READING Text «Hobby and Free Time»
Pre-reading task: Before you read the text, discuss the following questions:
What is the most popular hobby nowadays?
What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
Do you prefer spending your free time with your friends or alone? Why?
What would you do if you had more free time?
What is the most popular activity for the young people?
As a rule, in their free time people like to entertain or amuse themselves.
They can arrange a party or go out, for example, go to a disco or some club. Generally, they do it to have fun or to have a good time.
When people have nothing to do they easily get bored. As a rule, boredom is an awful state, which can lead to depression. That is why it is necessary to get yourself occupied.
Nowadays the most common activity to get rid of boredom is surfing the Internet. This mass media offers a lot of opportunities for entertainment. Socializing in social networks is the most popular activity not only for the young but also for the grown-ups. Using the Internet helps you to kill your time browsing, sharing your pictures in Instagram or chatting with «friends». Gossips or «yellow press» (tabloids) do you more harm than good as they make your brainwork in the wrong direction.
Well, sometimes concerned parents try to make their children be occupied all time. That is why schoolchildren don’t have much free time. But if they have, they usually spend it indoors playing computer games or chatting in the net. They can do it for hours.
Some years ago, people had many hobbies. Have a look at the list of hobbies of your parents.
