How to use survey in a sentence?

  1. Julian Evans-Pritchard:

    The PMIs probably understate the hit to activity last month, the services index remained above the low of 45.2 that it hit last August during the Delta wave. That's probably because the survey was conducted prior to the worst disruptions.

  2. Jack Allen:

    July's rise in industrial production merely offset the declines in the previous two months, so is not the beginning of a stronger upward trend in the sector, the survey evidence points to fairly sluggish growth over the rest of the year.

  3. Michael Irwig:

    Basically, nobody had really done a similar survey before.

  4. Dariush Mozaffarian:

    Looking at the survey results, it's positive that the public recognizes the importance of foods being high in healthy components, nutrients, and part of an important food group and correctly pay less attention to criteria like GMO or organic.

  5. Rajalingam Gunalan:

    Out of every 10 fishermen I have surveyed, 7 to 8 have been complaining of a drastic drop in their daily catch. Once this survey is completed, the government is planning to introduce aquaculture (freshwater fish farming) as a viable alternative livelihood for fishermen here.
