Mary:

I read almost everything I can: books, magazines, newspapers. I go to the public library about twice a week. If you'd like to send me something, maybe books are my favorites.

Harry:

My wife and I have a big garden and she loves working in it. But the truth is that it bores me. My friends and my wife think I'm really bored, because I'm always listening to music. I go to concerts all the time. I love Mozart and all that classical staff.

Mike:

I don't really like video games and that sort of things. I prefer being outdoors, hiking or playing sports. I always go out with my family playing basket-ball all the time. I think most sports are pretty interesting.

Lisa:

I'm a free writer, and people think my job is easier because I don91 have to go to the office every dayAnd I don't have to deal with office politics (政治).But, you know, my job is very hard. When I have a problem, there is no one around to help me.

Victor:

My life is very stressful. In my working place, everyone is in a hurry and under the great pressureA lot of doctors are in great need, and there is always too much to do to save the dying patients.
