Read the text about the results of a survey1 of leisure activities among people aged sixteen and thirty. Write down which leisure activities are
mentioned in the text.
Many people think that young people nowadays don’t get enough exercise. But
the survey shows that isn’t true: only 11% say they like playing video games while
28% go for a run or go to the gym at least once a month.
It seems that people still like going to the cinema when they want to watch a
film. 46% say they go to the cinema twice a month, but only 40% watch films online.
There are two activities which everybody – or almost everybody – say they do.
Everyone who took part in the survey says they read a newspaper or magazine and
93% say they go for a walk – but they don’t say if it’s a long walk!
Going to a restaurant was one of the most popular leisure activities, according
to the results of the survey. 64% of people say they regularly eat out.
It seems that many more people like listening to music than playing it. 71% say
they regularly listen to the radio, but only 8% say they can play a musical instrument.

Dear Mark,
Recently I attended a local open-air festival of street music. It took place in my town last weekend. I visited the festival with my friend.
Even though it was rather cold and snowy, we felt warm and comfortable. The music was very nice and we danced most of the time. There we could buy various kinds of fast food, drinks and so on.
I liked the festival, and I wish they made it in summer. It would be super exciting to visit it once again.
Do you like such festivals?
I am looking forward to your letter,
