Our teacher has asked us to prepare a talk on what young people in

different countries do when they are not at school. Can you help by
writing and explaining what it’s like in your country? What do
young people do at home? Where do they go out and what do they
do there?
Thanks!
Billy

When it comes to going out, we often spend afternoons at the local sports ground doing
athletics or playing basketball or football. OTherwise, we usually meet in the shopping
centre and just hang out together or go and see what’s new in the shops. AS well as that, we
sometimes meet in a cafe to chat, go to the cinema, or go for a walk.
