Exercise 6: Read the text carefully, then answer the questions.
My name’s Susan. I have two favourite hobbies. My first hobby is reading. I started to do it
when I was four years old. The first time I did it, I felt interested. So I kept reading. I enjoy
reading because it can make me relaxed and calm. Moreover, it can give me an imagination, so
I can write books in the future. I can learn the different cultures and customs of other countries
in the world, too.
My second hobby is gardening. I have made a small garden and planted many beds of
flowers. In the spring season, my garden is full of beautiful flowers. I have a separate plot for
vegetables – carrots, potatoes, etc. In the evening, I water the plants and remove the weeds. I
love sitting in my garden and reading my books. It is very pleasant to be there!
