My Day off
When we have time for leisure, we usually need something that can interest and amuse us. There are several ways to do this. In big cities it's often difficult to decide where to go in the evening.
If we want to go out there are a lot of theatres, cinemas and clubs in our country where we can spend our free time. (But in small towns and villages they have no actors of their own. So they invite a group of actors from a big town to show plays.)
People who are fond of music join a musical section where they are taught to play different instruments. Those who like to dance join a dancing section.
People who are interested in sports can join sport sections such as tennis, basket-boll, chess and others. And, of course, all the people use radio or television. They switch on the radio set or TV set and choose the programme they like best of all. People who are interested in sports listen to or watch football and basket-ball matches. Everyone likes to see skating and dancing on the ice.
Some people like music. They listen to concerts of modern and old music, new and old songs and see dances. Television helps us to "visit" different lands, see fish and insects, lakes, rivers and seas. We are shown different countries, cities and people who live there. On TV people could even see both sides of the Moon.
Radio and television extend our knowledge about the world. All that we can do at home. So I think, that ways in which leisure time can be spent are different and interesting!
Questions:
1. How do you spend your leisure? 2. Do you have a lot of time for leisure? 3. Do you like to spend your leisure outdoors or at home? 4. Is it difficult to decide where to go out in evening in big cities? 5. What other ways in which leisure time can be spent do you know?
Vocabulary:
leisure — досуг to switch on — включать insect — насекомое to extend — расширять

Most people in our country work five days a week but students and pupils work six days. They have only one day off. It is Sunday. I like this day very much. You needn't hurry anywhere and you may go wherever you like after your week's work. On this day I wake up later than usual. But sometimes I don't get up till nine or ten o'clock. I read morning newspapers or listen to music. As soon as I get up I air the room, make my bed and do morning exercises. Then I have breakfast, clear away the dishes and wash up. Two more hours for getting ready with my homework, and I am free. |
Большинство людей в нашей стране работают пять дней в неделю, но студенты и школьники учатся шесть дней. Они имеют только один выходной день. Это воскресенье. Я очень люблю этот день. Тебе не нужно никуда спешить и ты можешь идти куда хочешь после рабочей недели. В этот день я просыпаюсь позже, чем обычно. Но иногда я не встаю до девяти или десяти часов. Я читаю или слушаю музыку. Как только я встаю, я проветриваю комнату, убираю свою кровать, и делаю утреннюю зарядку. Затем я завтракаю, убираю и мою посуду. Еще два часа для подготовки моей домашней работы, и я свободен. |

I meet my friends and we discuss our plans together. We may go to the cinema or theatre, to museums and parks. Last Sunday we went to the Botanical Garden. There were many beds of spring flowers there: red, yellow and blue. People in light clothes were walking along the paths. The air was fresh and clean. It was very pleasant to spend time there. In fine weather we also like to be out of town. We find a nice place somewhere in the forest or on the bank of the river. We lie in the sun, play different games and swim. In winter my friends and I often go to the skating-rink. Skating is my favourite kind of sport, but I like to ski too. |
Я встречаюсь со своими друзьями, и мы вместе обсуждаем наши планы. Мы можем пойти в кино или театр, в музеи и парки. В прошлое воскресенье мы пошли в Ботанический сад. Там было много клумб с весенними цветами: красными, желтыми и синими. Люди в легкой одежде шли по дорожкам. Воздух был свежий и чистый. Было очень приятно провести там время. В хорошую погоду мы также любим ездить за город. Мы находим хорошее место где-нибудь в лесу или на берегу реки. Мы загораем, играем в разные игры и плаваем. Зимой я и мои друзья часто ходим на каток. Катание на коньках — мой любимый вид спорта, но я также люблю ходить на лыжах |

When the weather is bad my friends come to my place. We listen to music or go to the cinema. We like films about the life of the youth abroad. On the way home we usually discuss the films we've seen. In the evening all the members of our family get together. We have our supper, make plans for tomorrow, watch TV or read books. Reading is my hobby. Sometimes we receive guests at our place or go for a walk. I enjoy my days off very much. |
Когда погода плохая, мои друзья приходят ко мне. Мы слушаем музыку или идем в кино. Мы любим фильмы о жизни молодежи за границей. По пути домой мы обычно обсуждаем фильмы, которые мы смотрели. Вечером собирается вся наша семья. Мы ужинаем, составляем планы на завтра, смотрим телевизор или читаем книги. Чтение — мое хобби. Иногда мы принимаем гостей у себя дома или выходим на прогулку. Мне очень нравятся мои выходные дни. |
