• Jane takes a ski lift to the top of a mountain

-- Here, the graph would be sloping upwards

• She gets off the ski lift and decies to get some hot chocolate

-- Here, the graph would be flat since she is waiting and having hot chocolate

• Jane then starts her adventure down the mountain slope

-- This part of the graph is sloping downwards

• Jane falls and stops to rest for a few minutes

-- Here, the graph is flat becaue Jane is resting

• ...before continuing down the ski slope

-- This part is sloping downwards

So, the graph's shape would be:

Sloping Upwards

Flat

Sloping Downwards

Flat

Again, sloping downwards
