    PART 2: 3-4 MINUTE SPEECH

    SAMPLE ANSWER

     I believe/For me/ In my opinion, the leisure activity I like doing in my free time is reading books or watching movies or listen to
    music. I often do it on weekends or when I have no classes. The equipment or devices I need to use are cellphones., laptops,
    books and whatnot. I like these kinds of hobbies because they help me clear my mind and distress from the pressures of
    school works. Also, I get to enjoy alone time while learning new words. Listening music gives me so many emotions and can
    help me relax and imagine the wonderful time I have in the world and sometimes, the lyrics of the music hit me so hard
    especially when I am sad or happy. To sum up, we all have our own ways to enjoy our free time but for me – these are the
    best.
