Leisure time

Hello! My name’s Johny. I’m furteen years old and I live in Syney, Australia.

I just want to talk about how my friends and I spend our free time. My best friends are Tom and David. They are in the same class as me.

Teenagers aften complain they’re bored and have nothing to do. I can’t understand them. I’m never bored.

If the weather is nice, we go for a walk or we ride our bikes. All of us love rollerblading. We often play football, basketball or cricket in the park and when it is rainy, we go to the sports center. Here we usually play table tennis or go swimming.

If you play a musical instrument it’s a good fun! I play the guitar and practise a lot.

At home I usually listen to music or read magazines and books. Of course, as other teenagers I often go on the Internet or play computer games – but not always! It’s a pity that a lot of teenagers live their lives on several public sites like Facebook or Twitter! They had better make real friends!

In the evenings I sometimes watch TV. I often invite my friends over for dinner or a cup of tea and we play chess or cards.

At the weekend we go hiking, fishing or sometimes we go to the cinema. We like comedies.

The ancient town of Hoi An lies on the Thu Bon River, 30 km south of Da Nang. It was formerly a major trading center in Southeast Asia between the 16th and 17th centuries. Hoi An is famous for its old temples, pagodas, small tile-roofed houses and narrow streets. All the houses were made of wood and their pillars were carved with ornamental designs.

All visitors to Hoi An are recommended a visit to the Assembly Hall of Cantonese Chinese Congregation. This house was built in 1855 and still keeps many precious objects that belonged to the Chinese community of Hoi An. Another attractive address to tourists is Tan Ky House, which was constructed two centuries ago as a house of a Vietnamese merchant. The house now looks almost exactly as it did in the early 19th century.

In recent years, Hoi An has become a popular tourist destination in Vietnam. In 1999, it was certified by UNESCO as a World Cultural Heritage Site.
