1) Nowadays, I sometimes watch. Actually, I like to watchion sports especially soccer and NBAbasketball. When I was in high school, I used to frequently

iiwatch it nearly every week, but,

to be honest,I dont have enough time these days. I wish I had more free times from my

work.

2) Imiii afraid I hardly everivdo it. To be honest,I know its very good and everybody shouldhave enough aerobic exercise., I mean, it should not be less than 20 minutes per day and 5

days per week. I used to play football, basketball, and so on everyday when I was in high

school and I wish I could do it nowadays.

3) I suppose I should like it if I can do it, but I have hardly ever done it. To be honest, my wifecant cook also, I mean, we have to go out for dinner or pay for cooked food everyday. I

think cooking food together is interesting and I hope we will do it in the future.

4) To be honest,I dont know much about kinds of clothes. Actually, I hardly ever buy clothesmyself and my wife is the one

vwho buys it for me mostly these days.

1) I enjoy watching many kinds of sport including football, basketball, tennis, and so on, but, tobe honest, I have never bet because I have seen many people going broke because of

gambling gamblevi

.

2) I prefer to play than watch because playing sport makes me feel fresh. Its said that this isbecause aerobic exercise causes endorphin release

viireleasing. However, watching sport is

not totally useless. I mean, it could make people feel befun and I think its better than

watching a series on TV which has a its plot that isviiiusually insane and violent.

3) I remembered I did many things. Actually my school assigned all students to play one to twokinds of sports each year such as table-tennis, tennis, swimming, basketball, and so on.

Thatix

that meant all students had a physical activities at school. Moreover, some students

liked to play sport very much and played it in an extra-time such asx

in the early morning or

late evening which was before and after class, respectively.

4) Im afraid I really dont know which sport is most popular in my country. I guess it might befootball and I think it has not been changed

xiin the last 10 years. I guess it is

xiilike this

because nearly all schools here have football yards that give more chances for children to

play football. Beside this, I suppose therexiii

it might be havea difference between each part

of Thailand. For examplexiv

, a Thai ball game is thexv

most popular in the South of Thailand.
