I’m almost 19 years old, and I finished my first year of university. I’m currently on
holiday, and I have a lot of free time. Having free time is nice, but the problem is
that when you are a student, you never have money. And when you have a lot of
free time, but you don’t have much money, it can get boring. Every morning I go to
the gym, and I read in the afternoons. But I still have a lot of free time. Going to the
gym takes me about two hours, including the road time and the post-gym shower.
And I usually read for one hour. Another activity that I do is watch documentaries.
I study history, and I love historical documentaries. I learn a lot from them. I watch
documentaries for one and a half hours four or five times a week. But those
activities are a small part of my day. When I’m not at the gym or reading, I get
bored, and I often play video games for hours. I enjoy playing video games, but I
don’t think it’s a productive activity. When I play for a long time, I feel bad. I’d like
to find more productive activities to do, but it isn’t easy. I live in a small town, and
there aren’t many things to do. Do you have any suggestions? What do you do with
your free time?

Every city in the USA has a mall or four. There are about 1,100 malls in the US.
These giant store-filled buildings are one of America’s greatest entertainment
options for teens and families. Mall of America in Minnesota is the largest mall. It
is so big that it has an amusement park in it, Nickelodeon Universe, with several
roller coasters! There are more than 500 stores in it, about 400,000m2 and about
12,000 people work there. But malls nowadays aren’t the same as they used to be in
the 80s and 90s. During those decades, teens would go to the mall and spend hours
shopping, playing video games at the arcade, or just hanging out with friends. It
was cool in the summer and warm in the winter. In those days, malls provided the
perfect source of shopping and entertainment for entire families. Nowadays, you can
still eat in the food court and go to the movies, but there aren’t many arcades left.
Millennials have their Xboxes or Ps4s, and they like shopping online, which is also
happening with more and more people from other generations. And as more people
shop online and play video games at home, fewer people go to the mall to hang out.
Hopefully, malls will remain one of the great American pastimes. But only time will
tell how people in the future will prefer to spend their time.
23. People like malls because...
a) it is a fun place to be.
B) it’s cheap c) there are so many of them.
24. Why is the Mall of America so famous?
a) Because it’s the official Mall of the country.
b) Because it’s in Minnesota.
c) Because of its size.
25. At the mall of America, you can...
a) visit the president of the USA. b) ride a rollercoaster. c) walk in a park.
26. What can’t people do at malls very much anymore?
a) Hang out with friends. b) Play video games.
c) Go for lunch.
27. Malls nowadays ... than in the past.
a) are bigger
b) are more popular c) have fewer entertainment options
28. Why are malls dying?
a) People prefer other options. b) They are too expensive. c) They aren’t
entertaining.
29. The future of malls...
a) is going to get better. b) is certainly going to be bad. c) is uncertain.

I’m so pleased you can come surfing in August! Paul, Rose and Kevin are coming
too, so there will be five of us. We’ve decided to return to New Sands for a couple of
days, because the surf board hire is so cheap there. I’m starting to think about
accommodation. We won’t camp again after last year! I hated staying in a tent in all
that rain! Kevin wants to hire a caravan. There are some nice ones with 3
bedrooms, showers and cooking facilities. The problem is, none of the caravan parks
take short bookings in the summer. The minimum stay is a week. It’s a shame
because there are several nice parks near the beach. There’s a hostel for young
people in New Sands. It’s the cheapest option after camping, and there’s a big
kitchen and dining room where we can cook. The problem is, accommodation is in
dormitories and I don’t really want to sleep with strangers. There are a few guest
houses in New Sands. Some have triple rooms, so we only need to book two rooms.
We’ll have to book soon if we choose that option, because many guest houses are
already full. The hotels in New Sands are too expensive, although I’d love to stay at
the Sunrise Pavilion with its large pool! The final option is to rent a cottage. I found
one. It has three bedrooms – a double, a single and a twin, so two of us would have
to share a bed! There’s a big kitchen diner with a microwave, washing machine and
dishwasher. The living room has a TV and DVD player. There’s just one bathroom,
but there’s a separate WC. There’s a nice garden too. The problem is, it’s 5 miles
from the beach.
Let me know which option you prefer. Cheers, Natalie
