Talking about your free time is a great way to start a conversation in English, or to find things in common when youre speaking to somebody.

谈论业余时间是用英语开启一段对话或在和他人交谈时找到共同点的好办法。
这节课结束时，你就能用英语清楚又自然地谈论你的业余时间和爱好了。
Part one: free time and hobbies vocabulary.
What words do you know for free time activities in English?
第一部分：与空余时间和爱好有关的词汇。
你知道哪些与业余活动有关的英语单词？
Some people prefer things you can do at home, like watching TV, reading, or cooking.
Other people like sports, like playing football, playing basketball, playing tennis, going swimming, going jogging, or going climbing, or maybe doing boxing, doing judo, or doing yoga.
一些人更喜欢能在家里做的事情，比如看电视、看书或下厨。
其他人喜欢运动，比如踢足球、打篮球、打网球、游泳、慢跑或爬山、或者拳击、柔道或瑜伽。
Of course, many people prefer more social activities, for example, hanging out with your friends, relaxing with your family, or going shopping.
Or maybe you like to do something more creative, like taking photos, painting, or writing stories or writing a blog.
当然了，很多人更喜欢偏社交性的活动，比如和朋友们出去玩，和家人一起放松，或者购物。
或者你可能喜欢做些更有创意的事情，比如摄影、绘画或写故事或写博客。
What about you? What kind of free time activities do you prefer?
你呢？你更喜欢哪种业余活动？
Lets look at how you can talk about free time activities and hobbies which you like.
Part two: what do you like doing?
我们来看看如何谈论你喜欢的业余活动和兴趣爱好。
第二部分：你喜欢做什么？
"In my free time, I like. . ." What could you say here?
“在我的业余时间，我喜欢......”你在这里的空白处能填上什么呢？
"In my free time, I like playing basketball."
"In my free time, I like relaxing with my family."
“在我的业余时间，我喜欢打篮球。”
“在我的业余时间，我喜欢和我的家人一起放松。”
"In my free time, I like reading books."
Can you see a pattern here?
“在我的业余时间，我喜欢看书。”
你看到了这里的模式吗？
In every sentence, after like, we use a verb plus "-ing".
Can you make a sentence?
在每个句子中，我们都在 "like" 后面用了动词加 "-ing" 的形式。
你能造个句出来吗？
What do you like doing in your free time?
But just using "like" can be repetitive and boring.
你在你的业余时间喜欢做什么？
但是只用 "like" 未免有些重复无聊。
So what other verbs can you use?
Well, you could use verbs like "love", "enjoy", or "hate".
那么还能用什么动词呢？
你可以用 "love" 、"enjoy" 、"hate" 等动词。
For example: "I love going swimming."
"I enjoy watching TV."
举个例子：“我爱去游泳。”
“我喜欢看电视。”
"I hate going shopping." Can you see the same pattern?
“我讨厌逛街。”你看到了这同样的模式吗？
After all of these verbs, you need to use a verb with "-ing".
You can also add words like "really", "sometimes", or "absolutely", to make your meaning stronger or weaker.
在所有这些动词后，你要用动词的 "-ing" 形式。
你还可以加上像 "really" 、"sometimes" 、"absolutely" 这样的词来加强或减弱你的意思。
For example: "I really like taking photos." "Sometimes I enjoy going jogging."
举个例子：“我非常喜欢拍照片。”“我有时候喜欢慢跑。”
"I absolutely hate playing football." Now its your turn.
“我讨厌透了踢足球。”现在轮到你了。
What can you say? Can you make your own sentences?
你能说什么呢？你能自己造个句子出来吗？
OK, so now you can say something about what you like or dont like doing.
Lets look at how you can add more details to your ideas.
好了，现在你会讲自己喜欢或不喜欢做的事情了。
我们来看看怎么给你的想法增加更多细节。
First, lets say how often you do your free time activity.
For example: "I like playing sport.
首先，我们来说说你做业余活动的频率。
举个例子，“我喜欢做运动。
I play football every Tuesday evening."
"I absolutely hate going shopping.
我每个周二的傍晚都踢足球。”
“我讨厌透了逛街。
I only go shopping once or twice a year." "I really like taking photos, but I dont get the chance to do it often."
我每年只逛一次或两次街。”
“我非常喜欢拍照片，但是我没有机会经常这么做。”
What about you? How often do you do your hobbies?
你呢？你多长时间进行一次你的兴趣爱好？
You can use these phrases to help you talk: "every. . ."
For example: "every weekend", "every Saturday afternoon", "every day".
你可以用下面这些短语助自己一臂之力："every..."。
举个例子，“每周末”、“每个星期六下午”、“每天”。
"Once or twice a. . .", for example: "once a week", "twice a month", "three times a year", and so on.
Can you make some sentences like this about your free time and hobbies?
"once or twice a..."，举个例子，“一周一次”、“一个月两次”、“一年三次”等等。
你能造出一些像这样的句子来描述你的业余时间和兴趣爱好吗？
How often do you do your hobbies?
Next, lets add some details about where you do your hobby or free time activity.
你多长时间进行一次你的兴趣爱好？
接下来我们增加一些细节描述你进行你的兴趣爱好或业余活动的地点。
For example: "I like playing sport.
I play football every Tuesday evening at the park near my house."
举个例子，“我喜欢做运动。
我每周二的傍晚都在我家附近的公园踢足球。”
"I enjoy having coffee with my friends.
We go to a cafe in the city center once or twice a week."
“我喜欢跟我的朋友们一起喝咖啡。
我们一周去一两次市中心的一家咖啡厅。”
"I really like taking wildlife photos in the forest, but I dont get the chance to do it often."
You can see that our answers are getting more detailed.
“我非常喜欢在森林中拍摄野生生物的照片，但是我没有机会经常这么做。”
你可以看到我们的回答正变得更加详细。
When you speak, you should always try to add some details to your ideas like this.
It will make your English sound more interesting and more natural.
你在讲话时应当经常像这样试着往你的想法中增添些细节。
这会使你的英语听起来更有趣，更自然。
What about you? Can you add some details like these to your sentences?
你呢？你能往你的句子里加些像这样的细节吗？
Pause the video, practice. Try to make some sentences.
暂停视频，练一练。试着造几个句子。
Say them out loud, practice a little bit. OK.
Next, lets look at giving background information, especially if you have an interesting or an unusual hobby.
大声把它们说出来，稍微练习一下。好了。
接下来我们看看给出背景信息，尤其是如果你有一个有趣或不同寻常的兴趣爱好的话。
You can talk about when and why you started doing it.
For example, "I started playing tennis when I was 10."
你可以讲讲你什么时候以及为什么开始做这项活动。
举个例子，“我十岁的时候开始打网球。”
"Ive been learning to paint for six months now."
"I decided to do yoga because I wanted to be healthy."
“我现在学画画学了六个月了。”“我决定做瑜伽是因为我想变得健康。”
"My French friend got me into climbing."
In the last sentence, the phrase, "My friend got me into something," means that your friend introduced this activity to you, and now you like it.
“我的法国朋友让我喜欢上了爬山。”
在最后一个句子中，"my friend got me into something" 这个短语的意思是你的朋友把这项活动介绍给你了，现在你喜欢上了它。
What can you say about your hobby?
Can you use some of these phrases to talk about yourself?
你对你的兴趣爱好有什么可说的？你能用这些短语来谈论你自己吗？
For example, "I started climbing when I was living in Russia.
Ive been climbing for about eight years."
举个例子，“我住在俄罗斯的时候开始爬山。
我已经爬了大概八年了。”
"I also recently decided to do yoga because I wanted to be more flexible."
"When I was younger, my dad got me into photography."
“我最近决定做瑜伽是因为我想让我的身体变得更有柔韧性。”
“我小时候，我爸爸让我喜欢上了摄影。”
What about you? What are your examples?
你呢？你有什么例子？
Finally, lets look at how you can add some descriptive words to say why you do or dont enjoy something.
For example, "I like climbing because its really exciting."
最后我们来看看如何添加些描述性文字来说明你为什么喜欢或不喜欢某事。
举个例子，“我喜欢爬山是因为它非常刺激。”
"I love doing yoga because its so relaxing." "I really like writing stories because its creative, and I like using my imagination."
“我爱做瑜伽是因为它非常放松。”“我非常喜欢写故事，因为它很有创意，而且我喜欢运用自己的想象力。”
You can also use negative adjectives to talk about things you dont like.
For example, "I dont like going jogging because its tiring."
你还可以使用负面形容词来描述你不喜欢的事情。
举个例子，“我不喜欢慢跑是因为它太累了。”
"I hate watching TV because I find it boring."
"Ive been trying to learn to paint, but its too hard."
“我讨厌看电视，因为我觉得它很无聊。”
“我一直在试着学画画，但是太难了。”
Why do you like your hobbies?
What are some activities you dont like doing?
你为什么喜欢你的兴趣爱好？
你不喜欢做的活动有哪些？
Can you say why you dont like them?
Try to make some sentences and practice using this language.
你能说你为什么不喜欢它们吗？
试着造些句子并练习使用这门语言。
OK, now its your turn to speak.
Lets try using everything weve looked at to make a longer answer.
好了，现在轮到你说了。
我们来试试把讲过的内容都用上，写一个比较长的回答。
For example, "I really like playing tennis.
I play every weekend at the park near my house.
比如，“我非常喜欢打网球。
我每周末都在我家附近的公园打网球。
Sometimes I play with my brother, or sometimes with a friend.
My brother got me into it because he loves sports, and he needed someone to play with.
有时候我和我哥哥一起打，有时候和朋友一起。
是我哥哥让我喜欢上网球的，因为他喜欢运动，而且需要有人跟他一起。
I didnt like it at first because it was hard, and I lost all the time.
But now, I enjoy it, especially when I beat my brother."
我起初并不喜欢，因为它很难，而且我一直输。
但是现在我很喜欢，尤其是我打败我哥哥的时候。”
OK, lets do one more sample answer. "I love taking photos.
好了，我们再来看一个回答范例。“我爱拍照片。
Once or twice a month, I go to different areas of the city and look for interesting pictures to take.
Ive been interested in photography since I was young, when my dad got me a camera for my birthday.
我每个月会去一两次城里的不同地区，寻找有趣的拍摄素材。
我从小就对摄影感兴趣，那时我爸爸送了我一台照相机作生日礼物。
I like it because its creative, and I can express myself through my pictures.
Anyone can use a camera, but you need to use your imagination to find good pictures."
我喜欢它，因为它很有创意，而且我能通过我拍的照片表达自己。
任何人都会用照相机，但是你需要运用自己的想象力才能发现好照片。”
Now, can you talk about your free time? What do you like doing?
现在你能讲一讲你的业余时间吗？你喜欢干什么？
Where do you go, and how often? When did you start doing this hobby, and why?
你去哪儿？多长时间去一次？你什么时候开始进行这项兴趣爱好的？为什么？
And, why do you like or, perhaps, dislike this activity?
Try to talk for at least 30 seconds.
还有，你为什么喜欢或不喜欢这项活动？
试着至少讲到30秒。
Give lots of details.
