▶ Your Answer :
The line graphs compare the money spent monthly on young people’s sports and the number of children who took part in football, athletics and swimming, which were surveyed over a 6-year period from 2008 to 2014. Overall, the number of the participants increased steadily and there was a significant rise in monthly expenditure of children’s sports. Football was the most popular sport among the three activities, and athletics went up over swimming in the end of the period. In 2008, average 20 pounds was spent on children’s sports, and over 7.5 million of children opted for football, which is the highest level, whereas only just under 2.5 million and about 1 million of them enjoyed swimming and athletics respectively. The level of athletics considerably jumped and it recorded more than swimming from 2.5 million in 2011. By 2014, football was still relished with the highest participants at about 9 million, while swimming retained the lowest 3million children. The more people who enjoyed sports, the larger the average amount of money on sports. In 2014, the expenditure of children’s sports recorded just over 30 pounds. |
