Of course, many people prefer more social activities, for example, hanging out with

當然，也有不少人喜歡社交活動，例如：和朋友出去玩、

和家人相處、或出門購物。 您可能也很喜歡一些

Or maybe you like to do something more creative, like taking photos, painting, or writing stories

創造型的活動，像是：拍照、畫畫、寫小說、及寫網誌等。

or writing a blog.

What about you?

"您呢？" 您喜歡怎樣的休閒活動呢？ 讓我們談談該如何敘述

What kind of free time activities do you prefer?

Let's look at how you can talk about free time activities and hobbies which you like.

您所喜愛的休閒娛樂吧。

Part two: what do you like doing?

第二部份：您喜歡做些什麼？ "我有空時，我喜歡做_____" 這邊可以加入哪些活動呢？

In my free time, I like . . . What could you say here?

"In my free time, I like playing basketball."

"空暇時，我喜歡打籃球" "空閒時，我喜歡和我的家人一起放鬆"

"In my free time, I like relaxing with my family."

"空暇時，我喜歡閱讀" 您有發現同樣的句型嗎？

"In my free time, I like reading books."

Can you see a pattern here?

In every sentence, after 'like,' we use a verb plus -ing.

每句話都在 like 後會加入一個動詞及ing。嘗試自己造一個句子看看吧！ 您空閒時

Can you make a sentence?

What do you like doing in your free time?

喜歡做些什麼呢？ 然而，只使用like 似乎有點重複且單調。那麼還有

But just using 'like' can be repetitive and boring.

So what other verbs can you use?

哪些動詞是可以用的呢？

Well, you could use verbs like 'love', 'enjoy', or 'hate'.

其實，您可以使用這些動詞，如：love（喜愛）, enjoy（享受）, 及hate（討厭）. 舉個例子：我喜愛游泳

For example: "I love going swimming."

"I enjoy watching TV."

我享受看電視、我討厭購物。您有發現類似的句型嗎？

"I hate going shopping."

Can you see the same pattern?

After all of these verbs, you need to use a verb with -ing.

在這些動詞後面必須加入ing。此外您可以加入really, sometimes

You can also add words like 'really', 'sometimes', or 'absolutely', to make your meaning stronger

或absolutely等單詞來強調您的感受。舉例來說 "我真的很喜歡拍照"

or weaker.

For example: "I really like taking photos."

"有時我享受慢跑"、"我真心討厭踢足球"。

"Sometimes I enjoy going jogging."

"I absolutely hate playing football."

Now it's your turn.

換您試試看吧！您能怎麼闡述呢？您能夠造出自己的句子嗎？ 好的, 既然您已經

What can you say?

Can you make your own sentences?

OK, so now you can say something about what you like or don't like doing.

Let's look at how you can add more details to your ideas.

First, let's say how often you do your free time activity.

For example: "I like playing sport.

"I absolutely hate going shopping.

"我超級討厭逛街，我一年只去一次或兩次"

"I really like taking photos, but I don't get the chance to do it often."

"我超級愛拍照，但通常沒有太多機會" 您呢？ 你通常多久從事休閒娛樂呢？
