Hobby can be any type of activity, which people do during their leisure time. Most people choose a hobby for relaxation, pleasure, or for development of new interests. People of almost any age can enjoy hobbies. A hobby offers a way to relax after periods of hard work. Almost any kind of leasure activity can become a hobby. Most hobbies are divided into four general categories, which may overlap. They are the arts, collecting, handicrafts, games and sports.
There are such art forms, as dancing, drama, painting, graphic arts, and music. Each art form has many possibilities for a hobby. For example, music may include singing, playing an instrument, collecting records and tapes, learning ballet, or attending concerts or operas. Painting offers the hobbyist a wide choice of materials, such as oil paints or water colours.
Collecting is probably the most widespread kind of hobby, because almost any thing can be collected. Stamps and coins are the most popular items. Hobbyists also collect such things as autographs, books, dolls, buttons, etc.
Handicrafts attract a hobbyist who can work skilfully with their hands. Many of them are engaged in needlework activities, crocheting, knitting, and sewing. Some use kits to make model aeroplanes, boats, and trains. Other handicrafts include ceramics, metalworking, jewellery making, etc.
Games and sports are popular with many hobbyists who enjoy competition, physical activity, and exercise. Thousands of hobbyists take part in sports, such as bowling, fishing, mountain climbing, skiing, and tennis. Popular indoor games include card games, chess. Nowadays, electronics-related hobbies are becoming increasingly popular. Many people, especially children, play computer games.
Have you ever felt ill after you've eaten something? Yes? Then you've probably had food poisoning. Food poisoning is an illness which you can get when you eat food that contains bacteria, viruses or parasites, which enter the stomach and intestines. This is called a foodborne illness. Common symptoms of foodborne illnesses are diarrhoea, vomiting, headaches and fever.
The two most common foodborne illnesses are campylobacter and salmonella. Both of these are bacterial foodborne illnesses and we sometimes find them in raw (uncooked) meat (especially chicken and turkey), milk, eggs and unclean water.
You can get food poisoning from food which has not been cooked properly or because of cross-contamination. This is when bacteria spread between different foods,
surfaces or kitchen equipment. For example, when you prepare raw chicken on a surface and don't clean it before using the same surface for other food like salad or cooked meat. Another danger is when you keep raw meat above other food in a fridge and liquid from the raw meat falls on to the food below.
