Текст из эпизода
A hobby is something you enjoy doing in your free time. It's something you do for pleasure, not for work. Do you have a hobby? Maybe you like reading, or maybe you love to paint pictures. Gardening is another popular hobby. Or maybe you enjoy playing sports, like swimming or basketball. Let’s look at three popular hobbies: reading, painting, and gardening.
First, let's talk about reading. Reading is a hobby that you can do anywhere. You can learn new things, and you can meet new people through books. You can read fiction, like stories, or non-fiction, like books about animals or history. It's a relaxing way to spend your time.
Next, let's talk about painting. Painting is a creative hobby. You can use different colors and brushes to create beautiful pictures. Some people paint with watercolors, while others use oil paints or even just pencils. You don’t need to be a professional artist to enjoy painting. You can paint landscapes, portraits, or even abstract art. It's a great way to express yourself.
Now, let's think about gardening. Gardening is another popular hobby. In gardening, you grow plants, flowers, or even vegetables. It's a good way to connect with nature. You can grow beautiful flowers, or maybe some tomatoes or other fruits and vegetables. It's a very satisfying hobby.
These are just a few examples of hobbies. There are many other hobbies. Maybe you like collecting stamps or coins. Maybe you like playing music. Maybe you like cooking. The important thing is to find something you enjoy doing in your free time. It's a great way to relax and have fun!
