Free timesurvey was held in several towns of the UK among young people from 16 to 36.They were divided into three age groups. About 1780 people took part in it and they were only allowed to choose one answer to the question “What do you prefer doing in your free time?”. The results are given in the percentage in the chart below.

The numbers turned to be somewhat surprising. We found that the older people get, the more they are fond of sporting activities. There are twice as many fitness fans in the third age group compared to the first one. The amount of people who like eating out was the same for all three groups. As people get older, they spend more time in front of their TVs.The number of those increases by five percent from group to group. Going out in the second group seems to be only six percent more popular than watching TV.

Holidays

Every year my friend and I go somewhere to the South for holidays. The Black Sea is one of the most wonderful places which attracts holiday-makers all over the world. There are many rest-homes, sanatoriums and tourist camps there. But it is also possible to rent a room or a furnished house for a couple of weeks there. Sometimes we place ourselves in a tent on the sea shore enjoying fresh air and the sun all day long. As a rule I make new friends there. In the daytime we play volleyball, tennis, swim in the warm water of the sea and sunbathe. In the evening I like to sit on the beach watching the sea and enjoying the sunset. I`m fond of mountaineering. So I do a lot of climbing together with my friends.

Time passes quickly and soon we have to make our way back. We return home sun burnt and full of impressions.
