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 the opinion polls (see the table below).
Comment on the data in the table and give your opinion on the subject of the project.
The opinion poll 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.
