I’m keen on doing DIY (do-it-yourself).
(Mình thích tự làm đồ dùng.)
1. Listen and read.
(Nghe và đọc.)
Tom: Hi, Trang. Surprised to see you. What brings you here?
Trang: Oh, hello Tom. I'm looking for a knitting kit.
Tom: A knitting kit? I didn't know you like knitting.
Trang: Actually, I'm keen on many DIY activities. In my leisure time, I love knitting, building dollhouses, and making paper flowers.
Tom: I see. So, you like spending time on your own.
Trang: Yeah. What do you do in your free time?
Tom: I'm a bit different. I usually hang out with my friends. We go to the cinema, go cycling, or play sport in the park.
Trang: You love spending free time with other people, don't you?
Tom: That's right. By the way, would you like to go to the cinema with me and Mark this Sunday? There's a new comedy at New World Cinema.
Trang: Yes, I'd love to. Can I ask Mai to join us?
Tom: Sure. Let's meet outside the cinema at 9 a.m.
Tạm dịch:
Tom: Chào Trang. Thật bất ngờ khi thấy cậu. Ngọn gió nào đưa cậu đến đây thế?
Trang: Ồ, chào Tom. Minh đang kiếm một bộ dụng cụ đan len.
Tom: Một bộ dụng cụ đan len sao? Mình không biết là cậu thích đan đấy.
Trang: Thực ra thì, mình thích những đồ dùng tự làm. Vào thời gian rảnh, mình thích đan len, xây nhà cho búp bê và làm hoa giấy.
Tom: Mình hiểu rồi. Vậy cậu thích dành thời gian một mình.
Trang: Ừ. Cậu thích làm gì vào thời gian rảnh?
Tom: Mình có khác một chút. Mình thường đi chơi với bạn bè. Tụi mình đi xem phim, đi đạp xe hoặc chơi thể thao trong công viên.
Trang: Cậu thích dành thời gian rảnh với mọi người đúng không?
Tom: Đúng rồi đấy. Nhân tiện thì, cậu có muốn đi xem phim với mình và Mark vào Chủ nhật không? Có một vở hài kịch mới ở rạp Thế giới Mới.
Trang: Đồng ý. Mình có thể rủ Mai theo không?
Tom: Chắc chắn rồi. Hãy gặp nhau ngoài rạp vào 9 giờ sáng nhé.
