly more effective as a cutting instrument.

One of the main differences between the tools is shown in the side view diagram.  While Tool A is irregular, in contrast Tool B has a regular, flattened shape.  The sharp edge of Tool B is designed for cutting objects cleanly and easily.  Finally, the back view shows most clearly that Tool A is not only rougher, but is also smaller than Tool B.

It is true that people have different opinions on the importance of sport in contemporary society. While participating in sport is a stimulating and enjoyable leisure pastime in the lives of many people, I would argue that professional sport is also important in both entertainment and business.

On the one hand, sport is certainly a popular leisure activity. For example, in the UK millions of people of all ages go fishing, and it is the most popular pastime in the country. Although this is an excellent way to relax, sport and leisure are also important for health in other ways. It helps participants to get into shape by challenging them to exert themselves to their full physical and mental limits. Therefore, those who believe that sport is only important as a leisure activity have an obvious basis for their views.

On the other hand, I agree with the idea that the importance of sport is more than simply as a healthy and relaxing pastime for two reasons. Firstly, it is a major part of the entertainment industry. Televised football matches are watched by millions of sports fans worldwide and sports coverage of the Olympic Games, for instance,  is enjoyed by a vast audience of armchair TV viewers.  Secondly, sport is a multi-billion dollar business.  Sports merchandising and the endorsement of sporting goods produced by firms like Nike surround us, and youngsters across the world wear t-shirts with the names of their favourite footballers, such as Cristiano Ronaldo.

In conclusion, I believe that it is correct to see sport as playing a role in entertainment and business, in addition to its appeal to those who make the effort to participate in it for leisure.
