Reading: Leisure survey

We asked 100 people between the ages of sixteen and thirty this question. Which of leisure activities do you enjoy doing?

Many people think that young people nowadays don’t get enough exercise. But the survey shows that isn’t true: only 11% say they like playing video games while 28% go for a run or go to the gym at least once a month.

It seems that people still like going to the cinema when they want to watch a film. 46% say they go to the cinema more than once a month.

There are two activities which everybody – or nearly everybody – says they do. Everyone who took part in the survey says they read a newspaper or magazine and 93% say they go for a walk – though they don’t say if it’s a long walk!

Going to a restaurant was one of the most popular leisure activities, according to the results of the survey. 64% of people say they regularly eat out.

It seems that many more people like listening to music than playing it. 71% say they regularly listen to a radio, but only 8% say they can play a musical instrument.

Here are the results:

playing video games going ________/________ going to the cinema reading a _____/________ going for a ________ going to a ________ listening to the _______ playing a ___________

________ 28% ________ 100% 93% ________ 71% ________
