Task 38
Imagine that you are doing a project on why Zetland teenagers start fitness programmes. You have found some data on the subject – the results of a survey (see the table below).
Comment on the survey data and give your opinion on the subject of the project.
The survey question:
Why did you decide to start a fitness programme?
Reasons | Number of respondents (%) |
---|---|
to improve self-image | 27 |
to lose weight | 25 |
to make new friends | 20 |
to reduce mental stress | 15 |
to tone muscles | 13 |
Write 200-250 words.
Use the following plan:
– make an opening statement on the subject of the project;
– select and report 2–3 facts;
– make 1–2 comparisons where relevant and give your comments;
– outline a problem that can arise with some fitness programmes and suggest a way of solving it;
– conclude by giving and explaining your opinion on the importance of physical fitness for teenagers.
