How often do you spend time with your family?
I try to spend time with my family as much as possible. On weekdays, we usually have dinner together, but on weekends, we often go out for activities like shopping, hiking, or simply relaxing at home. I value spending time with them, as it helps strengthen our bond.

Task Card:
Describe a book you recently read.
You should say:
What the book is about
Why you decided to read it
How you felt about it
And explain whether you would recommend it to others.
Example Answer:
The book I recently read is called “Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind” by Yuval Noah Harari. It’s a fascinating non-fiction book that explores the history of human beings, from the emergence of Homo sapiens to the present day. It covers topics like the cognitive revolution, the agricultural revolution, and the impact of capitalism and technology on human societies.
I decided to read it because I’ve always been interested in history and how societies evolve. I had heard a lot of positive reviews, and I thought it would give me a better understanding of where humanity has come from and where we might be heading in the future.
I really enjoyed the book because it was not only informative but also thought-provoking. Harari presents complex ideas in an engaging way, making it accessible even for those without a background in history. It made me reflect on the world around me and our place in the bigger picture.
I would definitely recommend it to others, especially those who are interested in history, anthropology, or social sciences. It’s an eye-opening read that provides a new perspective on the development of human societies.

Topic: Reading and Books
Do you think reading is important? Why or why not?
Yes, I think reading is very important. It helps expand your knowledge, improves your vocabulary, and stimulates your imagination. It also offers a way to relax and escape from everyday life. I believe reading regularly can improve critical thinking and help you understand different perspectives.
Do people in your country read as much as they should?
In my opinion, many people in my country do not read as much as they should. With the rise of digital media, people often spend more time on their phones or watching TV rather than reading books. However, I think there’s a growing interest in reading, especially with the availability of e-books and audiobooks.
What kind of books do people in your country enjoy reading?
People in my country enjoy reading a variety of books, depending on their interests. Fiction is quite popular, with genres like mystery, fantasy, and romance being favorites. Many people also read self-help books, biographies, and books related to personal development. In recent years, books on entrepreneurship and business have gained popularity too.
How do you think technology has affected reading habits?
Technology has had both positive and negative effects on reading habits. On the one hand, e-books and audiobooks have made reading more accessible to people, especially those with busy schedules. On the other hand, the rise of social media and entertainment apps has made it harder for some people to find time to read, as they get distracted by these platforms.
