Plan:1. What is a hobby?2. What types of hobbies are the most

favourite and popular?3. Is it really important to have a

hobby? Why (not)?

Hobby A "hobby" is defined as an activity or interest pursued for

pleasure or relaxation and not as a main occupation. A hobby is a recreation activity. Hobbies are as

various as the world of human interests and experience. A hobby includes an element of

exploration that gives the hobbyist a chance to discover the world and his abilities. A hobby

provides us with a means of expressing emotions and offers many opportunities to create a new world of entertainment. It satisfied our wish for learning and

stirs the imagination.
