Speaking Model Answers

 

1. Do you have any hobbies?

 

So far I have neither met nor known about anyone who does not have a leisure pursuit at all. My hobbies include biking, reading, and advancing my English-language use.

 

2. What do you do in your free time?

 

In my spare time, I enjoy cruising around the city center on my bicycle for fun and exercise. I am also keen on doing different sources of readings to extend my comprehensive knowledge to a higher level every day, and I am interested in any activity that keeps me practicing my English skills as much as possible.

 

3. What hobbies/free-time activities are popular in your country?

 

Based on my observations, recreational activities in Vietnam vary among certain age groups. A majority of adolescents are fond of video games, elite sports, and popular music. Middle-aged individuals, however, tend to hang out with their multiple groups of friends, go to the gym, and travel for their leisure, whereas seniors would rather stay indoors more regularly and enjoy cooking, reading the news, and watching television.

 

4. Is it important to have a hobby?/Why is it important for people to have free-time activities?

 

To have one or more leisure activities is really not an option but, in my belief, a vital element of a meaningful, happy human life. No human beings do not need to chill out after a long period of hard work or concentrated study, and our hobbies are the ultimate choice to balance our personal and professional lives.

 

5. Is it harmful to spend too much time on a hobby?

 

It is true that spending excessive amounts of time on a single favorite activity can be both detrimental and beneficial. Reading, for instance, is a key to success as it greatly contributes to broadening people’s range of knowledge. Nevertheless, if one starts taking an interest in a book, an article, or a magazine and does not seem to stop reading it from the first page all the way to the back cover at a time, he will miss everything else going on throughout the day and might soon end up regretting.

 

6. What free-time activities would you like to try in the future?

 

I have frequently thought of taking up swimming sessions. I realize they would effectively benefit my health and ultimately enhance my overall stamina by increasing my breath holds and strengthening all my muscles.
