[03:28.59]You now have 20 seconds to read questions 17--20
[03:35.54]17.What is the main focus of the survey?
[03:38.88]18.Which group seems to be most active in sports?
[03:40.94]19.Which sport is cited as the most popular one?
[03:42.98]20.What is the woman's marketing strategy?
[03:48.91]W:Sam,
[03:53.77]could you review the results of the survey on leisure sporting activities again?
[04:00.82]We need to plan out our proposal for this Friday's business meeting.
[04:06.99]M:Sure,Mary.
[04:09.94]I've summarized the results in the handout,broken down by consumer age groups
[04:17.10]and sporting activities.
[04:21.33]The survey was administered to 550 men and women
[04:27.60]between the ages of 18 and 55 years old,
[04:33.45]and the results have been compiled in the following age groups:
[04:39.80]18 to 26,27 to 35, 36 to 45,and 46 to 55.
[04:50.14]According to the results,
[04:53.80]the most active group involved in sporting activities
[04:59.76]are those between 18 and 26 years old,
[05:05.50]followed by those 36 to 45 years old. W:Okay.
[05:12.27]M:As far as particular sports are concerned,
[05:17.41]people in these two groups cited jogging as their favorite recreational sport.
[05:25.28]followed by skiing,tennis,swimming,and cycling.
[05:31.02]W:Hmm.Based on what you have said,I think we should consider targeting
[05:38.86]the 18 to 26-year-old-age group more in the future.
[05:45.31]I also feel we should consider expanding our line of athletic shoes,
[05:52.05]Particularly jogging and tennis footware.
[05:57.09]We also have to come up with a more appealing slogan aimed at this age group.
[06:04.43]M:I see what you mean. However,
[06:08.80]when these results are compared with the survey carried out three years ago,
[06:15.25]we can see a growing trend among older consumers--I mean 46 to 55--
[06:24.18]who are becoming more conscious and concerned about staying fit.
[06:30.14]I believe this trend will continue,
[06:34.68]so we should focus on this group instead.
[06:39.33]W:I see your point.
[06:42.78]Well,let's meet again on Wednesday to iron out more of the details of this proposal
[06:50.62]That is the end of Part C.
[06:55.16]You now have 5 minutes
