Page 16 Reading Exercise 1 What do you do in your FREE TIME? OK, we know you all like watching TV and playing computer games, but we want to know some of the other things you do when you've got some free time. Write and let us know. Hermione I love cats! I like watching cat videos on YouTube every day. I love taking photos of them, too, cats that I see when I'm outside - I try to get photos of lots of different kinds. And I collect things with cats on them - you know, cards or notebooks or T-shirts, things like that. But we can't have cats at home because my dad can't stand them! Andy I can't stand having nothing to do - for example, when I wait for the bus or in the queue at the fast food place - so I always have my puzzle app on my mobile. Sometimes it's Sudoku, sometimes a crossword or different word game, but it doesn't matter - I just love doing puzzles. And it's great because I never get bored. Natalie I'm usually busy, but occasionally I've got a bit of free time, especially in the evening after I do my homework. My favourite thing is looking at maps online. I like using 'street view' and I imagine myself walking in a street somewhere. My dream is to go to New York, so I often 'walk' in the streets there. I try and visit a different place in the world at least once a week. Lucy I don't really like sport - I hate running and doing exercise and all that - but I'm crazy about the New Zealand rugby team, the All Blacks. Its because my uncle and aunt live there and they love rugby, so I watch the games and collect anything I can about them! I have a book that I put photos and newspaper articles in. Once a week my uncle and I talk on the internet about the All Blacks - I love that!
