You are going to give a talk about holidays. You will have to start in 1,5 minutes and speak for not more than 2 minutes (10-12 sentences). Remember to say:
— which holiday you like best;
— what modern teenagers usually do in summer;
— why some people prefer to travel during their holiday;
— what your idea of an ideal holiday is.
You have to talk continuously.
Russian students have 4 holidays a year. Autumn and spring holidays are very short, but winters are a little longer and usually connected with the New Year celebration. Summer holidays are the longest. They are my favourite, as they last three months. I have a lot of free time and can do various things. I sometimes prefer travelling and going on excursions with my friends.
There are a lot of things modern teenagers usually do in summer. The majority of my friends travel with their families, visiting the places of interest and having a chance to learn a lot of new things and people.
I know that travelling is one of the most wonderful ways of spending your free time. People do it not only for a change, but also for educational purposes.
However, some people prefer staying at home and find different ways of entertainment. My friends also like to sit on the coach at home and watch films. By the end of our summer they can talk about a huge amount of films and TV series.
My ideal holiday can seem quite unusual. I like to spend my summer at my grandparents, where I can go to the forest, pick mushrooms and berries, go swimming in the lake. I feel happy when I can spend my holiday in the country and enjoy the fresh air.
