📖 Unit 1: Leisure Activities - Reading lớp 8

Dear Nick,

I'm so happy to receive your email. Now I'm going to tell you about my leisure activities.

It may sound strange, but the leisure activity I like best is volunteering. There is a volunteer club in my neighbourhood. Last year I took part in one of its programmes. I really enjoyed the activities, so I decided to become a member. Our volunteer club mostly helps the elderly in our neighbourhood. We go to their homes and help them with their housework. We also talk and read books to them.

Besides volunteering, I also love drawing and doing DIY. I can make paper flowers and flower vases from used bottles.

What about you? What do you like doing in your free time? Tell me.

Best wishes,

Minh
