Conversation Two
W: Sam, could you review the results of the survey on leisure sporting activities again? We need to plan our proposal for tomorrow's meeting.
M: Sure. I've summarized the results in the handout, broken down by consumer age groups and sporting activities. The survey was administered to 550 men and women between the ages of 18 and 55 years old. The results have been compiled in the following age groups: 18 to 26, 27 to 35, 36 to 45, and 46 to 55. According to the results, [23]the most active group involved in sporting activities are those between 18 and 26 years old, followed by those 36 to 45 years old.
W: Okay.
M: As far as particular sports are concerned, people in these two groups cited [24]jogging as their favorite recreational sport followed by skiing, tennis, swimming, and cycling.
W: Hmm. Based on what you've said, I think we should consider targeting the 18 to 26 year-old age group more in the future. I also feel we should consider expanding our line of athletic shoes, particularly jogging and tennis footwear. We also have to come up with a more appealing slogan aimed at this age group.
M: I see what you mean. However, when these results are compared with the survey carried out three years ago, we can see a [25]growing trend among older consumers-those 14, I mean [25]46 to 55-who are becoming more conscious and concerned about staying fit. I believe this trend will continue, so [25]we should focus on this group instead.
W: I see your point. Well, let's meet again on Wednesday to iron out more of the details of this proposal.

Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
23. Which group seems to be most active in sports?
正確答案：B
解析：根據原文，最積極參與體育運動的是18至26歲的人。故答案是B。從選項可以初步猜測題目與數字范圍有關。聽完錄音，可得知對話的主題是一項休閑運動的調查，可進一步猜測與調查中的年齡組別有關。9-17這個年齡組沒有在原文中提到，排除A。B、C和D都提到，最活躍的是18-26組，緊接是36-45組。故排除C和D。
24. Which sport was cited as the third most popular?
正確答案：C
解析：根據原文，調查顯示，人們提到的第三個最受歡迎的運動是網球。故答案是C。四個選項都是體育運動，初步猜測和參與的運動有關。根據原文，四個選項都有被提到，按照受歡迎的程度，第一位是jogging，然后是skiing（這個在選項中沒有出現），tennis、swimming和cycling。
25. What is the man's suggestion on the marketing strategies?
正確答案：B
解析：根據對話，男士提出近年的流行趨勢是老年人健康意識不斷提高，所以建議市場策略應集中在46到55這個年齡段。故答案是B。原形動詞題，一般問建議或打算。猜測題目與調查的結論或要采取的行動有關。女士提到expanding our line of athletic shoes和more appealing slogan，這與A和C的內容相近，但問題問的是男士的建議，故排除A和C。D是利用對話中的fit進行干擾，也可排除。
