The diagram shows how sports shoes are made. Write a summary of the information. Select and report the main features.
SAMPLE ANSWER
From design to display in a retail outlet, the process of making a sports shoe takes 18 months. Numbers of different people are involved in several locations.
Firstly, a shoe is designed on a computer.
Then, three basic shoe parts are collected by a factory. The leather has already been ordered from a tannery or the fabric from a textile mill. The rubber has been sourced from elsewhere, and two pieces pressed together into a sole.
Inside the factory, the leather is cut, and the uppers are sown. The tops and bottoms are glued together and sent for lacing. Pairs of shoes are then put into boxes; 12 boxes go into one carton. The cartons are moved to a warehouse.
From the warehouse, the finished product is sent either directly to a shop for sale or onto a container ship for export. One container can hold up to 5500 pairs of shoes.
